Guest reviews
Fabulous
A hotel room in need of refurbishing
Liked: The room we got was at best 3 stars. Perhaps I could give it a plus for location
Disliked: Our level one villa was overpriced and clearly one of the older rooms. The bathroom light switch required pushing from 4 to 16 times to turn on. The robe hooks were falling off the wall as was the paper dispenser. There was a lamp shade at the bedside place just out of sight but close enough to hit one's head which I did on at least 10 occasions.
Disliked: Called the hotel literally 30 times no one ever answered
Lovely experience and would go again!
Liked: Very accommodating and friendly staff. Comfortable bed, room, and facilities. The breakfast offered was very satisfying. Travelling with a baby and a pet, we were well taken care of. The hotel / resort is very family friendly, and there were lots of kids and babies around, with activities and facilities catering to them. Immediate and peaceful no-fuss access from the property directly to the beach.
Disliked: Lots of guests put their towels on the pool chairs to hold them, then they disappear to go to the beach or to eat or something - there were times that the pool area was nearly empty but all the chairs had been "occupied". Discreet signage points out that unoccupied towels will be removed after 45 minutes, but it's unreasonable to expect the staff to track and time every towel situation. Also, two key cards programmed to our room suddenly stopped working, but reception was extremely friendly and prompt in rectifying the situation. The frustration was only notable because it isn't easy to manage getting locked out with a baby in one arm and a dog in the other hand.
Liked: The location, far from the dirty village. The beach was amazing, the pool was great, breakfast food was very good, activities great, availability of restaurants in the venue - fantastic.
Disliked: We booked a room with a garden and in the photos it looked like a private garden, that is why we paid extra. In reality, it was not a private garden, there were at least 6 other apartments sharing the same garden and a neighbour next door was constantly smoking marijuana so we couldn't stay in the garden or furthermore - allow our kid to play there. He smoked so much that our whole room was also smelling of marijuana, so we couldn't even keep the door open.
A lovely stay with a great atmosphere and wonderful food and setting — we only wished we’d stayed longer
Liked: Chiringuito experience was great
Disliked: A bit out of the way from the centre
Liked: Big hotel
Disliked: The Hotel is very old, poorly renovated, broken facilities in the room, swimming pool very dirty, dirty, bar closes at 23:00. Difficult to swim at the beach in front, it has rocks by the shore
