The resort is well-located near the beach, making it perfect for those looking to enjoy the sun and surf. The beachfront views from the apartments are absolutely stunning, and the amenities like the pool and BBQ area are nice touches. However, I was disappointed that the bedrooms lacked air conditioning, which made my stay a bit uncomfortable on hot nights. Overall, it's a great spot for family gatherings but could use improvements in room comfort.

The beachfront apartments were well-kept and feature a fully appointed kitchen along with good-sized bathrooms. While they were generally comfortable, the second bedroom did get a bit warm at times, but it didn't ruin our experience.

I had a wonderful time at the resort! The beachfront location is unbeatable, and the spacious, well-equipped apartment made our stay comfortable. The staff was very accommodating, especially when we needed a last-minute booking. However, the noise from the planes overhead was a bit of a distraction, and the traffic noise could be heard at times. Overall, it offers great value for a family-friendly getaway.

My stay at the resort was a delightful experience overall. The apartments were clean and cozy, with a lovely beach just steps away. The location was perfect for a relaxing getaway, but I found the interior a bit dated and could have used more brightness. Parking was convenient, but getting to the top floor was a bit of a hike. Still, the value for what I paid was excellent and I'd highly recommend it.

I had a wonderful stay here right on the beach! The spacious two-bedroom apartment offered stunning views of Tugun Beach and the pool, making it a perfect getaway. The location is great for morning strolls on the beach or grabbing coffee at nearby cafes. Even though the price was reasonable, there were no lifts, which was a bit of a hassle. Overall, it was a relaxing experience, and I would definitely recommend it for families or anyone looking to unwind.
