Property is old and poorly maintained. The food service is terrible. The main restaurant is extremly small for all the people in the resort, so everybody is always on top of each other to try to get to the food. The birds and pidgeons walk over the food trays...just awful... You can only try one of theme restaurants and the one we tried was on the side of the main property and next to another hotel which seems to be abandoned. The building of the restaurant is also old and poorly maintained, with very limited food options. On top of all this, when we got there and went to sleep in the first night, the bed and the wall behind the bed was full with ants and other small bugs. We asked to solve this and the staff actually solved our problem quickly by changing us to another room which was much better maintained and clean. The only reason I don't rate this with only 1 star is because the staff is actually competentent. Bottom line, the value that is paid doesn't match what you get. Never staying there again

Will never go back, good for families.
Wasn’t prepared for such a family oriented place. It was not the type of stay we were looking for. Too many lines for EVERYTHING, and screaming kids. We saw huge cockroaches near food; and probably the worst part was for an “all-inclusive resort” they charged just to use an unbrela/chair at the beach. I could go on, but I want to forget it, very disappointed!

Ideal for a special holiday.
This holiday was a special occasion for us as we were on "honeymoon".We thought it an idyllic setting and the 9km beach was breathtaking. The staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough to make our holiday memorable.We had champagne on ice & chocolates on our arrival & as it was my "husband's" birthday during our stay,they arranged for a birthday cake be sent to our room,all complimentary....very special touches. The food was delicious and plenty of variation. We even had a champagne breakfast one morning! We would love to go back here and would definitely recommend the hotel and The Expedia Team for their help and guidance when booking.We upgraded to a pool side balcony view and are so glad we did this .

A lovely hotel location on an 8km sandy beach
The hotel and its location are good,very clean ,with good overall amenities and hit the 5* rating for us.It is best suited to families with small children who are happy to spend time around the pool or on the beach as the Island is quite isolated.The bedrooms are compact but well designed -well fitted and good air con.The food range just met 5* star ----but the main dining area was undersize---there were almost always queue's for entry and the inner/enclosed area was hot and sticky,with too much cooking smell and vapour eminating from the chef manned open grill at the rear - too poorly ventilated.The house white and red wines were extremely poor quality--I'd rate at 1 euro per bottle at best(youcan buy dozens of good quality different brands in the supermarket in the town for 1 to 3 euro's ).The manager we spoke too was very dismissive about our wine concerns,didn't argue the points and simply "told us" to pay for the better wines that the hotel had available---not a 5 * provision by far----many people were leaving their glasses after 1 sip.

Nice hotel, far from main city center
Hotel is beautiful, but pretty far from the main city center 2 miles or so. They offer a Free shuttle, but it's a first come first serve basis. There are a few restaurants that you can walk to outside of the hotel grounds, but not too many options. Overall, beach was beautiful, food was good and would go back.

Ich denke das schönste Hotel auf der Insel. Sehr schöne, weitläufige und gepflegte Hotelanlage. Das Essen war ok, man hatte auch die Möglichkeit in Themenrestaurants zu essen, das hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Zu jeder Tageszeit die Möglichkeit etwas zu essen oder zu trinken. Bilderbuchhafter Strand, tolle Insel, sehr nettes, höfliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Es war ein traumhafter Urlaub.

El hotel estaba muy bien, amplio aunque nunca había amacas disponibles ni en la piscina ni en la playa. El trato general del personal correcto y amable. Lo peor de todo para ser un cinco estrellas y cobrar el dineral que cobran, las bebidas malísimas de muy bajo nivel y en buffet corto escaso, repetitivo, ponían lo mismo todos los días comida y cena y malísima calidad. Varios días comimos fuera por este motivo aún teniendo pagada la comida. no recomendable no repetiría
