“The staff make the difference”

Nov 27, 2025Anne P

Another wonderful stay. As ever the staff are superb. Stand out butler service from Iliyas. A true gentleman. Kamrul went the extra mile with preparing and cleaning our room. Thanks so much. I’d also like to mention Joseph, waiter at Le Promenade. Friendly and knowledgeable. These are some of the many staff who help make it the best holiday experience ever.

“Stay experience”

Sultan been doing creative presents to our family all the time, had some laugh and positivity while discovering the DIY’s he made out of towels. And, of course, that he never forgets about us

“Still our favourite resort!”

Nov 03, 2025Raj B

We booked our favourite resort for second part of our holiday and my birthday celebrations. We stayed in same cluster of villas this year villa 19, last year we were in villa 21. We continue to stay at villas due to the peaceful and tranquil surroundings, the newly renovated rooms are beautiful and whilst we still have mixed views on some changes the customer service and amenities are excellent. Thank you Waqas, Agnes, Sunny and Valentia for making our stay and my birthday so special. Jitu and Umar at poolside were so helpful and loved the special touches on your last day too. Over the years we have seen many changes and we absolutely understand use of technology and making services more streamlined, you can still however contact butler service through different options , this year I didn’t use e-butler service , found it just as easy to call and use different options to book restaurants, buggies or abras. Happy hour timings are not ideal for us , preferred 6-8 but for families accept 5-7 probably better. Its always nice opportunity to chat to staff during happy hour, previous years we have also enjoyed meeting other guests. If you are looking at staying part of a large resort but prefer some peace and quiet, we would always recommend the villas.
