I have to say we simply loved our room. Impressive entry, huge bed, MASSIVE bathroom (with bathtub, separate shower and double sinks) and a small "balcony" with access to the gardens, and from there to the pool and restaurant. The staff was lovely (specially all the waiters and waitresses I must say), we were received with glasses of sparkling wine, and enjoyed the many swimming pools -and the pool bar- from day 1. The hotel might not have direct beach access, but you are just a short walk away, and they also offer transfers a few times a day. Regarding the food, the breakfast was WONDERFUL to say the least, but we weren't huge fans of the buffet dinners - but NO WORRIES - there's some lovely restaurants just down by the beach. What's not to love about this place? I would recommend it in a minute :)
