Relaxing
Pros:

Relaxing and tranquil garden areas

Cons:

The gym equipment didn’t work- all looks very nice in the window 2 treadmills a cross trainer and a bike.
However the two treadmills and cross trainer didn’t work. Reception sent a maintenance guy in and he also couldn’t get them to go.

Pros:

Nice spacious pools, very pretty grounds and a nice view of the lake from the main restaurant/pool area. The room was comfortable with everything we needed. We checked in early and checked out late, and the staff were very welcoming of us using the facilities whilst we waited.

Cons:

Some machines in the gym didn't work which was a shame. Lounging at the pool the drink service and making card payments was a little slow but the drinks were made very nicely so maybe this took the time.

Pros:

Cleanliness

Cons:

Room was really outdated, I don’t think this hotel is 4 star hotel, maybe 2 or 3 stars.
Also staffs are not very friendly, didn’t provide help for luggage etc.

Pros:

Staff is very friendly, the dinner buffet is delicious, the facilities have big potential

Cons:

The room is absolutely not worth the price, the furniture, finishes, etc. are extremely cheap. When I arrived the hotel didn't receive my booking and had to wait 1 hour before getting the room. In the afternoon there was quite some rubbish in the common areas (in the morning it has been cleaned up), the infinity pool is beautiful but there are just a few beach loungers available, the wood around the pool is about to break and it's in terrible conditions. Overall, there is a big lack of care of the facilities. It needs A LOT of restoration and improvement for the price they charge.

Nice hotel with infinity pool and sea views, not too far from airport!
Pros:

Spent one night at this hotel after our long flight. Was a busy hectic drive from airport due to roadworks taking approx 45 mins/one hour. We were very glad we weren’t driving!

Nice welcome at hotel with small drink and cooling face towel.

Staff friendly, room large, clean and well appointed.

Has swim up poolside bar and large restaurant with wide range of food options.

Massage/beauty treatments available and very well priced. We had a fantastic foot/leg massage which was very rejuvenating after our long flight

Perfect resort for relaxation and a base away from the hustle and bustle 😁
Pros:

Wonderful hospitality, lovely property with a relaxed casual feel.
After a week trekking through the mountains, this relaxation was exactly what was needed!

The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and amazing with our needs. Our daughter helped mixup cocktails and make jelly which she gracefully handed out to the hotel staff.

Excellent service overall. The rooms are comfortable, clean and well designed - we had a family deluxe room close to the large pool. The grounds and pool are kept in pristine condition, even after the huge downfall of rain.
