Lovely place in a great location but make sure you are prepared for the food/drinks bill
Pros:

Lovely room with all you need included. Spa and Health club was very good. All staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Room rate was good as booked through Booking.com with genius discount

Cons:

Food and Drinks prices are not reasonable and due to captive audience there is no choice to eat elsewhere so be prepared for a hefty bill especially if you are on a budget
