Pros:

Frokosten var grei. 3 svønebaseng Et barnebaseng Et 1,30m og Et del 1,40m resten 3,0m for oss svømmere. Tillagd til strand med stoler. Stranda er meget barnevennlig, langt ut til dypt vann.
Restauranten var åpen hele dagen frem til kl 21.30. med velsmakende retter.

Cons:

Vi fikk rom 321 som var merkelig innredet. Soverom hadde dør med kingsize bed og TV. Det var en stol, slik at 2 ikke kunne sitte samtidig. Det andre rommet som var åpent, og virket som det hadde vært suite var satt inn 2 senger ingen TV.
Det så ut som en felles sovesal. Hadde rom 1 hatt 2 stoler og et lite bord hadde det vært bedre. Kjøleskapet stod i sovesalen

Nichts für Preisbewusste
Pros:

Großzügige Zimmer mit Balkon. Weitläufige Anlage, in der man viele Tiere sehen kann. Ein Pluspunkt war die Tischtennisplatte, auch wenn sie mal in neue Kellen investieren sollten. Das Essen war recht gut (insbesondere die Cocktails) und der Service aufmerksam. Der Pool war riesig.

Cons:

Man wurde den ganzen Tag mit Musik berieselt, was insbesondere beim Essen sehr laut war. Andere Strände nur mit dem Auto erreichbar und abseits von anderen Lokalitäten.

Nice place, we loved it!
Pros:

We visited Nandel with my 13 years old dog and he had a great time. I appreciate pet friendly places. The pool was nice and clean. All the staff were very nice too.

Cons:

The restaurant isn't pet friendly, so we have to move far away from the restaurant tables to have our breakfast. This could be improved having a pet friendly area with tables and shade for the visitors with pets.

Nur für Kiter, die auf Hotelqualität wenig Wert legen
Pros:

Für Kitesurfer eine optimale Lage und Costa Kite als Materialverleiher - Ines & Alfredo - stechen äußerst positiv hervor

Cons:

Gesamte Anlage ist vernachlässigt und verdient keine 4 Sterne. Ausstattung im Zimmer spartanisch und z.T. defekt. Kein Kühlschrank oder Kaffeemaschine. Magere Frühstücksauswahl und Abänderung nur gegen Aufpreis. Z.B. Toast anstelle Tortilla kostet 1.200 CRC und liefert 2 Toastscheiben. Pool in 7 Tagen nie von Blättern gereinigt

We want to return to enjoy this resort when we have more time to spend exploring.
Pros:

The location of this resort is wonderful. It's tucked away and right on the beach. It was fun to watch the kite surfers do their thing all day long. It was windy which kept the air fresh. We could watch the sunset and the sunrise from the beach! The food at the restaurant was first rate and all the staff was very professional and helpful and kind.

Cons:

It looked like the grass hadn't been cut in a while which made the grounds appear uncared for. The bottom of the deep end of the pool was missing lots of tiles and was green with algae (at least that's what it looked like). There was a ping pong table but no paddles or balls. =(

Hôtel vieillot
Pros:

Nous n'avons rien aimé dans cet hôtel. Accueil : pas très agréable de devoir signer des documents de caution pour le nombre de serviettes (de bain, pour la piscine...) dans la chambre. Au petit-déjeuner, vous aurez un choix très limité. C'est vraiment le seul endroit où nous avons connu cela : où on vous demande de payer un supplément si vous souhaites quelques fruits au petit-déjeuner. Ne parlons pas de l'amabilité des serveurs !!!
Tout est vieux dans cet hôtel : les chambres, la piscine. Il n'y a vraiment rien d'attirant dans cet endroit.

Cons:

Je ne recommande pas cet hôtel.
