The Hand Shower was broken, so you only can shower when sitting. The big pool was a bit heated, kids pool was freezing cold, not good for our 3 y o. The view from our room was perfekt. We had cockroaches in our room. The dinner was good for me, great salad buffet. But not for my husband, meat and main dishes were not good in quality and selection. To use the inside pool in the spa you need to pay 15€ per person a day. For one small pool the kid would use for maybe an hour, this is way too expensive. Didn’t expect to pay anything, not very attractive.

What could have been great, ruined.

The good: The hotel grounds are super nice with lots of vegetation Great amenities Food was pretty good and had decent variety Room was comfortable and spacious AMAZING location and views! Close to everything, close to airport Staff is super nice The not so good: The beds are super hard, so if that is an issue for you, ask for a topper at reception Room would smell mouldy and horrible when AC ran too long. Took 4 days to only partially resolve, but was still smelling bad when we left. It is no smoking, but everyone smokes on their balcony, so we could never keep the patio door open. Pool steps were super slippery, ended up spraining my foot mid way through our stay. Even though the food had good variety, items that were more popular always ran out quickly and had trouble being refilled. Parking spaces are SUPER TIGHT Day 2: Someone took our parking spot and we had to be relocated. The horrible: A group of football players took over the hotel causing chaos, constant noise, taking over the pool, buffet, bars. They completely ruined our experience and the front desk could only shrug and say "Sorry" without doing anything. They ended up leaving 2 days before we left, so 4 days of our vacation of getting woken up all the time, having absolutely no fun at the pool and not being able to get any peace eating at the buffet. The hotel did not really care about our constant complaints on this topic, even though they were reactive for other topics.

The views from the balcony of our room were very nice. We could hear the waves from the ocean when we woke up. That’s the positive. The negative: It says parking is available, but that’s a stretch of the truth. There are a few spots available—maybe 10–but it’s first come, first served. No reservations accepted. We stayed three nights and were never able to park there. Where can you park? On the street if you can find a spot. We looked and looked, without success. You can park at the mall for 35€ a day. Next—breakfasts and dinner are included and the dinner was bad enough that we only ate there once out of three nights. Next—the cleaning service knocks on the door and opens it at the same time. They saw me in my bra a few times, as I had no warning. Maintenance came to fix the tub (that wasn’t broken and I didn’t call them) and just keyed in at the same time he knocked. He saw me naked. Should also note that this is a place that caters to small children. It’s full of kids having fun, crying, screaming, etc. I would not stay here again.

Not recommend to anyone. Never stay there again. We paid almost $500 per night and it was wast of money. We had cockroaches in the room. Room was old. They charge €15 per night per car. Never find parking on the street. We had breakfast and dinner included in the price but we had to pay for the water at dinner (anything do drink you have to pay). Never happed in different hotel. This hotel is overpriced.

The good: We had a great time. Everything was very clean and the staff was very attentive. The entertainment staff did an amazing job with the kids. The food was always good and plentiful as were the drinks. The location couldn't have been more perfect. The bad:Elevators definitely need serviced. Showers have poor water pressure. The air conditioning didnt work on our first night and there was a leak in our ceiling. One bartender always seemed a bit grumpy. All of the entertainment was geared towards the kids leaving the adults with only drinking to entertain ourselves.

We stayed for 10 days. Booked a suite. We originally were on the 16th floor with a mountain view, the room was fine, except for the railing being wobbly. We wanted an ocean view and the front desk was kind enough to give us 2 different suites to choose from. Both were nice, we ended up on the 9th floor. The whole hotel is dated. Like a time warp to the 90's. It's clean and generally well maintained but it's in need of a serious update. The food was not great. Especially for someone with food allergies. A sign saying "Assorted Meat" doesnt cut it. We mostly ate at local restaurants because the buffet was so poorly labelled. The signs for chicken and pork were reversed at one point. There was seafood next to the salads etc. Lunch was... well it was gross. Im not a health nut, but theres no way I was going to eat anything from the lunch options. The A La Carte restaurants... its the same restaurant. Just different nights have different themes. The food was ok at best. Not really worth the hype. Water was a huge issue. You get 2 bottles of water per room per day. Thats it. Dont ask for more. And if you miss the delivery, the front desk will just tell you to go fill a cup in the bar. The bar staff will tell you to go ask the front desk for bottles, it's an endless loop of never-ending thirst. The location is amazing, the town is amazing. The service staff were great, the housekeepers were fabulous. I would go back to the town, but likely not to this hotel.

Great value clean and friendly stay

Excellent stay. Great value. Food was great staff friendly. Loved it when staff showed you to a table rather than the usual all inclusive scrum to get seated together. Food refreshed frequently and wide variety to suit picky kids. Hardly any queues to bar. Ok the lifts are a bit slow but if that’s the negative …. Definitely visit again

El alojamiento en general bueno, las instalaciones no eran muy nuevas, algunas necesitan restaurarse. El buffet completo y la calidad buena, en relación calidad-precio. La piscina genial, podías disponer de tumbona sin problema y con zonas de sol y sombra. El parking un poco caro. La habitación normalita para un cuatro estrellas. La atención del personal muy buena. La conexión de horarios entre el bufete, bar piscina y bar hotel ha sido buena porque siempre podías disponer de algo abierto y eso se agradece, en el todo incluido. La ubicación buenísima, céntrico para ir al mar, pasear y centro pueblo. En general la estancia muy buena.
