Great little beach side stay.
Pros:

The room had a kitchenette which we weren't expecting. The pool and gym were great. Staff were polite.

Cons:

Unfortunately, due to the hot pools being closed after the land slide, many tourist operations were closed, like the Stand Up Paddle Boards etc. Would have loved to go for a paddle, but couldn't.

A very nice 7-day stay in the water and sun.
Pros:

The upgraded swimming pool area is very nice now and we used it a lot. A disadvantage is many more people are using this area now compared to our past stays!
The Manager and cleaning Staff were very nice and helpful.

Cons:

There are a few slippery tile (old) areas and steps near the rear entrance door as you walk to the pool area that need replacing.

Dated and not great value for money
Pros:

The proximity to town and the beach

Cons:

It felt really dated. I think the location is really all that is good about the place. The walls were dirty and had markings on them. The balcony was sandy and felt like it wasn’t clean. The clothes aired was rusty. The mattress of the portacot wasn’t clean. The bedroom was really hot and uncomfortable. The signed was also really uncomfortable. I think that the price of the room is too high for what you’re getting.
