Full review

We went here on honeymoon over the Christmas period. We spent a week in the resort (the journey was rather tiring for a week). The resort is generally very pleasant and a relaxing place to stay, however we had a room in the 'quiet' block which is away from the main pool area. Sadly a neighboring hotel played very loud music from midnight to 4am most nights, meaning that while it was very quiet and relaxing during the day we didn't get the best night's sleep.
Food ok -sometimes lovely, cocktails great, all incusive wine awful! Gala dinner was very nice. Lots of large-ish groups. Staff friendly (though more so to large tippers!). The ideal place to take lots of books and soak up the sunshine.
