Amazing service, food and views!
5/5 • 31/05/2025This is our 6th Club and our favorite one yet and we least expected it! The location is amazing and the club is mostly renovated and done very nicely. The food and bar are run so well and there is so much room that it never feels crowded in either. Now for the service…Gianni runs such a good club and shows up everywhere with a smile on his face.
Laurine, both Maxime’s, Helena and Louis were amazing…loved our daughter so much and showed the kids a great time. Not only did Louis take care of the kids but his real skill is lunch time crazy signs…the BEST!
Lucas at the zen pool had great vibes and makes the best fresh juices and is so pleasant to talk too!
Overall, new favorite Club and we can’t wait to return.

Teen sons and husband loved it
5/5 • 31/05/2025Enjoyed the sea views, the lovely beach, tennis, golf practice, archery.
I never dreamt I’d be able to do aqua aerobics with my husband but he now thinks it’s quite the workout! I loved the zen area and swimming close to frogs! Great to restart yoga!
Thank you for a great
