    We travelled here with our 2 young kids for 3nights. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the staff were so friendly and helpful. Our 4 year old son particularly loved the pool, the scooters, Dvds, spades that were free to use and the fact we were so close to the beach. The 1bedroom suited us fine this time but think we will opt for a 2bedroom apartment next time as it was a very tight squeeze to fit the portable cot in with us. We will definitely be back! Thank you!…
