Our stay at the resort was mostly delightful, featuring beautiful beach villas and exceptional service that made our family vacation memorable. The views from our sunrise side villa were stunning, and the staff were incredibly attentive and friendly. However, the breakfast options fell short of expectations and some facilities showed signs of wear. Overall, it's a wonderful place for a family getaway, but there's room for improvement, especially regarding dining choices and facility upkeep.

While the food was generally good, the breakfast selection lacked variety and didn't meet the expectations of a five-star resort. More options, particularly healthier choices, would enhance the experience.

Overall, my stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable, with beautiful surroundings and a picturesque setting. The children loved the kids club, and the variety of activities kept them entertained. However, the pricing for food and drinks was steep, which took away from the overall value of the experience. A few minor disappointments included the tennis court being on a different island and the limited dining options that didn't quite meet the expectations for a resort of this caliber.

I had the most incredible time at this resort! The beauty of the island is truly breathtaking, with stunning views that made every day feel like a dream. The food was absolutely divine and the kids loved the kids club. My only concern was the cleanliness in certain areas, which could definitely use some improvement, particularly with pests in the rooms. Overall, it was a fantastic holiday that I would wholeheartedly recommend to families and couples alike.
