"We just loved our stay here. We stayed in a pool suit which we would highly recommend but book early there the only 2. The bed was enormous and the aircon was super cold which was critical considering it was humid without much breeze, which as a surprise. The food is generally good. I would not say excellent although the lamb was very good. The pizzas are very basic, calamari was good, breakfast was satisfactory to good. But steak, they don’t do steak will at all. I gave it a go twice and on...
