Beautiful hotel with a fantastic staff.
Pros:

Breakfast was great. The restaurant was delicious for dinner, but I felt it was difficult to find lunch while at the facility. The live music was great. The staff was exceptional!

Food choices during the day and afternoon

Pros:

Dobre śniadania, basen, blisko morza.

Cons:

Hotel wymaga remontu. Barierki na tarasie przerdzewiałe, wręcz niebezpieczne. Zgłosilśmy śniadania bezglutenowe dla córki. Dwa dni z rzędu nie miała chleba tostowego. Przez 3 dni przynoszone dla niej te same ciastka. W jeden dzień dostała bułkę do hamburgera. Owszem za ten dzień zostało nam odliczone 10 euro ale nie o to nam chodziło...

Struttura ideale per il nostro scopo.
Pros:

Noi abbiamo scelto questa struttura come punto di riferimento per visitare la regione. Quindi il nostro scopo non era la vita da spiaggia.
La colazione era di nostro gradimento.

Cons:

L'utilizzo obbligatorio della cuffia per la piscina. Oramai non viene mai richiesto l'uso della cuffia nemmeno nei grandi centri di piscine o spa.

Gutes Hotel mit Felsstrand nicht weit vom Flughafen
Pros:

Besonders gut gefallen hat uns hier, dass wir früher einchecken konnten! Am Felsenstrand war eine sehr freundliche junge Mitarbeiterin, die uns schöne Liegen direkt am Wasser gegeben hat ohne Aufpreis (es war auch nicht so voll).
Gute Lage, da wir früh zum Flughafen mussten, der nicht weit entfernt ist

Polecam bardzo
Pros:

Lokalizacja, śniadanie, bliskość plaży z leżakami i parasolem dla każdego pokoju, basen (nawet do 2,5-3 metrów głeboki), skuteczna klimatyzacja, balkon z miejscem na suszarkę.

Cons:

Dość gorąco na stołówce podczas śniadania. Materac na łóżku osobiście preferuje twardszy.

Pros:

Széles választék, jó minőség, finom ízek.

Cons:

1. A tájékoztatóban és a foglalás során sem jelezték, hogy a szálloda kültéri medencéjét csak úszósapkával lehet használni, vásárlásra pedig nem volt lehetőség a helyszínen.
2. Az ott-tartózkodás utolsó napján nem lehetett ingyen használni a napernyőt és -ágyat, a kb. 1 órás időtartamra sem. (25 euró)
