Pros:

Das nicht übergrosse Hotel abseits vom Trubel ist nur durch eine wenig befahrene kleine Strasse vom kleinen, flach abfallenden Sandstrand getrennt. Zudem hat es diverse Pools, Bars und Restaurants. Unser Zimmer hatte freie Meersicht und bequeme Betten, das Bad war aber etwas eng. Beim Buffetmenü waren die kalten Vorspeisen und die Desserts sehr gut, die warmen Speisen hingegen nur durchschnittlich. Teller werden selten abgeräumt.

Pros:

An sich eine sehr schöne Anlage, tolle Pools,
Der Strand war auch sehr schön, das Wasser sehr sauber
Leider stimmt das Preis Leistungsverhältnis nicht wirklich, man hat den Eindruck das es nicht einem 5 Sterne Haus entspricht
Gerade was die Sauberkeit vom Zimmer bis zur Anlage angeht
Das Personal war sehr freundlich, jedoch nicht entsprechend einem 5 Sterne Haus

Pros:

My stay at the hotel was absolutely perfect! From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome and taken care of. The room was spotless, beautifully designed, and incredibly comfortable. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, and the service was exceptional. The location was ideal, and the breakfast exceeded all expectations. I truly had an unforgettable experience and would recommend this hotel without hesitation to anyone looking for a top-notch stay!

Not a 5 star hotel and poor services
Pros:

Hotel rates itself as 5 star and it is not a superior or luxurious standard at all. We’ve booked a room with private pool for superior experience and the toilet was dirty, curtains falling off. In the gym, all threadmills and gym machines were not functional with no towel offered and we were astonished with the poor quality of the hotel for a 5 star. This should be rated a 3 star hotel at most. We’ve asked for refund of the payment and left early morning of the following day. I would suggest travellers to not take their pictures for real and level set that it is not a 5 star service nor structure. We have advised Hotels.com of the lack of alignment between the pictures in the website and in real conditions and encourage travellers seeking superior experience not to book it.

Pros:

Beautiful resort, lovely spacious and nicely decorated room.

Cons:

Breakfast was the same every single day for a whole week. Not much to do in the area if you're a bit adventurous or like to travel around a bit.
