“Beautiful garden and pool area, kindly staff.”
A very beautiful hotel complex with a well-maintained garden and beautiful pool. The staff is very helpful and kind. The pool bar staff are excellent, really great people. The food is varied, and the waiters are also very lovely. The garden is wonderful, and the presence of the little monkeys is a great touch. Everything was very clean. Perfect! The beach is amazing.
