fantastic family getaway
caring staffdaily activitiesfun ritualgreat food
the kids club was a highlight. The staff seemed genuinely caring and planned various activities daily. our children particularly enjoyed the mini-disco every evening. the variety of food available was great, and we appreciated the restaurants that offered sea views during meals.
The main pool area seemed a bit crowded. Finding available loungers during peak hours was challenging. it wasn't a huge issue, but it did impact the relaxation slightly.
