Hotel Aquamarina Beach Club^{(4 stars)}

Spacious, a bit aged rooms with a large bathroom, balcony, air-conditioning, TV and telephone. Normal cleanliness, not allowed so just look into the corners. You should try not to get in the restaurant area V. areas from A to Z. in the area are the classification Aquamarin U until For

In the area there is a BBQ Aquamarin Beach Club and a pizzeria. For dinner we went to the Grill and were horrified. ended up where we were. A buffet with very, very manageable dishes. After the first bite of the mostly lukewarm, dry food below we asked if this would everything is. Then, the waiter replied that it is better, in the area of the Adriana resort . We were there in no time outside and walked the 5 minutes to the main areas. The relief. Everything was much larger, more spacious, more versatile. Several counter with show cooking. The food was to other all-inclusive hotels in the 4 star area average. varied on the weekend. But in October were at weekends a lot more local guests, and the food were better and more local dishes.

Different occur. Always polite, but also surly note there is perhaps 20zigste question of where the sauce to roast pork,. Well, early October the season is not quite to end of. Front desk staff with various cuisines, but luckily I had a nice staff. The birthday of my wife got me personally flowers. The restaurant was a bit planned dinner-surprisingly in the pants, they changed it after the bar area made up for. Pick-up with the E-car, morning to check-out was probably a little bit early and (for Portuguese tolerances) 10 minutes after abgesprochener being carried out.

The resort is divided in two resorts. At the rear of the Aquamarin and at the front of the larger Adriana. Upon arrival we found a little confusing as the front desk only than Adriana marked. When we arrived in the lobby the area seemed very persuasive. Check in was easy and quick. With the an E car we were with our luggage in the back part of the area in the smaller Aquamarin resort. The property is spacious and clean. Our rooms were a bit disappointing, as it is right in the restaurant complex. Rooms a bit old but spacious. The fan of the restaurant made lot of noise, but turned off at night. Parking is available at the reception. guarded area available. Mostly British and German as well as Portuguese undin few French and Dutch. During the weekends many Portuguese guests.

Direct location on the coast, with access to the beach through wooden. about 300 yards from the hotel. Beach spacious and invites you to walk. Hotel's beach chairs and umbrellas were available for free. Hotel is away from the old town Albufiera away. By taxi about €13 ). You can rent bicycles. Hotel shuttle provides transport 3-4 times throughout the city. But at night only up to 2000 hours.

Large area with 2 -story "bungalows" room+bathroom unfortunately not very large, small balcony. Our bungalow was updated, clean and tidy. Refrigerator (without minibar), small TV with many German channels. Towels were changed daily.

The tendious topic food. For the moment: it was always very tasty for us. From now not lush offer was something tasty daily. The buffet style restaurant serving presentable, clean layout. There are always fresh fruits and a very well stocked salad bar. Average 2 meat+2 3 fish+freshly grilled meat+fish. For children range of pasta+pizza. In our opinion the food you don't always have nitpick who gourmet food expected, more expensive hotels holidays. Since we A. I. booked, I can't definite about the rates at the bar, but is safe on the German price level.

In the dining rooms are enough service staff there, however only to clear the table, as they are very fast, you have to watch that the plate didn't lightning fast disappears! Generally friendly. At the reception there are some staff who spoke German relatively well (wife F. ). Check in at 2 pm, check out until 11 :00 . Luggage transfer with luggage carts worked well. With a small tip the boy the luggage to your room as if you're in the bungalow in the 2 . Otherwise 3 floor, you'll have to lug it up stairs. Also for the maid should you used additionaly >2 daily.

