Reviews summary
What guests say
We read the latest 200 Google reviews, posted between 21 Aug and 14 Oct 2026, so this is a late-summer read. 158 gave five stars and 9 gave one or two. Staff come up most (82 reviews, average 4.6), then food (49, 4.4), children (35, 4.5) and the pools (29, 4.5). Entertainment scores best (29 reviews, 4.8), then the spa (23, 4.7). The weak spots are rooms (27 reviews, 3.9), location (8, 3.9), value (10, 3.9) and drinks (9, 3.9).
We count and summarise; we don't copy reviews. Averages are the star ratings of the reviews that mention each thing.

Can you get a sunbed?
- Six pools, two of them for The Level
