Resort beautiful, rooms clean and comfortable, staff helpful, professional and efficient. Lots of nice touches.
Inclusive breakfast good, a few nice things on lunch menu, but evening food poor. Chef can overcook anything, particularly fish, can't use spices and fruit, and can't match sides with main dishes. We lasted three meals and then started eating out, despite the £35 per night cost of a taxi - anything to get away from that chef.
First meal sweet and sour duck breast, overcooked, neither sweet nor sour, accompanied by bizarre combination of raw and cooked carrots. Partner had grilled tuna salad. Tuna nicely cooked but cold - grilled tuna should be at least warm.
Second meal moroccan spice rubbed chicken breast, overcooked, not spicy, with carrots and sprouts when crying out for pineapple and apricot. Couscous best part of meal. Partner had grilled mahi mahi. Fish overcooked, plate so hot she couldn’t touch it, so fish still cooking on plate. Dessert grilled pineapple with coconut ice cream. Pineapple cold and out of tin, ice cream flavourless.
Third and final meal escovitched snapper. Escovitching is whole fish shallow fried to crisp skin, then doused with generous selection of vegetables in hot vinegar dressing to finish fish to soft texture. Chef had cut fish into slices so it curled up, deep fried it, and thrown over a few sliced carrots.
Food much better elsewhere - great steaks at Big Chef, and amazing seafood at Naked Fisherman. Other guests did the same.
