נהדרת.
Pros:

השירות מעולה, הרצון לעזור ולספק היה יוצא דופן. החדרים גדולים, חוף הים מדהים, הבריכות ובקיצור כמעט הכל יוצא מהכלל.
הברים בבריכה, הבר בלובי שפתוח 24 שעות. ספורט ימי בשפע. בקיצור מעולה!

Cons:

הארוחות היוה החלק החלש יותר במקום הזה. לא בדיוק לחיך הישראלי. די חוזרות על עצמן. שום דבר לא היה וואו...במקרים מסוימים אפילו הוגש אוכל מסוים של יום אתמול או חזרה מלאה שלו יומיים רצוף

Experiência incrível
Pros:

A comida é excelente, buffet variado com inúmeras opções; limpeza tanto dos quartos quanto de todo o resort impecáveis; os funcionários são educadíssimos e a praia do resort é muito boa. Fizeram até uma comemoração de aniversário para meu marido com bolo e um vinho de presente. Foi tudo maravilhoso. Com certeza me hospedaria lá novamente.
