We stay in a hotel for four nights, very clean very quiet the area around is beautiful easy walk I would recommend this very well to everybody to come down and enjoy this beautiful areawith
We were given probably the worst room in the entire hotel. On the entry floor, the first room next to stairs and lifts, we could hear everything, the lift up and down, people talking outside, people going up and down the stairs, in the lobby...
Beds had a gap in between that kept wide opening more and more... what a night.
They call it "themed rooms" with a nautical decor, its just dated and not pleasant. At least it does not smell.
Das Personal war sehr freundlich und wir konnten früher einchecken als angegeben, allerdings hatten wir knapp das Frühstück verpasst und mussten dann auf eigene Kosten Lunch in der Poolbar bestellen- nicht empfehlenswert wir hatten einen Salat und wrap und mussten es zurück gehen lassen es war ungenießbar. Außerdem hatten wir in Zimmer direkt über dem Resturant- das Abendprogramm war so laut das wir selbst mit geschlossener Balkon Tür nicht schlafen konnten. Leider ging das Programm auch immer bis 23 Uhr. Das Essen war ganz okay - all inklusive Standard aber qualitativ nicht das beste. Außerdem sehr viele Kinder. Als Paar ohne Kinder würden wir es nicht weiter empfehlen.
A minha estadia correu exatamente como esperava. As condições do Hotel foram de acordo com as nossas necessidades, com bom atendimentos, excelente limpeza e bom nível nas refeições.
Cheguei já tarde ao hotel, quase 22 horas.
A cozinha do restaurante a fechar, tive de pedir serviço de quartos.
Fui colocado num quarto, onde o ar condicionado não trabalhava, estão cansados dos anos, a televisão não estava sintonizada e quando fui ligar à recepção a reclamar o telefone do quarto também não trabalhava.
Tive de ir a pé à recepção para resolver o problema, lá me arranjaram outro quarto, mas quase 1 hora se passou.
Gostámos muito deste hotel. Excelente localização, excelente atendimento e um hotel bonito. O pequeno almoço é variado e os jantares também apresentavam várias soluções. De uma forma geral gostámos muito.
The location the breakfast the cleanliness the friendliness the comfort you cant go wrong with this hotel. The staff are so lovely and helpfull. Especially Ana on reception. She helped me out with my retun check in for our flight. I was having a problem with my phone and she went out of her way to check us in on the computer. Thanks again Ana. I would say no matter what problem you are having they would help you out the best they can. We had a great stay there. Would hsve liked to have stayed longer.

Muy caro relación calidad- servicio
Wc sucio
Mucho ruido por la noche sin poder descansar....
Trashiest hotel experience of my life! I have no idea how this was classified 4 stars, someone somewhere is having a laugh. There was dampness in stairwell. Way finding sign posting was crazy and illogical. The clientele were horrible rowdy British people on all inclusive deals knocking back alcohol and shouting at each other across the pool. The food was depressing. Ordered a chicken salad and it came covered in cocktail sauce like we were stuck in 1980! The scrambled eggs were so overcooked they could doyble up as a weapon and the juice was not fresh but full of sugar and from concentrate. Toiletries were cheap. Decor looks like a cheap office block. The hotel does not have an iron in the whole hotel? It's apparently 4 stars but I have no idea how it got this rating? The phone in my room did not work. The tv automatically turns on and advertises how great the hotel was, I wonder how much they paid people to say it was the best hotel in the world ?(the propaganda didn't work as I was staying there???). On arrival I turned on the bath and the water was brown. So happy to have checked out. Outdated plc3 and a miserable experience.
Hemos pasado 9 noches en este hotel en agosto y hemos estado muy a gusto, habría cosas que se podrían mejorar como el baño de nuestra habitación que podría renovarse un poco, pero aún así merece la pena, la habitación que nos asignaron estaba muy bien, ya que daba a la piscina y también se veía el mar desde su terraza. El personal que nos atendió fue muy correcto, a destacar los chicos de animación, también Daniel que nos atendió en la recepción y el gerente del hotel que estuvo con nosotros un rato preguntando qué tal habíamos estado.
La zona donde está ubicado es tranquila, pero si paseas un poco por el paseo pegado al mar, tienes mucha oferta gastronómica y ambiente nocturno.
Las playas son muy bonitas, y desde el hotel llegas andando en un momento.
Imprescindible el paseo en barca para ver sus maravillosas cuevas y calas.
Great resort in terms of view and surroundings. Also very close walk to the beach. Only thing missing is some amenities like an iron in the room, the beds are also not very comfortable. Overall the staff is very friendly except for the man who makes your eggs in the morning. On more than one occasion he was impolite or made a big deal on small requests like omlettes or even distributing the crepes. I would still go back to this hotel however based on the good qualities outweighing the poor ones.
