Best Holiday in Years
Pros:

One of the best hotels I've visited in recent years. The hotel is a spectacle, it's clean, it's welcoming and the rooms are luxurious. The sea view balcony room is a sight to behold, so much that I would stop sunbathing by the multiple pools at the hotel, to sunbath on the balcony instead. The room offered a pod coffee machine that was restocked each day which was a wonderful bonus.

The staff are brilliant, friendly and a joy to talk with. Shoutout to Juan Carlos at the Vista Restaurant attached to the hotel for the excellent iced coffees and his excellent service.

The pools are amazing, I was amazed to find one of them to be a saltwater pool (right next to the ocean) which was an excellent cold plunge in the morning. There's plenty of other standard pools around, including a heated indoor version and a rooftop version for adults only.

The hotel has various restaurants attached/a minute or so walk away, all of which are great and well worth going too. The breakfast and evening buffet is what you expect it to be, but again, I highlight the friendly service of the staff here.

The hotel also offers guest relations, in which we booked a 3 Island boat trip, they made everything easy and also included a pick-up/drop off from the hotel. They only book the best trips from the hotel which was the highlight of our trip.

Overall, this hotel deserves nothing but 5 stars. I'm actively looking to book again for this year.

Tiszta, modern, kényelmes szálloda a tengerparton.
Pros:

a hotel fekvése, a kilátás a szobából (sky view), az ágy nagyon kényelmes és hatalmas, a fürdőszoba kényelmes, a reggeli finom, az éttermek jók, a massage is jó volt. Jól éreztük magunkat!

Cons:

minden jó volt :)
