  Fine Resort. Just fine.

  The word that comes to mind with our stay here was "fine". It was not great, not horrible, but just fine. This is the first trip we've taken to a resort with our kids. PROS: - I felt the staff was very nice and friendly. If you're friendly, they were friendly. The wait staff at restaurants were great. - There was plenty of room between the pools and beach. Even getting out there later in the morning, we found chairs and were able to find a place to hang out. - We booked snorkeling at the resort and the process to do that, plus the place we went to snorkel, was great. - We spent a day at the waterpark and we enjoyed that. It was less busy there than the pools, had decent food options and gave our teens something to do. If we had one more day, we woulda gone back there. CONS: - We arrived on NYE which was sorta a mess. They were planning a big party but it was down pouring, so that got canceled. Because of the party, the buffet was the only thing open and you had to have a reservation. We arrived at 5:30 pm with no reservation and we couldn't get in until 9pm. After traveling all day...we were HUNGRY. And room service was also closed. - The rooms are very dated. Things were touched up with paint, but you could see where it was touched up vs painting the entire thing (just paint the entire door!). Curtains were hard to open, the bathroom was very small and crusty. Things kinda smelled funky and our kids' room smelled like smoke bc the room next to them had smokers. Waterpark slides also need updating. - I felt food was always gone. We arrived at the buffet for dinner one night, thinking it opened at 6 (bc that's what it said) but when we got there, food was already gone and picked over. And once it's gone, it's not restocked (unless its like french fries). Want the brownies? Good luck. They're gone. The buffet on NYE was literally trying to find SOMETHING amongst the final leftovers. We enjoyed our time there. We were in a beautiful country, the rain stopped and we had fun. Would I book here again or recommend it? Probably not.

  Very good hotel with excellent staff, but a few things stop it feeling truly five-star

  Good hotel with great staff, but not ideal for families and doesn’t feel truly 4–5 star Overall, this is a nice hotel and we had a good holiday. It’s well maintained and recently refurbished, but for us it didn’t quite live up to a true four- or five-star experience, especially for families with young children. Positives • Staff are excellent — friendly, helpful, and very accommodating • Housekeeping was consistently great • Rooms are comfortable and refurbished to a good standard • Food is good with plenty of choice, including options for those avoiding processed wheat • Gardens and landscaping are beautiful (10/10) • Many repeat guests, which says a lot about the hotel Things that let it down • Strong focus on selling the “VIP / exclusive club” and timeshare • Staff regularly approach you around the resort asking for your room number • Invitations to “breakfast” or “lunch” are sales pitches • VIP golf carts constantly drive up and down the main guest footpaths • There is a perimeter road they could use instead • With young children, this doesn’t feel safe or relaxing • The hotel doesn’t really cater well for children: • No heated pool • No large shaded pool areas • Toilets, sinks, and urinals are all very high and not child-friendly • When asking for a step for children, staff said they couldn’t help • Beach food is left open to the elements and birds can access it • Entertainment is spread across multiple locations with limited seating — much harder than having it all in one theatre • Very few toilets around the resort, and some are often closed during the day • Decorative bed cushions and runners serve no purpose and often go from floor to bed, which isn’t ideal Bar service can also be slow due to limited bar areas. My average wait time for a drink was between 5 and 15 minutes. Sunbed availability can also be an issue. People often reserve loungers early by placing towels across them — sometimes two towels on one sunbed — both by the pool and on the beach. Be nice if the Hotel address sun lounges not sat in all day. Final thoughts This is a good hotel with excellent staff, but it doesn’t feel like a true four- or five-star resort — particularly for families with young children. With fewer sales tactics, better child-friendly facilities, and improved pool and entertainment layout, it could be much better.

  Great Family Holiday, Would highly recommend.

  We were very apprehensive before travelling, due to some of the negative reviews however, our fears were put to bed straight away. Stunning hotel with fantastic, clean grounds. Our room was great, clean, nice size, well stocked fridge, and set up ready for our arrival. Room was cleaned, tidied and restocked every day. Staff were incredible for our entire stay. We were regularly asked if everything was OK with our room and nothing seemed too much trouble. The only time I had an issue was when they didn't restock the water in the fridge one day, however this was sorted quickly with extra bottles supplied. Special thanks to Paulima, our concierge. Food was average but always something there for all of my family and we are 3 fussy eaters who all ate different meals. No sickness for anyone. We only tried Route 66 specialty restaurant which was OK but chose to eat in the buffet most of the time. Drinks were AMAZING! the staff at most bars were excellent, making our drinks to perfection virtually every time. I think we tried every one of the cocktails and didn't find one we didn't like. Never had to wait long and at times, we were on the beach and the bar staff would come round offering us cocktails. Really could not fault them in any way. Special thanks to Daniel and Ramon for their outstanding service our entire holiday. You guys were amazing! The pool area got quite busy at times with loud music but was a good atmosphere and the foam party was a nice touch if you have children. Swim up bar was useful. Beach was absolutely stunning, lots of sunbeds available. Great for an early morning stroll. No seaweed for most of the holiday, only a couple of days towards the end but staff out clearing it when required. Staff did a great job of keeping everywhere clean. Only went to one of the shows. Michael Jackson, which was brilliant and good entertainment for the evening. Booked a couple of trips, Catalina Island snorkeling and Monkey Land. Both were fantastic. Catalina Island was a bit of a bus journey but well worth it. I would highly recommend this hotel and would gladly return in the future.

  Worst hotel ever

  This is honestly the worst hotel I’ve stayed in it most definitely isn’t a 5 star and is falsely advertised as one the first room we were put in was damp and had loads of black mould growing up the walls so bad it has made us all ill chesty coughs and cold/flu symptoms we didn’t have pre holiday as well as itchy eyes and hayfever like symptoms when don’t have hayfever as well as mould covering our clothes and ruining them made a complaint to staff and was told it was because we turned the aircon off for one night!!! tape used to hold the wardrobe together tiles chipped and missing, gaps in the bathroom ceiling we complained to the TUI rep and finally got moved rooms after ten days living a mould infested room but the rooms are not the only problem here the food is terrible and dangerous things that are meant to be served hot left out on hot plates but allowed to go stone cold and things that are meant to be chilled like seafood just left going warm on the side not chilled fried food fried in dirty fat so it’s covered in little burnt black bits from days ago, communal areas are dirty and dangerous in some cases things like lights hanging out the walls in the pool exposing all the wires or held in with zip ties, tiles cracked and missing on stairs making them dangerous what looked like blood stains going up stairs sticky floors everywhere nowhere near enough staff on bar was taking my son ages to get served but not me then I heard bar staff joking that they served the women they liked the look of first which is honestly the least of the problems in this hotel they are only interested in selling you the ultimate leisure membership which costs thousands but they are the only people who get adequate service and I hope they get better rooms than the poorly finished dirty rooms we were given on both occasions room service often upto 2 hours late from the time you ask to arrive the only good things about this hotel is the steak and Brazilian restaurant but they can be hard to get into I’ve had to walk out all the others and the 2 ladies that serve at the sports bar are really Nice and actually know how to make the cocktails that are offered.
