Contrary to all expectations, the hotel rather disappointed us. However, the overall package was right. The hotel has definitely not deserved a rating of 5 stars for us, more like 3.5 stars.

Reason:
There is not enough choice of seafood and fish dishes in the main restaurant for that you are in a place right by the sea
The food is almost always the same and also quickly cold.

The cleanliness of the room left a lot to be desired

The rooms do not correspond at all to the pictures you see on the internet and are now shabby.

Children's entertainment is also very poor. Every evening there is a children's disco that is also fun for the children, but the children's entertainment during the day is not exactly impressive when the children are painting and the entertainers are chatting together most of the time.

Spa? - There is a sauna which has to be paid for separately. 10 / h

Fitness room - very spartan. An elliptical cross trainer that is defective and two treadmills, one of which is squeaking very loudly more than the other. You can still get around an hour pretty quickly.

Drinks & AI - regardless of the fact that it is a family resort and not malls, I still think it's a cheek that all "alcoholic" drinks, which are all inclusive, contain almost no alcohol at all. The coffee you get is as good as undrinkable. For a decent coffee and for "real" alcoholic drinks you pay a surcharge of 3-5 .
I expect more from an all-inclusive vacation!

Staff - apart from the fact that the season is drawing to a close, you can tell that some service staff and entertainers are listless. Sometimes very unfriendly. But there are also a few employees who always had a smile on their faces and were very helpful.

The fantastic beach can be mentioned as a big pro!