Main pool+smaller pool in the other hotel area. Main pool quite large with a small palm island. Poolberiche general clean, with drawbacks-see Punkt.1). From 10am-6pm. entertainment, constant music, it seemed however in the volume not so terrible as usual. We didn't use the pool, but were always on the beach. walk to the beach about 200 meters away, descent down steep wooden 92 steps that should maybe vacationers, the not so good walking distance. The beach is very long, broad, fine sand and the water was very flat abfallend.30 -40 m to the water up to your neck. As usual the beach in Portugal, therefore i.e. on the beach no management of hotel, only beach chairs + umbrellas, but free! Cleanliness in the lying area not so good, of course the holiday makers are required, waste your time to throw in the existing trash bins! You can especially in the early morning nice walks on the beach, as one could see fishes when the sand is a solid and you can walk so was easy.

Extensive area (2 hotels with shared facilities), well maintained, lots of green, general clean but some minor negatives: condusive mostly in plastic beakers during the day, which then after use often lying around on the premises, as not enough staff to clear. Also in the evening at the bar drinks in any available just glasses filled you can sometimes see its brandy in lemonade glasses. For 4 star hotel not high standard. The hotel is a bit isolated, shopping opportunities only in the mini-shop (expensive), otherwise shuttle bus to Albuferia. Also Suitable for young families with small children as nice pool and beach very suitable for children. Despite the amount of kids it was not too noisy, seniors can also feel at home, but be aware: way to the beach along steep wooden staircase with 92 steps! For young party season the hotel was completely unsuitable! No disco nearby, the hotel only entertainment for children and upscale age. Evening theater performances, in the changing of the entertainers or dedicated Profikünstlern.

As mentioned, pretty far away from anything else, nearby only other hotels and small mini-shops. Shuttle bus to Albuferia 4xtäglich. Less than 20 minutes. Note: bus only small (-20 -seat), especially first drive early 9:30 will definately return on our 1. Not all. Bus service is also 2x in a row, but wait in between 40 minutes. Distance from Faro airport 45 minutes (bus) as usual, excursions could be from agencies reservation, which we didn't, since we had 1 week tour Portugal had completed.

Family rooms are quite small for four people. For the fourth person there was only an extra bed. The regular bedding was way too hard and quite uncomfortable. That said, the rooms were clean and functional. The safe deposit box costs €2.50 per day is expensive. linen took place regularly, whereas the towels were sometimes only after 17 hours. Small refrigerator is available.

The main restaurant with An exploration kitchen and the only restaurant where you don't feel like going out at the pool bar drinks had to get. The food was good, but are Spanish four-star hotels much better. The other two restaurants offered the same food with little variation (pizza, pasta and grilled fish and schnitzel). The tables were in all restaurants during meals, partly even though it was empty, not cleared.

The rooms were always cleaned well. For guests who didn't speak English, is the communication with staff (also front desk) is difficult. What was really annoying was that to one bartender at the pool of the Aquamarina always the room card for drinks, although all guests wore a bracelet for all inclusive. Complaints about unoperable safe, lighting, etc. were handled immediately. Pool (beach)-towels could for 5 € for the whole stay and rented then be changed daily (deposit €20 ). Bus service is very bad times and is also very crowded, so not all guests to work commitments.

The sports and entertainment offer we didn't use. This always found at the pool of the Adriana, which we on the restlessness (very loud music and a lot of other guests) didn't use it. The pool of the Aquamaina is smaller but perfectly adequate. Despite the heat the water was always refreshingly cool.

Blend of two resorts, and although the Adriana and the Aquamarina Beach Club. One was the infrastructure fully available. So is the very large location, has two pools and 3 restaurants, although the main restaurant at least for dinner at the Adriana is highly recommended. The area was very clean and neat. The guests were mainly families with children, with English and French were in the majority.

The beach could be reached after about 5 - 10 minutes walk, beach chairs and umbrellas were included. The beach is fantastically located and at low tide, you could also very far into the sea. At high tide significantly increases the sea level and there are also time high waves, so there was also for our children (11,12) it was difficult, to go into the sea. A bus ride into Albufeira (including) and to the airport about 30 minutes. As the hotel, as described in the catalog, outside there is no shopping possibilities except for two small supermarkets. Disco is available, but we didn't use it.

