the room was ALWAYS very comfy and tidy, it met my expectations.
My room was not thoroughly cleaned. I found an empty juice container on the desk, and the bathroom felt below standard, it was disappointing.

excellent experience
spa access adults-only area professional staff excellent restaurants
The spa complex access was great, with access to the pool and facilities all day. it was quieter than other parts of the resort, and relaxing with the adults-only area. staff members assisted professionally, providing water and juice, and scheduling spa treatments. rehan restaurant provided dinner nightly, and blu mediterranean offered lunch. Both were excellent.

fresh fruit local cheeses gym equipment outdated decor rude staff
The breakfast buffet had diverse options. I especially enjoyed the fresh fruit station and the selection of local cheeses. The gym had three treadmills and two stationary bikes. The equipment was modern and well maintained. The pool area included twenty loungers and a shaded section. The water was clean and refreshing. I also liked the complimentary mud and salt applications at the beach.
The room decor seemed outdated, with orange and red accents. The style reminded me of it came from the seventies. The room was not updated. I found some of the staff to be unhelpful. They seemed a little rude compared to other places I visited.
