Amazing porters & shuttle staff

The rooms were clean, furnished, with a safe and mini fridge. Ice and iron available on request. Breakfast was full of choice with dedicated vegetarian section for meat-less eggs but the wasps drowned in some of fruit syrup and covered the maple syrup so we left breakfast in a rush daily. I understand the location is outdoors so it's hard to manage but it did affect our comfort. Free shuttle to restaurants (sun central) and soho (casino and two other restaurants) and Spar Supermarket. I must give a special shout out to all the porters because they work so hard to get our luggage to the rooms with no lift. I stayed in block 26 and the uphill walk to the restaurant, pool and reception was difficult for my pensioner parents so just note that in the booking. Overall, I would recommend but watch the price and if there's not too much in it, upgrade to Cascades or Palace for luxury because this isn't a luxurious stay but is a clean, friendly and convenient stay.
