Rapport qualité prix non conforme
Pros:

L’hôtel est bien décoré, les chambres sont grandes et toutes face a la mer. Personnel très gentil.

Cons:

Il y avait une mauvaise odeur dans la chambre qui nous a gêné toute la nuit. La plage en face de l’hôtel est en travaux en ce moment et l’hôtel est plutôt assez loin du centre avec des taxis/ Uber très cher (plus cher qu’en France)

Pros:

room was big and good , pool area was ok but beds were taken too often, breakfast was ok but could be improved with variety and the egg station was in a differnt area outside which was akward , the buffet area could be larger

Cons:

the gym was dated with as in the weights machines were not modern and not enough of them to do a decent work out ,didnt have a seperate bar with a cool vibe, also didnt notice a differnt restaurant maybe they did have

Amazing experience with one icky thing
Pros:

Fantastic all around! From the breakfast, the service, to the incredible upgraded room. The pool was amazing!

The one icky thing was when we wanted to bring our couple friends up to hang out with us, we were told they weren’t allowed in our room whatsoever, and if we wanted them to hang at the pool we needed to pay 100 dollars. Didn’t make any sense.

Otherwise my honeymoon with my wife was PERFECT.

Nice hotel
Pros:

Great location. Beautiful hotel. Beach pretty much off limits due to construction. Staff not the most helpful. Had issues checking in even though I had pre called the hotel, IHG customer service and even written to advise of check in instructions.
