  Liked: Located city Centre, close to shopping and other amenities. Buffet breakfast and dinners were just ok.. nice swimming pools etc..

  Disliked: The hotel is quiet old and a bit run down. We had the 2 bed villa x 5 nights family of 4, there was no heating or AC in the living room / hall, struggled a couple of days 1st week of Jan 26. Bed rooms are too small, cleaner come daily for a quick show, quick moping covering half of floor, unless specifically asked don't even change the towels or bed sheets. Poor value for money €540 / day rate half board is highly over priced for such facilities.

  Nice bungalows and receptive staff, even with a few small areas of improvement worth staying

  Liked: The 2-bed bungalows were great, especially with kids. A little odd that the larger room has the 2 separated twin beds vs being the master, but I guess more room for the kids. Fully stocked kitchen as well. Lunch and dinner buffets were better than expected, staff was broadly friend - especially front staff desk was very receptive to feedback. The entertainment was surprisingly good, almost a shame only a few people watched each night.

  Disliked: Some small areas show wear, for example it's nice having a small putt-putt but it sure could use some new turf. Kids club was a big disappointment, we showed up for a 'craft hour' and the single young man staff said they didn't so any special activities because kids might not want to join them - obviously wasn't someone with much experience with kids.

  Excellent sunny Christmas vacation

  Liked: Overall, a great experience at this hotel. Three aspects stood out in particular: (1) Excellent breakfast selection – while the offerings were similar each day, there was enough variety to choose different options every morning. (2) Impressive sports facilities – multiple tennis and padel courts were available, with equipment rentals offered on site. (3) Private rooftop bungalow area – the rooftop with sunbeds was perfect for relaxing and enjoying some quiet, private time.

  Disliked: I wouldn’t say there was anything I truly disliked, but there are a few areas that could be improved: (1) Omelette station efficiency – on some mornings the wait time was just 2–3 minutes, but on others it could exceed 10 minutes. This seemed more related to the cooking process than the number of guests. (2) Bed comfort – the mattresses could definitely be upgraded, as they were not very comfortable.
