The Vitalis Resort & Spa offers a mix of fun activities and a beautiful setting by the beach, but some areas need improvement. While the rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable, the property's age is showing in parts, and dining options have room for improvement. The dining area lacks air conditioning, which can be uncomfortable, especially during meals. Overall, it's a lovely place, but the service could be better organized, especially regarding shuttle service and communication.
