Perfect if all inclusive as not much else within walking distance. Once all inclusive stops at property in September, not sure id stay again. Pools fantastic, plenty of sun loungers in dun and shade. Great cocktails. Very few English people (good imo) But in the middle of nowhere, 25mins walk to bus stop.

Fantastic 4 day stay at the hotel. Great pool and huge bed, we had a lovely time and we would definitely stay again. Good breakfast and the hotel and pool area were spotless. A little bit remote but once we found Paddy’s Irish Bar we were well fed and watered.

grosse déception avec cet hotel isolé de tout.20 minutes de marche pour accéder à un arrêt de bus.Aucun service de navette proposé.Ambiance hopital : bleu pale et blanc de partout sauf à l'entrée.des couloirs immenses, les chambres sont confortables et spacieuses, il manque par exemple des mouchoirs pour un 4 étoiles..Et surtout l'isolation phonique entre votre chambre et le couloir est inexistante.Aucune, mais vraiment aucune gaité dans la décoration et l'aménagement de cet hotel.Bar de la piscine/Terrasse sous bâche plastique.Pas terrible avec un sale temps ! Aucun endroit cocooning.Le réfectoire est plus horrible que celui du lyçée de ma fille...Des serviettes posées au sol pour protéger des inondations.Buffet médiocre et sans grande variété.Heureusement que le personnel est sympathique dans l'ensemble.Un petit coucou à Aida a qui nous avons appris quelques mots de français et qui s'est montré vraiment agréable.Pour l'extérieur , les façades ont des coulures de rouille, sur le blanc : c'est pas joli ! Les leds qui courent sur les arcades ne fonctionnaient pas toutes.Il y a vraiment de gros efforts à faire pour rentrer cet hotel agréable et joyeux.Pas d'animation ! Ennui mortel .J'aurais bien aimé un geste commercial sur la demi pension lors de nos absences, aller manger dans cette salle sans vie pour des vacances , heu ? bof!! Pour rappel mon commentaire se base sur un 4 étoiles.Concernant la région, lorsque vous aurez vu Carthagène, le reste a peu d'intérêt sans voiture

I think the room, staff was excellent. The breakfast itself was a typical buffet that sat under lights but wasn’t as hot as you would hope for. Fresh fruit was in short supply. I appreciate that the hotel wasn’t full and therefore so as not to waste food, choice was limited. Not a complaint just an observation.
