The location was convenient. It was very close to the beach and shops. the christmas decorations added a festive touch! the cleaning service was excellent, keeping my room tidy each day. i found the towel art, like the elephants, adorable.
The uneven floor near the kids' pool caused me to sprain my ankle. The staff response could have been quicker.
