Though the room was clean and reception friendly, the room was very disappointing. For a 4 star room it was extremely small, just above reception and overlooking the car park. Nothing like it looked in photos. Couldn't upgrade even with willing to pay more $ unless we wanted to stay 2 nights.

Great Stay. Great property

Really enjoyed the one night stay. Room was big for a studio. Very clean and well appointed. Outside setting next to pool was a bonus and good to sit and unwind with a beverage. Reception staff was welcoming and efficient. Didnt have to ask anything as all was explained. Would highly recommend.

It was so expensive for such an old delapitated room. Then they asked for a $200 bond for one night but i wont get it back for potentially three weeks. So a night in an old tiny room has currently cost me over $400. Wild

Beautiful view from the ocean view apartment and the location is excellent, however we found the apartment itself, although tidy, was not very clean. The glasses, plates, cutlery etc needed to be washed before use; not really what you want to be doing on holiday.
