Magnifique hôtel, très propre, le staff est d’une extrême gentillesse. Point négatif est la nourriture, trop international, service long et ce n’est pas très bon. Il faut aussi noter que si on veut aller à la plage , il faut payer . Et le restaurant de la plage n’est pas bon du tout . Mais en dehors de ça c’était un super hôtel.

Service was slow, except at their main restaurant. Also, I really missed bacon and pork choices at breakfast. This resort caters to an international clientele. I feel they should have been made available.

The hotel is a bit dated. The food is mediocre. If you want a beach to swim in they do not have one. You will need to be transported to another beach where you will have to pay for seats. For the price you are better off staying in a hotel with a beach you can swim in. There are much better options in more convenient areas. This hotel is out of the way and not close to anything. Everything is at least an hour away or more. I would not stay at the hotel.

This is not a family friendly property. The playarea looks like it was never updated. The activities listed never happened. Hilariously, there was a total of 1 ONE highchair in the entire resort. While some of the staff did their best to accommodate out requests, most of them either did not know their tasks and the rest forgot their tasks.
