Negative Reviews

negative:

Food Uninspired

Although the food was fresh and tasty, presentation was uninspired and the buffet featured the same dishes daily. Guest said they would like a bit more variety in the menu but that the food choices did not detract for their overall enjoyment of the resort.

negative:

Room For Improvement

Guests remark that they had a fine time, but note that the waiters in the restaurant were not as friendly as they could be and seemed rushed and overly worked. The food is described as adequate but not outstanding.

negative:

Crowded Beach

Guests remark that they enjoyed the private sun-terrace and swimming pool, but that the waters on the beach were crowded as the resort adjoins a heavily used public beach.
