Good Hotel
Pros:

This is a lovely well maintained hotel. Had a fabulous view over pool and seafront, with direct access to beach through gate. Good sized pool, with various activities going on. Location is spot on with the Marina just a short walk away.
Only had bed and breakfast which was very tasty.
Spacious room, with fab Aircon. On arrival we had a complimentary bottle of wine, water and pastries which was very welcome
Had a small maintenance issue, which was very quickly resolved
My only minor gripe was no kettle, but you can hire one,which we did, however you have to wash up in the bathroom sink, with no washing up liquid or dishcloth etc provided.
All staff work very hard, everywhere very clean.
3 small lifts, but wasn't a problem, often using it alone, or only waiting a short time for them to become free.

Wonderful hotel. We will be back
Pros:

This hotel is in a fantastic location. We booked rooms facing pool. We didn’t get sun on balcony as I think sun too high for that but it’s so hot we were glad. We went for breakfast once but so busy and not much left as we were nearer 10,30 when it finished. We ate several times at pool bar. Food was really good. Sun beds were available until after 10am thanks to the staff removing towels . A special mention to Elliot at the pool He is an asset to the hotel. So friendly and welcoming. We were treated like family. Couldn’t do enough for us and other guests. Drinks served to our sun-beds with a great sense of humour. Made our holiday. Thank you Elliot. No kids disco or kids club which is why we not booking next year as a family but will definitely come back as a couples holiday. Lots of Spanish people compared to british but we are in Spain. I think it says how good the hotel is when locals like to holiday here.

Pros:

El hotel como siempre muy bien, buena ubicación y lo mejor de todo siempre el personal, tanto recepción, camareros, socorristas ( este año Marco es majisimo) y especial mención a Miguel de animación, de lo mejor que he visto, todo el rato hablando con la gente para que participara y en el aquagym cada dia bailes y canciones nuevas, nunca repetía...es un crack

Cons:

Aún quedan algunos detalles pir renovar en algún pasillo de alguna planta, pero es mínimo y solo por mencionar algo que no fue perfecto

Я бы посоветовала сделать косметический ремонт а особенно в баре на крыше немного не комфортно и пустовато
Pros:

Очень близко все находится и добираться до остановки если хочется куда-то поехать
