Hotel recién renovado
Pros:

El Hotel está recién renovado y da gusto, el personal muy amable y pendiente de todo, la piscina y zonas al aire libre muy agradables y cuidadas

Cons:

Que la piscina cierre a las 19:00 horas, que estamos en España y en verano.
Te cobran por la caja fuerte, el cambio de toallas de la piscina si lo quieres antes de tres días, me parece un poco excesivo
La no gestión de parking por que no es propio deberían tener un acuerdo a algo parecido que lo facilite

Lovely relaxing stay in a beautiful hotel
Pros:

We were lucky to be upgraded to a lovely room on the 8th floor, it was beautiful with a sea view. We were also lucky enough to be picked as 'VIP of the day' which gave us water and cava delivered to the room and a token for a drink each. The staff were amazing, especially Millie who went above and beyond when checking us in.
The buffet breakfast was stunning, there was so much choice and it was constantly being refreshed. There was no trouble finding a table in the morning and we used to go down about 9.30am.

The pool is beautiful, however you do have the sunbed hoggers that lay their towel down at 9.30 and then go out for the day. We never had a problem finding a bed, not sure what it would be like in the height of summer.

There were a few stag parties and while they were a bit loud around the pool they did stick to one area and didn't bother anyone, it was actually very amusing seeing the poor stag in golden swim shorts with roller skates trying to stand up. Also lots of golf groups and they even have a room for golf trolley storage.

I would recommend this hotel, it is really lovely.

10/10 for the gluten free options at breakfast
Pros:

The location was very good, easy access to beach welcome, overall the pool area was a good standard, all parts of the hotel were clean and staff were friendly
We had breakfast included as I am a celiac it is very important that there is no cross contamination with the gluten free choices. On our first morning the chef brought me around the buffet explaining what food was safe to eat, this was amazing and gave me confidence with my choice, they had my gluten free bread and pastry ready for me each morning

Cons:

Some sun bed hogging around the pool, some guests took three beds to have one in the shade when the pool area was busy this left poor choice perhaps some monitoring of this?
Overall we were very satisfied with our stay

Great hotel, perfect location.
Pros:

Great location. Plenty of restaurants and bars on the door step. Across the road from the beach. Pools, sun loungers, gym were perfect. Breakfast variety to suit all tastes. Lovely staff. Not much entertainment but not needed. Was lovely to have a quiet drink at the outside bar, where everyone socialised with each other. Rooms were modern and well maintained.

Cons:

Wanted to upgrade to a sea view but the hotel couldn't accommodate but guess there wasn't much they could do about that.

Top Hotel, ideale Lage für Ausflüge
Pros:

Sehr freundliche Mitarbeiter, extrem großer und tiefer Pool, ideal zum Schwimmen, bequemer Ausgang in Richtung Strand, sodass dieser öffentliche und kostenfreie Bereich rasch erreicht werden kann, sehr viele Liegen beim Pool vorhanden, Gastronomieangebot im Hotel sehr tool - Poolbar, separate Bar mit großartiger Öffnungszeit im Gartenbereich, Massagemöglicheit direkt beim Pool, phantastisches Frühstück mit großer Auswahl, frische Produkte, an einem Tag wurde uns ein kleiner Snack beim Pool serviert

Cons:

die Parkplatzsituation - es gibt eine extern betriebene Garage, die wir jedoch nicht genutzt haben - wir hatten das Glück, einen öffentlichen, kostenlosen Parkplatz beim Hotel zu finden
