Jul 7, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Good location, worn out resort Looking at other peoples photos and reviews of different rooms in the resort, I think it was the best of the bunch however I would not recommend to book here again if you were a group due to the layout of the apartment and the resort facilities. The apartment is marketed as a 2 bed apartment but it’s more like 1 bed + study. The second bedroom is accessed via frosted sliding doors and has bifold screens from the main room to the second room. We managed to fit 2 portacots in the second room but I couldn’t imagine having older kids or even sharing with another couple there, you can hear everything. The apartment itself was nice, well maintained and had nice little touches (ie complimentary car, laundry powder) which was appreciated. The checkin was wonderful, they helped us to our room with all our luggage. The resort itself however is very tired. The pool deck was being refurbished while we were there so half of it was closed off. I would t have booked had I known the works were taking place. The pool was not heated. The resort interior looks tired. The tenancies down the bottom are half empty. This place would have been amazing 20 years ago! Next time I would book at a resort which had ordering food/drink accessible at the pool. Location was great, on the main strip right across from the beach and close to restaurants. ##### Rosie P.
