there is one in all areas very friendly mood, a general sensation produced-you really feel like a guest and will be treated as such. The Hotel/the rooms have been completely renovated and are 'very welcoming' /friendly designed!

We loved the hotel not satisfied. The food (half board) was not very varied and the selection of food was very well arranged. The balcony was very small and hard to use. Only three German channels to receive (3 sat and RTL). Of a four star hotel you would expect a lot more. The beach section in front of the hotel was overcrowded August. From seven o'clock in the morning are already on the beach with umbrellas and towels places occupied. The pool and the grounds are very small. The direct beach location of the hotel is beautiful.

Inside the hotel is renovated, the outside in dire need of a major renovation, the same goes for the pool. The variety in the food for breakfast and dinner is a 4-star hotel not worthy. in Spain 3 star hotels had already, were much better. Price/performance ratio was right at this hotel! Read more
