The hotel, we would not again book. The reception ( front desk) leaves much to be desired.
The complex is really nice laid out. The staff are friendly.
Most of the impurity bother us. The bathroom was an impertinence. The fridge was for years not any longer cleaned. As well as all Remotes.

All inclusive is in the hotel recommendable, since the beverages very expensive are, and one much drinks. Internet unfortunately too too expensive, which is not service. Read more

the hotel is a huge large plant however very well maintained is. The garden is very nice and in a top condition. Lots of palm trees and beautiful Trees are well-lit at night. The hotel consists of several houses around the pool. The pool, the very large is, is very cleaned, however with very high chlorine share.
the average age I'd say was between 30-55. In the hotel are many guests from Germany, lots of Italians, many from the Scandinavian countries and a few from Poland. The people were all very pleasant and friendly. There was no proble... Read more
