I had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The spacious room offered a fantastic sea view, and the pools were fantastic with plenty of availability. The food quality was good, especially with the delicious pizza from the snack bar. However, there were some concerns regarding the limited recycling efforts and the treatment of animals on-site, which detracted from my overall enjoyment.

Our stay was a bit of a mixed experience. The hotel has a lot of facilities, offering ample pools and a solid variety of dining options, which was a highlight.

I recently spent a week at this hotel, and while there were some good aspects, there were notable downsides. The staff were certainly friendly and helpful, and the food had its moments, but the overall dining experience felt quite lacking and repetitive. The room cleanliness was also a concern for me, but I loved the spaciousness and the beautiful view from our terrace. Overall, it was a mixed bag, and I might consider other options next time.
