Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff were all great, including waiting, cleaning and reception staff. Shame there’s no sun loungers at the beach, given it’s a beachside property. Towel system a bit annoying. Pools not being heated was an issue for October holiday but can imagine summer it’s ok. The one main issue we found was the allergy labelling on food was inconsistent and not clear at all. The staff were also not reassuring, telling us one thing had something in one night and then the next night not. Would be very worrying for serious allergies.

Excellent facility for kids to play and enjoy pool time. Busy as expected, lot food options but may rather find balance between quality and quantity. Staff accommodating but also busy. Pool floor quality slippery so maybe some warning for young kid and elderly may help prevent unfortunate falls. Overall excellent for pool, beach time and reasonable price.

Guay!

El hotel es maravilloso, no me gustó que publiciten spa y que lo que haya sea una piscina interior helada y que ofrezcan masajes… eso no es un spa. Y la animación de 12 a 16 no existe… se quedan estos niños sin nada. Por lo demás el servicio muy bueno y la comidas espectaculares. Nos ha gustado mucho!

The property or clean and very nice. However: The pictures show a beach but this is not part of the hotel and need to pay for beach chair and umbrella Restaurants in the area are average and limited options for nice dining No touristic attractions nearby Uber is only transportation and very expensive Most tourist attractions leave from Malaga which is around 45 minutes away. There is an all inclusive option but if you don’t chose that, a meal would pay €35 per person You have to pay €3 per day for the in room safe The airport is around an hour away.
