Whether simply lounging poolside, causing a splash or participating in some aqua-based fitness, the resort’s 11 shimmering pools mean days are easily filled with a huge dose of fun and relaxation.

On dry land, guests can partake in tennis, volleyball, mini golf, giant chess, plus an all-day entertainment programme courtesy of the animation team. And pint-sized guests are not forgotten with the supervised kids’ club (for 4-12 year olds) home to age-appropriate games, competitions and mini disco.

Should a visit to the fully equipped gym sounds a stretch too far, the more laid-back can visit the luxurious spa with its Turkish baths and feel-good therapies, including Bali massage, shiatsu, reiki and aromatherapy.

Once the sun sets, the new amphitheatre plays host to a number of free to enter shows and entertainment by local performers.
