Pros:

Las personas que trabajan allí

Cons:

No me ha gustado nada. Las instalaciones muy sucias y estropeadas, las maquinas de la bebidas, batidos, ócteles súper sucias.
La comida del bufet siempre la misma, media hora antes de que cerraran ya estaba casi todo recogido , no piensan en clientes españoles, que es lo que más había allí. Las actividades casi todas para ingleses , los monitores naranjas que eran lo de los españoles no se veían por allí.
El todo incluido era hasta las 0.00 de la noche y a las 23 ya estaba cerrado el chiringuito.
No vuelvo más.

Polecamy hotel Holiday World Village
Pros:

Zakwaterowanie w hotelu Village tam „trafiliśmy”(wg nas najlepsza opcja w Holiday World)który jest w sąsiedztwie parku wodnego, przy plaży- blisko do przystanku autobusowego, postoju taxi itp. Dwupokojowy apartament z widokiem na morze, basen, duży balkon, bardzo sympatyczna grupa animatorów (raczej pod kątem brytyjskich gości, których było najwięcej), polecam aferę „All”

Cons:

Szkoda, że oferta „all” nie obowiązuje w parku wodnym na przekąski w barze - ale przynajmniej można zamówić coś do picia. Nam to mocno nie przeszkadzało bo byliśmy zakwaterowani w sąsiedztwie- ale dla gości innych hoteli to byłoby utrudnienie.
