Excellent position. Across from the esplanade and beach. There is an Indian restaurant on the premises which seemed to have heaps of customers. Rooms were nice and clean. Staff friendly and helpful.

Mostly everything

The lack of shower gel (only 1 very small round soap) prefer shampiiabd conditioner separate..also had to remove our own rubbish..I would have thought that was part of cleaning if you say it is a "resort"

"Fine, we would stay there again."

8.0

Location was fine, beach access right across the road. Weather was terrible on this occasion, but otherwisw would be fine - restaurants very close by.

No spare blankets were in the room unfortunately.

"Quiet location on the beach."

10.0

The apartment was big and spacious. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could possibly want. There was a washing and dryer in the bathroom. The rooms can be accessed from the underground secured parking, then a lift to your floor. They even have trolleys to assist with your luggage. The best part was that the beach was right across the road, or you could use the pool.

There is nothing we didn't like about the room or the facilities.
