I've just come back from a fantastic week at Voi Daniela Essentia and already thinking of booking for next year. The resort was busy but quiet. It never looked crowded which made the holiday a lot more relaxing. The rooms are spacious and the beds are extremely comfortable and really big in size, possibly a uk queen size if not bigger. The pillows are slightly too thick for my likings but that did not spoil my sleeps! The resort is spotless! There is a great selection of food. We opted for half board. Although, one evening we went out for dinner and the hotel switched the dinner for the lunch, super accommodating. On the last day, we checked out at 3am and were given a very generous breakfast to go! Croissant, jams, french toasts, biscuits, an apple and some water! The staff is really friendly. There are plenty of sport activities during the day (yoga, aquagym, muscle awekening, padel, football, volleyball) and a different show every evening. My boys enjoyed the mini club too. There is also a photographer. The gym could do with a revamp but you find all the basics (dumbells, running nachine etc..). There is a train managed by the hotel which takes you from the hotel to the beach and we could also use the 2 local electric cars/trains. The alternative is to walk which is also very pleasant. 1-2km walk, absolutely fine to do. The hotel provides 1 set of beach towels per person for free, they can be returned and exchanged for 2€. We had an amazing time!

Una struttura elegante, dotata di ogni servizio, immerso nella macchia mediterranea che dà su spiaggia privata, pensione mezza e completa. Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Un luogo tranquillo adatto a coppie e famiglie, con serate organizzate e animazione molto soft, un' attenzione al cibo inaspettata. Personale internazionale e sempre disponibile. Di contro si gradirebbe una più attenta pulizia quotidiana. Consigliatissimo.

Ótimo!

Gostei muito do hotel, tem uma estrutura muito boa, funcionários muito solícitos e educados. O quarto é amplo e confortável, as refeições tem bastante opções, tem transfer para praia saindo do hotel, música ao vivo a noite na piscina, atividades ao longo do dia, fora que o hotel fica pertinho de Torre Sant'Andrea, que pra mim foi a praia mais bonita da região! Única consideração que eu tenho é que a água do chuveiro era muito fraca, então demorava bastante para conseguir lavar o cabelo.
