Pros:

Très bel hôtel qui donne directement sur la mer. Les chambres sont grandes.

Cons:

Pour les occidentaux habitués à accéder librement à la plage, oubliez le Japon. Même à Okinawa, il n’est possible de se baigner que dans les zones réservées, ce qui est très frustrant. Au Busena il faut payer 50 euros environ pour accéder à la plage surveillée !
Les horaires de la piscine sont restreints et pas de chance pour nous, la piscine intérieure était fermée pendant tout notre séjour (nous n’avions pas été prévenus et nous n’avons pas reçu de compensation). Il a plu toute la semaine, donc cela nous a manqué de ne pas avoir de piscine couverte !

It was ok but not fantastic and the main take away is that it’s not a five star hotel by true international standards
Pros:

The grounds are beautiful rooms clean that’s not the issue there

Cons:

Ok the food stinks! the buffet is always the same and doesn’t really do quality food and I’ve seen a lot of complaints online about this so yeah that was hugely disappointing and then it’s a bit expensive inside the hotel to eat and take taxis everywhere so be aware

A stunningly, beautiful older beachfront resort but do not have the buffet dinner. It’s terrible.
Pros:

We’re staying in the club section of the resort and it’s really gorgeous. The views are stunning. The staff in general is absolutely wonderful.

We went to the La Tida restaurant for dinner last night. It was a buffet dinner, and I have to say it was the absolute worst buffet I’ve ever had.

There were several stations with the usual meat and salad and chicken, etc. The roast beef and the pork were extremely dry. The salad bar featured wilted lettuce, tiny displays of various vegetables. The chicken as well was very dry. It’s as if there was no chef responsible for this buffet. It was manned by very young servers, and although they were very polite, were extremely slow at clearing the table of used dishes.

It’s as if no staff whatsoever went to the various warmed up stations to see if everything was still warm and I assure you it was not. The “french fries” were cold and tasted like cardboard.

The cost of the meal for four of us was approximately $300 Canadian and was not worth 1/4 of that amount. I’ve had better buffet dinners at a Holiday Inn.

Bsen to porażka. Zamykany kilka razy w ciągu dnia z niewiadomych powodów. Bar przy basenie czynny dopiero od wieczora.
Pros:

Położenie hotelu.

Cons:

Hotel jest już zniszczony. Meble w pokoju, łazienka nie spełniają warunków nawet hotelu 4 gwiazdkowego.

tolle Lage, schön großzügige Zimmer, aber teure Hotel-Restaurants
Pros:

Frühstück war hervorragend, Wartezeiten davor erträglich durch Nummernvergabe, man muss die Nummer auffällig zeigen, sonst wird man übersehen, wenn auf Japanisch die Nummer angesagt wird. Die Lage ist top, der Strand auch, es gibt einen eingefassten Bereich, in dem man schwimmen darf. Angeblich sind zuviele gefährliche Tiere weiter draußen, allerdings kommt dort sofort das Riff, so dass man nicht möchte, dass die Leute auf den Korallen herumtrampeln (richtigerweise) Unbedingt Schnorchelausflug buchen, lohnt sich sehr! Ist extrem gut organisiert und nur eine mega-kurze Bootfahrt, tolle Ausrüstung wird gestellt. Poolzeiten waren etwas kurz, aber um die Jahreszeit, in der wir dort waren, kein Problem. Schöne Sonnenuntergänge und schöne Live-Musik dabei! Es ist ein Familienhotel geeignet auch für Kinder, wobei viele Asiaten weder den Pool noch das Meer nutzen und daher wenig los war draußen (im April) obwohl es sehr angenehm warm auch zum Baden war. Man muss sich den gelieferten Bademantel (kurz) überziehen wenn man im Hotel unterwegs ist, das wird aber alles gestellt und ist schön kuschelig, ebenso wie der Schlafanzug, der bereit liegt. Im Hotel kann man selbst waschen, das ist sehr günstig.

Cons:

Restaurants im Hotel sind extrem teuer, aber direkt in der Nähe kann man sich versorgen mit Family Mart oder anderen Läden. Außerdem sind einige günstige Restaurants in der Nähe erreichbar mit Taxi/Auto. Der Fitnessraum ist mager ausgestattet mit nur Laufbändern o.ä. Manchmal dauert das Valet-Parking etwas, aber das ist kein Problem. Im Bad müsste mal die Dichtung etwas erneuert werden und es kommt ein etwas schwächerer Strahl aus der Dusche, aber das Hotel isst ja schon älter, was man aufgrund perfekter Pflege aber kaum sieht.

Gutes Hotel, jedoch nicht 5 Sterne
Pros:

Das Zimmer war sehr groß, die Mitarbeiter freundlich und sprachen auch größtenteils Englisch (ich kann die negativen Kritiken diesbezüglich nicht nachvollziehen). Das Frühstück ist überragend, auch das japanische ist ausreichend (was ich nutzen musste, da ich keine Zeit zum Anstehen hatte). Der Indoorpool ist toll und auch der Sauna/Spa-Bereich. Beides hat ausreichend lange offen und es gibt kostenlose Pflegeprodukte.

Cons:

Leider habe ich keines mit Meerblick bekommen sondern ins Grüne geschaut und Fröschequaken statt Meeresrauschen gehört. Die Zimmer sind ein wenig hellhörig, man hört, wenn jemand einen Stuhl rückt. Das Restaurant Tilda mit dem Frühstücksbuffet hat Wartezeiten, ca. 20min. Sämtliche Aktivitäten waren an den Tagen, wo ich da war, geschlossen. Der Strand schließt bereits um 15 Uhr.
