mixed feelings about the stay

great viewsdog presencereserved loungers
the location offered great views and places to sit, whether it was day or night.
Dogs were present in all dining areas. It was unhygienic. i found dog hair everywhere, especially noticeable on the red carpets. the aqua club was not relaxing. Kids ran around and jumped in the pool. sun loungers were reserved with towels, but no one used them.

this hotel provided an very nice stay. the spa facilities were a definite highlight, i found them very relaxing (the hot stone massage was superb!). the reception staff offered great service, they were always ready to help with any requests. the room was clean, and the bed was comfortable.
i noticed some areas, particularly the terrace, showed signs of needing some attention. the furniture looked a little worn and there was bird mess, it detracted slightly from the overall experience.
