A Pleasant Surprise Beyond Expectations
Contrary to some of the reviews we had read, we were pleasantly surprised by our stay at this hotel. The food was good, and there was a wide variety to choose from. Contrary to what some reviews suggested, the waitstaff were not rude at all; everyone was incredibly kind and helpful, especially with our little one.
We arrived late in the evening, and although the receptionist mentioned that we had half an hour before the restaurant closed, she quickly gave us our wristbands and told us to head to dinner first, then complete the check-in process afterward. They also prepared a thoughtful care package for us with sandwiches, mineral water, fruit, and dessert. I’ve read some complaints about this, but in my opinion, it was a very kind and considerate gesture. Our room was extremely spacious, beautifully furnished, and the balcony was huge. The bathroom was also in perfect condition. This was the first time I experienced an aqua park with saltwater, but it didn’t feel overly salty. After leaving the water, it didn’t sting or leave a salty feeling on the skin. The pools were highly enjoyable, even with a baby. There were plenty of sun loungers and space available.
One thing I found a bit odd was that they charged €4 for an umbrella, but it was a small fee and not a major issue. The nearby beach was fascinating with its glittering black sand and gently sloping ocean. We were lucky to enjoy a nice water temperature as well. The restaurant was very spacious with ample seating both inside and outside. The food selection was diverse and suited all tastes. I especially appreciated that the restaurant wasn’t strict with the dress code. While swimwear wasn’t allowed, they were fine with beachwear, which made dining much more convenient.
The hotel snack bar was also great; they alternated between hamburgers and hot dogs. I personally enjoyed the hot dog more, but both were tasty. They also offered salads, sandwiches, desserts, and fruits for anyone who might get hungry between meals, although the lunch options were generous enough that this wasn’t often necessary. There were two different coffee machines in the restaurant, and there was a noticeable difference in the taste of the coffee. If you don’t like one, I suggest trying the other. The coffee itself was very good, and the selection of carbonated drinks was also nice.
As for the elevators, they were indeed a bit slow, as some reviews mentioned, but this was mainly because there were only two elevators, and people would press both buttons, causing the elevators to stop unnecessarily.
The hotel itself is in great condition, although I did notice that the carpet in the hallway on the 6th floor (I’m not sure about the other floors) was a bit worn, giving the hallway a slightly run-down appearance. However, the lobby was very impressive, and the furniture in the rooms was in excellent condition.
The cocktails at the bar were not watered down at all – they were delicious, especially the sangria. You could also ask for ice cream anytime from the bar, along with juice for the kids, since the poolside drink machine didn’t offer non-carbonated options for them. However, the alcohol-free cocktails were a big hit with the little ones.
Overall, our experience was wonderful, and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.

We spent a long weekend here with family. The hotel is decent enough and the location was nice, we were on the all inclusive package. We're not big drinkers, but the alcohol here was very bad. It had to be watered down or very low percentage, because none of the cocktails had any effect on us at all, even when asking for doubles and having multiple drinks. As soon as we went to an off site restaurant and had one drink, we could feel the alcohol effect immediately.

Hotel is lovely the rooms are lovely but it gets let down so badly by the food it’s really bad
Be prepared to bring extra money to eat out as the food some evenings could not even eat.
The water park is fantastic.
Please be aware that the road to the local village is shut due to rockslide so you have to take a longer cab journey that cost 20 euros each way instead 5.
Extra spending money is a must when staying here.

I stayed here for a week, with 2 children (12 years old) the hotel was very clean, with the room being cleaned and bed linen being changed daily. The all inclusive food was generally good, out of 7 days I enjoyed it 5x, the other 2 days nothing to my fancy so I just had the pizza and chips which are on the menu daily. The entertainment isn’t great for the kids it is aimed at under 8s, plenty of shops around for the kids to shop in, bracelet's etc. water sports close by, the beach is nice! The pool area is well maintained and is fairly busy but with plenty of space in the pool, i would recommend it here and the kids also said they would go back. I’d score it 8/10, it could improve on entertainment.

We came here with 2 kids, 10 & 11 for 2 weeks. The room was big enough. The beds are a little hard. Only 2 chairs to sit on as sofa is made into bed. The view from the balcony was very nice, especially at night. Cleaners kept the room very clean, and nothing was too much trouble. It's not a 4-star hotel but a very good 3 star. Staff were friendly and helpful. Due to the location, 2 weeks in one place is too long, unless you like doing nothing, so I recommend booking some trips out. The beech is a 2 minute walk where you can book paragliding and jet skis. The water park included gets very busy on Saturday and Sunday with big ques an hour before opening. The hotel needs touching up in places, but for the most part, it is very clean.
