Had stayed before for its peace and quiet but sadly the Saturday seems to have changed and had the Poolside DJ blasting music through single glazed windows If you are planning a relaxing Saturday afternoon don’t go as the poolside live DJ will definitely spoil your quiet planned afternoon Otherwise the hotel is excellent Staff are very helpful and prompt in serving Duty manager was understanding regarding the music but sadly not much could be done I suppose the hotels are trying to keep pace with nearby hotels with live DJs The hotel is very family oriented so good atmosphere

Use it only if the price is convenient
Far away from points of intererest, but has a nice beach with a reasonable amount of water. The sun comes out late, due to the height of the building.

First of all, I should say the beach resort is lovely and the area around the pool with live dj and bar is a really enjoyable place to spend your time. However, we faced some issues upon arrival. Me and my partner had only booked for one night to enjoy the palm. They let us check in early, which we were very grateful in. But our room didn’t live up to expectations… the bathroom worked as a wet room, but with the shower no more than a foot away from the toilet and clearly something wrong with the drainage, the bathroom was literally flooded after no more than a minute under the shower. We took this up with the front desk and after some persisting, a lovely supervisor apologised and allowed us to move room. She was very attentive and upgraded us to a sea view which again, we were extremely grateful for. This did turn the experience around and we had an enjoyable afternoon… but the whole escapade took up a considerable amount of time and for the nightly price, we both thought the first room was a little unacceptable for a five star hotel. The breakfast was also ridiculously expensive… £68 for two people to buy the morning of. Overall, we felt that the interior and overall layout of the hotel was a little worn. For the price and rating, we really expected more.

The property was really nice and clean. The staff was great. The only things were the hotel did not have anything for visitors to do while they were there. The full board only counted for the buffet and the food was not that great. And the selection of food was very limited. If we had known that full board was only for the buffet. We would have just purchased our food daily from the other restaurants inside the hotel.

For a stay on The Palm, it was fantastic. Reasonably priced, good facilities with decent beach space and pool access. We paid for a partial beach view but were kindly upgraded to a full beach view which was lovely and meant we could watch the beautiful sunset. The hotel is very clean, great service by the staff and they were super helpful when we needed recommendations. We did have an issue with the shower, in that we couldn't get the hand held showerhead to work but there is an overhead option. Overall, we had a great time! It is a bit far to get into and around the main centre, however if you're looking for a reasonable option on The Palm then this would tick all your boxes.

We liked the staff’s eagerness to help the guests and the beach access. We did not like how limited the gym facility was, we did not like how expensive the drinks were, we did not like the fact that our view was a dirt lot that was littered with trash, and we did not like how crowded the beach and pool area felt during the day.

Absolutely amazing!
I have absolutely no complaints about this property! We were welcomed with drinks at check in and the service was great the entire time. The food was incredible with a ton of food options. I got the chance to even go on a jet ski right from the beach. Views and beach access were incredible. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone!