The rooms are a little small, but it was nice. You can watch for 20euro deposit-however a faucet at the front desk/refrigerators are also available as well as a small balcony.

The gastronomy I think has all the worst, but was not bad. There were three restaurants, two of which are in the area of the Aqua Marina clubs. The pizza restaurant you should avoid at all costs, as there was little choice of food was cold and the pizza was. So También nobody. The grill-restaurant was better. There one could get a little patience acess, good meat and great fish grilled food. There have been you should really visit. The main restaurant was on the whole good. The fruit choice was gigantic. There was always apples, oranges, grapes, pineapple and honey melon and watermelon. Sausage and cheese as well as the meat were pretty bad. There are also diversified meals such as roast pork (unfortunately without sauce) or chicken.

The bar staff was very friendly and always in a good mood. The restaurant staff but were rather unfriendly. The rooms were always cleaned very well and the housekeepers were also very nice. You should definitely have English. At the front desk and at the bars you could easily communicate. But there were also Germans staff.

There are 2 pools, both well laid out. The entertainment was very good. Everyone was very nice and helpful. There are plenty of sports facilities as soccer, volleyball, tennis, basketball, etc. Furthermore, kids club, and also a disco, the Friday to Sunday from 11pm till 1am open, and Internet connection. Only downside was the pool in the afternoon very dirty, but the I really didn't care because I always at the beach.

The grounds of the hotel is great. She is very large and well kept. The rooms are a 2 -story blocks, the very new look. The hotel could only book all-inclusive. End of August/beginning of September were a lot of British, many French and a few German guests in the hotel.

Aqua-Marina-Beach Club is about 15 minutes by car from albufiera away. You had to walk about 500 meters to the beach through an adventurous staircase. Very nice on the beach are the cliffs and the azure waters of the sea. There is free beach chairs you should be very fast, as there are not very many available.

The biggest negative for us clearly and significantly less than 4 star. Our family room on the ground floor of the building Z are sparsely furnished. Furniture and walls showed clear Durchfeuchtungsschäden (see photos), the sliding closet were very heavy. Beds are ok. Little storage space in the closet. Small bathroom with a shower of approximately 5 square feet (curtain), toilet and sink. I would recommend the gentlemen Trockenrasierer, as there are no lighting added water temperature a thorough Nassrasur permit. Large balcony with garden view. Cleaning and change of towels every day, the sheets were changed twice a week.

Between 8 and 23 am there is always a possibility to take drinks and dishes. Dining options include 3 on-site dining options that the widest stuff you find the Adriana, there were 3 guest rooms and several shadow terraces. The whole restaurant is unfortunately not air-conditioned, constantly walk music in such T unpleasant volume and daily repetition. odd exclusively plastic and already a bit disgusting. The amount and choice of meals and beverages is definitely enough, if unspectacular. As a small characteristics of the breakfast may bread mixture, chocolate nut cream and pancakes. Lunch and dinner starters, main dishes and Nachspeisenbuffets. Next to various meat dishes will always pasta, potatoes (in all fried variations) and rice and different types of vegetables (tin which you gladly avoided, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, spinach etc. Are no exception! ) All the food is very low key seasoned, sometimes even a little bland. Hot food rarely hot enough. Meat and fish were always very dusty. fruit choice very rich and tasty. Cakes usually dry and butter-CREAMY. Refer German cuisine in each case probably feel! However, there are international specialty evenings with Sonderbuffets subject to cultures. The CARVING the rolls or the cutting of meat is with the offered knives a challenge. Drinks are tapped yourself. Restaurant-inlet only with key card for lunch and dinner. Bathing suits is unwanted, men must wear but totally Bermuda for dinner. At the bars the menu is also to be submitted. Despite all inclusive no drinks on the beach and Speisenservice.

