Finally come back home. First time I am glad, my holiday ended. People who are preparing and serving food do not wear the gloves. Hotel itself very dirty and old. Definitely no a five star hotel. I wouldn't come back and won't recommend at all.
We just got back from the holiday but actually it was a nightmare. Arrogant staff, most of them don’t even bother to try speak English.
Most (if not all of them) facilities were closed (including spa and indoor pool).
Water in “heated” swimming pool below 25C
Not well maintained hotel, dirty and no lifeguard on duty. Both inside the hotel (swimming pools) and “private beach”.
In regards of the beach, 15 mins by walk. Not kept clean. I understand mess been left by the tourists but you would expect from the five star hotel to keep the facilities clean.
Definitely NOT worth the money, overrated and overpriced. And at last but not least, local travel agent (Corendon) very unhelpful.
I wish I could book with TUI instead
Family: I went with my two kids 10Y and 8Y old, and my friend her husband and two kids same age. I am used to Luxury Hotels, so my opinion: The hotel: Very beautiful scenery Room: The standard room is small fit the 3 beds but did not disturbed us as we were all day out came only to shower and sleep. Airco was working well, bathroom good. Pool: All pool premises were working and everything was cleaned and the Personal were really polite and helped at all time. Food restaurant: The main restaurant can offer everything and in very good quality. Its isn't Gourmet but its an all include so for that is really good. Entertainment: Very good well organised. Kids LOVED. I recommend and would return. Transfer: I would recommend a private transfer because the airport is far from hotels.
We enjoyed every part of our stay. Hotel staff were very friendly, smiley and so fast with every our request. Our family room was very nice, resort was clean, and well equipped. Kids loved Amazon water world and wild river, I also enjoyed wellnes and perfect massage and the food was delicious too. Great location and lots of possibility shopping around.
The cleaning of our room was poor. The floors were dirty and hadn't been vacuumed or mopped. We also ran out of toilet paper and had to go to the front desk to get more. On top of that, there was no soap in the bathroom. Smoking outside does not have any regulation, not good for non-smokers.
