Reviews
First of all, the hotel is quite large, and the distance from each room to the effective service area is quite far. The hotel needs to send an electric car to transfer. This electric car is very psychedelic, sometimes very fast, sometimes very slow, and it is impossible to control the time reasonably.
The hotel's breakfast is also mediocre. It is probably more like an English breakfast, but the food is not very good, especially for Chinese stomachs. Overall, it is much lower than psychological expectations.
There was a power outage at night, and it took about half an hour to recover.
Friends who drive themselves can use it as a transition to the south, but it is not recommended as a long-term residence.
Fortunately the shower was hot and the bed very comfortable.
This place needs a great deal of money spent on it to make this 5*.
The plastic sheeting as a wind protection in La Plage needs to go and bifold doors or patio doors or see through roller blinds,as many people thought it to be old and tired. This actually spoilt any view.
I'm afraid I wouldn't return as it doesn't compare to other 5* hotels I've stayed in.
All the other guests, as well as myself couldn't understand the silly green bed surrounds. They prevent you getting into bed as they move. They need to go and replaced with bedside tables. That would help the appearance of the bedrooms as nobody likes them.
All the other guests that I spoke to said they were upset at the lack of interesting entertainment. The lack of a dance floor. Nobody wanted a disco. Many guests said they felt the photos advertised showed the resort in the best possible light.
The swimming pool is a joke. Three people in there is too many.
The staff, the bed, the shower, the scenery , and the food were a saving grace. I think if this wasn't the case you would have had a number of complaints.
I have been completely honest. Please remove the silly bed surrounds and put bedside tables. This was a talking point with all the other guests I spoke to.
I have been totally honest and feel upset to be so frank when all the staff and management were super helpful,professional and kind.
