The place was spacious and view was great. The pool and spa was small and often taken up with other guest. The balcony’s all face the pool so can be noisy at times. Location was great, walkable to beach and restaurant's. Overall was a great place to stay. Only thing that let it down was noise and business of pool area

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.
