Summary: Great resort hotel , one glaring issue I would have is the charge to use the steam room which is separated from the main pool and jacuzzi. After paying a very high price for a Monday night stay to charge an extra 25 euro to use the steam room was insulting. The steam room is part of an area with whirlpools etc. apart from that all good golf course was amazing !!

Summary: Spa experience was good and the hydropool and facilities were very good. Went to the pool at 6.30pm on a Thursday and it was very busy. Restaurant, bar, breakfast and staff are all good. The bedroom was lovely unfortunately the aircon was useless and there was a high pitch noise outside the window. Between the heat and the noise, I couldn't sleep which took away greatly from an otherwise good stay.
