8/10 Good
"Had a lovely time here, staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was lovely however not much of a queuing system so a lot of people was pushing in front and going where ever they pleased which was unpleasant. Our rooms was spacious and clean, however outside in the hallway was not nice or kept clean, bird poo was outside and wasn't cleaned at at all not a nice sight when walking to our room. The lift was also grimey, I think they need a good clean. Shuttle to the beach wss excellent, kids loved it. Overall stay was good, shame there isnt much around outside but if you're happy to stay in the pool and chill out this is the place for you"
