We stated in a 2 bedroom villa with spa bath. Air con in main bedroom and lounge area. Villa 54. Good location to pool. Breakfast was included in our package and the buffet breakfast was very good.

Words cannot describe how bad this place was. My partner and I stayed at this hell hole about a month ago and had really high expectations. As we made our way from reception to our room our hopes slowly started to shatter. We opened the front door of our run down unit with our key to be greeted a very... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in April 2012. First Impression: Checkin was quick and easy and staff ok. Entered the Bure and it was very musty smelling and curtains could do with a good wash. Front deck is rotting. Room was spacious but with dated furnishings. The lighting was dim as the globe wattage low. The bathroom was a... More

This time we were travelling with 2 of our 3 children (16 and 14) the 19yr old stayed home to work. We stayed here for... More

Really good staff members, those that I spoke to in reception & bar were really polite & happy to help with local advice. Apartments were decent if not a little dated, garden areas around apartments were little overgrown which was a little annoying when it rained as everything you was wearing got wet when walking past. Big grounds with several... More