The staff in all areas friendly, helpful and unobtrusive. Communication in order D. R. In English or French, sometimes in German. Portuguese enjoy a light home advantages. Check-in has to be done at the Adriana front desk and was immediately possible despite the early arrival. handling of the room key (electronic/magnetic keys) were only served after 14 hours, which leads to an increased lines at the front desk. bellboys is available upon further wait and at least for the more distant Aquamarina-room highly recommended. In the restaurant is adequate staff, which consists of Portuguese peace and tranquility operates. At night, you can however, placed at any time wishes. The bars are well staffed, with high rush of course be prepared with a bit of a wait. At the pools, on the lawns and at the beach, beach chairs and parasols free of charge, full utilization only between 10 and 12 hours. No public toilets directly at the pool and on the beach, but only in the lobby, on the lower ground floor and in the restaurant. ATM, phone line and wireless internet access available in the hotel lobby.

Sports activities available, use the gym facilities but partly fee. For the sporting activity is served daily- and afternoons offered a wide range. The animation team is but untrained, the "supervisor" the each change daily sports activities available. Result is a rather spaßorientierter pass. If you like it, I personally with a Dauerkasper less handle on the field. The main pool and adjacent terrace from 10am to Sendeschluss at often varying volume relentless played during the water aerobics even with different music. Silence searchers are clearly better off at the activity beach. For the kids every day by the kids' entertainment there, which is clear highlight of the evening mini disco - fun for all adults also spectators. The evening shows were sometimes by the entertainment staff, some also professional artists dedicated. Quality very different. Then follows the rule in the "Dance" the most of them young, worth seeing and thoroughly rousing …

International family hotel away from the major tourist centers, but very close to the magnificent Falesia beach. The 2 - and 3 -story building of the Aquamarina Beach and of the sister hotel Adriana are situated in a very extensive landscaped gardens. All the facilities and services are available to our guests both hotels. Both hotels are apparently only all-inclusive bookable, still the carrying of a wrist band was compulsory. Very balanced guest structure, mostly West and Südwesteuropäer (maximum 20 % germanspeaking), very high proportion of children and young people. The area is generally meeting didn't have the demands of the tour operator promised 4 star standard.

Away from the village. Bus stop near the hotel, but 4 x on weekdays free hotel shuttle bus to Albufeira (exit to also before the advertised check in time, when all the seats are occupied! ) Distance to the fine sandy beach about 500 meters, beach access only about a wooden Treppenkonstruktion with approximately 100 steps (photo). Next entrances about 1 km away, so overall very empty beach. We constantly had a roaring surf, the water depth quickly to take, so it's recommended for children. Although the hotel still is close to the airport, the transfer took about 45 minutes. are subject of the weather are starting or landing planes to see the view of the general We however we didn't find disturbing.

The rooms are large enough for two people. It can become with two extra beds. (But bearable) What we missed was a closet for get rid of. There was shelves, however, they were open. The rooms are equipped with TV, safe (2.50 euros per day), air-conditioning and fridge. The rooms are cleaned daily.

In the area there were enough restaurants. Because of the full Selbstbedienungsservices arises in the main restaurant especially at breakfast and dinner very concerned. Wine from a tetrapack in a glass of their duties, beer and non-alcoholic beverages are available in plastic cups (disposable 0,2 l). A small number of glasses (0 .2l) there is so long while supplies last. However, if you wanted to drink a half-liter is at least three times the evening only for traveling to the detriment of comfort. The dishes were varied (except breakfast). There are good fish. The Grill, a place of shortly fried meat dishes, sometimes for steam in the kitchen and the buffet. After 10:00 breakfast is offered for late risers. This is however daily from burgers or hot dog ... In a country like Portugal where there are lots of sun, I would have wished for breakfast a bit more of fresh fruit. In the main restaurant there was this. However, there are only in the Nebenrastaurant tinned fruit and a smaller choice of rolls but it's much quieter. Especially we thought it the "disposable - plastic - mugs"-the even in the evening at the bar are standard. Even whisky here is filled in. If you want a glass it must say. The has little style and is probably not a 4 star standard.

