The staff demonstrated exceptional hospitality, and the culinary offerings were diverse and of high quality. Furthermore, the beach is conveniently located within walking distance and features an excellent beach and pool bar.

Solo trip

Can’t fault my stay, was relaxing and the staff truly are fantastic. Everyone was always so happy to help. Food was decent and they switched up with theme nights with a lot of the staples still available. Entertainment was really good fun, I didn’t know what to expect!
As a solo man from Scotland it was strange being it a hotel full of German speakers but everyone was great and seemed like they were equally having a great time. I was the only Brit at the hotel so something to consider if that bothers you but I always felt welcome.

The property is nice but they need to upgrade food options. They also need to equip the rooms with charging ports.
Staff needs to be more friendly while the guest are there and when they are leaving.

We had a fantastic time celebrating our wedding anniversary with friends.
As soon as we arrived at reception we were all welcomed by the friendly and efficient staff. Temperatures were taken on entry to the hotel. The bedroom was very comfortable and a good size, with a side sea view. The hotel surprised us by decorating our bed with beautiful fresh flowers for our anniversary. They also supplied us with a complimentary large fruit bowl & a bottle of wine. It was a lovely gift. We even decorated our dinner table that evening with beautiful flowers.
The restaurant was well organised. Temperatures taken before you entered & spotlessly clean throughout. There was a great choice of dishes which varied throughout our 4 day stay. The food was delicious.
The bar had a great selection of drinks Comfortable arm chairs and quiet areas to sit and relax.
The hotel outdoor pool looks fantastic. It was just opened on our last day. We went to the beach every day which is a short 5 minute stroll through beautiful plant arranged gardens. We also used the indoor pool. It was a nice temperature, not too big but we always went early in the morning when it was quiet.
I highly recommend this hotel. Beautiful throughout but what really makes your stay exceptional, is the
staff, in all of the departments. They work extremely hard to give you an excellent customer service. They are all working as a team and it’s a pleasure to stay. Needless to say we are returning.

Nice hotel in a very noisy area

If you are not ok with a very loud tasteless music from several directions simultaneously, and the fact that there is nothing around the hotel where you can go or run, including the beach, which is only clean where you paid for it, then it's not your option. The beach is super clean and private, but it's squeezed between the two neighbouring private beaches with pears, which steel the sea panorama... Otherwise the hotel, the staff (excluding the lady working at the pool bar and the one called \"doctor\" who doesn't even want to know what happened, she says \"i can only do disinfection\" immediately when she sees you) could not do more to please the guests, the food was tasty (the drinks were not, but that's not a problem for us), rooms are cosy (but don't open the balcony door or you get hit by sound wave, at least in the evening). We stayed here in the end of october, and the hotel was one third full, which was pleasant but hardly will be the same in summer. And since it was not full it was particularly closed: no steam bath, no fish restaurant (see that beautiful terrace with the sea view at the pictures? It's closed), even the menu shrank during our stay, the last days whey had less food bars comparing to the beginning. Otherwise good:) The price was good, too, and it's close to the airport.

it was an overall great experience although i have two suggetions

2- please consider putting a tall mirror in the rooms so costumors can change clothes easily

In die Jahre gekommenes 5 Sterne Hotel- eher kleiner im Vergleich zu den Riesigen Hotels in der Nähe.

Bevor ich anfange, erst mal danke schön an der Rezeption an den Mitarbeiter Enes, der mit seiner professionellen Art unser Problem gelöst hat.

Das Angebot an Speisen und Getränken ist sehr reichhaltig , vielfältig und für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei. Einfach nur lecker.
Großes Kompliment an das Küchenteam !
Leider gibt es am Abend immer wieder Gäste, die mit Badelatschen und schnuddeligen Achselshirt zum Essen kommen, obwohl ein Hinweisschild vorhanden ist.

Das finde ich nicht gut in einem 5-Sterne-Haus. Vielleicht sollte man seitens der Hotelleitung, diese Gäste noch mal zum \"Umziehen\" schicken.
Das Italienische Spezialitäten-Restaurant können wir leider nicht empfehlen, da dort der Service nicht gut war und die Speisen nur lauwarm.Vielleicht wird dieses Problem ja inzwischen gelöst sein.

Das Hotel liegt direkt am Strand, nur durch einen gepflegten Garten getrennt, der Übergang zum Wasser ist kieselig. Nur wenige Schritte vom Hotel entfernt gibt es diverse Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Mit Privat-Transfer dauerte die Fahrt zum Hotel 25 Minuten.

***Ich würde diese Hotel weiter empfehlen***
