The staff were superb from reception to, the cleaning staff, to the activity team at pool side. Cannot fault them, fantastic all round. Hotel itself seemed I little run down. Quite a lot of things in disrepair or damaged. For example, the mini golf course is in desperate need of repair. There were cracked windows and boarded up windows. The kids play area outside the kids club was in bad repair. The biggest surprise for us was the amount of extra charges despite us being all inclusive. Most ice creams, drinks, snacks, towel hire, bowling and even two of the restaurants were not included in the "all" inclusive (staying at the Polynesian hotel). Not sure you can call it all inclusive if it's not all included. Overall we did however have a fantastic stay and a really relaxing holiday. Again the staff were superb and really engaged with us and our son. You should be proud of the staff you have there.

Great stay, but wished we had stayed longer

We enjoyed the look and feel of the polynesia hotel, it was clean, comfortable and well staffed. The shuttle bus allowed us to get to other hotels in the resort (Village and Riwo) as well as the water park). We made use of the hotel pool most and also visited the local beaches which were only 5-10 min taxi drive away which was also a good change in scenery. The activities and entertainment on offer at the hotela were great for children and adults alike as was the variety of the inclusive buffet food on offer. We only stayed 5 days but wished we had stayed longer.

Vi är väldigt nöjda med detta boende. Vi hade all inclusive (perfekt när man reser med barn) och god mat från olika delar av världen serverades under veckans tema-kvällar. Detta hotellkomplex består av 3 hotell och vi bodde på det mindre av dem, Riwo - men med gemensam Beach club nere mot havet dit shuttle-bussen gick hela tiden. Antingen kunde man välja det lite lugnare poolområdet vid hotellet eller Beach club:en med fler pooler och vattenrutschbana, men med något stimmigare miljö. Städning av rummen varje dag kändes fräscht. Om vi ändå ska nämna en nackdel med hotellet så var det att solstolarna inte var fällbara, men en petitess i det stora hela.

Bien pour dormir...

Chambre avec literie très confortable. 2 grands lits pouvant accueillir 2 adultes et 2 enfants. Canapé lit correct, 1 lit de 90. Salle de bain propre avec baignoire et douche. Balcon avec vue partielle mer sinon parking. Propreté de l hôtel. Point negatif est la restauration mais en correlation avec le prix de la chambre qui n est pas élevé. Très moyen mais suffisant pour le petit dejeuner au vu du prix. Spa payant 15e l heure. Piscine exterieure fraîche. Pas profité des terrains sport. Trop loin pour y accéder.
