I am a solo traveller. I felt very safe at this hotel the ladies and gentlemen on reception were so welcoming and helpful if you had a problem were always their to help . The cleaning ladies so friendly and doing an amazing job clean towels and sheets every day. The room was very clean and spacious. I only had one problem it was with the food. Cold meats ham, turkey etc are put out for breakfast. When it comes to lunch and Dinner later no cold meats to go with the salad as all the hot food has sauces that do not really mix with salad. The pool area looked lovely and also very clean but I am a beach person. But would definitely recommend an I would stay again. All the staff are doing a great job !!

We came over for October half term and was very concerned after reading the reviews online. We were overall very happy with our stay. Thought the food choice was great, drink choice good, rooms big and clean and always got a sun bed no matter what time of day we got to the pool. We did trick or treating round the other hotels in the area on Halloween and actually I far preferred our more chilled out hotel as the others seemed so big and busy. Entertainment is ok, usual hotel entertainment that is shared with the other hotels and there are lots of things to do for kids in that area, but all at extra cost so make sure you have some euros! I would say there were only a couple of downsides to the hotel itself, absolutely no entertainment in the evening, there was one night when it rained so couldn’t sit at the outside entertainment bit so sat at the hotel bar but would be good if a singer or something is also going on there, also be better if there was another pool table as there was a queue for it all the time. Pool was a bit cold, and annoying that the kids weren’t allowed to play ball or have inflatables but is what it is. Beach was nice and we went to a couple of bars down there to watch football and have lunch so more there than was expecting. We had a lovely relaxing time. Overall we had a nice stay and would recommend it to people looking for a fairly chilled week in the sun.

“Some much needed balance.”

To all of the people that go away and look for a cracked tile to photograph, a chip/crack in a plate or maybe a cockroach, I would normally ask this: Why do you even go on holiday!? You're not going to be happy anywhere, so stay at home and be miserable, but with a few more quid in your pocket. Lea… more

To all of the people that go away and look for a cracked tile to photograph, a chip/crack in a plate or maybe a cockroach, I would normally ask this: Why do you even go on holiday!? You're not going to be happy anywhere, so stay at home and be miserable, but with a few more quid in your pocket. Leave having fun to the rest of us. This time though, I want say thanks to you. You came out in sufficient numbers this time to lower my expectations and I was therefore very pleasantly surprised in almost every area. Rooms: Large, well provisioned and cleaned to a high standard every single day. Powerful showers that have no fluctuation in temperature at all, these were a real plus. I won't comment on beds, it's always silly to, because what's comfortable to one person, won't be to another and vice versa. For me personally though, an extra pillow would've been good. I could obviously have asked for this though, had it been a big problem. Food: Way better than we expected after the reviews. Always hot and plenty enough choice. Drinks: Exactly as we'd expect. Staff: All the hotel staff were perfectly friendly and helpful. Maybe those that have encountered (allegedly) rude staff should try speaking to them better, using a little Spanish and generally just being polite themselves. We've travelled extensively over the years and have NEVER had rude staff in a hotel, but we always pile our dishes etc neatly after use, say 'Gracias' when they're collected, 'Buenos dias' to the cleaners... It's really not hard. However... The old guy down at the entertainment area bar (separate from the hotel, but part of the chain/all inclusive) really needs to be reigned in about how he slams drinks down and addresses some customers (not me), which were mainly from the other hotel. I mentioned it as an observation to the bar manager there, but he didn't want to hear it. Part of the reason I only gave 4 stars. Pool: Absolutely freezing cold. No jumping in (walking into a pool that cold is strictly the behaviour of psychopaths!), no balls, inflatables... Not much fun for little ones and the other reason for only 4 stars. Waterpark: Brilliant. We went 29/10 - 5/11 and there were no queues at all, so we could cram loads in. There are absolutely loads of sunbeds available too. To the management - Thanks for a great stay. I would definitely recommend the hotel and think that, for what we paid, it represents fantastic value.

“Good but not 4 star”

I'm here for 2 weeks and have 4 days left. The hotel I wouldn't rate 4 star, more 3 star. 3 choices of cocktails, the slush puppy drinks for kids you have to pay for, other than that the food is nice and plenty choice. The swimming pool is adequate and you aren't allowed to reserve sunbeds. Li… more

I'm here for 2 weeks and have 4 days left. The hotel I wouldn't rate 4 star, more 3 star. 3 choices of cocktails, the slush puppy drinks for kids you have to pay for, other than that the food is nice and plenty choice. The swimming pool is adequate and you aren't allowed to reserve sunbeds. Lifeguard pretty strict, no balls, floating, jumping in!. Rooms are nice and clean but my shower/bath did leak quite a bit onto the floor. My room wasn't ready on arrival at 2pm so had to wait until 3pm so just sat at pool bar. The guy on reception is quite rude and not at all helpful, a couple of the waitresses are also rude and a smile wouldn't go a miss. Towels for the pool you pay 20 euro deposit but if you want clean ones it's 1 euro per change per towel, so they still want to make their money, pretty bad for a 4 star hotel. Enjoyed the holiday but definitely not 4 star
