Location is great and wait...

Liked: You cannot beat this location. Right in the rocks. A few steps to breakfast, lunch and dinner. Going out at night everything is close.. The view from the pool is awesome. Even in winter we went and had a swim because we could. The view from the pool is amazing.
Disliked: We stupidly thought we could get parking cheaper. Yeah nah just use the parking at the hotel it's cheaper LOL

Staff were not very friendly...

Liked: The location was great
Disliked: I didn't like it when we got back to the hotel and the door key didn't work. We got told the batteries and died in the door so they had to change them. Which took 2 hours and we were NOT offered anything we just had to sit on the lounge and wait
