sorry kaz just got your query
we left hotel on 11th august at that time:
the main hotel was not affected except loss of 5-6 rooms behind reception[old] reception itself is relocated to front area ,one driveway is gone andhalf the fish ponds.
there is minimal noise and no dust.
since last year,the pool attendant area is bigger giving a shade area up to the kids pool and the bar is where it has always been despite me being told it was sinking!
the new hotel was in two blocks, the part nearest the pool is 3 storey and the further part 2 storey. 10 rooms per level total 50 rooms[i guess]. they were starting some work at front maybe new reception and restaurant area?
as we understand, when completed--august 2011 the old hotel will close and be refurbished but not demolished.
all staff are same and all happy cheers dave
