There was hardly any variation, but you had a large selection of hot and cold dishes. Furthermore, there were also the attendance in the à la carte restaurants on the way. The beach is only a few steps away. The pools made a very neat impression. The evening entertainment was also gr …  read more

We were the first 2 nights at the solymar accommodated. After our round trip we got the arenas blancas a room. There it pleased us very well and we felt comfortable in the renovated room. The maid service was attentive and efficient. The food was ok. There was a lot of vegetables and fruit. The service was always friendly and cheerful. In the hotel there were mostly canadians accommodated. The care by our reiseunternehmungsbetreuer was very good. … read more

We had several water failure as well as electricity failure for our bungalow. Staff did not reenact in a professional way and I had to insist to have a conveninence room placed at disposal to be able to have a shower... Poor competences in this way. Buffet at the main restaurant what not as used to be (we went several times to this hotel). Repititive food not as much choice as it used to be. We would be disappointed. … read more
