Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Property is very good and the views are superb. However I hated the loud, thumping nigjtclub music played at the poolside. Who wants to listen to that noise with a speaker 2 metres from your sunbed. Even if you could move to another one it would still be there. When you look at the average age of the guest at tge pool it indicates that pumping Ibiza style sounds are unlikely to be appreciated. Whats wrong with no music! The top floor bar also pumps out the beats late into the night and the noise entters the rooms below. I think you should review tour policy on this. It spoils what oterwise is a top quality hotel.
