Los empleados en general son geniales y super amables, el parque acuático divertido a falta de alguna atracción más.
The room was not bad although a bit outdated (or at least that's the feeling it gives, maybe because of the type of furniture), I didn't like finding a cable in the door frame leading to the balcony, and the bathroom needs an update, painting the bathroom tiles doesn't seem bad to me, but at least they should do it with more care and detail.
The dining room needs an update and a little pampering, the hot food was good but I missed a bit more variety.
I didn't like finding a broken manhole cover or hatch exposing cables in the same space as the pool next to the main living room.
La habitación no estaba mal aunque un poco anticuada (o al menos es la sensación que da, será por el tipo de muebles), no me gustó encontrarme un cable en el marco de la puerta que da al balcón, y al baño le hace falta una actualización, que le pinten los azulejos al baño no me parece mal, pero al menos que lo hagan con más cuidado y detalle.
El comedor necesita una actualización y un poco de mimo, la comida caliente estaba buena pero eche en falta algo más de variedad.
No me gustó encontrarme una arqueta o registro con la tapa rota dejando al aireos cables en el mismo espacio de la piscina que resta junto al salón principal.

Mis hijas de 7 años han disfrutado muchísimo en el aquafun;la habitación muy bien y las camas enormes y muy cómodas,la comida en el restaurante variada y muy rica,y los snacks de la piscina en la misma linea,sin duda el año que viene volveremos.
The umbrellas in the aquafun do not provide good sun protection, there is no place with good shade reserved for older or vulnerable people; we had all-inclusive but there are many snacks that are not included in the aquafun bar, however, you pay for them at half price...
Las sombrillas en el aquafun no protegen bien del sol,no hay un sitio con buena sombra reservado a personas mayores o vulnerables;íbamos con todo incluido pero hay muchos snacks que no entran en el bar del aquafun,eso sí,los pagas a mitad de precio...

Lo que más nos ha gustado ha sido la zona de piscina con toboganes, muy divertido. Las habitaciones son amplias y cómodas. La comida buffet variada. Todos los días hubo animación, tanto para grandes como para pequeños. El hotel se encuentra en una urbanización tranquila con amplias zonas verdes. La playa está cerca.
The door leading to the hallway does not isolate anything and you can hear all the noises when someone walks by. A lot of people during the buffet hour.
La puerta que da al pasillo no aísla nada y se oyen todos los ruidos cuando pasa alguien. Mucha gente a la hora del buffet.

Sin lugar a dudas el personal del hotel 10. Fuimos con un bebé de 11 meses y nos dieron todas las facilidades del mundo y se portaron genial desde que entramos. Nos dieron todas las facilidades para la comida. Personal del comedor un 10.
They have to improve the management of the bars, I can't pay for an all-inclusive and wait half an hour to order a mojito, soft-drink, or whatever.
Tienen que mejorar la gestión de las barras no puedo pagar un todo incluido y esperar media hora para pedir un mojito, refresco o lo que sea.
