Beautiful Pine Cliffs.
Pros:

A beautiful resort inside and out. Hard to not photograph every corner you walk around. The staff and facilities are marvellous. Very relaxed atmosphere even when busy. You never feel like the resort is packed. We stayed in the Residences which is like it's own little community..very cool area and probably has the best pool on the resort. Also its accompanied by O'Grill restaurant. We included breakfast in our stay and the breakfast every morning in O'Grill was 10/10. I would highly recommend the Residences especially for families.

Cons:

The resort is pricey. Expect to spend if you are eating out every night. The activities like padel/tennis all cost extra. The golf is a nice 9 hole course with some lovely views but again quite expensive for a resort golf course.

Never again
Pros:

Whilst the hotel is lovely and our suite is fab, we would never come here again. They have five swimming pools and we’re not particularlyin the school holidays but there are so many screaming kids around and no quiet area for adults. Such a shame. We did ask about an adults only pool but they don’t have one and seem to be completely disinterested in allocating one so we would never come here again. Our bad I guess, we shouldn’t have risked it but we play golf and it’s right on the course. Date of stay 9-16.6.26

The staff was really nice. Everthing was really clean. We were really happy with the stay.
Pros:

Everything really clean. The staff so nice, especially with my daughters when they came with chocolate and talked to my daughters. We really liked the swimming pool area. Cozy and nice. The restaurante also was really nice.

Cons:

Only that it was so big that it took quite long to get from a place to place. I was lucky my brother and his family were quite close but the breakfast was far away so we didnt buy breakfast for that reason.

Wonderful stay. Football camp was brilliant!
Pros:

Fantastic stay! Picturesque location with high standards and services.

The highlight of the holiday was the football/soccer camp for our 11 year old son. He plays at academy level and Ben and the coaching team at Estima Sports kept him challenged & sharp with quality drills while making sure he had fun.
