Our stay at the resort was enjoyable overall, featuring spacious and comfortable rooms along with a fantastic pool area. The location was convenient, making it easy to access nearby restaurants and attractions. However, we did encounter some noise disturbances, especially early in the morning, which detracted from the experience. Despite the minor issues, the value for money was great, and we appreciated having amenities like a laundry in our apartment.
