Pros:

Warm welcome and very friendly staff.
Beautiful setting.
Excellent cleanliness throughout the hotel and nice rooms.
Pleasant and clean swimming pool.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the quality of the evening buffet was not up to the standard of the hotel. The food was often lukewarm or cold, the selection was limited, and the overall quality was really disappointing for a hotel of this category.
On the other hand, the breakfast was satisfactory and offered a decent variety of options.
The à la carte restaurant provided a much better dining experience; however, during our six-night stay, we were only able to dine there once.

Muy recomendable, repetiríamos seguro
Pros:

La ubicación es maravillosa, hemos podido disfrutar de varios días de sol, playa y piscina cuando en el resto de la isla llovía. Nuestra habitación familiar(2 adultos y dos niños de 10 y 12 años) muy cómoda y acogedora. La mayoría de personal muy amable.

Cons:

Nuestra habitación estaba delante del altavoz del hilo músical del pasillo, tuvimos que llamar varias veces para que lo apagaran ya que a las 11,30 de la noche seguía sonando. Por otro lado teníamos media pensión, pensamos que el bufet y el otro restaurante a la carta podría mejorar bastante en cuanto a calidad y variedad, igual con el desayuno.

Pros:

Hotel leží v top lokalitě, přímo vedle krásné pláže. Jsou zde nádherné západy slunce. Bez auta se ale neobejdete, pokud chcete ostrov poznat, což za to rozhodně stojí. Vybavení je starší, personál moc milý, polopenze méně pestrá.

Cons:

Výběr v rámci polopenze by mohl být pestřejší.

El excel.lent personal de la recepció
Pros:

Totes les persones a la recepció són molt amables i eficients i sempre preparades per ajudar. Vam tenir un problema de salut amb la nostra filla i ens van ajudar en tot moment i després sempre preguntaven com estava la filla.

Pros:

Poloha hotelu je ideální pro vyjížďky všemi směry na ostrově.

Cons:

U třílůžkového pokoje bylo třetí lůžko pro dospělou osobu rozkládací s nosností tak do 50-60 kg. Poslední noc už musel syn spát na matraci na zemi, jelikož nýty držící lamely roštu byly asi unavené a tudíž nedržely rošt na svém místě. Očekával bych za tu cenu pokoje plnohodnotnou postel.

Pros:

Gute Lage in der Mitte der Insel, direkt an einem schönen Sandstrand

Cons:

Das Zimmer mit Meerblick war nicht direkt aufs Meer wie die richtigen Meerblickzimmer auf der anderen Seite des Hotels (wir haben nur ein bisschen Meer weiter entfernt gesehen.) Ich hab das Gefühl, dass man bei bookingcom oft nicht so gute Zimmer bekommt. Ob direkt buchen besser wär?
