This ia a lovely hotel located right on the beach. We stayed in the "Garden Wing" The room was spacious and had a lovely hot shower. It was well equipped with a kettle, hairdryer, iron and ironing board. There are massages available together with walks in the nature reserve. There is also a beautiful swimming pool.
The staff were amazing. Although it was Chinese New Year and extremely busy the staff were always helpful, courteous and always smiling.
The prices of the food and drinks were very reasonable. As for the buffet breakfast, there were vast arrays of food which catered for everyone. There is also a buffet restaurant which is amazing serving lobster tails and seafood in abundance, vegetarian, BBQ, Asian and many more. There was even roast beef and roast lamb with horseradish and mint sauce.
We could find no fault with this hotel. Unfortunately we only had a two night stay here but it was fabulous.

We stayed recently for a few nights in this hotel with the family including 2 young kids. Our experience was great. The facilities and pool are very well maintained and looked after. The kids had a fantastic time and enjoyed the pool. There are also plenty of an activities offered which made the time just fly past. Food offerings have been great as well. Most importantly all the staff has been very friendly and helpful. Special mention to Allen who helped us to also accommodate my wife’s food allergies. Overall truly a 5 Star experience and we will come back for sure.

Good service, nice room, clean and big. Even with the additional bed, still has big space. I stayed in the garden side. My niece had a great time at the kidz zone and the swimming pool. The view of sunset was superb from here.

This hotel has a great hospitality spirit. The skinhead male staff in the Ocean Wing was one of the three best hospitality staff I have ever met in my life. He solved the difficult requests we made to him smartly and cheerfully.
The rooms in the Ocean Wing were also great. I liked the bathtub on the balcony. The negative points are that it is far from the city area and the restaurant service is extremely slow, both day and night. There is nothing around the hotel. And I had dinner at Oceano, and it took 1 hour for the starter menu to be served. Well, it was during the Tet holiday, so it was crowded with customers, so it may be understandable.

Great staff, room service is awesome. Stayed here for two nights with wife and son. A varied selection of activities both for adults and children. I signed up my kid for the Junior Naturalist, which was quite an experience for him. Pricey in terms of activities, but worth the price.
