    comfortable rooms
    communal bbq
    outdated decor

    Comfortable rooms equipped with a stove, microwave, and balcony offering views of palm trees. The communal BBQ area provides a nice social touch to the experience.

    Some rooms had issues with outdated decor and insufficient lighting, notably lacking separate lighting in the kitchenette. The mattresses and pillows felt overly soft without suitable support, leading to discomfort at night. Also, weak Wi-Fi challenged planning excursions during the stay.

    convenient location
    well-equipped kitchenette
    inviting pool
    weak wi-fi
    uncomfortable mattresses

    The Desert Palms offered a very convenient location, just a short walk into the CBD area. The room itself was spacious and clean, but a little more attention to detail in the cleaning department would elevate the experience. The kitchenette was well-equipped, which was a nice touch, making it easy to prepare quick meals. The pool area looked inviting, and the gardens added a delightful vibe to the property. I appreciated the nice BBQ setup available for guests. However, the Wi-Fi connection was frustratingly weak, making it hard to plan activities. Also, the mattresses were not very comfortable, impacting restful sleep. The reception staff showed enthusiasm, but I did encounter some issues regarding room maintenance. Some amenities felt a bit dated, and a deep cleaning would help address lingering dust in certain areas. Overall, it was a decent stay, but improvements in room cleanliness and comfort would make it a top choice.

    hot water
    lovely pool area
    secure environment
    cramped bathroom
    limited kitchenette

    The Quad Villa was a cozy spot for our family of four. The bathroom was a bit cramped, especially with four of us, but at least the hot water was reliable. The pool area was lovely, perfect for lounging. Also, having a security guard at night gave peace of mind. I wish the kitchenette was a bit better stocked, though. Having to use air conditioning at night was a bummer, since we couldn't crack open the sliding doors for fresh air.

    cozy balcony
    well-equipped kitchenette
    chilly nights

    I absolutely loved my stay, especially the cozy little balcony where I enjoyed my morning coffee and the well-equipped kitchenette for late-night snacks. The pool and laundry facilities were such a bonus, making everything super convenient. Just a heads up, the heater worked great, but it did get a bit chilly at night, so pack a sweater! ☕

    pool fun
    helpful staff
    family-friendly room
    accessibility issue

    We had a fantastic time at the pool, the kids loved it! Staying in the Family Villa made it super convenient for our family of seven. The nearby golf course clubhouse had delicious eats, and the staff was really accommodating with our requests for extra bedding.

    For dads, it would be great if there were more accessible ramps for strollers or those with mobility issues.
