  : Close location to airport.
  : It was a huge complex and the breakfast was appalling.

  : Stayed here as it was the closest hotel to where our family had hired a villa. We paid 88 for one night for two for an all inclusive! Not a luxury resort but cant complain for value for money. Room fitted with air con. Not the most comfortable mattress but we both slept well. Food was as you expect from an all inclusive. We stayed in a 4 start inclusive on the same visit and food was very similar. The hotel provides you with a cup per person for drinks around the resort which is a great idea to reduce plastic waste. Plenty of parking space.
  : Access to beach was via steep staircase. Gave up after the hundredth step.

  : Private little bungalows, AC working nicely, good food with fish every day, tennis courts, nice swimming pools, amazing water in the sea just down the stairs (a lot of them but it's well worth the effort), entertainment every evening from 9-11pm and night club every evening from 11:30pm-2amFree parking outside. 18min to the airport by carAll inclusive is from 8-23 but from 23:30-2am you can buy drinks from the night club, reasonable priced 7 euro for a cocktail and 3 euro for a shot, well worth it cause its real alcohol not like the stuff from all inclusive
  : Very outdated, lots of things don't work anymore or are in terrible shape (mini golf etc) a lot of activities don't even take place even thou they are advertised (volleyball, waterpolo, archery...) No coffee in the main restaurant for lunch or dinner. Alcohol (vodka, whiskey, rum, gin tequila) is 25% so if you want to get in the mood you need to buy proper alcohol from the supermarket by the reception (about 18 euros for a bottle)

  : Staff were really friendly and entertainment was so much fun. Just overall an amazing stay for a cheap holiday. Lunch and dinner were delicious and had plenty of options. Fish options were always there for those who are pescatarians and they also have other meat options. Every night was different which we loved!
  : The breakfast wasnt great - especially for vegetarians. Items were limited.

  : They have a really big property, with many options of spaces to relax, 3 pools, yoga and activities, great view for the ocean.
  : I think the caf should close a bit later, or at least leave a machine of coffee and drinks outside, as there are not many options around in the area.I didn't like the music, I think it should be a bit more chill out, to give a resort "spa" vibes... but I understand what most people like.

  : Reception staff not the best, no smiles,looking bored and annoyed. Rest of the staff quite great,especially in the bars.We stayed in one of the bungalows,the view is great, air con working, however, I agree with rest of the comments,that in a need of repair. Also private. The whole ground is good looking with nice views, with a bit of refurb this could be an amazing place where to stay. Dinner is very basic, but not bad at all. No beach towels,bring your own. Make sure to keep the receipt for the plastic cup deposit or it will not be returned. Reception should make this obvious upon check in. On a budget, a great place to spend few days, especially if you have a car and want to visit any outside attractions.

  : 2 Star Resort so expect nothing more. The bar, restaurant and pool areas were fabulous and very family friendly. Entertainment every night until 11pm SHARP, some nights were questionable but enjoyable all the same. Couldn't fault the all inclusive food and drinks - amazing selection for every meal. All drinks are served in your own plastic cup (provided by the resort) - great idea once you get used to it. The location of the resort is off the beaten track - we needed to hire a car to get around. But all in all great value for money, would recommend it to a friend and would definitely go back.
  : Downside to our enjoyable stay was our room unfortunately. Broken air con unit, smell of damp and not to mention a major ant infestation. Rooms could do with a serious revamp, lots of bad DIY ''fix it'' jobs. On a more positive note - the bed sheets, towels and bathroom were spotless. Another family member had an identical room next door with none of the above complaints so guess it's just the luck of the draw.
