Overall disappointing. Food quite basic including tinned coffee instead of fresh coffee. Not enough beach towels for guests, gym is dirty and in dire need of equipment maintenance, aircon in room was so loud it couldn’t be left on during the night , spa staff unfriendly, making coffee and boiling the kettle in the corridor and eating meals at the reception.

The staff and grounds of this hotel are absolutely amazing! The buffet is perfect! Every dish is delicious! The main pool is clean and deep with a shallow lounging area. We didn’t visit the other 2 pools… why leave perfection! I wish we could have stayed longer. Two daisy was not enough!

Beautifull in so many ways.
We booked a swim up room 117 and it was wonderfull. All the swimming pools are extreamly clean and more than big enough for all the guests. We booked only breakfast which was good with enough options. Staff are very friendly and all the service done with a smile. We hope to visit you again. Asante

Property is some what quieter than the other beaches around the coast. Very limited restaurants options around the area. Food at the buffet was very basic and underspiced on many of the days. Nevertheless, we liked the location and how quiet the beach was. Was amazing taking walks without feeling surrounded by many people. Staff were great, friendly all the time and very helpful.

A wonderful hotel. Personally welcomed by the general manager Angela. Beautiful beach on your doorstep. Went to La Base Kite for lunch. Some points of interest:
Cleaning fitness room and equipment. A number of devices are also broken. Follow-up of reported malfunctions is not yet well developed

Lovely resort but not perfect
Great facilities. Rooms, pools, etc, etc top notch and a beautiful place.
Food looked good, but really rather bad. Not sure I’ve ever seen somebody mess up grilled crabs or lobster to the point they were inedible. Would not recommend all inclusive and all meals here. Indifferent service relative to anywhere else we went I. Kenya and Tanzania. Resort largely caters to European tour operators and little in it I guess for staff or management to provide anything but bare minimum service.

We have just had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The hotel itself is huge but so tastefully done and built in a way that if you want to find quiet you can, if you want beach you can, if you want activties there are many on offer, it has something for everyone. The rooms are lovely and it is incredible to believe that you are in a country where so many people do not have power in their homes or running clean water and yet this hotel has 3 beautiful and immaculate pools, as well as numerous rooms with a swim up pool. We were fortunate to have one of these and loved it, it was so lovely. The staff need a special mention, nothing is ever too much trouble, they are just the lovliest of people and then there is the super animation team providing water aerobics, beach parties and volleyball for those who seek something to do. The hotel seems to be a destintaion in particulalry for French and Polish tourists and so there were both French and Polish speakers in the animation team, as well as English of course. This was a brilliant hotel.

Beautiful and clean grounds but watch your bill!!!
The property and grounds were very very nice on an amazing beach. The food was average and a large crowd whenever dinner was opened up. Tip: wait until 8:00pm to eat dinner!
Also, most employees, management included, do not even know what's going on. For instance: there were signs all over for Free Pizza Maragarita, 2 sangria drinks, and 2 vegetables free for all guests except those on Bed and Breakfst plan. I tried to order it several times and no one knew what I was taking about or was charged every time for it. Even when checking out, and the sign was right AT the reception desk, no one knew and said it wasn't valid. Why have the sign!?!?! I was charged $28 for something advertised as FREE.
I liked the property a lot and loved the very very clean grounds and beautiful beach. But until management changes I won't be coming back. No one seemed to know their job.

Probably the worst booking we’ve ever made.
If you have booked, rebook. If you are thinking about booking, rethink. I must issue a warning as this might ruin your vacation.
This is a disco-club hotel for age 60+ and nothing else.
We have never left a hotel early before, this was a first. At first glance, it looks like a 5-star resort, nice environment but rooms are ok but not what you expect for the price.
We booked the swim-up suite ocean view. Small strip of water which is not connected to any of the main pools. Clean though, I’ll give them that.
Arriving here was one of the worst hotel experiences of our lives.
Our problem was the constant dance music. During daytime there is a DJ screaming in the microphone (not the good kind) nonstop, so no relaxing wherever you are on the premises.
Our room was 150 meters away from the bar but we heard everything with doors closed.
The music is extremely loud constantly, and we tried to sleep at 9.30 pm with earplugs, that didn’t help. The music kept pounding through earplugs, and it sounded like a techno-festival (which we at times enjoy but not at a 5 star resort). At 10.45 pm we called the reception and asked about the volume, they apologised and said “we will check”. 11.15 pm I went there to see what was happening and the bar (close to the reception) had 30 people screaming to ABBA and they said “sorry we will close shortly”.
This would be absolutely fine if they actually mentioned this on hotels.com.
So we feel obliged to issue a warning about it.
