Awesome stay
Pros:

Location, staff and family feel to the resort. Pool and gym excellent. Evening entertainment fantastic.

Cons:

Thin walls so expect some noise in the room, room very hot! Ground floor and had window ajar but still very hot! One lifeguard sat outside talking for the day not even in the pool area, only thing that didn't feel was up to scratch

Pros:

The location is perfect for the beach. We stayed one night but were able to use the car park with EV charging and all the facilities the whole day after the checkout. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

You have to be fairly fit for the walk to the beach and back: it is a sandy path in the dunes.

Un endroit très sympathique
Pros:

L’emplacement et les activités proposées pour petits et grands sont un must...

Cons:

Si vous avez entre 18 et 25 ans (même accompagné par plus anciens), pensez à avoir votre carte d’identité sur vous si vous souhaitez boire un verre de vin ou bière à table...

Pros:

excellent breakfast
comfortable bed, and spacious room
good quality bedding
short walk to the beach

Cons:

cold plates at breakfast buffet, food chilled very quickly, so almost cold by the time you have managed to finish.
poor selection of drinks choice at bar, particularly wine.

small selection of t bags and coffee on arrival, labelled 'welcome pack' no refills during duration of stay, if you need any more you have to pay for them.

bathroom very tired and 'dated'

would have preferred option of a king size bed, rather than a standard double

children's disco hour was disappointing, as just a large screen playing dance videos, with no one to help the toddlers do the steps.
could see the toddlers struggling with how to do the dances. [needed someone on stage to encourage them]

evening entertainment, was either a quiz or just dance music.

reminded me of holiday camps from the 1960's [although it had a quaintness about it]

Close to the beach and a nice place to stay
Pros:

Great access to the beach and having a pool sauna and steam room to use was good.

Cons:

Lack of air conditioning in the room, and would have been nice if the bar lounge was open in the afternoon. They do sell some basic supplies at reception but having lodges onsite a well stocked shop would really help.

Very welcoming pleasant stay with a lot of facilities for families with young children
Pros:

Location perfect for beach access

One improvement would be to have a bigger onsite shop for all those items people forgot to bring
