Positives - very clean rooms, oriental and Mediterranean restaurants make a change from the main dining area and not limited to how many times you can use them. Safe in the room is great. Negatives - loungers could be cleaned. The oriental restaurant is closed on Sundays and Mondays. The pools are freezing cold. The lower ground spa pool and jacuzzi are also very cold. In my opinion for what we pay we should get heated pools. Entertainment in the M bar is good but repeated so much that it’s too much. I would expect the same stuff for each week but in two weeks I heard all of the same stuff at least 6 times, likely more. At every meal they take your room number and how many are dining and I can’t think of why. It’s all inclusive so this makes no sense to me, but maybe they have their own reasons. Overall a nice place but wouldn’t go again. I’ve had much better experiences at other all inclusives. There are two beaches, the smaller one about 5-8mins walk and 126 steps to the large one which is beautiful. Vilamora Marina is lovely and a 10-15min walk to the beautiful beach which is stunning with bars and places to eat, amazing actually.

A bit overcrowd, some restaurants are not always available without an early reservation. Cleaning is excellent but more than once the staff forgot to replace all the towels. Surroundings are safe and walkable but in a day or two you can easily visit everything there. Apart from that, we really loved everything else, especially the warm staff. We would like to come back one day.

The staff were extremely helpful and kind. They went out of their way to accommodate any of our requests. The food in the buffet was very good and had a lot of options. The Japanese restaurant was excellent. The entertainment staff were very approachable and humurous. We really had a wonderful stay! The only thing that you should know is that this is really a family oriented resort with many young children. As two adults, that part wasn't favourable, but for a family with small children, this is the place to go!

The food was excellent and we loved our room. Our only objections were that the indoor pool was a little cold. Even stranger, the jacuzzi was cold, which obviously surprised not only ourselves but other guests we watched trying to use it. We tried to see the evening entertainment and it was ok for a short time but it was very distracting and annoying to have all of the little kids dancing and running around in front of the stage, even thought it was later in the evening. The kids were fine being in attendance, even though they would not have enjoyed the music, but it would be helpful if, at the beginning of the entertainment , someone asked that everyone (including children) stay away from the space in front of the stage. While we watched it was a total day care/playground in front of the stage with kids racing each other around the area and back and forth continually. Just a suggestion. I noticed several other people, especially older people, leave early because of this.

Hotel is nice for families, quite crowded when busy. We travelled in early October and the pool bar was closed, even though it seemed like high season still. Although the hotel is kept clean it has a weird "toilet small", specially in our room and on level -1. Also, we asked for late check-out since our flight was at 8pm and traveling with a baby, they said they were fully booked, which was not the case since you could book rooms online. I then asked again and said I would pay extra if needed and they suddenly weren't fully booked!

Generally a nice resort for families, would have preferred an adult only section and pool. Coffee and tea were from a machine vs fresh and were only available at breakfast unless you went to bar to obtain. No coffee maker in room. Drinks were self serve, would have been nice to have it served.
