The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences
Lovely Swimming Pool
During my stay, I absolutely loved the spacious swimming pool at Purple Resort. It was not only huge but also beautifully designed, providing plenty of nooks for privacy. I enjoyed a refreshing dip after a long day and felt rejuvenated every time. The ambiance around the pool was relaxing and added to my overall experience.

Delicious Room Service
I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food delivered through room service. The sandwiches I ordered were succulent and well-prepared, making for a good snack during my stay. It’s hard to find such tasty offerings at other resorts, and this certainly stood out for me.

My stay at this resort was quite enjoyable overall. It's located in a peaceful area away from the hustle and bustle, perfect for relaxation. The rooms are nice and spacious, but I found the dining experience lacking, especially during breakfast. The staff was courteous, and the atmosphere was calming, but some parts of the property are still under construction, which could be a minor downside for some guests.

The resort is well-located away from the hustle and bustle, featuring a lovely swimming pool and spacious rooms. However, the service was lacking as calls to the reception often went unanswered, and the limited food variety was a downside. The overall experience was pleasant, especially for families and couples, but would benefit from improvements in customer care and dining options.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. While the rooms were spacious and clean, there were significant downsides, such as the overpriced rates compared to the room types offered and the lackluster breakfast choices. The pool was a pleasant feature, but the service left much to be desired, especially with room cleaning and staff communication. Overall, it could be a good option for families but may fall short for friends or those looking for a complete experience.

My experience at this resort was quite mixed. On one hand, the rooms were spacious and clean, and the pool area was well-maintained. On the other hand, the hotel is still a work in progress, which impacts its overall ambiance, and the dining options left much to be desired. It's definitely not ideal if you're looking for a well-functioning resort experience.
