What our clients say
97% of our clients rated their experience with us as Excellent or Good.
Beautiful location and nice resort. Very empty when we were there, so staff half-hearted about activities - eg. sailing, salsa lessons etc. Buffet good enough but specialist restaurants exceptional poor for vegetarians. Italian one closed entire time we were there.
