Exceptional
Pros:

Our stay was truly wonderful. The rooms were comfortable and spotless, and both breakfast and dinner were absolutely delicious. What stood out most was the exceptional hospitality from every member of the staff—their genuine care and willingness to go the extra mile left us deeply impressed.

On the night before my wife’s birthday, I asked management to help me arrange a surprise. The next morning at breakfast, the staff brought out a beautifully decorated cake and sang “Happy Birthday” to her. It was such a heartfelt gesture, and a moment we will cherish forever.

Thank you, Garden Court, for making our experience unforgettable. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

My Family Outing Review
Pros:

The fact that it's a walking distance from the beach and you get to feel the sea breeze while in your room.

Cons:

Just disappointed in the food which is the supper, everything was bland in terms of taste and spicy.
