Dec 22, 2025Amazing place
Stayed here for 2 weeks commencing 24th November we nearly cancelled because of the awful reviews we are so glad we didn't room was spotless cleaned every day food was really good how people can say the buffet is repeatative really you could stay here for 3 months and have something different every day as for the bar staff being unfriendly we booked with Tui and spent most of the time at the Tui pool staff were really friendly and Ramon was great we enjoyed it so much we have booked to return same time next year we can't wait

Dec 22, 2025Nice Enough.
Very basic hotel more of a 3* than anything more. Clean enough. Rooms are VERY dated lots of bits falling apart. Food was good and lots of choice. The staff are what make the hotel, they are all so friendly and accommodating.

Nice location
Nice hotel beautiful location on the beach. Staff were great for service mostly friendly and helped when needed. Food was nice had a great selection each day but a little repetitive but there is restaurants to use and the steak house was nice if you can get seated. Drinks were good lovely selection and not shy on how much they put in them. Rooms were clean and spacious cleaned when required with a mini bar stocked each 2 days of pop and beer,water. Entertainment wasn't great not much for the kids about 20 minutes at 8pm then mostly just dancers or solo singers performing not worth the watch to be honest. Pools were nice TUI has a private guest area we used often with a bar tiles were missing around the pool but nothing worth complaining about it was tidy and clean. Not a 4* hotel in our opinion but there are better ones next door you could stay with and better perks.

Friendly staff Issues always resolved quickly As with any AI food a bit hit or miss but even the fussiest person won’t starve Pool area should be cleaned every night but wasn’t, cigarette butts lying around and cigars. At one point there was a dirty nappy left on a lounger! But this is down to entitled guests, doesn’t take much to clean up after yourself! My room was basic but clean. Beds super comfy!
