We stayed at Circle for 1 week at the end of Jannuary 2012.
I booked a 2 bedroom 2 bathrooms ocean view apt through an agent. The room is average: old and tired furnitures, very very basic kichen appliances, but it does have a nice view.

About the facities, all the pools + spa are outdoor, couldn't imagine how the guests can enjoy a swim during winter or bad weather, the glass roof over the shaded pool are badly broken, and they didn't even light up the lights along the wall of this pool at night, make it look quite boring.

Dear quynh_c04
Many thanks for posting a review on TA
I am please to say that the very points you raised about the property are currently being addressed. The undercover pool is being enclosed in glass so it is sheltered from those windy days and also Woolworths is currently being fitted out for the old IGA area which will really enhance the area.
I hope you will enjoy these new facilities when you return next time
Kind regards
