Myself, my husband and my two sons stayed here in May 2019. The resort is absolutely massive, much more than picture detect. We arrived in the afternoon after a long travel journey. We were given keys to our apartment and told to wait for a buggy to take our bags down, half an hour later we were still waiting. There was no formal introduction on how the resort works or where things are. Bit strange for a 5 star hotel. We were just left to find things out ourself.
Our room was dated, white wicked furniture and needed a good lick of paint. Tv was in German only, no tea and coffee making facilities. The fridge was empty barring water bottles. Again lacked any home comforts.
The kids club was great, and the girls that run it are lovely!! Our kids really enjoyed this bit.
The water park is actually up a small hill so you have to leave the resort to get there. It was very quiet which was great for us. I guess May the water and temp is still fairly cold. Averaging 22c
There is a small shop accross the road which sells essentials, but nothing in english. No magazines or papers, and everything is highly over priced.
The main dinning area is fine, good chouce of food. It is however extremely busy and chaotic!! But plenty of choice.
The restaurant and pool at the beach is lovely and worthy of 5 stars. I think if you've been to a 4/5 star hotel else where you would probably agree this is only just pushing a 4 star.
There was a lack of customer service which you would get else where. Some of the staff are friendly, some are not.
The gardens are well kept. The indoor pool is small and very chaotic with kids on a bad weather day.
The small farm advertised is actually far away and not near the hotel and it still cost money to get into it. The website for club marine I feel is a little misguided!
I think as long as you don't have high
expectations this hotel is fine, but if you do then you'll probably be dissatisfied.
