Fairmont - Second stay

The stay was overall very good, however as raised with the duty manager on leaving there were a few issues which dropped the rating of my stay and my thought on whether I would return. There were a few key issues Firstly, the quality of the food. At breakfast while the introduction of the a la carte menu is great, the quality of the food was hit and miss and it was obvious the food was made and sitting out the back waiting to be brought to tables. Interesting the food improved on the last day which I mentioned and was told a new chef had started that day. Taboras is a great addition now it is finished, however again the quality of the food at dinner time was average at best which made us go out to eat. The quality should be at the level of Lone Star, Sea Shed, Cliff, etc but falls well below that. We only ate there one lunchtime at the end of the holiday and found the food then was fantastic. I enquired why it was so much better and was told it was different chefs at lunchtime to dinner time. Cocktails in the bar were hit and miss, again nothing like you get outside at other establishments. It seems that there needs to be an increased level of training plus consistency of the quality supplied. The staff were very divided too, half could not do enough for you, half seemed uninterested and not wanting to help. My last issue was sunbeds on the beach. Either get enough for everyone or stop people reserving them. I don't like to have to fight for a bed and be told by staff I need to be there earlier. Essentially, I would say the 5 star rating of the hotel relies on the location and lack of other hotels in that area. Without that, I would say it is drifting to a 4 star and would really consider trying another hotel such as the Sandpiper for our visit next year. On the positive, some staff such as Alison, Tia and the guys in the Taboras bar were over helpful and welcoming. Just need more like them, also Natasha did listen to my thoughts and dealt with it well on the last day.

Relaxing break

First visit to the Fairmont Royal Pavilion and holidaying on a B&B basis rather than AI. All the staff were friendly, polite and willing to have a conversation, answer any questions that you had. The culture is laid-back, so we did need to ask a couple of times to get a couple of queries dealt with, but no drama. Hotel is clean and well maintained, with good facilities and great beach. Breakfast was fantastic.

Fabulous location

Hotel is let down by the food, fresh juice should be absolutely a standard. It is also had no mini bar and when I asked for one two days later I got a fridge delivered without any drinks in it. It has the potential to be fabulous but doesn't really achieve this.
