"The staff here were really friendly and helpful - they gave us great suggestions and made sure I felt special on my birthday. The dual key spa apartment was bigger than we expected, and we loved having our own space. The kitchen was also spacious. We didn’t use the pools as it was a bit chilly but they looked nice and many other guests were enjoying them. Great family friendly resort!"
