Amazing stay! The service was 10/10. We loved all the staff who were super helpful and friendly. Rooms were very big and spacious. A slight update in decor would be good and it's a little further to get to the main port and town but we loved our stay regardless.

Really enjoyed our stay at the property, nice area and as we had a car hire it was easy to get around as well as accessible parking. However staff could be more friendly, my partner and I seemed to be the only people of colour the week we stayed. However props to Nacho as he was very nice to us.
