I am glad we chose to ignore the negative reviews! This all inclusive hotel is charming. Yes, it isn't in the most modern style, having being built in 1982, as one of the first big developments but it is an enchanting array of apartments, nestled in beautifully kept grounds that has a magical labyrinth quality to it. The rooms are more than adequate and if anything is broken or not working then the team of staff are quick to help, fix or re-accomodate. This hotel has a diverse guest list and there are lots of languages and cultures accomodated for. If you are looking for a tacky, loud British orientated experience then don't come here. The staff spoke excellent English and the superb entertainment was presented in predominantly English but cleverly echoed in at least 4 other languages! That takes some real talent! The shows are amazing- well done Daniele and the team. The vast choice of food amplifies the hotel's efforts to cater for such a diverse range of guests and offers something different every evening. Travelling with fussy teens, I was impressed by how much they enjoyed the food and really wanted to try new things. The pool areas are well maintained and kept very clean by guests and staff. Yes, you do have to be quite quick to claim sun beds at both the pools and on the beach but on days where we were a little later, we could still find a space for 4 of us. It is lovely to have the private beach and I really recommend taking a snorkel set with you as the water is crystal clear and there is plenty to look at. There are rocks in the water, and, if like us, you are not built with the grace of a mountain goat, then a cheap pair of swim shoes is recommended to make the most out of the experience. There are local buses and taxis that can take you further into the main resort and the reception staff are happy to arrange this for you. The bars serve a good range of drinks for all inclusive guests or you can treat yourself to a named brand tipple at fairly reasonable prices. Ice creams are available from the Aphrodite restaurant during the day. You just have to ask the member of staff at the counter. An all round positive and enjoyable experience. Happy to recommend for couples and families! Hope to go back one day.
