I was there from sept 25 to Oct 2nd. It was a great place. I was there in the second week it was open and yes it did have a few problems however none were major and as the staff get used to the new system it will be fine.
It is a beautiful resort with great swimming pools. There is a kind of lap lane which is connected to the bar pool however it is sunken down a layer and you have to get out of that then into the bar pool. then there is also the beach pool which is lagoon style sourrouned by sand very nice.when i was there it was very empty as it was just open so everyone was around the bar pool. the rooms were very nice with either a king bed or twin king single beds well they were huge single beds anyway and were so comfy!!! they were medium sized rooms i wouldn't want it to be any smaller but as you spend hardly anytime in there it was fine. There is a gym which only has a few pieces of equipment but i didn't use basket ball and tennis courts again didnt' use them. The food was ok. It was buffet breakfast with a variety of food from toast to fried noodles!!! but it got you though the day BUT to put on your toast they only had butter and pineapple jam!!! ahhh needless to say I went off toast for a week.but the juice was yummy!!! I have no idea what it was as I cound't understand the word however it was white I guess it looked like watery milk but tastes great (don't worry there are other juices and water and tea and coffee).
dinner was again mostly buffets the theam changed nightly but i did get sick of buffets!!! except 3 of the nights they have table service where you select from a set menu. The best was the steak!! it was sooo nice!!!
anyway Thats all I have time to write now. If you have any more questions about it just ask!!!
