Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Wonderful stay, a lovely respite from a busy city trip, spacious rooms and professional staff in a beautiful setting - the best buffet we all commented on the food. Pity guests could not use pools or sea area for swimming as it was hot , maybe they should rethink that seasonal swimming is closed. Even if only the pool.
Negative: Swimming in resort pool should be available to guests all year round otherwise facilities are limited.
Summary: Lovely stay would have been excellent if facilities could be used or it is limiting for guests.