As I said, the whole place was very well located, but suffers from under the all inclusive concept. The staff seems partly somewhat unmotivated, which also is understandable. All meals are served in the form of a buffet. Drinks every care itself (whether water, wine or beer). This leaves for the staff just about the "clearing" the tables, etc. The has little of the purpose of operating or service staff rather than what from a waiter. The rooms are cleaned daily. The only problem is the changing of the towels. The hotel is fully booked, you should park on reason too few supply of towels laundered for each guest its new towels behind collecting. We were in the 14 days 5 times happened that we even after 4:30 pm new towels only available upon request at the reception desk (the old were at the room cleaning were collected by).

There are offered daily sport offers. soccer tournaments, tennis, volleyball, table tennis and mini-golf. Although in the evening if you want a round of miniature golf, you at least 6:00 pm we found take the rental to until the next morning. At the beach and the pool were free beach chairs and umbrellas. Unfortunately, there were also (and that's not the hotels fault) also distribute the well known "- You reached". First towel mood on the chair ... If I can not need I just before dinner back to the rooms - nothing costs. The beach is very nice - fine sand, clean water. desirable for an all inclusive area a beverage service at the beach. If I wanted to drink or brought what with the about 90 steps and the 5 -10mins walk to purchase to nearest bar.

The resort is very well maintained, well arranged but spacious. The rooms are simply furnished, include in-room safes (€2.50 per day), small TVs also with German channels (remote control for 20€ deposit) and a small refrigerator. Balcony and terrace are very different. We had a room with a big balcony, but also met people, who had a similar room, the balcony was max at 4 to dry the towels. Many families with children from different nations. If you don't want to walk, can use the internal shuttle service for free.

The hotel area was located outside a small place. The beach is a short walk (approx. 5 -10 minute) and after a little staircase. Shopping one should not really - it was an all inclusive resort. In the area there was a small kiosk. Tours can be booked in the hotel. Highly recommended however, is to hire a car. From the hotel there is a bus to Albufeira 4 times a day.

The cleaning ladies krakeelen one's God Himself favors-early around used accordingly. sleeping in was impossible. In addition, the breakfast also pünktlichst around 10:00 cleared away.

The breakfast was in the 14 days only once a table set. Otherwise we had to set up our own it mostly with dishes and cutlery. You couldn't get afterwards. And so the employees didn't want rights. Kitchen was ok. and again the food was infested with garlic besides that it was ok. For breakfast there were only packaged jam (??!!) and up 10:00, otherwise you had to be ready cleared. The seating in the outdoor area were cheapest Baumarktqualität and these were old, worn, tired and birds vollgekotet. Crockery really around everywhere. In the morning the cooks just couldn't keep up with fried eggs and crepes or pancakes. They also often just 5 - 6 pieces to and that was it. There was fresh fruit unfortunately only a very small buffet selection. The largest proportion was canned fruits. The two smaller restaurants you can basically completely save. There was a really bad food, which also as good asn't varied at all. There was always exactly the same.

The staff was mediocre at its entirety. Definitely not friendly! German only had a very neglected looking lady at the front desk. You can't baked (1st time there. Everything took forever. As you obviously not showing.

The pool was a spectacle all day, you love to would leave. Superlaute music. time techno time other musical Unzumutbarkeiten a volume, that the speakers were desperately swamped and thereby distorted. The entertainment and the other entertainment (if you could call) were unprofessional and embarassing. Cocktail-play bingo, water polo and other Überflüssigkeiten here the guests were also setted

Hotel is set back behind a small pine forest and you can the sea as good as no seen from the hotel. The cleanliness outside the rooms leaves a lot to be desired. partly looked bigger Müllansammlungen you in the park, in the 14 days not even out of place. Mostly French guests in large groups (Kegelvereine or similar. ) Very loud talking and is permanently. The toilets in the hotel area were extremely disgusting.

