Currently on our last full day staying here and there are mixed feelings. I’ll break down the review into sections: Room: It appears we have been placed into a jacuzzi suite without requesting / paying for one which is a pleasant surprise. It costs an extra 30 euro a day to run the thing though, so didn’t bother. The room is good quality, and certainly a four star quality. It’s more so an apartment than a room which is welcoming with a family. The bed is a king size and the sofa bed in the lounge is a good size albeit very uncomfortable. There is AC, however it’s very poor. There’s instructions on the wall on how to use it yet even after setting the temperature, we never had the room get below 24 degrees. Without the ceiling fans I think this would be a nightmare, and pretty unbearable in the latter summer months (July / August). As previous reviews have mentioned - even though the hotel has commented that they will address it - the WiFi is rubbish. It only works by the pool and you’ll find yourself constantly connecting / disconnecting. I work in IT and it won’t be very hard or expensive to upgrade th WiFi to a mesh network properly. Food: Food is where this hotel is let down in my opinion. Of all the hotels I’ve stayed at with all inclusive, this hotel has offered the least amount of variety in terms of dishes. We found the food to be extremely repetitive. Usually you find the food to ‘reset’ after 7 nights at an all inclusive but the same dishes have been served 3-4 nights out of 7 which isn’t great at all. The food that is there is tasty, but as I said it’s extremely repetitive and very boring as you approach the end of your stay. The snack bar does burgers, chips, pizza etc. but oddly this is only open from 3:30pm. This is a first as typically in AI hotels, the snack bar runs from early afternoon. The reason for this is because they use the restaurant as the snack bar area as the pool bar doesn’t have the facilities. Ice lollies / crisps at the pool bar are chargeable even if you’re AI, and the snack bar only offers the cheap ice cream pots. Pools: The pools were good, 2 very, very cold and 1 heated which was lovely. The majority of people were in the heated pool as you would expect, but this ended up being closed for several hours a day - being taped off for whatever reason? The kids pool with slides is great for little ones (3-8 year olds) but I feel like you’d struggle with any kids older than this as there are no activities ran by the hotel - or at least during the week we stayed as no one approached us sat down to do archery, table tennis, tennis etc. as described in their offerings. The umbrellas by the pools are made out of palm leaves and don’t do a great job of protecting little ones out of the sun, particularly in summer. I ended up hanging a towel across the poles in the canopy to keep the little ones in the shade. The warnings for the terracotta (orange tiles) around the pool / surrounding areas aren’t enough really. W
