I had a lovely stay at this resort spa, with clean and comfortable accommodations that made my experience enjoyable. The location was absolutely fantastic, right across from the beach and close to everything I wanted to explore. The dining options could use more variety, especially at breakfast. The facilities, particularly the pool, were well taken care of, but I did find that the Wi-Fi had a fee, which was a bit disappointing.

I had a wonderful time at the resort spa! The location right across from the beach was perfect for some sun and relaxation. My room was spacious and modern, making my stay quite comfortable. The dining options could use some improvement-especially at breakfast, as I found the choices limited. While the pool area was fantastic, I was a bit surprised that Wi-Fi came at an additional cost. Regardless, the overall value for money was decent.
