First time in the resort and got the biggest welcome from Avii at the reception. The resort is so huge with full of activities. It's very convenient to travel from the buggies and also need to thank Lakshan from concierge for arranging us buggies within a snap. It was a great experience and we definitely will return soon 🏖️❤️

The concierge team at Palm tree court was unbelievably helpful. We would like to extend our thanks to Albert, Andrew, Babu and the whole team. The hotel was good. Our original room was fairly small so I had to upgrade which was very costly. They had no partnerships with Amex or skywards so couldnt use our points to upgrade, this was bit disappointing. The swimming pools were amazing and the kids loved it. Waterpark was very small but the kids enjoyed it. The kids also enjoyed the horseriding anf falcon show. The shooting was very good, although a very short and bit pricey for jus 25 rounds, but definitely worth the money. The reception staff we encountered, although very polite i think require further training. We were misinformed a few times which meant we planned around wrong information or in the case with the upgrade, nearly paid £700 more until I spoke to the reservation team myself and sorted the upgrade. It was little things but when you are limited on time on holiday, it can get annoying when you get u are not given correct information. Overall stay was good and once again 5 stars to the concierge team who made our stay very pleasent and were so helpful with our kids stroller and transporting and arranging stuff. Read less

A fabulous stay again at Palm Tree Court. The new pool (Tamr pool) was a great addition to the others. The only downside for couples looking for a quiet relaxing holiday was the sheer amount of kids there - even at that time of year. Previously there were very few but see they are offering free child places hence the amount. I would suggest PTC… Read more
A fabulous stay again at Palm Tree Court. The new pool (Tamr pool) was a great addition to the others. The only downside for couples looking for a quiet relaxing holiday was the sheer amount of kids there - even at that time of year. Previously there were very few but see they are offering free child places hence the amount. I would suggest PTC look at offering an adults only pool for some respite- the one in lake view isn’t convenient for those of us in JA or PTC hotels. Read less
