Positive: the breakfast was great. The beach was fantastic. The room was disappointing. It is very tired and needs updating. The lighting is terrible - ie: the lights above the bed are basically sitting on your pillow so you hit them all the time. The staff were great and the place was kept impeccably clean
Negative: The rooms are so very tired. They need upgrading. I was very disappointed when we got shown to our room.
Summary: We had a love time but again, i can not stress that the place needs some attention.
