Pros:

Sam hotel bardzo ładnym miejscu. Ale nie ma nic ciekawego w około. Jeśli zależy ci na leżakowaniu jest to super miejsce nad samym brzegiem oceanu. Posiada ładny czysty basen z widokiem na ocean.

Cons:

Ubogie jedzenie w restauracji. Mały wybór. Śniadania dobre ale lunch i kolacja ta sama karta i było nie dopracowane. Przykładowo ośmiornica twarda a kalmary za bardzo wysmażone lub za długo na grillu i były gumowate.

Celý hotel je v skutočnosti zanedbanejší ako na fotkách, ale napriek tomu sme si tam veľmi dobre oddýchli.
Pros:

Hotel je v krásnej záhrade, je tam ticho a človek, ktorý netúži po množstve plážových aktivít si skutočne oddýchne. Na súkromnej pláži vás nikto neotravuje.

Cons:

Personál bol miestami otrávený, odtok v kúpeľni mierne páchol. Ale nič nezvládnuteľné. Pláž trpí vysokým prílivom/odlivom a more je plytké.

Pros:

Nagyon jó helyen található a reptér közelsége miatt!

Cons:

Nem volt tisztaság, elhanyagolt, és eléggé lehúzós volt!

Pros:

I only stayed for 20 hours; very close to airport, right on the ocean; you can swim in the pool or enjoy beach/ocean; beach was populated by a lot of teenagers and young adults playing ball games and music; nice atmosphere, security keeps them on public stretch so you can enjoy privacy; I liked it
