    The room was very small and needed refurbishment. During our 7-night stay our bed sheets were not changed not even once. The elevator was too slow and it was not enough for such a huge hotel. During the first part of our stay it was too crowded during the meals and we needed to wait in line to enter the restaurant and then to get food. The staff at the reception was not very friendly.

    The location was great. The food was nice, especially the dinner. The staff left us a bottle of wine which was a nice touch.

    Have visited this hotel a number of years ago and it has been upgraded by in my opinion 2 stars . Outside it looks the same [ apart from new sun loungers ] but the inside is a treat , rooms and dining area . A pleasant surprise !

    I didn't like the fact that two double beds were reserved, and there were four single beds available, as well as a bunk bed, which is not suitable for our girls.

    The location is great. The staff is also good.

    The light on the balcony was very bright without a possibility to dim it if you go to sleep. Had to cover it with something. Some guests smoked on the swimming pool area regardless of the kids and other guests around, so it would be nice to make people aware of a designated area for smokers. If there were announcements about this and also some misbehaving in the pool, I think people would be making less trouble.

    We loved everything. Literally. Food was gorgeous, so diverse. The only thing it would be nice to have some fresh juices and sugar free drinks for diabetic people and children. Even though there was a queue before the restaurant, Marta was handling everything so professionally. Spacious rooms with all mod cons. Cleaning can be done even every day if requested. So close to the beach and the city centre. Whatever you can seek in a great hotel, you will be able to find here.

    What I didn't like at this place is the restaurant.. If you pay for all inclusive and then you need to wait for food..food wasn't that nice I am sorry but everyday rice was uncooked..only what I like was breakfast..and the stuff at the kitchen omg...they faces...not friendly at all. It's look like they don't like they work maybe or I don't know..but it's.nice to smile at people if they ask you for something...

    I like this place and hotel was everyday clean..nice people ,stuff..I was 😊 happy.

    My son has a nut allergy and, after talking to the head chef that evening, the next day key dishes were labelled with allergens and vegetarian information symbols - great response. Luggage room available which was great as we had an evening flight.

    Very comfortable hotel with well-designed rooms, but the staff is a bit not smiley and the food is not so decent. However, price is not so overwhelming, so still fair.

    Breakfast needs more options, this is a hotel with 4 stars, for this frequency of people definitely need more food options.

    Hotel is very nice, clean, spacious and in a great location. The room was big, clean with a nice bathroom and balcony. Balcony was watching on the mountain and the main road and was pretty quiet, the side with the pool was very noisy. Staff was nice and polite. Location is great, near the beach, a big mercadona market is nearby and only a train station is far away (it said on a map you need a 15 min but personalny think is a little bit far away). The main entrance is on lower street.
