Pros:

Prawdziwie resort - może nie najnowszy, ale wyjątkowo zadbany, zdaje się, że wyremontowany, z piękną roślinnością, czystymi basenami z ciepłą wodą, zaplanowanymi atrakcjami dla dzieci (pn-pt) i dorosłych (wywieszone ogłoszenia o koncertach itp). Do tego miła obsługa, która stara się pomóc i wszystko wytłumaczyć. Wjeżdża się za szlaban na prywatny parking i zawsze udało się znaleźć jakieś miejsce blisko mieszkania. Cicho, nie widziałam tłumów ani nie słyszałam głośnego imprezowania. Ogólne wrażenie bardzo pozytywne, miejsce przekroczyło moje oczekiwania.

Cons:

Na koniec pobytu pojawił się karaluch - natomiast przy przyjeździe wszystko było wysprzątane, więc nie obwiniam obiektu. Sam ośrodek jest bardzo zadbany, choć z aurą jednak pewnego retro; natomiast w bezpośredniej okolicy nie jest jakoś wybitnie atrakcyjnie - restauracje i bary przy dużej drodze. Plaża tuż obok - jest ok, bez fajerwerków. To wszystko jednak niewielkie niedogodności.

Great stay, would return
Pros:

We stayed in a 3 bedroom apartment which was very spacious. Great facilities. We really liked the tranquil pool as it was lovely and peaceful. The cafe was lovely for morning coffee. The boardwalk is fabulous and hoe's for miles in both directions. We enjoyed the night time entertainment in the bar.

Cons:

The balcony is quite closed in

Pros:

Lokalizacja bardzo przyjmena, na uboczu ale blisko do sklepów i cichej plaży. Dużo zieleni wokół. Basen duzy i głęboki, z osobna niecka dla dzieci. Fajna restauracja na terenie obiektu, z dobrym jedzeniem i przyzwoitymi cenami.
Apartament czysty i wygodny, pelne wyposażenie kuchni.

Cons:

Komary!
Jakas paranoja turystów z zajmowaniem leżaków przy basenie na cały dzień: zostawianie ręczników i znikanie na pół dnia, przez co nie było wolnych miejsc przy basenie. A obsługa z tym nic nie robiła 🥺

Great kids entertainment, great staff, am booking again for next year
Pros:

Miriam and Maria in the kids club were fabulous . They were so good at keeping the kids entertained doing art, sports, games and of course showing off the hamsters.

Cons:

Our apartment - Magarita 301 was fine but everything seems a bit tired and in need of renovation. The other apartments we have stayed in recent years (Rocio, Sofia ans Martha seemed much more comfortable and up to date).

Pros:

Beautiful place. Multiple pool areas. Sea views.
