“FLIES... FLIES... FLIES... FLIES... FLIES...”
When booking the holiday.. basing our decision on the reviews we were really looking forward to it as we thought we had found a really lovely hotel; however....
On arriving in Nabuel the local area is very very run down. There is NOTHING to do. As we evntually found the hotel (as the transfer man didnt have a clue where he was going), from the outside it looks nice. Yoiu then enter a manky brown wishey washey reception where the small man greets you with a drink of manky orange juice which has flies in... (thats just the start of the fly concocions..)
The rooms that looked lovely in the pics were very basic... two single beds together, the plug sockets hanging off the walls and the bathroom looked like it hadnt been cleaned for a year.
For the size of the hotel, the pool is very small in camparison, luckily going in september the hotel wasnt that busy, god knows if we would of got a sunbed when the hotel was full. When sunbathin I recommend you have a fly swatter attached to every arm and leg as you will need to swat the ten billion flies that try to eat you. The so called spa... is more like an empty room with a dirty pool that isnt very big and each massage room covered inn flies, dont quite no how u r meant to relax in there....
The waiters in the restaurants are very very very grumpy and rude. Mostly having arguments with each other if another waiter sits you in the other waiters space. The pool bar staff are very friendly and liked the english, which was rare as the hotel is mostly dutch, german and polish guests.
The food was ok.. if u like chips, chicken, fish and spaghetti every lunch and dinner for the whole week then you would love it!! Although you will be attacked by flies... all over you and your food... this is VERY VERY annoying and will def start to wind you up after the first... 10 MINS!!!
Animation team was enthusiastic and tried there hardest to get everyone involved.. during the day this can be a bit annoyin as they are bugging you a bit but they did it in a friendly way and they knew not to go to far. The evening shows were good and entertaining, with good audience participation.
The beach was lovely too!
Overall I wouldnt recommend it; however if you have booked it. dont go with high expectations and you will be fine!!
