On ne reviendra pas désolé
Pros:

La superficie de la chambre

Cons:

La propreté avec la présence de colonies de fourmis dans la salle de bain la qualité du petit déjeuner et de la restauration une soirée langouste mémorable deux jours de gastro abominable alors que j avais signalé un problème de qualité du produit qui avait vraisemblablement pris un tournant dans sa fraîcheur , la langouste sentait un goût de javel signe caractéristique d’un produit avarié , j ai donc fait remonter cette information au serveur et demander de faire vérifier cela au chef ´ réponse : langouste des Caraïbes monsieur tout est normal ´ résultat deux convives out pendant deux jours . Bref un manque de professionnalisme évident je pense que l autre moitié de ma langouste a dû rester en travers d’un autre client . L animation musicale proposée lors decette soirée était intéressante seule note positive d’une note à plus de 400 euros pour trois menus . La piscine demande à être mieux entretenue et l insonorisation des logements est épouvantable .Que dire d autre ? Rien

Pobyt udany ze względu na przyjazny domek i basen, pomimo plaży zajętej przez wodorosty!
Pros:

Łatwy dojazd. Domki pięknie położone wśród zieleni. Duży pokój, odpowiednio wyposażony, fajny taras z dostępem do basenu. Basen prywatny dla kilku osób, w bardzo ładnym ogrodzie. Śniadanie pyszne chociaż tylko po francusku, czyli rogaliki, chlebek, dżemik, płatki, pyszna granola i bardzo dobra kawa. Można było do podstawowego śniadania dokupić dodatkowe jedzenie. Można, ale uważam że należałoby to zawrzeć w dość wysokiej przecież cenie.

Cons:

Plaża, plaża, plaża. Mogłaby być piękna, bo jest długa, piaszczysta i ładnym widokiem. Przeżyliśmy szok, gdy ujrzeliśmy jak zanieczyszczona jest wodorostami. Nikt tego nie sprząta!!! (A można by, np. przy hotelu na Ansel Marcel sprzątano) Ohyda! aż nie można przejść do wody. I to najwięcej tego było w okolicach hotelu Esmeralda, dalej było już trochę lepiej.

Pleasant if a bit sterile.
Pros:

Pleasant and helpful front desk staff. Comfortable bed.Strong air con,strong wifi signal. It's a good 15 -minute walk to the main area on Orient Beach,where most of the beach beds, and restaurants are located.
Hotel was nice and mostly quiet-no traffic noises. Automatic roll down shutters kept out the light,although the mechanism is a bit loud ; I was awakened each morning about 6 by my neighbor rolling up their blinds. Overall I had a pleasant stay although next trip I will choose a different hotel.

Cons:

Breakfast was the type one sees at a 1 or 2-star hotel in France . White bread.Stale cornflakes.Sugary granola. That's about it.Some melon cubes,and plain white yogurt too.
No apples,no bananas,no oranges,no porridge,no oatmeal,no prunes, no blueberries,no strawberries,etc . No multigrain breads.
If you order the egg platter(for a surcharge) it comes with previously frozen deep fried hash browns-the type they serve on airplanes. The breakfast staff was polite and efficient.And I appreciated their making me a soy latte each of my 7 mornings there.

Disappointing
Cons:

The aircon was poor
The resort is a series of bungalows like a motel with shared pools and no sea views
