Very good hotel

Very good hotel
I have already visited many hotels and this hotel scores very high in terms of friendliness! Agree the service could be slightly better but this is offset by genuine friendliness of the very hard working staff. The rooms feel a bit dingy. But they are just. This is due to insufficient lighting in the room. Our room was still a bit dated and there may be more pressure on the water to shower. Preferred club is recommended. Breakfast at Casteways Restaurant is delicious (lunch too). Swimming pools are fine. I also think the entertainment as a whole. The entertainment team is TOP! Garden is neat and pretty. The theme restaurants are okay. Nevertheless, the Mexican restaurant was a disappointment for us. Most bars serve soft drinks such as cola, fanta etc. from bottles. This is a plus. The upholstery of the restaurants are rather kitschy! But is not disturbing. During the evening it is nice to stay on the plaza of the hotel and there is also entertainment for children. Childcare is possible. Child friendly stay! Although not freshly squeezed orange juice at breakfast, other squeezed fruit juices, but I think it is kind of smoothies. The best towel service ever! You can take several per day, never experienced especially in the context of the environment. This hotel is different from the RUI chains, is more American oriented but nevertheless not worse maybe better ... And fewer Belgians. The dishes are okay but you do not have to come here to fill yourself up gastronomically. Catamaran and kayaking are available for free. Hotel is not too far from airport. Mind you, the beach of the hotel is just adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean and is therefore rougher than the Caribbean Sea. Would I come back ... Yes! An 8.9 out of 10.
