Amazing service and comfortable room
Business travel. Room: Spacious and clean room, with fantastic service. Service: Staff were extremely attentive, friendly, and accommodation. Could not fault the service at all. Breakfast spread: good variety, food taste was probably ok-ok at best. Gave the breakfast a 6/10 rating and the chef came knocking at my door to offer a note of apology with a cake and fruit platter. I didn’t feel this was necessary, but appreciated the gesture very much. Again a testament to the staff’s commitment in providing top notch service. Hotel compound: the resort felt a bit ‘sterile’ to be honest, and the garden between the main building and the beach felt redundant. Overall a very comfortable stay, and once again can not commend the staff more for their attentiveness and warm hospitality.
