There were two couples resulting in hotel with all inclusive. The hotel consists of two former hotels, which are connected by a small bridge. There is also a separate block of apartments. We had our room directly over the entrance/desk and the other couple in the 'other' Hotel. Our rooms were large, both bedroom/living room, bathroom, and a balcony. The decor was okay, but had to for the use of the safe and tv to be paid extra. Furthermore, it should be noted, that the bed in our room was a bit soft, while in the other room was relatively hard. The bed frame was not the newest but served its purpose and we could sleep on the bed without problems. Concerning the room to say, that these are very clairaudient. We, over the hotel entrance our room had, heard all arriving and departing guests, as well as the people in front of the hotel or it passed and talking. The other couples had a few restaurants/bars across the street, its noises and partly odors came to the room. Both rooms had a view of the street, or you look across the hotel/restaurant/Bar... The restaurant of the complex ' is located in one of the lower floor of the hotel building. When you want to have breakfast and the lunch is all during the opening hours of the restaurants themselves. The time for dinner is by means of a color map, which you got at check-in, assigned. On the breakfast you can actually very little to complain about. There are, among other things, cold cuts (cheese and sausage sorts), granola, kellogs, eggs, sausage, ... And to drink of water juices, tea and coffee actually something for everyone. Unfortunately, there seemed to be no fresh juices. At lunch and dinner, you could choose between fish or meat, there were different salads, as well as side dishes (the variety was but sizes). In this respect, it should be mentioned, that you always had the pitch, which was the best prepared (most of it was relatively bland, as should have been It was cooked for too long or partly on too long). There was always dessert, but there are fruit, cake or ice cream could. The seating in the restaurant and the rest of the hotel, you can still say, some seating that have stains of sunscreen. Between lunch and dinner you could help yourself to a snack, or you were served. The meals were much too long in the warming, so that one here was full but no joy arises. In the all inclusive included were several soft drinks and a limited selection of alcoholic beverages. This is to, already pre-mixes the cocktails from the machines were tapped taste and except for a few exceptions very strong alcohol. Soft drinks and beverages, (with Eisklötzchen) pure is served in order. Since however several bars and restaurants, and you can actually on the all inclusive food and drink and better (than the prices in the restaurants and bars in the area but I cannot say, we have felt ourselves with the all-inclusive bound to the hotel). In the hotel there was also a room with slot machines and a pool table. Another pool table was in the proximity of the hotel bar. The staff was always friendly and had plenty of language skills in English and German. The distance to the beach is low: in order to get to the beach you leave the main building, is reached in a few steps to the left a small intersection, where you can enjoy the walk to the beach. A few moments later you were already in the sand. The beach (you could also say Bay) is not very wide, but there is a lot on the longer around. The beach is very busy and is relatively close to other 'guests' , in the water it but it was never too crowded. The beach is beautiful and the water was pleasantly. In the area there are other bays/Stränder, you for example: by car could be reached quickly. The excursion possibilities offered on site we have not examined. The hotel is only recommendable with restrictions (on all inclusive may be dispensed with, not for people with easy sleep, ...).
