Your feedback is very important to us, and we’re taking it seriously to ensure a better experience for all our guests moving forward.

When checking in , rooms were not ready.. They kept delaying check in..rooms were still being cleaned.. Once we were in , the villa was not very clean.. They were extremely understaffed. They did the best they could do with lack of staffing.

Dear Maria, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We truly appreciate your understanding and patience during your stay, especially given the staffing challenges we faced. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve, and we are grateful for your kindness in recognizing our team’s efforts. We hope to welcome you back soon and provide you with an even better experience. Warm regards,

Pretty good - nice big room, nice common facilities and gym; my only negative is the resort needs a little refresh - paint on walls coming off, mirror in bathroom old and stained etc.

Dear Michael, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the spacious room, our common facilities, and the gym. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the condition of some areas of the resort. Your comments about the need for a refresh, including paint and bathroom fixtures, are valuable and will be shared with our maintenance team as we continuously work to improve our property. We hope to welcome you back soon for an even better stay! Warm Regards, Reception Team

Shachar R. Families - 7/13/2025 Confirmed reviews ALL

We have enjoyed our stay at the hotel. We had a good time and appreciated the school holiday activities and the spacious villas. However, breakfast was lacking and we were not informed about our choices as Platinum members. Finally, the facilities are on the older side.

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We hope to welcome you back to our hotel very soon! Sincerely, Reception Team

An Unpleasant Stay and Future Concerns I originally visited to meet with the events planner, but due to the long drive, I decided to stay the night. Unfortunately, our apartment had a persistent, unpleasant odor. We initially thought it was just a stuffy smell that would dissipate, so we left the balcony door open before heading to dinner. However, three hours later, the smell remained. We contacted reception, and Tito promptly arrived to spray the room and offered us a different villa. Given the late hour, we opted to stay after he treated the room. Regrettably, the smell returned around 2 AM, causing me to become ill and I threw up. My husband and I were unable to sleep due to the overwhelming odor, and we had to open the balcony door again. The following morning, I reported the incident to reception and requested follow-up within a day or two, but I haven't heard anything since. I'm particularly concerned about this experience because we have a birthday party scheduled there in August, with six villas booked for guests, some of whom are traveling internationally. I would be very upset if they had a similar experience.

Dear Charlene, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While I wish you had a better experience, it is feedback like this that we learn from and use to improve. We work hard to deliver an exceptional guest experience, and it's apparent in this case that we fell short. If you give us a chance to earn back your trust, I can assure you that we will do our best to give you the great hotel experience that so many of our guests have grown so fond of. Sincerely, Reception team
