An excellent spot with great facilities. The rooms were excellent with balconies over the "quiet pool".( there are two pools for you to enjoy) The only criticism would be the restaurant where staff were sometimes a little off hand and you did have the sense of fighting for your food at the buffet. There is no waiting on table. However... More

We had stayed in The Island Hotel last week. I will keep this review short and to the point. If you are looking for a superb modern accommodation, quality food and excellent service don’t look no further. The Island Hotel ticked all the boxes. The property got 2 pools (main pool by Stone restaurant) and chill out pool (small size)... More

Our third year at The Island Hotel, and once again it was perfect! The staff, from managment to cleaners, gardeners to waiters are the most wonderful, polite, friendly and hard working people we have ever met. I am very proud to call them our friends. I cannot praise them all highly enough. Our room was fantastic, clean and tidy, maid... More

My friend and I were a little anxious going to this hotel as Thompson's had marketed it as a Couples hotel. Although our concerns were typically confirmed on arrival as we were allocated a double room the hotel staff were very helpful in quickly sorting out the problem. This was despite us emailing the hotel before arrival telling them we... More

Lovely big clean hotel. Staff friendly. For the amount of rooms and people staying not enough sun beds. People had towels on them by 7am. Not fair on everyone else. Never managed to get a sun bed around either pool in the whole week of stay. We had to go to the beach instead. Food okay except for the main... More

We have just returned from 2 very relaxing weeks at this hotel. The hotel is very clean and modern and the staff are amazing. The food is great, lots of variety so you'll never get bored.
