All the facilities were very nice. We used the beach chairs and umbrellas right on the beach and pool side. The gym was well equipped and we used it every day.

Nice property, good food choices. Staff were friendly except one server during breakfast who was clearly having a bad day.

9am is a bit late for umbrellas, they should be available earlier. Room has ants.
