This is a very average hotel. It needs to be compared to hotels in its vicinity and I think it is an OKAY hotel compared to a more well known chain like the Rotana or Radisson which would be better in my opinion but they are not as cheap. The check in was not great, I arrived at 2pm and the lobby was full and I mean full of people waiting to check in, they asked us to sit down in the cafe area and they would come and check us in. With no ticketing system and people sat everywhere it was not an ideal solution and it took a while to get us checked in so first impressions were not great. Our room was not ready so we changed in the lobby bathroom and went straight to the swimming pool. They ran out of towels, that's right the pool attendant said they had too many guests and were waiting on towels from the laundry which would arrive in 20min, we carried on walking to the beach and there were plenty of towels there, I don't know why they didn't distribute them more evenly across the hotel. The beach was great, nice waves lots of space to walk. We dinned that night at the sensasia restaurant which was a bit pricey but good food, I would deff recommend it over the buffet dinner. The next morning breakfast was a big buffet it had enough of a variety but nothing to rave about just a standard hotel breakfast buffet. In summary a very average hotel which is cheaper then the nearby well established brands. One thing worth mentioning is that it is easy to access snoopy island from the hotel a short walk and then a swim and that the scuba diving centre is very good.
