Poolside sun and tranquility
Review Submitted: 20 February 2010
Date of Stay: January 2009
I booked this large poolside Suite for my family of 6 and the smaller poolside one (conveniently situated next door) for my daughter & partner, both properties came from the same owner so we got a discount ! - see my separte review for the one bed poolside
I wanted quality and space for everybody and was not disappointed
This Suite was so large and so nice, it put some hotels I have stayed in to shame. The owner has arranged 24 hour assistance which we did not need, but it was very reassuring to know it was available to our family.
I was impressed that during my stay, I asked if there was anywhere I could rent a blender to make some smoothies and within a few hours the Owner had purchsed a new one, at no cost for our use . It appears that this level of service was not an isolated incident, as the guest book outlined another family who had been provided a softer matress when the original wasnt to thier liking.
I know this Suite wasnt the cheapest on offer at Fairways, but you obviously get what you pay for ! The only criticism is that the towels although good quality were a bit on the small side - I suggest you take your own for the pool.
The Suite was huge inside and everything was immaculate. The kitchen had everything necessary and the lounge / bedroom furniture comfortable. The terrace had 8 loungers and table / chairs for all, but there was still masses of space for our evening B.B.Q's. Unusually each of the 3 bathrooms had baths and shower cubicles.
Fairways itself is not a large complex but seemed to have everything needed - heated pool was superb. There were pleasant gardens and the whole place was well looked after. Staff were helpful and we found many good restaurants within walking distance . There are 3 on site and we particulary liked a new little bistro one, called the 9th Hole tucked away and the end of the complex.
On arrival we did one huge shop at the local Hypermarket (about 10 minute drive away) for the essentials, but the Supermarket opposite was comprehensive for daily needs and not too expensive - it had a really good selection of wine and a decent meat counter for our B.B.Q's
All in all I cannot fault Fairways or this Suite. We had a very enjoyable, peaceful stay and made some good new friends. I can think of no reason as to why we will not be rebooking next year. Highly recommended.

Owner's Response: Thanks for your comments and I am glad to see that I continue to maintain the highest standards of accomodation and service at Fairways, especially in this Suite.
Obviously your observations are shared by other guests, as repeat bookings for my properties are very very high - so I must be doing something right !
I also noted you comments about the towels and I am pleased to let everyone know that extra additional super large ones have now been purchased for all guests staying here.
Thanks for the feedback, it is appreciated
Roger
