"The resort is stunning now. We stayed here a few years ago when it was very tired, but it is unrecognisable after a full renovation. In fact I didn’t realise when I booked that it was the same place. The rooms are well laid out for a comfortable stay with plenty of room to put your bags and hang clothes. Our room on the first floor had a great view over the bay, and I think all the rooms face that way. A class act."
