Well appointed, large rooms, kept pretty well. The cleaners do a great job. Great private pool and small private garden with our ground floor room - ideal for evening drinks with the family. Grounds generally really well kept, with lots of greenery and Koi ponds build around the circulation (stepping stones through these could be a problem for younger kids, although there are probably rooms not in these areas). Only one pool/bar restaurant area, although there is a decent variety of snacks and food on offer. Lots of variety just outside the hotel in the tens of local restaurants within 10 mins (Tripadvisor ratings for these seem pretty accurate - some of the street food places are surprisingly good, and better than the more upmarket looking restaurants). Some issues with water pressure in our three bathrooms, the baths would take an absolute age to fill if we wanted one, but showers generally good. Aircon in bedrooms good, OK in the living room/kitchen, but won't keep the place chilly if you leave the terrace doors open. Beach very nice, not crowded while we are here (April). Drinks fairly expensive in the hotel bar compared to locally, but not ridiculous. We've just been having one or two beers, and then having our own in the room before going out for dinner, where everything is at least 30% cheaper. Separate small cafe with reasonable cakes, pastries and sandwiches, and surprisingly good coffee for lunch/breakfast if you want it. Generally, very enjoyable so far, and fairly good value for money.
