Some of the staff was very rude (in particular the woman working at the bar, who scoffed when we arrived and asked for water for our kids who were extremely thirsty). Unreasonably rude and cold. Lots of ants in the bathroom as well.

Das Resort ist wirklich liebevoll angelegt und bietet verschiedene Möglichkeiten zum Erholen (SPA Bereich, Pool...). Wir waren mit einem Mietwagen vor Ort, dies würde ich jedem empfehlen, da die Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und der Strand so deutlich besser zu erreichen sind. Auch das Essen, sowohl Frühstück, als auch das Restaurant war hervorragend. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

As many have commented the resort has a unique combination of feature’s flexibility and staff. You can eat in or order a Bolt or Uber and go into one of the nearby villages to eat. If you eat in always try the chefs special of the day - in 2 weeks we were never disappointed. The staff at all levels are friendly courteous and speak good English. The villas are as beautiful as portrayed and we had one that looked onto a garden teeming with song birds! We found the location to be perfect - not more than a 10 euro cab fare to the local villages.
