Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A AThe hotel is located immediate at the beach. It is a family friendly hotel. More than half of the guests were families of the infant in the adolescence (0-16). Mainly there were british, spanish, a few eastern european guests (such as russians, poland) represented. At that time we were the only German guests. Average Age: 0-99 Years. On the sea side, the hotel is quiet, since adjoining on the beach, there were no other hotels with restaurant and cafe's/no restaurants, but only apartments. On the other hand, the u-shaped balconies to the entertainment area/arena. The entertainment is about until 24:00 o'clock more accordingly loud. Afterwards it was quiet, but you don't hear the disco visitors or tourists seeking guests. However, you can also be overlooked. For a three star hotel, we were completely satisfied.
Location
The bay is small, but ideal for families with small children. The water was clear and calm. The water temperatures are at 28 degrees. It was partly bathtub warm immediate at the beach. The beach is guarded and very clean, but extremely smooth visited. You can see the evening eight o'clock on the beach and it was always pleasantly warm. Via a flight of stairs at the end of the beach can be reached in five minutes walk, the other small bay, the not so crowded. The other three bays could be reached via the hotel inturotel cala esmeralda in five to 15 minutes walk (in a row following). These are the same as the beach of the hotel. From the hotel you need just cross the street and reach the smile, the spread of cala ferrera (small) to cala d'or (much larger).
The service is fast, good and neutral in the friendliness. The vVerständigung wraps the spanish and English language from.
Problems or circumstances should you on the front desk due to the understanding and language barriers.
Gastronomy
As all inclusive bucher has several times on the day the opportunity to eat. The breakfast is varied and is limited to the usual border (until 10:30 h) in addition. Ideal for those that want to sleep, but from a certain time is' rush hour ' and we must try for a seat and one must here and there a bit longer to make the hotel was little guests. That is why the preparation in the kitchen was fixed, but the one or the other is already times partly burnt or not yet. I thought it was not too bad. The same applies to the dinner. The food selection for lunch was the same as in the evening (maybe a bit limited), however, it is quiet of tourists.
Sport & Entertainment
For the children of the world of entertainment during the day and in the evening much. The hotel offers a minigolf course, for all-inclusive-night free of charge is available to guests. In the entrance area of the hotel are several pcs payment (10 minutes = 1 €) available. The pool is in the front area of the hotel. The hotel entrance and the area about ten meters along the road and you can get to the area of the pool with a bar. I personally not so nice, as this area was out of the way. We have therefore not the area used and right on the beach. But we were also no pool-goer. The pool was always full visited. The hotel has a diving school for good rate.
Room
the rooms had a normal size, as with other hotels also. The bathroom was a little bigger than we thought. Cleanliness was important for me. The room every day cleaned and the towels were changed on request. Of course, there were traces of use, such as light mold in the joints and Badewannenecke deposits, but not me disturbed for those stay nine days. For extreme pingel are four stars perhaps better. For other otherwise ok.
Tips and recommendations
I have heard from locals, that the best travel time should be September, since there are not so extremely hot and the water is still heated. Furthermore, there is the rush the netherlands reduced. So many spanish then there vacation. The October will also be in order, but it can also times rain and temperature of 23 degrees the declined.