At the beach there were not enough beach chairs. Partly, especially in the afternoon was again almost alone on the beach. It was wonderful. The hawkers know why that was.

The rooms are spacious, clean and bright. Will be cleaned every day.

Next to the main restaurant (Adriana) there was another small restaurant (including Aquamarina), apart from that, there was a grill hut. The selection wasn't so great. There was very little variety at the buffet, Sharing almost empty plates took a certain time. Sometimes from the employees sausage decorated differently, so that the plate so not looked empty. Breakfast is delicious orange juice, beans, bacon, sausage, fried and scrambled eggs, for the different kinds of bread was a toaster. However, the generally not labelled, so you have to open every basket to know what this includes Another sort of bread. If you like it can also the offered for breakfast noodles, tomato sauce and the chips. Lunch and dinner didn't really seem to be familiar to tell them apart. Some meals weren't labelled, and those that you could be recognized were rather shall bear a label. The meat wasn't warm let alone hot. It microwaves were available. So the staff know that their dishes from the beginning were not hot. As side dishes there were fries, potatoes, rice, vegetables, spinach. This was not every day. In addition there were chefs, the different meat and fish grilled/cooking. Even after the "edit" the food was not hot. The dessert left a lot to be desired. meal and pudding, the burned tasted as in all the other. For fruit there were also a small choice which was very tasty. In addition, for lunch and dinner ice creams, though the same sort. Conclusion: You can get full, but the choice is not appropriate for a 4 star hotel. The temperature should also be done on the food.

The restaurant help is rude and made a demotivated. The tables were not leaving newly set. The staff can not speak German. For dinner you brought to a table. Even though the waiter will tell you where you want to sit and he this request it is not possible to sit down at the table alone. On request that is why they just said: "The are the rules. " The entertainment is not bad. However, the music sometimes have been very noisy. The aqua fitness is actually arranged by several speakers with different music. There were both new and regularly repeating games, the the entertainers offered. At the pool bar service relatively quickly, even though several guests there. Disadvantage, it is no order and the staff have wasted 3 to 5 large ice cubes in the cups. This is on duration strenuous. But when you tell whether with or without ice cubes is not a problem.

The pool is very clean and well kept, however there are a few flaws. There were 2 showers for a small Fliesenteile have fallen off, there is no marking and introduce more steps in and out of the stairs for itself in the pool or the steps on the staircase are color not otherwise noted. Just look at it, where you'd better and go a step ends. For sport and entertainment make the entertainers (football, volleyball, stretching, water aerobics, darts, tennis, basketball, mini-golf, ... ). And in the evening there is the Minidisco then by the children liked a lot.

The area was very very large as it a cluster of two hotels that are (Aqua Marina Beach Club and Adriana). It is not in the catalogs shown that, an area with 2 hotels. The condition of the room was alright, they cleaned every day, although sometimes not as thoroughly as it should be for example in the bathroom. The room is very nicely decorated. There is a small desk, TV, armchair and a chair, balcony with chairs and tables, an air conditioning and a safe, but only for a deposit plus the added daily charge. Review of the food see gastronomy. Guest structure: very many French and Dutch. The staff speaks except for one or two no German. Without English, you were quite in a fix.

Distance to the city center is very far away. You can reach this only with the bus, which only 4 times a day. The drive to Albufeira is free with this bus and takes about 20 minutes. The way to the beach is about 400 m from the main pool. A bit too far to just something to drink. It is 92 steps down and the stairs are not in the quick walk to enter. For a disabled is this way were certainly not recommendable, as he both down than back up is very tiring. The stairs are partly crooked and there is no limit at the end of a level, so you can easily lose things. At the beach there was a member of staff of the guests to the beach chairs accompanied (you can choose your own where you want to lie) and the umbrellas and also presents, where this wanted. He is friendly and wishes to guests a good stay. Excursion possibilities a rental car, the excursion offers of the hotel or the travel agency.

