Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Not much happening in the area, but it’s perfect for a calm, peaceful, and quiet getaway for a couple of days. Fantastic rooftop bar, and the beach outside isn’t exactly 'private', but it’s not busy either, so it was still enjoyable. I would have preferred if sunbeds and umbrellas were offered for free, since we paid a lady for some.

Lovely hotel

The hotel was immaculate throughout. The room was very comfortable. I needed an iron and ironing board and it was delivered to the room within minutes All staff we encountered were friendly and helpful Facilities were good. Lovely balcony with sea view. Just a short drive from the busier part but we really liked this hotel and would stay there again.

Really enjoyed our stay at the hotel, staff were amazing and the property was very clean and tidy throughout. The negatives were that we felt the food options available were quite limited and also the drinks options on an all inclusive were quite restricted

Hotel was of a good standard. Lovely views of the sea from the restaurant and hotel room. Everything was clean and modern. Only criticism was the evening meals were a little boring with no real variation each night. I stayed 4 nights and that was enough for me.

I didn’t like the fact that although you paid extra for all inclusive the cocktails were horrible pre-mix things rather than proper cocktails mixed by the waiters. Also many areas are not included in the all inclusive - the roof bar and the beach bar. You could not regulate the air-con in either the gym or in your room. It was all centrally controlled and the temperature in the gym was far too hot.

Bad acoustic in the hotel - hard materials. Had a room close to the stairway at 7th floor and I slept bad due to noise from guest late night and cleaning staff in the morning. Lunch and dinner buffet is traditional all-inclusive Spanish, no fancy but ok
