The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Snack Bar

The snack bar offered a fantastic selection of lunches that exceeded my expectations. I particularly enjoyed the pizza and burgers, both freshly made and very tasty. It was also quick to receive my order, making it perfect for a midday break after lounging by the pool.

Thrilling Kids Club

My children absolutely loved the kids club program. They participated in various activities, including a fun chocolate party and pool games, which kept them engaged and happy throughout our stay. It's wonderful knowing they were having such a great time!

Spacious Family Room

We stayed in a spacious combined family room that provided an excellent layout for us. The sliding doors separating the sleeping area from the living space allowed for some privacy while still being connected. Plus, the air conditioning worked wonders in keeping us cool during the summer heat!

Refreshing Pool Experience

I enjoyed the pools tremendously. The main pool was the perfect temperature, allowing for long, enjoyable swims. The variety of pool types catered to every family member's preference, and the kids' splash park was a good addition that kept my children entertained for hours.

Our stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was stunning, right on the beach with breathtaking views. The children's pool area was spacious and had a fun atmosphere. However, we faced issues with the dining experience, where breakfast options were quite limited and didn't meet expectations. The service was hit or miss, with some helpful staff and some who lacked information. Overall, a beautiful setting, but improvements are needed in dining and some service areas.

Rooms

6.0

The rooms had a nice partition separating the children's sleeping area from the adults, which was practical. However, the bathroom shower had inconsistent pressure and temperature, making it quite frustrating to use. The cleaning staff did a fair job, providing fresh towels every other day, but the rooms could use a little updating.

Service

While some staff members were friendly and accommodating, others at the reception seemed unhelpful and not very informative, which detracted from our experience.

The hotel is situated in a lovely area, close to the beach and local restaurants, which made it easy to enjoy the surroundings. The rooms are basic but clean, with a nice view of the sea. I found the staff to be really friendly and helpful, especially at the bar. However, the dining leaves something to be desired, and there were some issues with the room's comfort. Overall, it was decent for a family getaway, but not without its flaws.

Our family vacation was overshadowed by numerous issues at the hotel. While the location right on the beach was fantastic and the pools were nice, we were incredibly disappointed with the dining options, as the food was consistently cold and unappetizing. The entertainment for children was also lacking, making our stay less enjoyable than we had hoped for. Overall, the hotel has great potential, but it desperately needs improvement in quality and service.

Rooms

The two-bedroom apartment overlooking the sea was spacious and clean, although we faced a horrible smell that required us to block the door with towels. It was big enough for our needs, but we found the cot mattress to be just sheets arranged together.
