This is my second visit to the resort but it was not beyond my expectations like the first visit. This time the service has downgraded.Poor communication between staffs for hotel orientation. No service from the second pool if you want a drink you need to get it by yourself from the main bar pool. New staffs needs lots of training... We need more Ecole hoteliers or vatel students to work for the hotel. As the foreigners are here just to get paid and go home. I am in the hospitality sector I feel bad to see the tourism industry is no longer the same. I noticed animation and the main bar is more lively than the second poor at least you could put some waiters to cross check clients if they wanted something.I know we are short of people in the hospitality industry. We paid our package expensive and didn't get the service we paid for. The kitchen chef served us a complimentary champagne as a welcoming drink in the restaurant as my sister works there. On a note my sister wasn't aware that I was coming there. So nothing was planned. I really hope this will change. Overall amazing and creative scenario. Thank you for everything. Read less
