I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be a mixed bag. The cleanliness and upkeep of the pool and grounds were impressive, and we really enjoyed our time by the Coconut Pool. However, the rooms were a letdown – they didn't match the pictures we saw online and felt dated. The service provided was good, especially how they catered to our kids and ensured they had a lot of fun. Overall, it’s a decent spot for families but may not offer the best value for money when it comes to the rooms.
