We stayed in a Radnam Pool Villa. There was a number of issues with loose fittings, a tv that kept turning itself on and A/C that was not great in the master bedroom. I also found that there wasn’t a mirror near a plug in the Master so I couldn’t dry my hair in that room. Bedding was lovely and pool area was great too.

The stay here was incredible. All the staff were extremely accomadating, the facilities were top notch and the breakfast buffet 10/10 (I'd recommend paying extra for it if booking here). A big thank you to the Manager Sara and other employees such as Ousamane and Solafa who made the experience that extra bit special.
