    kids club
    breathtaking views
    temperature control
    slow dining

    One simple answer, yes or no?

    The kids club activities were engaging, and we loved how our son enjoyed them! The breathtaking views from our balcony truly added a special touch to our family getaway.

    Room temperature adjustment was limited. it felt uncomfortable at times. Dining services were a bit slow, which could dampen the overall experience.

    beautiful pool
    clogged sink
    unavailable facilities

    The pool and beach areas are beautiful and relaxing.

    My bathroom sink clogged immediately upon check-in, which was frustrating. we were informed about unavailable facilities only when we arrived, making our stay less enjoyable. The room cabinets desperately need an upgrade, especially considering the price we paid.

    Beautiful resort, stunning pools, with a fantastic breakfast that included various options like roti canai and a skilled barista who made excellent cappuccinos.

    kids' club
    beach access
    snorkeling options
    cramped room

    Visited with family for a weekend. Beautiful kids' club with lots of engaging activities for children. Room seemed cramped with limited space despite the great view. Loved the beach access and snorkeling options nearby. Dining at the hotel fell short of expectations. Desserts were lackluster overall.

    beautiful pool
    delicious breakfast

    Great stay with friends! Our room was spacious and had a fantastic view of the garden and part of the sea. We enjoyed relaxing by the beautiful pool and exploring two courses designed by Ernie Els. The breakfast was delicious, with more choices than we could finish.

    stunning view
    nice atmosphere
    helpful staff
    awful smell
    major issue

    The deluxe sea view room had a stunning view, but we had a major issue with the toilet that made it smell awful. That definitely ruined our comfort. The space was okay, but the experience was marred by the unpleasantness. the hotel's atmosphere was nice, and the staff tried their best to help. Not a great sleep for our family, though.

    spacious interiors
    beautifully maintained pool
    engaging kids' club
    average food
    maintenance issue

    The stay was centered around a family weekend, and the Deluxe Garden View Corner Room offered a fantastic atmosphere with spacious interiors and a lovely view. The pool area was beautifully maintained, providing a relaxing spot for us to unwind. the food at Turmeric restaurant didn't impress much and was rather average, which was unexpected given the resort's reputation. we enjoyed the beautiful beach and the engaging kids' club activities for our children, but some aspects could be improved.

    great experience but staff needs more training

    The breakfast buffet spread is superb, offering a delightful range of options that catered to our family's preferences. The staff was polite throughout our stay, ensuring a pleasant atmosphere. the garden view from our deluxe room added a refreshing touch to our mornings, allowing us to relax amidst beautiful greenery.

    spacious room
    excellent spa

    Couple should think twice!

    The room was spacious, and you could just sit on the balcony and embrace the view, pure luxury. I engaged in the spa sessions that were great! They really knew how to pamper a man. Had me feeling like a new person afterwards.

    It wasn't budget-friendly! but once you factor in the service, it felt just okay.
