Being Italian I was shocked to see the quality of the dishes being offered in the restaurants. Clearly very cheap options and same dishes would be reproposed every other day. Buffet were not replanished all the time.

Disorganizzazione totale
Aria condizionata in camera solo a freddo non possibile per tutto il villaggio a caldo,reception disastrosa che ti spedivano a destra e sinistra per qualsiasi cosa anche per avere le chiavi della camera ! Alloggiavamo al Valentino e le chiavi erano al Calane’ ad un km a piedi!!!! La camera consegnata alle 20 quando avevamo fatto il check in alle 11!! Piscine sporche , camere che non erano mai rassettate di mattina e spesso si dimenticavano! Bella struttura anche se il mare dista 15 minuti di trenino! Il posto al ristorante ci fu assegnato e ci fu detto sarebbe stato sempre lo stesso per tutta la permanenza quando al secondo giorno troviamo persone al tavolo sedute a pranzare con il nostro cognome a quel tavolo, chiediamo spiegazioni al personale e ci dissero va be ci sono altri tavoli liberi accomodatevi li ove era impresso il cognome di altri ospiti i quali ebbero lo stesso problema con noi dopo mezz’ora ! Lo chef era al corrente ma appurammo non avevano calcolato quanti ospiti avevano al pranzo poiché di sera aumentarono il numero di tavolo presenti! Cornetti che a colazione mancavano e per più di 1 ora quando dopo il caos scatenato dagli ospiti si decisero a cuocerne altri che arrivarono dopo un altra mezz’ora! Buono il cibo ma disorganizzati! Peggiori di tutti la reseption ! Per 200 euro a notte in 4 sicuramente si trova di meglio, anche se era la mia prima esperienza con bluserena non penso ritornerò in un loro villaggio!

troppa con arredamento nuovo attesa per la camera. Troppa confusione. Che senso ha non tenere le chiavi al gran valentino e costringere a tornare al calane per la consegna della chiave. Asserivano con sicurezza che non avevo pagato tramite carta. Quanto c'è voluto perchè cambiassero idea! La stanza con arredamento nuovo ma con aria condizionata sparata a mille e quindi gelata! Senza telec TV. Tutte le carenze segnalate non sono state risolte. Si provvediamo, ma non hanno fatto assolutamente nulla!

Weekend da incubo.
Bluserena con questo villaggio si è bruciato la nomea del buon villaggio per famiglie. All'arrivo check in da inferno,dalle 10 del mattino alle 14:00 non risultava la prenotazione poiché i terminali erano bloccati,file chilometriche con bambini affamati e strillanti orami anche loro avevano perso la pazienza!! Arriviamo in camera,una puzza di umidità,asciugamani puzzolenti ed umidi,tv senza telecomandi,invasione di zanzare. Arriva il momento del pranzo,tavoli mancanti e non numerati,dovevi litigare per sederti,il buffet inesistente imbarazzante,non soddisfava neanche il fabbisogno della metà delle persone,portate misere,niente buffet di dolci e frutta,una miseria in tutto a dir poco!Anche il personale alle richieste e lamentele di tutta la gente era imbarazzato,una situazione indescrivibile!! Per la spiaggia l'attesa del trenino è lunghissima,altrettanto lungo lo è il percorso in cui ti impuzzolisci di fumo di scarico del trenino. Arriviamo in spiaggia,mare pulito ma pieno di meduse in mare e scarafaggi in spiaggia,un cestino neanche a pagarlo,servizio spiaggia inesistente,non si può mangiare non c'è nulla! Per l'animazione dei bambini,un flop,la mia bambina di 3 anni è una fans della mascotte Serenella ma ovviamente neanche quella c'era e mia figlia è rimasta anche lei delusa!! I bagni senza fasciatoio,la cucina per le mamme non operativa. L'unica cosa positiva è la piscina di acqua salata e quella per i bambini.

Settimana all'insegna del relax e del divertimento in modo particolare per i bambini. I miei bimbi si sono divertiti moltissimo grazie soprattutto allo staf di animazione, composto da giovani che hanno messo in atto spettacoli molto divertenti,in modo particolare ringrazio Serena,Giusy,Annamaria,e Mary,ragazze dolcissime che sanno come far divertire i bimbi. Le giornate sono scandite sempre da qualche attivita' fatta dagli animatori, insomma non ci si annoia mai.consigliatissimo....bellissima vacanza.

In un contesto di splendida riserva naturale il villaggio accoglie più di mille persone in maniera egregia. A disposizione due ampie e suggestive piscine, di cui una salata, e tutti i servizi spiaggia dove si arriva con un buon servizio navetta di pochi minuti (a piedi circa 30 min.). Infine ampia, abbondante e di qualità la cucina insieme con una professionale animazione completano uno splendido soggiorno.
