The hotel is great - gardens well maintained - staff very pleasant and helpful - housekeeping needs attention : bed top sheet well done, bottom sheet not even streched, cups and glasses not cleaned, coffee not replaced, floor not vacc or mopped on 3 days stay, towels not replaced when required. Housekeeper needs a better control.

Disappointing stay as resort is very run down, rooms were sub standard for the price, not even a saucer for a tea cup, no cutlery. Poolside tables and lounge old and ratty, ants in the room. Did not feel like resort living unfortunately.

Really disappointing given the expense

On the first night it took me 30 minutes to get through to in room dining. Then I was advised there was no standard beers available. The food that was delivered was terrible. The room is tired and does not accommodate any USB fittings. I found hair in the bathtub the following morning.

While the room was adequate, had supplied minimum in the way of sugar and milk. The biggest downer was the Sola restaurant. No table service, the floor was dirty with food scraps, and they got the food order wrong and took over 40 minutes to be served.
