I found the reception staff to be helpful. They ensured a quick check-in process, which i appreciated. I also found the room tour to be very detailed, as the staff explained all available facilities. The breakfast buffet offered a wide array of options, assuring high-quality food selections.

i found that the sea swimming was somewhat limited because of the shallow depth at high tide.
