Pros:

The staff were all very friendly and welcoming, happy to help and look after the guests. The hotel was clean and tidy (though some areas need a little renovation). The food was tasty and well cooked. I actually was pleased they didn't lay on a huge buffet when there were fewer guests, as it would have been a waste of food. My room was clean, spacious, comfortable, and quiet (I was not on the garden side).

Cons:

In the main restaurant it was very expensive, including the buffet, and there are few vegetarian options.

Beautiful hotel, quite romantic, attentive staff, great food and a world class experience all round
Pros:

The ocean views, the food, the friendliness of staff and the facilities were top tier

Cons:

Obviously by no doing of theirs but I was not aware that there is a club near by and we could hear the music all the way up in our hotel room, which was quite irritating as it only stopped at round about 4 AM, so in that respect I could not have a good nights sleep
