"Lovely setting looking over the pool and palms. The room is dated and needs some sprucing up. The curtains were disgustingly dirty and had pin holes all through them. Otherwise comfortable. Great for families with all the kids facilities but noisy when kids run up the hall shouting at 6.00 in the morning."

"Welcoming friendly and helpful staff. Very clean apartment. Getting a little bit dated but spotlessly clean. All pots pans etc if you wished to do your own cooking. A couple of eateries and supermarket close by. Beach just across the road. Parking in designated area underground. Wifi good. It is a must if staying at this resort to try the hamburger with the lot from the fish and chip shop close by my husband said it is the best hamburger he has ever tasted. Many attractions and dining options all within a short drive."
