Checking in was incredibly easy. The clear instructions, sent directly to my mobile, were perfect for someone like me arriving late at night and leaving early in the morning. The room itself was very spacious with a very and a comfy bed. The view from the balcony was truly breathtaking. I'd highly recommend it as a place to spend some quiet time and just soak in the views.

The room was spotless; however, we had a problem with the water in the bathroom. It took us a long time to shower because, for some reason, the water would stop coming out, and we had to wait for it to start again.

The room was juat average, sliding door did not close properly and was very loud. Linens were slightly dirty, bathroom light was broken and didnt turn on, tv was broken and didnt work. Staff was very limited so couldnt even ask for help. The facility expected you to leave the dishes clean before leaving (otherwise a charge) however, no sink - we had to wash dishes in the bathroom sink and no supplies were prvided. Ants everywhere, door and bathroom were rusty. Plates and cutlery were limited. No instructions on how to use the pool facilities, we finally asked someone who told us there was a fob to access the pool (day 2). Views were lovely but thats about it. Pool was ok.

I found out upon arrival that the reception has been permanently closed. I managed to find someone who runs the facility who advised that all the check-in details were sent to me by email however, this message was never received. As there were no staff available through reception, my only point of contact was through the bar. Unfortunately, the bar staff were unable to assist with my queries and requests. No Wi-fi (as advised on their web site) No service on the room for my week long stay. The pool was closed for repairs and maintenance throughout my stay there. The evenings that I wanted to dine in the restaurant it was either closed (only open Wed - Sun) or not available on a Saturday night due to a function. Location is fantastic but unfortunately let down by a very dated and understaffed facility.

Firstly, the name of the resort does not match the booking site, so made it more difficult to find. Was told the restaurant would be open for dinner and it wasn’t. Not what you want to hear after a 12 hour drive. And thirdly, no one on reception when we checked out at 8.45 am. And no drop box for the room key.
