Garden Sea View Resort

The hotel is comprised of several different smaller hotels in one. One main big hotel, one smaller and a few sets of Chalet type complexes.

The pool is plenty big enough and there is a lot of coastline with two small sandy areas (but beware broken glass).

We arrived at the lovely reception and were greeted by one of 6 front desk staff. When I say greeted, it seemed like we were inconveniencing them- not a good start. We had to wait until 2pm for our room; at 2pm we walked to our room (which was tricky to find- a map would have been helpful) to find the maid cleaning it and she asked us to wait 1 hour. Understandably we returned to reception and they never even apologized and just thrust us another key (rude in my opinion).

Our room was sea facing and in the garden area. Great little walk in the evening and the sound of the waves when sat on our patio area.

Bedding and towels soft, brand new good pillows.

Things to improve:

There were several unnecessarily loud events but all finished before 11pm (the speakers were rattling level of loud). Louder does not mean better...

The breakfast buffet was bland and mostly the same every day. Having and omelette station would make it more in line with hotels of this calibre. Furniture was solid and new.

Maid was over zealous and shamed me for leaving a small amount make-up on a towel.

Doors to the room were full of gaps and let the mosquito in.

Curtains let in light as they are not wide enough.

Light outside on patio is controlled by hotel not room.

Aircon smelled like foot fungus.

Furniture solid but old.

Bathroom needs a refurb desperately.

No drinks or food from outside hotel near pool. The hotel impose a fine, where most resorts simply request no glass by the pool.

I would return, due to location, if those things were improved.

Check-in went well, staff were helpful. rooms need to be modernized. the lobby area is being remodeled now. that will be helpful. good location, right on the beach. Morning breakfast was very good.

Great friendly staff, good location near the sea. The main issue is that the old rooms with old furniture are used a lot, and you can see signs of that. If they would do a renovation of the hotel, they would get a much higher rating.
