We liked the facilities for kids, the animation team and engaging program, the food, the staff's friendliness, the nearby beach perfect for kids. We also particularly liked the fact that the pool sunbeds non-reservation rule with towels was respected by guests. Despite the hotel being almost full, there were always sunbeds available near the pools of the resort. Very good wifi in any area of the hotel, including on the beach.

Nice hotel :)

Food was very good, especially Isla restaurant which you could use free once during a week stay. Pools were nice, but littlebit cold in October (for kids). Cleaning every day. All the personal was very helpful and friendly. You have to check out from rooms at 11, but you can stay in hotel and still use pools and eat during the day

Was an enjoyable stay and I would consider going back again

There are many swimming pools to choose from and the children loved playing in the kids pool. The Bungalow we had opened up to one of the swimming pools which made it easier for our family to get to the pool. The food and drinks were delicious and always available. The entertainment at night was amazing ranging from magic, light and dance shows. The hotel is also very close to a sandy beach which was convenient. All the staff were very friendly too!

There were many activities for kids, nice swimming pools, a lot of beach chairs. There were no stones on the shore and in the sea, only sand, which was comfortable for children to play and swimming in the sea.

It is a dream holiday for kids

Our room was on the 4th floor with the view to the see and the pool. It was beautiful, and clean. It had an air conditioner and a balcony. There were 4 pools, a big one in front of the main building, a baby pool next to it, a smaller pool between the bungalows and the kids pool with slides next to it. They were open from 10 to 18. The staff was exceptional, especially the animators. Lots of program for kids and adults too (fitness, yoga, water polo, dance, aqua fitness, beer pong, etc.). Every night at 8 pm mini disco for the kids and after that more performance. The food was great, almost every dinner had a theme (mexican, italian, etc.), but everything was delicious.

A great hotel that all in all exceeded our expectations and we are looking forward to revisiting.

Beautiful environment, big pools, nice beach nearby. The food was great, the staff was amazing, very friendly, helpful and flexible. Great for families, the kids loved the mini disco in the evening and we enjoyed chilling out in the bar. We are considering to return next year.
