First let me state that this is a great resort! Everything was up to the high standard that I expect from Neilson. The resort is aesthetically pleasing and offers a good range of activities. I particularly enjoyed the kayaking. The food was also excellant! On the non-inclusive nights (of which there are 3), I would recommend the walk into Sivota... More

This resort has all the wonderful things i have come to expect from Neilson, the beach is gorgeous and the staff as helpful and enthusiastic as ever. Although there were ALOT of steps (220 from bottom to top to be exact) we didnt mind this, just another excuse to keep fit. The early morning wakeboards were really great with the... More

I was quite apprehensive about our holiday. I wasn't how physical it would be. But it suited us all - 2 adults & my 2 boys (1 aged 5 & 1 aged 13). But it was great.

Been here 2 years in a row. Nice resort with friendly staff and a whole host of activities for the entire family. If you don't like sitting on a beach and neither do your kids this is the place to go. Great food and drinks, rooms are functional & spotlessly clean. We followed a week here with a week on... More

I wish I could live in this resort! We've been twice now and just booked for next year. The staff are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The food is lovely, so fresh and a big selection to choose from. Don't go here if you can't walk up steps - as there are a lot of them here.... More
