Absolutely stunning hotel. It’s worth noting that some facilities are only open in the summer season. The outdoor pool is open from April onwards and they have a kids’ pool but it’s not well signposted. The indoor pool costs extra as it’s part of the spa but it’s sooooo good. The kids’ club doesn’t allow adults to stay and my 3-year-old didn’t enjoy it for that reason. Older kids will enjoy it.

Très déçu

Formule all inclusive sommaire car 2 restaurants étaient fermé donc uniquement buffet. Les cocktails sont fait a l'avance et beaucoup trop sucré et mal dosés...la chambre est usé par rapport au photos, l'accès à l'aquaparc est super loin et un grosse côte à monter, pas d'accès direct a la plage 1km a faire a pied...le restaurant buffet est bruyant ça crie et ça court vers les buffets dans tous les sens c'est vraiment....horrible...enfin l'environnement est très bétonné peu d'espace vert.

It took over 20 minutes to check In, we weren’t allowed to upgrade to all inclusive, my credit card details were written on a piece of paper (terrible security risk) and we were charged a fortune for a paper cup of beer which was only 3/4 full (fine if you’re all inclusive and can refill but paying resort prices should be a glass and a full drink!) the property is also in need of some upgrades/renovations.

A week spent with a family early April 2024

We traveled with our two children, aged 8 and 2. Despite our second child almost turning 3, the indoor playground had a strict age limit of 3 years old and above. The weather during the first few nights was rainy and cold, and when we asked for entertainment options suitable for a two-year-old, the staff seemed unsure.There was only one large, unheated outdoor pool, which felt freezing cold for this time of year. Additionally, the indoor pool with a spa was not included in the all-inclusive package and required extra payment, but even that water was not very warm.Although the food was okay and the staff were friendly, overall, it was a pleasant but short stay, and we don't plan to return.
