Los baños reformados . Proximidad a Doñana
The hotel is not a four-star. It smells strongly of food.
The pool is very small, and it looks neglected because some pools are empty and fenced off.

Pleasant
Ideal para familias, muchas actividades tanto para niños como para adultos.
La comida del buffet excelente y variada, aunque se llene no hay que esperar para nada. Cercano a la playa y buena playa.
Se puede aparcar por la zona si lo necedad de pagar. Zona tranquila ya que solo hay casas (no pisos) y el hotel y poco más.
Es un solo para disfrutar del hotel y playa y no salir de ahí.
El personal de hotel han sido todos excelentes
They should open the large swimming pool, which has been closed for many years—the one they have is too small. The rooms need a renovation, but in the end, for what it is, it's fine.
Deberían abrir la piscina grande que está cerrado hace muchos años, se le queda chica la que tienen. Las habitaciones necesitan una reforma pero al final para lo que es está bien.

Nada
It’s not on the beachfront, the buffet was very repetitive and not good at all, and in the room we were given the air conditioning didn’t work (we didn’t complain because we were only staying three nights). The fridge in the room didn’t work either, it’s ancient. Another thing to mention is that on the second last day they didn’t clean the room; they put a note under the door at 4:15 pm saying they had passed by and that the “do not disturb” sign was up. Obviously, you’re there to rest and at that time you’re likely in your room, not waiting for someone to come in and make the bed. The car park (check rates at reception) is extremely expensive, it’s impossible to park outside the hotel and they only have one pool for over 400 rooms, and it’s tiny. There’s another big pool but it was empty and closed. In summary, the hotel needs a complete renovation, from the rooms to the main areas. My experience was definitely not what I expected, especially considering how much they charge.
No está a pie de playa, el buffet muy repetitivo y nada bueno, en la habitación que nos alojaron no funcionaba el aire ( tampoco pusimos queja por que la estancia fue de 3 noches),tampoco funcionaba la neverita de la habitación , tiene mas años que la tos otro aspecto a destacar es que el penúltimo día no hicieron la habitación, metieron un papel por debajo la puerta a las 16:15h para decir que habían pasado y ponía el cartel “ no molestar” obviamente vas a descansar y a esa hora donde estás es en la habitación no esperando a que pase la señora para hacer la cama ,el parking de pago carísimo, fuera del hotel imposible aparcar y solo tienen una piscina apta para 400 y pico habitaciones que es una charca, otra grande la tenían vacía y cerrada. En resumen el hotel necesita una buena reforma en general, desde las habitaciones hasta las zonas comunes.Desde luego mi experiencia no ha sido lo esperado después del dineral que cobran.

Disappointing
Las comidas son buenas, la terraza quinto cielo muy bien y la música en directo
The room could be greatly improved in several ways: it has almost no sockets for phones or laptops. I missed having complimentary bottled water.
La habitación se puede mejorar bastante en toldos los aspectos casi no tiene enchufes para el móvil o el ordenador. Echo de menos agua de cortesía.

Personal
In my opinion, this hotel has too many stars. It's overcrowded and the pool is tiny for the number of guests, so it's almost impossible to enjoy it comfortably.
The food leaves a lot to be desired: there's little variety, it's very repetitive, and there's an abundance of fried food. After several days, it gets really monotonous.
The room urgently needs refurbishing. The mattress and pillows are very uncomfortable, and the bathroom is quite dated and also in need of renovation. They should also get rid of the shower curtains and replace them with a more hygienic and modern solution.
Overall, I expected much more from a hotel of this range. I don't think the number of stars is justified by the quality on offer.
Hotel al que, en mi opinión, le sobran estrellas. Está demasiado masificado y la piscina es enana para la cantidad de huéspedes que tiene, por lo que resulta prácticamente imposible disfrutarla con comodidad.
La comida deja bastante que desear: hay poca variedad, es muy repetitiva y abundan los fritos. Después de varios días se hace realmente monótona.
La habitación necesita una reforma urgente. El colchón y las almohadas son muy incómodos y el baño está bastante anticuado y también necesita renovarse. Además, deberían quitar las cortinas de la bañera y sustituirlas por una solución más higiénica y moderna.
En general, esperaba bastante más de un hotel con esta categoría. La relación entre las estrellas que tiene y la calidad que ofrece no me parece adecuada.

Disappointing
Destacaría la cercanía a la playa y la tranquilidad del entorno pero sobre todo la comida del hotel y la amabilidad del personal.
It would be good to have the option of all-inclusive because there are hardly any places around the hotel to have a drink.
Sería bueno poder tener la opción de todo incluido porque alrededor del hotel no hay apenas sitios donde tomar algo.

La comida del buffet bien cocinada , no muy grande pero muy buena , el hotel está un paso entre antiguio y muchas mejoras modernas .Tuvimos dos incidencias y las solucionaron en menos de una hora
The rooms could do with a refresh, especially the mattresses and the fold-out beds which were very poor, although they did put another mattress on top to improve it. The price for hotel car park should be more reasonable.
Las habitaciones se podrían dar una vuelta y sobre todo los colchones y por supuesto las camas auxiliares muy malas aunque nos pusieron otro colchón encima para mejorarlo. El precio del parking para el hotel debería ser más ajustado

La verdad que superó todas nuestras expectativas después de leer alguna reseña negativa, el hotel en general esta fenomenal, buen servicio, la comida muy bien, llevamos pensión completa, las instalaciones de 10 muy cuidadas, la terraza ático Quinto Cielo espectacular unas vistas increibles viendo la puesta de sol. Hay una enorme piscina cerrada que según he podido averiguar es por asuntos legales, una pena, la animación para los peques de 10, un equipo fabuloso mis felicitaciones, las actuaciones nocturnas amenas y agradables y ya por último la habitación aunque no estan reformadas como resto del hotel, esta todo limpio y camas cómodas. Accesos directos a playas Doñana. Muy buena calidad precio en general. Repetiremos.

Aunque el hotel no está en primera linea de playa, tiene un acceso de un camino de madera que sale del hotel. Fuimos de Pensión Completa, es de tipo Buffet, no está del todo mal (he estado en sitios peores), pero eché en falta opciones de pescado.

Lo que mas me ha gustado ha sido la comida
I didn’t like that they only have one pool where you can’t even move because of the number of people, and that two pools are closed. I didn’t like the condition of the hotel; the rooms need a major refurbishment — it feels like being in the 1980s. The lifeguard at the small pool is positioned behind barriers with no visibility of the children. Honestly, for what we paid, the hotel leaves a lot to be desired.
No me ha gustado que tengan solo una piscina en la que no puedes ni moverte por la gente que hay y que tengan dos piscinas cerradas, no me ha gustado el estado del hotel, las habitaciones necesitan una gran remorma, parece que estas en los años 80, el socorrista de la mini piscina está detrás de unas vayas sin visibilidad alguna para los niños, la verdad que para lo que nos ha costado el hotel deja mucho que desear
