Vraiment un beau séjour, rien ne manque à l'hôtel !
Pros:

Nous avons adoré la chambre face à l'océan, le calme, l'emplacement, tout !

Cons:

Juste un peu dommage qu'il soit possible de fumer sur une partie de la terrasse du restaurant Atlantis, la fumée ne s'arrête pas à la frontière des non-fumeurs...

Boas memórias num dia especial
Pros:

Acolhimento e disposição do staff, espaço sereno e silencioso, seguro e limpo.

Cons:

Ter o elevador avariado, foi um grande susto! O mini bar não estava a fazer frio e camas poderiam ter feito de casal já que éramos um casal.

Greenwashing, mala calidad/precio y ninguna flexibilidad con el cliente.
Pros:

Únicamente la parte técnica e infraestructuras, como la instalación de placas solares y la vista desde el spa/ piscina.

Cons:

Absolutamente todo lo demás. La experiencia fue muy desagradable por la total rigidez e inflexibilidad del personal: al salir temprano nos dieron un picnic ridículo que no compensa el buffet del desayuno ya pagado, y se negaron por completo a dejarnos cenar abonando la diferencia.
Además, usan la ecología como una burda excusa de marketing para recortar servicios y cobrarte extras por absolutamente todo (incluso por una botella de agua en la habitación o por cambiar una toalla), mientras que no tienen ni un solo detalle de bienvenida pese al elevado precio. Es una tacañería comercial indignante camuflada de sostenibilidad.

Pros:

Die Lage zum Tauchcenter ist hervorragend.
Schade gab es beim Meer unten keine kleine Verpflegung oder Kaffee. Dazu muss man in das Restaurant oder am späteren Nachmittag in die Bar.

Cons:

Das Personal im Restaurant war nicht besonders freundlich. In der Pizzeria jedoch schon.
