lovely spot

had just spent a week before coming here with no contact with tv, broadband etc,, and you wont get any of that here either! lovely spot, but could've done with some home comforts like it was meant to have, the girl at reception was perfect, always smiling, helpful, but nothing worked, tv, no internet at all for the entire week, however, such a lovely spot and a lovely pool, breakfast was bizarre, mash potato, runner beans, somosa & cake, although didnt have any of that the last few days as we were the only ones there so nothing cooked, but we did get egg!

Customer Service, attentiveness

Hotel staff really need to learn the food menu and many other things. The staff is genuinely nice but their knowledge of customer service, including very easy things is very low. Further, if there is a problem with Expedia bookings customers should be treated as customers and not as a burden.

Hotell på paradisstrand

Service i receptionen var jättebra. Städning var grundlig och väl utförd. Ägaren var närvarande och mån om gästerna. Det som drar ner är service och utbud i restaurangen. Allt som står på menyn finns inte. Dock är maten som serveras ok/god. Härliga bad i varm ocean. Stranden fin och ett mindre staket gör att strandförsäljare inte tillåts komma in bland solstolar och bord.
