This property was great as we had the pool room with direct access to the pool. The staff were really helpful with any request...the only thing with our room was it was the first unit by the beach part of the pool and when it was busy everyone hung around our deck part of the pool drinking so wasn't very quiet and then not the properties fault but there was a concert on in the park next door that kept us up till midnight one night it was so loud but other than that it was a pleasant stay.

Not impressed
My tiny balcony had a view of a corrugated iron roof and wall to one side. The toilet was dirty and the basin tap fell off. I was not impressed. A terrace bar was closed so l asked if l could have a drink on the balcony of the restsurant. I was told l could not. When l informed the waitress another waiter said l could, she said well if someone else wants the table who is eating I'd have to move. I did have dinner but l won't be going back.
