This hotel has a great location, nestled right in the heart of D'mall, making it super convenient to access shops and the beach. The rooms are spacious and quite comfortable, and I appreciated the clean amenities. On the downside, the dining experience wasn't up to par, with the breakfast options being lacking. The facilities, especially the pool area, could use some more attention as well.

I had high hopes for this resort, especially returning after a good experience years ago, but there were mixed feelings this time. The location is fantastic, so close to the beach and shopping areas, making it very convenient. However, the room noise at night and outdated decor really detracted from the experience. The staff were friendly and helpful, which was a plus, but the overall feel was a bit off due to some disappointing services like the dining options.
