"Start with bad bits, check in waiting time could be shorter as I had pre checked in but they where very good in organising changing our room. The worse thing are the amount of steps if you aren't that agile. The room was very good and aircon brilliant. Bed a bit hard. The position of the hotel is excellent, plenty of good restaurants close and loved the beach bars. We would rebook the hotel again. The pool was beautiful and clean.the whole holiday was good value"
