wrong time because of too much families with kids
It would be helpfull and a necessity that couples without kids are informed through your marketing in advance that there is no possibility to find calm places to rest without loud kids and to have breakfast, lunch and dinner in an adequate way. The same belongs to pool areas.

First impression was very good but the closer you look the worser it gets.
Whole hotel complex is nice and the pools are all very cool. But there are a lot of small things which the hotel did not take care of dutyfully.
It is very noisy in the room, you can hear the room above very good.
It is an "all inclusive" hotel but then there are popcorn machines where you have to pay for...
Parking is quite tricky, there is a hotel parking area but it is allways full as it is very small. You can park on the street but as well, very full and hard to find a spot if you arrive late during the day.
In the room the safe did not work as well as a light (bulb was missing - > open your eyes housekeeping!) and an eletricity bolt did not work either. Maintenance was done very quickly after mentioning it but it did not work again the day after.
Glasses and plates at the bar/restaurant were more then once dirty. One had still the red lipstick from the previous customer on it.
Were not asked if we did enjoy our stay during check out. So I guess they don't care if you are happy or not.
Overall it was ok for the price but I guess if you look you will find better options for the same price on the island.

Nice and enjoyable
We have a lovely 4 night stay as a last minute booking. After staying here previously 5 years ago we had a good idea of what the hotel was like but it was certainly better than we remembered from our last stay.
It was busy but plenty of space and sun beds available. The rooms were comfortable with daily house keeping. Food in the restaurant was varied and caters for everyone. The evening and daytime entertainment was also great. This is an excellent 4* hotel and wouldn’t hesitate recommending a stay here.

It seems like all the restaurants on site offered the same food the entirety of the trip. Not much variety day to day. Rooms are outdated although clean. The pool is dirty and people leave their drinks cups all over the property and the staff don’t clean up regularly. It would be nice if the beach area had lounge chairs and a food bar available. The night shows are mainly catered to young kids. We have teens and would leave half way through show. Also, the employee from the Supermarket onsite is disgruntled and should not work in customer service. Extremely rude employee. All the other employees were pleasant.

We upgraded our room after night one. We had to check out by 11am and had no room until after 3pm. While usually we wouldn’t mind it makes it hard to change to go eat or get your little one a nap if you don’t have access to a room, shower or your luggage. Bathrooms in both rooms were pretty neglected. Basic cleaning (towels & sweep) seems like the only thing done.

We just got back from a 10 day vacation with our family and we had such a fabulous time at this resort.
Food: so many amazing options at the buffet and restaurants we were never bored of the food great variety. Added touch was the shots available every other night and the random party truck that just showed up at the beach with corona and popsicles.
Hotel: was immaculate and the staff were exceptional. The evening entertainment was so much fun the staff worked incredibly hard. We stayed in block 33 and it was a great location for the beach and close to the central area. The rooms were set up great for a family of 4 with a long bed and two twin beds in a separate room. Also 3 shops with souvenirs, essentials and food which the kids loved. There was also a photographer on site and available to take pictures around the pool or session with family.
Beaches and Pools: there was 8 pools to choose from and we enjoyed visiting them all. The main dome was a highlight for the kids and also what we called the bridge pool. We also spent some time at the pool furthest away and they had great burgers! The beach was awesome, in a small cove you could swim out to the caves and do some jumping off the rocks. It is a little rocky so be sure to bring water shoes and a snorkel there was so many fishes swimming underneath. My son had a blast searching for crabs and we even saw an octopus one evening!
I would highly recommend this hotel we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

never again
Its a very busy and noisy hotel. The buffet was not that tasty and the pools very extremely crowdy. People were fighting to get the best sunbeds and was ignoring rules around reservations on these.
Ww basiclly fled out of the hotel every morning after we have had breakfast.

This property had everything you could ever need for a family. So many dining options, drinks all day long, a splash pad, food trucks, a playground, a beach next door, a games arcade, a nightly show… just everything you need! Our only grip was that we were upsold our apartment with a view to the show in the evenings and although our apartment was absolutely gorgeous, the trees shielded the view of the show from our terrace.

The property itself was amazing, big pools cleaned daily and surrounded by trees which was lovely. There was a stage for activities and performances.The rooms were nice and big too but the bathroom door was broken so people could easily look in and the air con wasn’t working well. The staff were nice and helpful especially at the main bar. Food options were ok nothing amazing, would not recommend for a vegetarian and all the restaurants are buffet style where the food types didn’t really change. I expected atleast one proper restaurant. It was good for 3 days but really could not have stayed longer because of the food. Honestly expected better for the price paid and since it’s 4 stars. The only thing that made the experience better was the near by beaches for example Cala Mondrago. Will not be visiting again though.
