relaxing getaway

attentive staffwide selectionspacious fitness hallhigh dining cost
The staff was attentive, especially at the pool. i really enjoyed the wide selection at breakfast. The omelet station was a highlight. also, the fitness hall was spacious, with a squash court, i did a great workout there.
The cost of dining was pretty high. I ended up ordering kids meals through room service one night because it was a cheaper option, which wasn't ideal.

the room seemed a bit old, like they haven't updated anything since the nineties. the furniture was worn out. the worst part? the dining costs. seriously, i nearly had a heart attack when i saw the bill. it was so expensive, i practically lived on kid's meals from room service. it's the only way i could keep my bank account from crying. i swear, next time, i'm bringing a suitcase full of snacks and hiding them in the room.

the hotel had ample parking available. this made arrival and departure quite easy.
The room was rather outdated. the furniture seemed old, and the carpet had a musty smell. it felt overpriced considering the condition of the room. A refresh would definitely be an improvement, the stairs leading down to the beach were very steep, a problem for anyone with mobility issues.
