We spent a very relaxing four days at the resort. We did not do a lot apart from the occasional walk on the beach, eating lots of very nice food and of course drinking some nice wines. Brian did sample a couple of the local beers which were very welcome as we reclined on the beach loungers ( Brian said he only had the beers because our butler had tramped across the beach to see if we needed anything and he did not want to disappoint her!). All in all a very satisfactory stay, we would certainly recommend the hotel.

Fortunately the airport is quite modern and efficient.Read more
