Lovely position. Rooms not insulated enough as could hear people in their rooms whilst in the corridors. Went out about 10.30 pm and couldn’t get back into property. They had a buzzer, but voice kept saying can’t help me now but leave a message. Did this twice - same reply. Eventually saw someone at reception and waved to them. They were unaware I had rang the buzzer or what the message said.

The position was lovely. It was very clean. Reception staff were great. We had decided to dine at the restaurant we looked at the website for menu and were very happy with the menu. We arrived at the restaurant and the waiting staff need intensive training and we found the menu had changed and were very disappointed. The bar person I cannot comment on as I did not have any contact with. The apartment was very noisy. The view was beautiful.

Staff while friendly were poorly trained and managed. The property appeared neglected. I used this property to compare it too another resort nearby which we have been staying at for many years but as a result of our experience I will not be returning to Opal.

Beautiful location, property and probably the best beach attached to any property. Amazing staff who were always smiling, cheerful and happy to help. However, the rooms and amenities have significantly aged. All the furnishings are falling apart, carpets tearing, bathroom fixtures old and barely functioning (flush in our room needed us to hold it down, tub was stained beyond redemption, toilet seat less said the better). Very disappointing for what was a prestigious property once. The games room is externally managed and needs coins. Don't bother if you are heading to the big banana which has a better games room at a lower cost. Not sure what the missed opportunity for that space is. But again, lovely location with direct access to one of the best beaches you'll see around there.

Very comfortable. Lovely staff. Kids really enjoyed the facilities. Great location. I was very disapponited in my main meal from the restaurant. It was not cheap, and was inedible. I left the restaurant hungry. Everything else was great though.
