we booked 1week in july-august 2011. we went all inclusive.
2 adults and 1 child of 7 years old. As others have said, we were really surprised that there had been any bad reviews about the resort, as it was brilliant. We were given room number 1! which was great situated next to entrance which meant we were also close to the restaurante! However it was a bit noisy when coaches were coming and going in the front living space where my partner was sleeping on the sofa bed. But the bedroom was lovely and quiet for me and my son. we slept great. apart from the last night when some1 with clippy cloppy shoes went up and down the stairs all night and morning in the appartment above!!
We were all pleased with the food. it was great. you could eat all day if you liked! Breakfast, then brunch if you missed that. then dinner, or snack if you missed that! then tea and then late snacks til 11pm! also the pool bar/restaurante served food too. towards the end of our week a lot more people arrived at the hotel which meant that u had to queue at meal times sometimes. there was a large selection and variety of food and i am a vegetarian and there was still quite a good choice.
the room was cleaned every couple of days. but they did forget to give us more toilet roll on one occasion which we had to go and ask for.
The only complaint had really was with 1 of the bar staff. He was a male dark haired barman about 50years old who was obnoxious and i felt just didnt like woman or kids as my patner didnt seem to have a problem with him. It made me avoid going to the bar. he was rude and just seemd nasty really. All the other bar staff were lovely though. and it is good to leave tips especially if ur all inclusive.
For the kids there is choice of 3 pools! there were clubs for the children and dance classes etc that they could do although my son was quite happy in the pool all day!
the entertainment on an evening was usually quite a good laugh, and always started with a disco for the kids. there was 1night where a young lass was singing cabaret etc which was a bit annoying after a couple of songs bless her! but all the entertainers really worked hard day and night.
Basically we would definitely go again it was a brilliant all round holiday, the resort had everthing you needed really. you neednt even leave the complex. a shop was on site too.
one tip. if your a smoker there is only one shop you can buy ciggarettes from which is a good twenty minute walk from the hotel. it took my partner a day or two to find it.
