La ubicación es estupenda, junto al precioso parque de los lagos, muy cerca del supermercado y farmacia, y con muchas tiendas alrededor.
Servicio de bus privado a la playa, con un chófer de 10.
Shows espectaculares por las noches (ilusionismo, ipnotismo, comedia).
Música en directo por la tarde-noche, en el piano de cola.
Dos botellas de agua de cortesía en el minibar (aunque éramos 3).
Merece mucho la pena la zona y la preciosa playa!!!
Necesita una mejora en las habitaciones, como cambiar las papeleras oxidadas de los baños, la alcachofa fija de la ducha que estaba rota, y algunos otros elementos deteriorados por el paso del tiempo, que no dan muy buena imagen (lámparas de la mesilla, tendedero de la ropa).
El parque acuático está masificado, debería destinarse una zona de tumbonas, solo para clientes del hotel, y dependiendo de la ocupación del hotel, limitar el aforo a la gente de fuera. Elegimos este hotel por el parque acuático para el niño y al final limitamos su uso, porque no había dónde ponerse, ni se cabía en la piscina (era tema de conversación entre varios clientes del hotel).
Estaría bien ampliar el horario del transporte privado a la playa.
En el comedor había bastantes moscas, posadas algunas en la zona de los quesos, y alguna que vino a la mesa.
El check-in cada vez es más tarde!!!

El parque acuatico para ser dentro de un hotel está súper bien.
Y lo mejor el buffet ,comida de calidad y variada. Reponiendo constantemente.
Uno de los mejores hoteles que he comido.
The baths need a change and a bit more cleaning in the rooms.
A los baños le hace falta un cambio y algo más de limpieza en las habitaciones.

Trato del personal, limpieza de todas las instalaciones. El parque acuático genial e ideal para ir en familia.
I miss the snack theme between meals in the all-inclusive. There was never anything in the show bar, and in the water park bar, only some types of pastries from 5:00 p.m.
Heche de menos en el todo incluido el tema de snacks entre comidas. En el bar de espectáculos nunca hubo nada y en el bar del parque acuático solo a partir de las 17:00 algunos tipos de pasteles.

Estuvo todo bien, la comida buena, el personal muy amables, las señoras de la limpieza muy serviciales
El gimnasio muy básico, la piscina del hotel muy pequeña, a partir de las 19:00 se llena a tope, el edificio necesita una pequeña actualización, pero bueno cosas q no impidieron q nos pasáramos bien.

No no gustó nada !! Ni el servicio de limpieza de las habitaciones no merece nada la pena
To pay the fortune we have paid, the hotel is full of people from outside, there is a buffet and the pool is packed with people from the street, the room cleaning is the worst, you can't even eat anything, not even the food.
Pagar el dineral que hemos pagado el hotel llevo de gente de fuera llevo buffet y la piscina a tope de gente de la calle , la limpieza de las habitaciones de lo peor, no te comiendo nada ni la comida tampoco

La animación para los niños
It would be convenient to better isolate the rooms because you can hear everything and we can't rest. We had the bad luck of having next to our room a family with a dog that wouldn't stop barking and at night they made noise until late with alcohol and joints, and on the other side a man who snored and it seemed like he was in my bed, horrible otherwise everything was fine.
Sería conveniente aislar mejor las habitaciones porque se escucha todo y no se puede descansar nosotros tuvimos la mala suerte de tener al lado de nuestra habitación una familia con perro que no dejaba de ladrar y por las noches se llevaban hasta las tantas dando guerra con alcohol y porros y al otro lado un señor que roncaba y parecía que lo tenía en mi cama, horrible por lo demás todo bien

The room for two adults and two 4-year-old children is a bit tight.
Las habitación para dos adultos y dos niños de 4 años un poco justa

Las actuaciones y actividades para los niños
The all-inclusive is not "all-inclusive". Only certain things are included, not all. They ask for a deposit for the bracelets, the towels... and at 11 pm the "all-inclusive" ends completely and if you want any drink (soft drink, hot chocolate for children..) you have to pay for it in full. I think it's an abuse considering the price of the bookings paid because it is ALL-INCLUSIVE.
El todo incluido no es "todo incluido". Unicamente entran ciertas cosas, no todas. Piden fianza por las pulseras, las toallas... y a las 23h se acaba del todo el "todo incluido" y si quieres cualquier bebida (refresco, colacao para los peques..) hay que pagarlo integro. Me parece un abuso para el precio que tienen las reservas que se paga porque es TODO INCLUIDO.
