It took over 20 minutes to check In, we weren’t allowed to upgrade to all inclusive, my credit card details were written on a piece of paper (terrible security risk) and we were charged a fortune for a paper cup of beer which was only 3/4 full (fine if you’re all inclusive and can refill but paying resort prices should be a glass and a full drink!) the property is also in need of some upgrades/renovations.

A week spent with a family early April 2024
We traveled with our two children, aged 8 and 2. Despite our second child almost turning 3, the indoor playground had a strict age limit of 3 years old and above. The weather during the first few nights was rainy and cold, and when we asked for entertainment options suitable for a two-year-old, the staff seemed unsure.There was only one large, unheated outdoor pool, which felt freezing cold for this time of year. Additionally, the indoor pool with a spa was not included in the all-inclusive package and required extra payment, but even that water was not very warm.Although the food was okay and the staff were friendly, overall, it was a pleasant but short stay, and we don't plan to return.

The reception is amazing, great for pictures. All the staffs are extremely friendly. The recreation for kids and adults is good, but could improve with more options all day. The food is ok, the dessert area have a lot options, but everything taste the same. In general was great. My son had the best time of his life. We are count the days to be back next year.

Our stay was amazing! The resort is remote but there are cabs which are easily ordered at reception which can take you into town. The facilities in the hotels were incredible and the entertainment was some of the best I have seen in a hotel. The fact that you could chose between 3 very different acts each night was great! Our room was also very clean and big with plenty of space for 4 people and there was only 2 of us! Thank you so much for an amazing holiday!

Don’t believe that all that is listed in the description is available at the actual hotel. I.e. we seen that from listing that it had a Lazy River, this was actually located at the beach club a short shuttle away. You can not buy a dingy you have to rent @ €10 €10 deposit each per day for a few hours only. The room was not as modern as we thought from the pictures the Wi-Fi was not working and in our room and staff couldn’t care when reported. We actually thought paying extra for seaview suite with terrace would include at least sun lounges but no it didn’t. The maids would only leave 2 towels on days unless asked to leave 4. The pillows where very uncomfortable only providing 1 long pillow per bed. The pull out bed was uncomfortable for our teenage daughter as she could feel the springs and she is fine made up so not due to weight. The food was nice plenty of choice, the drinks where hidden so you could see what was on offer unless it was the premium drinks which where expensive at €9 each. Bar closed at 12 and lights on all terraces switched off. Public Transport very good and very reasonable between the 2 neighbouring towns. Most of the best night entertainment seemed to be in the holiday resort village. All inclusive didn’t cover food or drink in sister hotels if you wanted to attend the shows. The beach club on Sunday also an extra cost for drinks. Safe in room was a daily charge as well, AI, No, charge where they can
