This place is good to bring kids. They have small pools next to each of the villas, which is good for privacy and for small kids. The hotel is dated, and the rooms would benefit from refurbishment. However, the good location, several pools and a small water park, as well as very close to the beach might outweight the poor décor. The food in the restaurant is OK. The service (especially Giovanni) is very good. He made our stay very pleasant.

Este hotel ha sido nuestro sitio de llegada desde años atrás. Ha mejorado muchísimo y la remodelación y ampliación de las habitaciones está increíble. Todo muy bien, salvo por un poco la actitud de las recepcionistas y esa noche se fue la luz en el pueblo y el aire acondicionado de verdad no dio. Deberían contemplar ventiladores en estos casos. Pero en general siempre será nuestro lugar de llegada favorito.

Esta muy grande y bonito, solo que por las noches hay agua fría para bañarse! El parque acuático tiene una alberca enorme con olas . Seguramente regresaremos

I went to the beach and it was quiet. They rent you the tables over the beach and you can eat and drink.

Muy mala atención en recepción, te tratan como si te estuvieran haciendo un favor o no te cobraran la habitación. Te incluyen un desayuno para el día siguiente, y como cambian de turno, llegas por tu ticket y te dicen que no es cierto! Osea, te embarcan y ya que estas adentro, resulta que nos es valido. Que coño hacen con esos ticket?
