Unwanted Early wake up call
Woken up by housekeeping welcoming themselves into my room at 8.20/30 and also waiting at the end of the corridor asking if I was leaving well before the 11am checkout time! Surely they know when a room is occupied and due to check out? Obliterated the idea of staying after spending time in the numerous bars on site which gave great service thanks bas and Spencer! Shame the stay was ruined by impatient housekeeping

Comfortable and prepared nicely. The location of the bathrooms (from the pods) may not suit all. The breakfast was well organised and of good quality

Very disappointed
The spa was terrible, really disappointed. It was broken in so many places. The tropical pool areas bubbles didn't work, and it was cold. The big pool was freezing. There were no chairs to lay on at all unless you wanted to sit outside and freeze. The sauna and steam room were sooo full couldnt get in. When i mentioned to the staff there were no sears they just sniggered and said yeh thats what it is always like. I said how am i supposed to relax if i cant sit down. Spoke with other customers and they also were really annoyed stuff was broken, they mentioned one of the hot seats were broken too. When there are only 5 that isnt great. Also we were told we got a robe if we gave a deposit which we got back on its return. This is not true. We had to pay and we didnt get the money back, so we didnt get a robe which reallly sucked. They also allow young kids in the spa area in the afternoon so we had jumping splashing and screaming The flat was lovely amd had besutiful views which made up for the spa being so bad. The room was lovely and we were very happy with how clean it was etc. However, we got no sleep at all. This strip was supposed to be my first time being away from my kids, getting some sleep and relaxing. However got woken up too many times to count with shouting and screaming guests literally until the very early hours of the morning. I would have got more sleep at home with a baby.

2 bedroom apartment
We stayed in a 2 bed apartment. They are huge for 4 people! An ensuite in each bedroom, well equipped kitchen, dining area and plenty of seating. We had a ground floor apartment and the back wall was floor to ceiling glass/patio doors which looked right over the golf course. It was lovely to be able to open the patio doors in the evening.

No ensuite
The pods have no running water or bathroom facilities. You have to leave the pod to use the bathroom or the shower. If you have to use them bring a dry robe and some sliders so you don’t have to get completely dressed. I booked somewhere else.

Avoid
Stayed in the Eco Pods, AVOID Very expensive for what they are, it’s just like camping with shared facilities that are a distance away and few in number. Have to get out of bed to turn the lights off! Even the buffet breakfast wasn’t great, fresh fruit was just apples.

Perfect Apartment stay
Incredible. Our apartment was perfect. The staff in the restaurant + sports bar. The tall gentleman with glasses (on entrance) fabulous, couldn't do enough for us. Young tall man with tall hair on the bar, fantastic. Check in was smooth and speedy as was check out. Only downside is we didn't realise we had spa use includes in our stay so we didn't bring our swim gear. Bit we will be back to do this!!!
