My stay at the resort was quite enjoyable! The accommodation was spacious and modern, with a lovely view of the surroundings. The highlight was definitely the pool area, which was very relaxing. However, I found the dining options to be lacking, especially during breakfast, and the Wi-Fi was a bit slow at times, which was inconvenient.

I had a lovely stay at this resort spa, which is beautifully positioned right by the beach and offers stunning views. The rooms were spacious and clean, providing a comfortable retreat after a day of relaxation. While the dining options were decent, I felt they lacked a bit of variety, especially at breakfast. The facilities, including the pool area, were enjoyable, but the Wi-Fi situation was a letdown since it costs extra.
