DON’T GO THERE!
Pros:

The location was fine.

Cons:

Arriving to the hotel with a car is not recommended - there is not enough avail parking and you need to spend time to park your car.
During our 3 night stay the air condition did not work properly although asking for few times to repair it. I didn’t sleep well during my entire stay. The reception brought fans to the rooms… This was the case for both rooms we had.
The pool looks really nice on the pictures. Reality shows it is very old and not well maintained.
Breakfast was not good.
For the cost of this hotel - this is very disappointing.

Pour env. Euro 300. — la nuit en haute saison, le ratio prix/qualité est très décevant.
Pros:

Belle vue sur la mer depuis les chambres d’hôtel (mais pas plus…)

Cons:

>Les chambres de l’hôtel sont vétustes et globalement usées (tapisserie qui se décolle, sanitaires usés, etc…) l’hôtel mériterait globalement une rénovation.
>Le nettoyage n’est globalement pas suffisant, les chambres ne sont pas propres, pas assez de personnel de nettoyage, vu le nombre de client dans l’établissement.
>File d’attente à la machine à café au petit déjeuner et machine fréquemment en panne
>La piscine ne donne pas l’impression d’être très propre (ne donne pas envie).
>Pas possible de dormir la fenêtre ouverte à cause des moustiques.
>Repas du soir OK mais repas de midi très médiocre.

Pros:

Die Lage ist der Wahnsinn. Die Kombination aus Pool und Meer erfüllt alle Wünsche. Das Frühstück und das Abendessen sind hervorragend. Darüber hinaus gibt es noch einen Fitnessraum der zwar klein aber fein ist. All diese Dinge hat man mir ständigem Blick auf den Atlantik. Das gesamte Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Einen Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel kann ich mehr als nur empfehlen!

Cons:

Nichts, alles bestens 👍

Muito boa!
Pros:

Vista, estrutura, piscina, comida, silêncio.

Cons:

Duas sugestões: o box do duche poderia ter uma porta que impedisse a água de escorrer para o chão da casa de banho.
Após as 22h, não há mais nenhuma refeição, mesmo que pronta. Sugere-se que tenham, pelo menos, sandes prontos (mesmo que frios) à disposição dos hóspedes, o que não requer preparo da cozinha.

Pros:

Amazing location, biggest pool in continental Europe, lovely combo of a luxury hotel and a surfers’ beach

Cons:

Actually, we liked pretty much everything. The restaurant staff were sometime slow and untrained, but this is a minor detail

Großes Hotel direkt am Strand mit Riesenpool
Pros:

Das Hotel hat eine wirklich außergewöhnliche Lage direkt am Atlantik, mit einem gigantischen Salzwasser-Pool, der von seicht, bis sehr tief reicht. Wunderbar zum Schwimmen. Das Personal ist extrem freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Zimmer sind gut in Schuss gehalten, sehr sauber, toller Zimmerservice. Parkplätze sind beim Hotel inkludiert. Der herrliche Strand liegt neben dem Pool (öffentlich).

Cons:

Man merkt, dass man sich bemüht, das Hotel in Schuss zu halten - aber dennoch: es ist ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen. Aber das sind nur Kleinigkeiten. Wirklich gestört hat uns der absolut lieblose Poolbereich, mit fürchterlichen Plastik-Liegen. Das hat den Flair von 1990. Dazu kommt, dass die Hotelgäste sich mit Tagesgästen mischen, hier gibt es so gut, wie keine Abtrennung. Hier hätten wir uns mehr Engagement erwartet. Auch die "Pool-Bar" ist absolut minimalistisch und bietet weder Pool, noch Bar Stimmung.

Vue magnifique sur l’océan
Pros:

Sa vie sur l’océan et la piscine de taille exceptionnelle

Cons:

Le service de restauration, dont la carte ne correspond pas aux standards d’un établissement de ce type, ce qui est dommage.

Pros:

Localização

Cons:

Na recepção apanhámos uma raoariga nova que não sabia praticamente nada.
Informações simples, ia sempre perguntar. Não gostámos da atitude.
