We booked a 17-night stay through TUI and upgraded to Preferred with a pool view. Really glad we did, the room and view were spot on. We’d also considered a swim-up room, but honestly, we hardly saw anyone using the adult ones, so happy we saved that extra cost. The rooms are spacious and well kept (we were top floor), with the mini bar stocked daily, Pringles, M&M’s, drinks etc., all topped up without fail. Housekeeping were excellent, easily 10/10. We spent most of our time around the Preferred adult pool. It was quiet, plenty of space, and never any issues getting a sunbed. The pool bar did some great cocktails, although service could be a bit slow at times, which was surprising given the number of staff around. The beach is only a short walk and it’s absolutely beautiful. It’s split into adults and family sections, and also Preferred and non-Preferred, but you can walk freely along the whole stretch which is lovely. If you head past the Coastal Grill and keep going, you’ll come across a small “secret garden” area — nice little pond, some fish and wildlife, worth a wander. The grounds are stunning and really well maintained. The gardeners work incredibly hard and are often overlooked when it comes to tipping, but without them, the place wouldn’t look half as good. They deserve a big mention. The coffee shop was a real highlight — very much like a Costa-style setup but included, with a great selection. Staff in there were always busy and doing a great job. We didn’t really use the Preferred lounge much — it’s there if you want a quiet drink or snack, but there are so many other places to go it didn’t feel necessary. The hotel app was useful for checking what was going on each day. We didn’t really get involved in many activities, but there were a few nice touches around the adult pool like a violinist and sax player on certain days, both really good. The waterpark is definitely worth a visit (or a few). Four slides and a lazy river, all included until 5pm. It’s well run, with plenty of lifeguards. The only downside there was the food shack — that area could definitely do with some customer service improvement. Weather-wise, we had a great run. A couple of afternoons with rain, but that’s the Caribbean, and to be fair, it was quite welcome at times! We also walked along the beach to the nearby town. Not loads there to see, but it’s where trips tend to head off from. There’s a pharmacy and a couple of ATMs if needed. For us, the standout was the food. The choice is huge, and as adults we could access all restaurants. Some places were better than others, but there’s something for everyone and it was nice to try different things. One big plus was the buffet setup, food served to you from behind screens. It keeps things clean and stops people poking around, which we really liked. The only slight negative on the food side was some of the buffet staff. A few came across like they really didn’t want to be there, which can make things feel a bit uncomfortable. That said, there was a supervisor (usually in pink) who you could see making a difference, service definitely improved when she was around. I think the hotel could really benefit from more active guest feedback during the stay. We’ve been to places where staff regularly check in with you, and it makes a big difference. Feedback helps improve consistency, which is probably the only thing holding this place back. Would we go back? Yes, definitely. Overall, I’d give it a solid 9/10, just missing top marks due to some inconsistency in service, but very close to being perfect.
