This sprawling resort enjoys almost exclusive access to two fabulous stretches of beach either side of it, and also has a large pool, a full water-sports center, tennis courts, a restaurant overlooking the beach and a kids' club. The cheaper rooms occupy a soulless monolith but enjoy divine sea views; the more appealing bungalows cling to a lush hillside.
