We stayed in Melia Dunas with my 5-year-old daughter and we had a very nice holiday.
We were welcomed at the arrival, and after check-in we were allowed to use all the facilities of the resort immediately. Unfortunately, there was a mistake in check-in, which allowed us to check in our apartment only around 16:30, rather than before.
The apartment was spacious, clean and was cleaned every day. The resort itself is beautiful, large and well maintained. There are several swimming pools, which makes you never have to get up early to book a bed.
The food was varied and there was enough choice for everyone. There are six restaurants, of which four à la carte restaurants you have to book in advance. We have had a nice dinner here.
The only point I found was the kids club, and the staff should be a little more friendly and enthusiastic. No greeting or proposal was made and little contact was sought with children to involve them in the activities.
Daily, there was entertainment at the pool for young and old, such as dance activities and games, and every evening there were fun themes and shows, which provided a pleasant atmosphere.
Despite the small point of arrival and the kids club, we enjoyed our stay enormously, and the resort offers everything for a relaxing holiday for both families and couples. We made good memories and certainly come back!"
