Dunas Club

This resort is conveniently located on the seafront, 400 meters from the ferry terminal and bus terminal. >y one bedroom apartment had 2 bathrooms, a lounge/diner/kitchen and a balcony that sadly looked over the street at rear. Decor was modern and in good condition which reminded me of a premier travel inn, i.e. 3*. The kitchen had a microwave and 2 rings but no oven and no washing uo liquid was provided. Tere was a 2.50 euro per day per person charge to cover electricity. The pool was excellent and the restaurant good and reasonably priced.

We arrived at the Dunas club at 10.45pm due to a delay at Manchester . Lovely receptionist checked us in . I asked if there was anywhere around to eat and she rang the restaurant which I didn’t realise was on sight and she said if we go straight through we could get some food . The kitchen was closing but they said we could get either pizza or pasta which was great . Waitress was lovely . We had booked a sea view studio . We were in room 211 which had a balcony and side windows . Lovely bright and spacious room. Spotlessly clean . Didn’t see the outside till the next morning . Woke up to a lovely sunrise and the waves lapping on the shore . There is a road in front of the appartment but noise was never an issue . I always had the door open . Our room had had the new aircon units done . The only noise we heard was when we were going out one morning when they were drilling in a corridor but never an issue . All the staff we encountered were lovely . We had several breakfasts in la luna and a meal one night . There is a nice pizza place on the corner we got takeaway from when we had a night in . It’s about a ten min walk to the main strip . Small kitchen area with fridge didn’t really use it much except for the fridge . There wasn’t any wine glasses which I like to sit on the balcony and have one at night so bought one for 2 euros from the hyperdino . Would return.

Arrived very late (after midnight) due to flight delays from Gatwick and slight issue following RCI directions instructions but they have 24-hour reception so that was good. Had decided (in correspondence) to stick with suite (was allocated 135) rather than 'upgrade' to Studio (€20/night extra) with sea-view; that was fine - suite had large living room/kitchen/dining room, large bedroom, two bathrooms (with baths) and two balconies (useful as smoke from neighbours came into one some days) - which had a sea-view if you leant out and looked down the street. Nice location near harbour (old town - so a little walk to the main tourist area); on-site but independent restaurant (La Luna - had one breakfast and one evening meal - both fine); nice pool (mainly 5' deep - with side children's pool) with lifeguard (who was sometimes watching!) - although notices about not reserving beds were totally ignored and no action taken; generally clean and well maintained although some doors/handles were a little shaky. Unfortunately came across cockroaches in the room - staff came and sprayed after we saw the first but unsure if they got it as we trapped/killed it/a second one a day later and then saw a third in the bath overflow a couple of days later (taped it up!) As seen on another review - surprised to not find wine glasses in room. Despite these negatives, would probably stay there again.
