Had a great time and would stay there again
Pros:

Bed was ok but the room was hot, so needed to keep air con on in the main room
Pool & Spa = Spa was great, Pool was lovely once you got in, but is difficult to get in and out for myself and hubby as we both have keen issues could do with steps or ramp for access
Room was great and plenty of room.

Cons:

just the access to pool was hard for both me and hubby to get in and out needs a ramp or steps like in the spa.

Always a great place, we all love the resort and pool
Pros:

Clean rooms, excellent staff

Cons:

For us with young kids, the guest wifi doesn’t even run the digital tv for streaming services. Which in this day and age I think is essential when staying away from home.
Also the lack of utensils and kitchen wear, no tongs or scissors- not a deal breaker but an inconvenience
