My stay at the resort spa was wonderful overall. The rooms were spacious and featured a fantastic jacuzzi, making it a very relaxing experience. The staff were engaging and entertaining to talk to, which added to the enjoyable atmosphere. However, I did notice that the service level seemed a bit stretched since they were operating with half their usual staff. The dining options were decent, but better variety would have been appreciated. Still, the value for money was quite good, overall.

I had a pleasant stay at this resort, with clean and spacious rooms that offered a breathtaking view of the pool area and beach. The staff was nice and accommodating during my visit. However, the dining options were somewhat limited, which was a bit disappointing.

My stay at the resort spa was quite enjoyable, especially thanks to the spacious rooms that offered a stunning view of the pool area and the beach. The jacuzzi was a real treat, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. On the flip side, the service left a lot to be desired, with some staff members being rather dismissive. The beach wasn't usable during my visit, which was disappointing considering the expectations for a resort by the sea.

Overall, my stay at the resort was pretty enjoyable. The rooms were spacious and featured a lovely jacuzzi, making for a comfortable experience. I admired the stunning view of the pool area and beach, but some aspects of the service were unfortunate-there was a feeling of unkindness from certain staff members, which put a damper on things. The dining options were decent for the most part, although nothing too spectacular. If it weren't for a few service hiccups, this would have been a perfect getaway.

I recently stayed at this resort spa and while it offered some really nice features, it had its downsides too. The rooms were spacious with a great jacuzzi and a beautiful view, but the service left much to be desired, often feeling unkind. The dining options were decent, especially those juicy burgers, but more variety would've been appreciated. Overall, the resort has its strengths, but there's clear room for improvement.
