“Lovely hotel but didn't like the resort.”

Really lovely hotel but situated in a very dirty resort.

Really lovely hotel but situated in a very dirty resort. Room was beautiful, Pool area was beautiful THE CATS WERE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL, they made our holiday and so pleased they are allowed to roam freely around the hotel. If you don't like cats then don't stay here and don't write a review moaning about them because they have as much right as we do to be in a hotel. Restaurant staff were exceptional especially the young crowd, so proffesional and smiley. The older barman could learn a few things from them, smiling being one of them. Drinks are charged to the room so you pay on checkout, good prices not too expensive apart from the cocktails they were Ibiza prices. All in all a lovely hotel. I wish all the best and happiness for all the lovely Cats, especially the 3 little kittens and their lovely Mother.

“Overall, just OK”

We stayed here for 3 nights as part of a tour group. With the room being a suite, it was a good size.

We stayed here for 3 nights as part of a tour group. With the room being a suite, it was a good size. It was nicely decorated, clean, had plenty of hanging space, the air con worked well, and had plentiful nice smelling toiletries (a full-length mirror would have been nice). However, there were some issues. The bin never got emptied for the time we were there. There was no water throughout the hotel on the first morning - we reported it at 5.20am, and it was being worked on. Thankfully, it came back on after about half an hour. On the third day, we returned from our day trip to no electricity in the room. It was quickly fixed after we reported it but when we returned to our room after dinner, there was no electricity again. It was again quickly fixed, but after returning from breakfast on the morning of departure, once again, no electricity! The corridor to our room could also have done with a good hoover as there were little bits of rubbish all over the carpet, especially bad at the start of the corridor. Also, there was a very grotty bed and two grotty mattresses sat in the corridor near our room, which wasn't great to look at and they remained there for the duration of our stay. There was a good choice of food at both breakfast and dinner, and everything tasted good. We also had lunch here one of the days we stayed, and it was delicious. The set-up of the bar and restaurant is slightly strange in that there is no dedicated sitting area at the bar. This means people having drinks sit at the tables used for the restaurant. This limited the dining space, often resulting in people standing waiting on tables to become available or, as happened to us, sharing tables with other people. Service for drinks is also very slow. There seemed to be a reluctance by the restaurant staff to take drinks orders at the table, so most people ended up ordering at the bar. But with a maximum of two bar staff on, and the bill to sign for drinks being entirely hand written, the wait for drinks usually took time. I also didn't like all the cats wandering around the restaurant. There are a lot of them. They jump up on the tables, the chairs, and they sit and look for food, which, unfortunately, some people oblige in. As a result, there are little piles of half eaten food on the restaurant floor. I even had one guest dump a pile of food at my feet for the cat that was next to our table - disgusting!

this was our second visit , but sadly our last. I will start with the good points 99% of the staff were always helpful and polite. The room was clean enough but outdated, the sofa in the lounge area was in terrible condition but useable. I f you report a issue they do fix the issue quickly, ac did not work on arrival fixed as soon as we reported it. the restaurant last year was upstairs with a fantastic view over the marina with a choice to suit anyone, this was not the case this year as they have sold that part off. now all food is served in the bar area, there is a lot of cats around which did not bother us . the choice was very limited, and we ate out most evenings, you are no longer allowed to pay for your drinks or additional food and have to book to your room and pay at the end of the week, a few reviews saying bills incorrect when you pay, we did not use this after they refused to accept cash or card. Sunbeds washed down every night but were covered in mould, and need to be replaced really. carpets in the corridors dirty and have paint stains on . no English tv apart from bbc news. entertainment was provided on 1 evening. loud music playing every night from another bar nothing the hotel can do, as this was our second visit we took ear plugs. on the whole I great hotel ruined by cost cuts unfortunately.
