I had an incredible stay at this resort! The apartment was spacious, boasting stunning views of the ocean from both the balcony and the master bedroom. The kitchen was modern with all the amenities needed for self-catering, making it feel like a true home away from home. While the location was perfect, being just a short stroll from local shops and eateries, the dining options at the resort could use some improvement. Overall, it was excellent value for money, and I would absolutely come back again!

I had a wonderful stay at this resort! The two-bedroom unit I booked was massive and very comfortable, perfect for my work trip. The location is lovely, with everything close by, and the views from the deck were just fantastic. The amenities, like the pool and tennis courts, were great. On the downside, my room wasn't serviced during my stay, which was a bit inconvenient.

Our stay at this resort was extremely pleasant. We loved the spacious apartments, which were equipped with everything we could need and boasted beautiful views. The location made it easy to explore the area without needing to drive. However, we did face issues with outdoor noise during meals and towel service, which could have been better. Overall, a fantastic place to unwind and relax with family.
