I was really let down by my stay at this resort. The accommodation felt expensive for what we received, especially without access to a promised restaurant. The atmosphere was quite dull, and the cleanliness left room for improvement. On the bright side, the views from our apartment were lovely and the beds were comfortable, but overall, it didn't meet my expectations.

My family and I had a pleasant stay, enjoying the spacious rooms and clean environment. The location near the golf course and beach was fantastic, and we appreciated the nice shower and hot water availability. However, we faced some issues with noise from outside and the limited privacy of the ground floor room. Overall, it was decent but not without its hiccups.

I was really looking forward to my stay, but it turned out to be quite disappointing. The location wasn't as convenient as advertised, with a long trek to the beach and the lack of a proper dining experience was really frustrating. The rooms were spacious but felt outdated and poorly maintained. I had high hopes for a relaxing weekend, but instead, it felt like a letdown for both service and amenities.
