  : Check in was completed on line so no waiting around when we arrived. We was offered the option to upgrade from half board to all inclusive. We worked it out this would be a btter option for us for the week. Views from main reception over looking the sea were amazing, as we was high up from the main street level. Our room was a decent size, although we would have liked a double bed. Cleaning was good, toiletries suppled were Aloe Vera products smelt lovely and were really good. Toiletries supplied were, tooth brush pack, shaver kit, showr cap, soap and moisturising lotion on pump. As well as sampoo and conditioner in the shower so saved space in our bag. Verous choices of food and fruit available daily. Fresh meats cooked to order. There would be something for everyone to choose from at meal times. Staff were friendly at all times, helped with any enquiry we had. The cleaners were always working hard all the time to keep the hotel clean.
  : The transfer from the airport was late, we had to wait about an hour or so before our transfer arrived. The transfer time from the airport to location was well over an hour. I did not realise the transfer time before booking this hotel. Location of the hotel is on a hill, the resort is stagered over different levels. I struggled some days in the heating getting upand down the resort. There were ramps and stairs, so it is user friendly for prams. This was the only negative side to our stay at the hotel, was the verious levels to reach certain parts of the resort.

  : Slushy was good.
  : Horrendous food, everything was filthy and dirty (glasses, plates, floor). Room was full of dust and everything was dirty and untouchable. Staff was very incapable and passive to fulfill any requests. Some proactive thinking was missing. Worst hotel on the island (we visited in one summer 6 hotels and this one was the worst in every category).

  : Got free upgrade to room with sea view. - Lot of parking space on the street. - Location - you can use gate from hotel area and use elevator to get lower and then few minutes walk to beach
  : No solid barrier between balconies. - Corridor in my section was open to outside and through room door there was sometimes repeating noise at night - like slamming with containers
