I asked for a baby cot because I have a 15-month-old baby. But the cot floor was divided into four parts, and the height was different, so my baby was uncomfortable, he couldn't sleep in the cot. Everything else was good. The artificial beach had some shade, so we could avoid from sunlight. Also water was warm, it was good for baby to play in the water. And breakfast was great, and the Korean male server was so kind. we were also impressed. Thanks to him, we had a pleasant Christmas morning.

We were upgraded to a marina view, which was nice however it was partial marina view and partial loading dock for the marina. We didn’t spend a lot of time on the balcony though. The room was great, grounds beautifully kept, pool facilities excellent (though competition for shaded pool chairs was fierce!) and we could not fault the amazing buffet breakfast and coffees! We had a wonderful experience and will be back again.

We've stayed here a number of times over the last few years, and this is probably the best stay we've had. The service was excellent, special note to the room cleaning staff for room 354 who were always smiling and happy to cater to any request. We had in-room dining for breakfast and dinner and the quality of the food was excellent. The steak was a stand-out, perfectly cooked and delicious, as was the breakfast. The room service delivery was very fast too which is impressive considering the property appeared full on the weekend. Despite being full, there were plenty of sun loungers available by the pools and the staff at the poolside bar did a great job of keeping the drinks flowing. The only small improvement would be that there was a bit of wear and tear on the outside of the building (small amounts of rust on the roof and the balcony dividers) but nothing that couldn't be solved with a coat of paint. All-in-all a great stay.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Intercontinental Sanctuary Cove with my family, and it was truly a memorable experience. From the moment we arrived, the warm and welcoming staff and to our surprise we were greeted by Kangaroos right outside our Queenslander Suite. The hotel itself is beautifully designed, with spacious and comfortable accommodations that perfectly catered to our family's needs. Our daughter was thrilled with the fun amenities and activities available, making it a wonderfully kid-friendly environment. From the pool to the play areas, every aspect was thoughtfully arranged to ensure our little one had a blast. Overall, the hotel exceeded our expectations with its blend of comfort, excellent service, and a focus on family enjoyment. We left with beautiful memories and can't wait to return for another stay! Highly recommended for families looking for a relaxing getaway.

Everything about our stay was perfect! Starting from the amazing Front Office staff to the friendly Housekeeping who always greet me with a smile! The room was clean and the pillows very comfortable. Breakfast was great. The place is a true haven. I will definitely recommend this resort to my family and friends!
