Mixed feelings about the hotel, it was my second time and fifth hotel on the island. It's a fine hotel but you wont feel pampered. +Perfect location if you want to stay at station 1, about 20 min walk to all the fun. The room is huge, clean and beautiful. They left good night wishes and cookies in the room every night which was a very nice touch. - check out at 11; the fruit at breakfast was given out in portions rather than buffet style which I found really strange and cheap for this type of hotel. There was no water dispencer and the water wasnt offered at the beach as well as at the restaurant when I stayed there for lunch and dinner. Even though it's offered in all the restaurants on the island and even cheaper hotels have water dispensers in the halls or rooms.

Airport transfers to and from Cardiff were seamless. After exiting the arrivals hall, turn right into the covered corridor and wait for your arrival with a sign. The service was very attentive; every staff member greeted us proactively. Room service was available. The room was fantastic, with toilets and showers on both floors, and a small outdoor pool. However! A word of caution: this room type is on the third floor, and there is no elevator. Traveling with elderly people should be approached with caution. Climbing stairs every day is exhausting, and they may not want to leave the house.

The hotel is huge. It's a bit of a walk to the breakfast area. Also, this area is exclusive to hotel guests, as there's nothing else nearby. The beach is beautiful, but with so many guests, it feels a bit less private. The hotel's luxury feels more Western than Asian, which was a bit over-the-top for me and made it hard to relax. Considering the price, I didn't think it was particularly good, so I probably wouldn't stay here again.

Our first night was in a large suite, which was lovely. We then moved to a standard room, which was also perfectly fine. The hotel's location is excellent; it's quiet yet only a 10-minute walk to D'Mall and Station 2. They offer airport transfers, which is super convenient and reasonably priced. Plus, there are plenty of tricycles right outside the hotel, making it easy to get around.

When I first arrived, I found the hotel wasn't as stunning as I'd imagined, mainly because the architecture felt too modern and not like a resort. However, the hotel's excellent service soon became apparent. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, which made the vacation feel more like a true getaway. Breakfast was simply amazing. The pool connects directly to the beach and the ocean, and the hotel even has its own private bay. There are three restaurants at the hotel, and the food was outstanding and reasonably priced. The rooms were also quite good. The hotel offers airport transfers, but they're a bit expensive. The location is somewhat remote; while the hotel does provide shuttle service to D'Mall, the frequency is limited.
