Nov 30, 2024Entertainment
The entertainment crew was amazing they have fun activities for everyone. They tried to get everyone involved in the activities and they were fun to watch. The other guests were also able to interact with one another. I really liked the big beach ball they had in the pool and the other activities like bracelet making and painting with wine. It was a great time!

Entertainment!
The entertainment crew was great! They try to get everyone involved in the activities and make sure they have a great time and they remember the people that joined the activity. Alison did the dance class and made sure you knew how to the dance and included everyone.

Wonderful stay with something for everyone
We came for our wedding with 20 guests, a mix of friends and family. The resort was beautiful and all staff were very friendly and accommodating. There was a great choice of restaurants and the cafe was a really nice addition. The accommodations feel private and aren't on top of each other, and there are minibuses and golf carts which offer free transport around the hilly resort. Included activities were great and there was something for everyone, from kayaking to bracelet making!
