Bathrooms in lobby area need much better cleaning schedules. Both male and female toilets were dirty every time myself and my partner went to use them. Pool bar needs a better system for serving both people on the cafe side and on the pool side. Numerous times I was queuing on the pool side and people would join the queue on the cafe side and would be served before me. This is not very good customer service. The location of the hotel is lovely. It is a bit out of the town but 15 mins on the bus and you are in the centre with lots of bars and restaurants. Bus costs €3.20 for two people one way and they do not take card. Cash only. Breakfast was OK, we only went twice out of the week. Hash browns were lovely. Lunch was the same every day. Cold chips. Everything was cold. Dinner was the same as lunch, same thing every night and just mass produced cheap ingredients but it's the same thing everywhere when you do all inclusive unless it's a very expensive hotel. Roof top bar was shut. One out of the 3 beds had no mattress so was out of use. One jacuzzi was off. It should be sign posted better as it felt awkward and like the jacuzzi belonged to whoever was sitting on the bed beside it but that is not the case. We arrived at 11pm so only had 1 hour of all inclusive which did not include any food on the first day. Day of check out they cut our bands off so we couldn't use even though our flight wasn't until 10pm that night. I've never had that happen before.

We just have returned from a 3 night stay and we had a great time Hotel was spotless Staff were great Our room 1142 was spacious and had a comfy bed and good shower and view over the sea We were all inclusive and the buffet restaurant food was plentiful and had lots of choice The options for AI at lunch were limited at the pool and only had a choice of crisps ,pre packed sandwiches,olives. and tacos. The season had however just begun and there was already work going on so i think the choice there will be better as the season goes on The bonita beach restaurant food and service was excellent and we had a lovely lunch there ( not included in AI for 3 nights) AI drinks were good. Some cocktails were better than others Location- quiet on the beach. Need an uber /taxi to go to the more built up areas If you want a beach front all inclusive hotel for a good price then definitely would recommend

The room had an excellent view to the beach. The room only has a helicopter ceiling fan which was even in April insufficient to keep cool at night. Space for clothes is very limited and the area for hanging clothes will be too high for small people. The beds were very comfortable. Cleanliness of the room and the hotel in general was excellent. Food was of a high quality but lacked more variety. The snack offering for all inclusive clients was laughable: it only appeared at 5 pm and was a small side table in the lobby bar. It was demolished within half an hour. Drinks weren’t available on the rooftop bar for all inclusive customers and there were other restrictions, too for these customers. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and some went above and beyond. The beach is right outside the hotel. There is a tiny adult pool and a larger family pool area that you have to walk to going past the beach. Dribks and snacks can be bought there. It feels a bit on the small side and was busy in April and must be crowded in the Summer months. Slides for kids are great entertainment and the pool itself was good and has a little separate jacuzzi as well. The rooftop in the hotel has three jacuzzis for up to 6 adults but is often hogged for hours by the same entitled guests and hotel staff would not interfere which made this an unpleasant experience. The sunbeds and sun chairs up there are a great addition and the view from up there is spectacular. All in all it was a pleasant stay.

Frokost var bra. Bassengene var svært kalde. Det var praktisk med både butikk og noen restauranter 2 min gange fra hotellet. Vi reiste som familie men fikk rom i 3 og 6 etg. Det var litt upraktisk, og det burde ikke være nødvendig å legge inn ønske om rom ved siden av hverandre når man reiser 2 voksne og 3 barn. Det bør være ganske innlysende.
