Very good location and rooms are great! The only thing was the service that could be improved slightly …. We were suppose to get a fruit platter on the first day but never arrived despite reminding. Otherwise all is fine and good holiday. Breakfast spread was good too.

One night stay at Suite Check-in took about 40 minutes, including queuing and waiting. My booking included club benefits, which meant access to the Magellan Club, but I wasn’t directed there. Instead, we were told to wait “five minutes” at the lounge for the front desk to double-check if the room was ready. The wait ended up being much longer, and we eventually had to return to the counter ourselves to ask if the room was available. The suite itself was acceptable in terms of cleanliness, but there were some minor maintenance issues: the fan remote in the living area didn’t work, and the main room remote was also faulty. The overall facilities were good, and the staff were friendly. Room service was impressively quick, especially when I requested extra bottled water, which was delivered promptly. Overall: A decent stay with some clear highlights such as the Magellan Club access, but better communication on benefits, smoother check-in, and room maintenance would make the experience much more enjoyable.

The place was overall good ie room was fantastic, facilities awsome, food was good even though expensive. Breakfast was little dissapointing interms of varieties and taste. Not properly handled in refill the foods and glasses. One of the Staff serving the egg was very serious till I thought not to order. We enjoyed our days in the resort.

The room was booked under my brothers name for his honeymoon since hes a newlyweds with a request for honeymoon decoration. However, upon arrival, the room had no decoration prepared. If the hotel was unable to fulfil the request, the minimum expectation was to inform me in advance through email or any form of notice. No communication was given, which reflects a lack of attention to guest requests and caused unnecessary disappointment.

Room is clean and comfortable. I love the sunset view here. Breakfast has variety of choices but taste can improve. But sometimes too many people during sunset hour it feels crowded I wonder if they open to public too or just for hotel guests only.
