We booked an 11 night stay at this hotel late in the season. It is adults only and all-inclusive
The flights and transfers all went by without incident.
We arrived at the hotel about 6pm and found our room to be small but quite well appointed. It was carpeted and clean. The room was kept clean all through our stay
The hotel is set out well, the grounds are quite flat with easy wheelchair access. Being so late in the season, the sun was quite low in the sky which meant that parts of the grounds were in shadow at different times of the day. The sunbeds seemed quite plentiful, although this might be different during high season. There was a practice there that guests would leave their inflatables for others after their departure. There was also a swap box in the Thomson reps area where guests would leave read magazines, leftover suncream, shower gel etc so that they could be recycled should anybody run out during their stay.
The reception staff were always pleasant and helpful.
The bar staff, particularly Paco, Pedro, David and Hector worked extremely hard and kept queues to a minimum. They were all cheerful, despite working long hours. The alcohol was strong and served in good measures
The restaurant staff worked hard, producing some delicious meals. Breakfasts were always very tasty which included sausages better than any I have ever had in a hotel abroad. There was always something good to eat at lunch and dinner. Having read in a previous review that they served some kind of steak pie 4 nights out of seven we were disappointed not to have been offered this even after our fourth evening. However, on the fifth night steak and guiness pie appeared…. But not for long! As soon as the tray was delivered the guests descended on it and it was gone in seconds. It was that good. Another evening steak and kidney pie was served with similar results. Sadly, we were only served steak pie twice in the eleven night stay. The waiting staff cleared the tables quickly, sometimes too quickly.
The entertainment team, Jade and James, kept the fun going throughout the day and evening, with games, quizzes etc. James is very entertaining and Jade doesn’t seem to realise just how good her voice is. Thanks guys for keeping us entertained. There were outside entertainers performing most evenings, including tributes to the Bee Gees, Drifters, Beatles, Rod Stewart and US/GB rock bands and a really good magic/illusionist show.
Clearly though, a holiday is only as good as the company you are in, the people you meet, the friends you make. We met some really wonderful people whilst we were away, including Fred, Chris, John, Eric, Doris, David, Jennifer, John, Bill, Sue and many more. We apologise to those we haven’t listed. Last but not least, a special mention to Brenda, Ronnie, Susie, Jimmy, Jean and ”Fritz”. All together now guys… “SEVEN!!!!” Thanks guys, you made it special.
