6.9 Patricia Travelled with couple June 2025
Buffetten waren uitgebreid, show cooking had lekkere gerechten gemaakt door sympathieke koks. Mooie omgeving !
Heel gehorige kamers (kamer met tussendeur). Heel erg druk omwille van jeugdgroepen die doorheen het hele hotel ongecontroleerd hun gang gingen en vooral in het restaurant enorm veel lawaai en chaos veroorzaakten. Restaurant erg ongezellig... 'refter' zou een betere omschrijving zijn.
Good
8.9 Pilar Travelled with family August 2025 What we liked the most was the animation and the pool slide.
Lo que más nos ha gustado ha sido la animación y el tobogán de la piscina
The grilled food was very tasty, but dishes like oxtail stew or beef cheeks needed more cooking time and the meat was a bit tough.
La comida que hacían a la plancha estaba muy rica, los guisos como el rabo de toro o las carrilleras les faltaban tiempo de cocción y estaba un poco dura la carne

6.1 Antonella August 2025 The pool, the entertainment, the proximity to the beach
La piscina, la animación, la cercanía de la playa
The buffet food is terrible, some things are okay but overall the taste is quite poor, it was not appetizing despite being all-you-can-eat. Paying 770 for three nights for two adults and two children with Full Board seemed very excessive to me because the quality of the food was really bad.
La comida del buffet es pésima, se salva alguna cosa pero en general de sabor bastante pobre, no apetecía comer a pesar de tener buffet libre Pagar 770 por tres noches dos adultos y dos niños con pensión completa me ha parecido muy excesivo porque la calidad de la comidas de verdad que era mala

9.7 Laura Travelled with family August 2025 We have been incredibly well! The staff is very attentive, friendly and nice. The cleaning ladies, the bar staff, the reception staff, and highlighting the excellent work of the entertainment staff who are in charge of entertaining children and the not so little ones all day long, non-stop. We had read in some review that the food was very disappointing, but during our stay, it was not like that, there was variety every day, paella, fideuá, black rice, mussels, clams, salads, ribs, turkey, chicken, assortment of cold cuts and cheeses, chocolate fondue, churros with chocolate... In short, very good as a buffet! We return to Barcelona delighted!
Hemos estado increíblemente bien! El personal es muy atento, amable y simpático. Las chicas de la limpieza, los del bar, los de recepción y destacar la labor inmejorable del personal de animación que se encargan de distraer a los peques y a los no tan peques durante todo el día, sin parar. Habíamos leído en algún comentario que la comida dejaba mucho que desear, en nuestra estancia, no ha sido así, variedad todos los días, paella, fideuá, arroz negro, mejillones, almejas, ensaladas, costillas, pavo, pollo, surtido de embutidos y quesos, fondue de chocolate, churros con chocolate... En resumen, muy bien como buffet! Volvemos a Barcelona encantados!
To put something... Would we change the coffee, which we didn't like?
Por poner algo... Cambiaríamos el café, que nos nos gustó 😅

El equipo de animación me pareció genial
The room cleaning didn't change sheets throughout the week, last year I stayed in the same hotel chain and it was all different and much better, the variety of food was terrible and the quality also left something to be desired.
La limpieza de las habitaciones no cambiaron sábanas en toda la semana, el año pasado estuve en la misma cadena de hoteles y era todo diferente y bastante mejor, la variedad de comida pésima y la calidad también dejaba que desear.

9.7 Cristina Travelled with family August 2025 Very happy with all the staff. Everyone very friendly and very professional. I really liked the tranquility in the rooms and the pool. Despite being a hotel for families with children, there was no overcrowding. Also, we met very friendly families. My children were delighted with the entertainment staff. Easy car park at the hotel's front door.
Muy contentos con todo el personal. Todos muy amables y muy profesionales. Me ha gustado mucho la tranquilidad en las habitaciones y la piscina. A pesar de ser un hotel para familias con niños,no había saturación. Además, coincidimos con familias muy amables. Mis hijos vinieron encantados con el personal del animación. Facilidad para aparcar en la misma puerta del hotel
