Resort is in the beautiful Dyfi estuary with easy access to beaches and mountains of West Wales. Heated outdoor pool a bonus, new Indian restaurant/bar worth trying. Car essential.

Big resort hotel. Room was plain but clean. Good for families for the space but had the feel of a Butlins holiday centre than a hotel

Very tired accommodation, with ripped curtain linings. Could do with a paint and decorate. Availability of the swimming pool was poor - large groups had pre booked the later sessions. Not worth the money paid

Good resort, bit dated property
The resort was good, we liked the huge estate and the rooms. The reception was not very welcoming. Tennis court condition was poor. Some toilets didn't have a hot& cold mixer tap and it was really difficult to flush the toilets! However the property location and surroundings were excellent! Loved the swimming pool and jacuzzi.

Avoid at All Costs
- **Damp Odor:** The pervasive smell of dampness in Apartment L9 made it uninhabitable and posed potential health risks. - **Hygiene Issues:** The presence of foreign hairs in bed linens and bath areas in both apartments indicated poor cleaning standards. - **Lack of Hot Water:** Apartment H5 had no hot water, making basic hygiene and comfort impossible. - **Health Risks:** Exposure to damp environments can lead to serious respiratory issues, which is unacceptable in a hospitality setting. This review reflects the numerous issues and inadequate responses we encountered during our stay at the hotel. We hope that future guests do not have to endure such a distressing experience and that the management takes immediate steps to address these serious concerns.

Views to die for....
I have read some of the reviews and sometimes wonder what people expect. We stayed in a two bedroom classic bungalow and was impressed with the space and fittings of our accommodation. There is some room for improvement if critical and is not really worth mentioning here. We did not use any of the facilities onsite but we received a warm welcome on arrival and were very accommodating. We could see the pool and had a look at the small gym both looked looked good. Did not see the steam room. Our focus was very much about the surrounding area, the views and waterfall..... We had a 3 night stay and would wished we had at least another two.
