Not worth premium prices 5 star prices 4 star experience
Pros:

A week in a 2 bedroom absolute suite. Unfortunately falls well short of expectations. The 2 bedroom suite is actually a one bedroom suite with an adjoining room, perfectly functional but tired and in need of tlc. That is pretty much the same as the whole resort it’s fine but overpriced and in need of investment. The haute living experience is soulless with a tiny selection of wine, a soft drinks pump and a beer / Aperol tap, hardly ever staffed and with a sparse selection of snacks. Not worth the upgrade. Pool area is fine without being anything special. Buffet is good at breakfast but not great in the evenings for €45 euros a head but only €20 euro resort credit on half board package if you eat ala carte. Italian is nice, steak and sushi ate twice first time really good second time inedible steak sent back twice and ultimately credited. Service is nothing like as slick and consistent as you would expect for the price and nowhere close to a one and only or Ikos. Location is very convenient however. Summary top price that doesn’t deliver top value, you are paying premium 5 star prices for a good 4 star experience. Will not return as many better premium options in Europe.

Lovely resort but some rooms need refurbishment
Pros:

We recently stayed at the resort and were disappointed with the room we were given a 2br apartment which was most definitely not 5* The hot and cold water was temperamental, air con grilles broken, stained furniture, broken outdoor terrace and the room was dark and smelt musty. We were offered an upgrade at an extra cost which we had no choice but to accept. We did feel for a 5* hotel we shouldn't have been provided with a room which was more 3* to start with. The upgraded room had no water issues or the other problems we encountered previously but still lacked 5*
As a resort the pool areas the restaurants and the grounds were very clean and definitely what you expect of a 5* hotel. We ate at the restaurants and they were all very good and the staff very friendly. The lagoon pool was perfect for the younger children and was warm. Most of the pool staff were really friendly and Akash went out his way to remember our daily drinks orders and ice creams for the kids.
The kids enjoyed the football and ping pong tables and soft play in kids club.
The location is perfect right on the marina with a few minutes walk and also not far to the beach.
