A very nice place to stay. The 2 bedroom apartment was very spacious, and satisfied all our requirements. So close to all the local shops so very easy to get supplies. Unfortunately no time to try the pool or spa, but would have liked to. Would happily stay again

Lovely place, lovely people. Highly recommend

The property is in a good condition, slightly dated but beautiful and comfy. The room we stayed in was well laid out, and very nice for a family visit. Overall a fantastic place to stay but absolute cherry on top was the service. The management are so kind, and thoughtful. I left them a pack of lollies to say thanks because after a previous bad experience somewhere else they really made up for it.

The resort staff were very friendly and happy to deal with any requests we had. The villa was clean but a little dated in terms of decor. We liked the fact that shopping was within walking distance and there was a wide selection of restaurants. Overall I nice quiet place to stay.

The staff was very cheery , happy and accomadating.Big thumbs up. Unit was beautiful and clean only thing was the dish washer had a really bad smell. However the bed in the main room was so uncomfortable as it was hard an lumpy and i woke with asore back and neck, so we had to sleep in the other bedroom which was much better. Other than those things i would definitely recommend this to stay and would absolutely return.

Large but slightly dated home was clean and comfortable. For the price, I was not impressed with the peeling ceiling in the bathroom or that some of the dishes were not completely clean, but the rest of the home was nice with a lovely patio and was across from the pool. The grounds had beautiful landscaping and the pool was nice. Close to restaurants and shopping with pak n save close for dining in options.
