Positive: The buffet style breakfast had plenty of variety including fresh fruit, eggs and vegetables. The bacon was the best in Africa! We loved the outdoor pools and the beach. I used the gym most days and Dixon was excellent. The hotel taxi was excellent. The beach bar was our favourite and the staff were amazing there.
Negative: Nothing. My son Jack was very disappointed with the porridge. It was too sloppy for words. There were not enough sun beds on the beach. there were only 2 kayaks worth taking out. The others should be got rid of.
Summary: A great, relaxing trip on the beach.