We had booked a family room and were a little disappointed about the size of the room. 20 Square meters (4 beds) but a large balcony. After we were rarely in the room. It was cleaned every day.

We always ate at the Adriana. Just great. The quality of the food was superb!!! lobster, crab ginger sauce. Delicious ...... There was also always cooks as, the fish or meat b-b-que with. Cheese, grapes, and a glass of wine to finish. Delicious. The tables and chairs in the outdoor area were not so great. On the first evening we sat outside. Then but not again. The air conditioning in the restaurant did not always correct. But well, the food was good value has compensated for everything. Absolutely worth of 4 stars.

We were the bags were brought to your room. The area was constantly kept clean. There were people, the the lawn, the hedges mähten Eroded or similar. Our room was always clean. During meals, one to the table. We were pleased with the friendliness of the staff. The child friendliness was a little to be, as we have had in other holidays (e.g. B. Turkey). But now yes!!!

The animation team was always tried hard. Mini-disco, different performances, then Club-dancing. Just great. The pool area in the Aquamarina it was quieter. The Adriana was it through the music at the pool sometimes it was very noisy. Well, but each to their own. The pool's were cleaned after 8 pm every night. The beach also.

What a great place. We can not understand all the bad reviews. How can you about two chipped tiles in the outdoor shower were complaining about?! If I am in a foreign country and I can't wait to the everywhere German spoken?! We can recommend this hotel with a clear conscience. Super clean. Great entertainment. The all-inclusive package is great. There were about 30 % German, the rest English, French, Spanish, Portuguese ... There.

Through some steps you could reach the beautiful beach. It was never crowded. The beach chairs and umbrellas were included. Especially at night it was great again to go to the beach, if the sun went down. The beach was particularly great for children, as they always in the view and it was not from deep into the water. Shopping or entertainment possibilities were nearby. You could use the shuttle bus to Albufeira. The animation team was always tried hard. Mini-disco, different performances, then Club-dancing. Just great.

They were just ok, not too large and on the closet missing a door. There was a safe which for hire. Refrigerators are also available. Every room had a small balcony.

It is used for orders of course at the bar waiting times, because even if you have to give your card armband each time. It also seems that the staff is not trained, it is not to, just haphazard. Not all but many employees were not very friendly. The food was not good. Some dishes were often empty, it took some time to go back to attention. The food was only lukewarm you're cold. The meat was sometimes so tough, that you couldn't eat it. The whole buffet style and had rather the character of a cafeteria. At the entrance every time and accompanied to the table. If the restaurant was almost full, but had to cover the staff the tables and new. Then it happen that it took a while, until you get a table. For lunch and the evening you could choose between 3 restaurants, in the great was more choice, then there was a grill restaurant and a small restaurant which in the other hotel were, the two facilities include together.

So far good, sometimes the waiters were rude or overstrained. The waiters hardly understand German. With English you got along easily. At the reception of some of the staff but German spoken.

The pool area is really nice, there were enough chairs and umbrellas available. There are 2 pools. As the Adriana Beach Club is one of them. The beach chairs were quite comfortable. There were activities at the but we never took part. It wasn't pushy. Internet access shouldn't have been used, is too expensive and slow.

The complex is lovely. Small bungalows with small but clean rooms. Therefore, it is also very quiet. The beach is very nice but you have 96 steps. A lifeguard provides the beach chairs and umbrellas. This is included in the price. A little confusing for all inclusive - you get a bracelet, but in every order gave the room card. Bath towels for a security deposit of 20.00 € per unit and fee for each day €2.50 . The towels can be changed as often as you like.

The location is very nice. But you should take a car to see something. The beach is gorgeous and you can take wonderful walks.
