The hotel was beautiful for Christmas. The staff were really good too ensure our stay was enjoyable for everyone. My kid loved the lagoon. Mum enjoyed the spa.

The hotel rooms felt little dated and worn. The pool was not cleaned well and the coral was dirty. I thought this was not really five star.
