We will be back. Great hotel in the middle of a beautiful park. The walk to the beach takes around 5 to 10 minutes which wasn't so bad since the park beautiful is. Small drawback is the very narrow beach section. The food was very good, wether at the beach bar or in the restaurant. Very versatile... The waiters and at all the entire staff are friendly and very cared for its guests. I would say 90% germans tourists... The sea loads of course for snorkelling and dive. Otherwise the bay very nice anxious. Conclusion : Sol y Mar Makadi Sun a … read more

Got our 'old room' and my mother-in-law (88) the room next door. Small requests and suggestions (make-up mirror in the bathroom, benches on the way to the beach) were happy Accepted. The guest care was always something for everyone. The team has this time itself exceeded, from breakfast till for dinner. Crickets on the terrace, at the table flambieren and Georges special tea (mother in law) at cold. We felt way, and we are already looking forward to … read more

We have been already the 2. time in this hotel and exactly the same as last year, it was a great, relaxing, sunny and funny holiday. The excursions with the in-house agency ' travco' were super again organized and interesting, especially the snorkeling was beautiful. Unfortunately the food, in comparison to last year, something else to wish for left and could have been more variety. The staff is again super nice and attentive, especially the quality of the of the pool bar. Furthermore, you couldn't just say, that the bad parents would have been ☺ Most inspired but we were again Ghalap and … read more

The waiters know mostly after 2 orders, what you at 3. evening drink. The food in the restaurant was also very good. Especially the meat and the vegetables were very good and delicious. The one has otherwise so rarely. You have to but also say, if one only shortly before restaurantschluss watched food, you should no firm filled buffet expect more, as unfortunately also some guests said!
