I think it should be updated with the current pictures as the current picture online does not reflect the true picture of the property. I prefer low-income earners rent the place and smoking should not be done in public.

The staff was friendly and the property looks like it was once gorgeous but it is rundown and needs a facelift. Shower tiles falling off and cutting out feet, mold and mildew in the shower, floors dirty and sheets questionable clean? Wouldn’t book again unless work was done. The area was beautiful and felt safe.

Disappointing. Bed linen not ironed. Duvet hanging out of duvet cover. No blanket provided. When I asked for one, it was damp. White curtains and blinds in bedroom and bathroom were black with dust. Only one towel each provided. Soap container used by many before us. Towel rail broken. No coffee provided, only many packets of sugar. Poolside furniture not clean. Definitely not 4 star!

We enjoyed our stay. Checking in was a breeze.. The pool is refreshing and clean. One staff member refused to help me with carrying a chair. Said her leg is painful... Staff members need to give guests some sort of privacy, they sat and watched us swim and passed comments it was uncomfortable. The room is nice and big. We really enjoyed our stay... Will be returning for sure
