Unfortunately due to COViD amenities that includes bar and restaurant were closed. The resort needs a revamp and upgrade the the buildings. The cleaning of the rooms needs to improve as there was dirt/dust and rubbish under the beds.

The standard room was smelly, bathroom was aged and didn’t look clean, there was no internet connection in the standard rooms as was promised on the website. I had to ask for a different room to have internet access. I got upgraded but was initially ask to pay $15/daily extra for internet, but this got waved after I explained that Internet was advertised for every room. No toilet brushes in bathroom. No sink to clean coffee dishes. Bathroom sink was completely blocked and needed plumbing. Smoking are right in front of the entrance area doesn’t make a good impression. Location of Hotel was good. Staff was friendly and helpful. Good that room cleaning can be done by order, but the app to this wasn’t working. However, toilet would need cleaning every day since there is no toilet brush provided. Positive that there were 2 pool areas.

It’s quite a good location a few minutes walk to the beach & restaurants with plenty of free parking. The rooms are ok for the price paid just be careful entering the bathroom there is lip there which is a tripping hazard & forget having a bath it’s very small , the bed is extremely comfortable , the pools are lovely you can actually swim in them unlike quite a few hotels up this way that are freezing . The whole property is in need of an upgrade looking a bit tired , but as a base here to travel to other things it’s fine

Just a teeny bit not "Grand"

We booked in last minute on a holiday weekend, right off the bat the receptionist said sweetly, "We have a superior side and a standard side, and you're in the standard side". There must be a way of avoiding telling me I got the cheap room, ha. It was clean, quiet and pretty blaa. There were two semi doubles, one nice and firm and one that sank to the floor. Overall it was damp. On a positive note, the breakfast buffet was a REAL buffet and we couldn't complain, the "superior side" had a nice pool, fluffy towels etc. (as opposed to the threadbare thin ones we were given) I doubt if this will be our first choice again, but again, it was relatively clean and adequate.
