After reading some of the negative reviews I was a bit worried about coming to the hotel. But don’t be put off…The hotel is wonderful and clean, the gardens are kept immaculate, and the food was delicious. Always so much choice. It is hilly around the resort, and in the heat, this could be difficult for some people. There isn’t much to do around the hotel, so if you want to venture out, book at taxi at reception. We were quite happy to have a relaxing time and not do too much. As as party of varying ages, it caters a lot for the little ones, but there isn’t much for teenagers to do. A pool table or table tennis at the main resort would be nice. There is one at the retreat which is a 5 min walk away, but this shuts at 6pm. There are lots of Bali beds which you can pay 24 Euros, not many people seemed to use them especially at the adult pool, it would make more sense to have extra sunloungers. The sunset bar can get busy as there are not many chairs/tables. But after 10pm, the restaurant area is available to sit in. I feel there should be more places to sit in the evening, a lot of people sat on sun loungers by the adults pool, as there wasn’t enough seating. The beach is nice, but sunbeds are expensive to hire. But you get the most amazing sunsets, we spent an evening on the beach and it was fantastic for photos. The T Beach bar, looks lovely, but as it’s payable, was always empty, it’s such a waste, as it looks lovely. The all inclusive covers branded drinks also, there’s only a few things not included which they tell you if you order one of them. We took water bottles to fill up and keep in our fridge in room, as they only provide 1 bottle for the room, and you can’t get more bottles. Towels can be changed daily at the pools, and when leaving make sure to hand the towels back and get the towel card to hand in at reception, or you may be charged for the towel. Souvenir shop is a 5min walk away, near the retreat, and there a a spar shop, about 10mins walk away got any bits you need. There is also a small shop at the hotel, but this is quite pricey and doesn’t sell much. Would recommend getting the TUI blue app on you phone. This lets you find times/ book activities and has lots of useful information on it. We paid for a TUI excursion to Ibiza town one morning and we’re picked up at 9.30, it wasn’t until we were on our way the rep told us most shops don’t open until lunchtime and we were being picked up at 1.30, so don’t book this if wanting to shop, but good for sightseeing. I would recommend going later in the day by taxi. Overall we had an amazing time, I would definitely come back.
