Overall it was a lovely stay. However, the food was very disappointing, cheap and inedible, but charged at expensive prices. Outside of this we’d be happy to visit again. Seemed like a very family friendly resort.

Disappointing stay as resort is very run down, rooms were sub standard for the price, not even a saucer for a tea cup, no cutlery. Poolside tables and lounge old and ratty, ants in the room. Did not feel like resort living unfortunately.

While the room was adequate, had supplied minimum in the way of sugar and milk. The biggest downer was the Sola restaurant. No table service, the floor was dirty with food scraps, and they got the food order wrong and took over 40 minutes to be served.

Even though the property is old, it still presents pretty well. They need to add another pool so you can separate the kids from the adults. Adult pool and family pool. No seats available, couldn't access spa because of the kids and 2 days without towels. Not good enough for a resort. Also, the food is well below par, 3 out of 10. Food is served cold with little taste. If it was just a restaurant, it would go broke.
