I had a wonderful holiday overall, with a fantastic pool area and friendly staff always eager to help. The cleanliness was impressive, but the dining experience could definitely use improvement, as some meals felt repetitive and lacked variety. Additionally, the room quality varied significantly, and I had some initial issues with my first room which detracted from my experience. However, the location was excellent, just a short walk from the town and beach.
