Nothing it was very good overall
9.0 / 10.0
The property is located right at the middle of main places like restaurants, centrum and activities. The property has a back gate with which you can access the beach directly. The roof top bar is a must visit and unique in this property. The breakfast was nice and the timings were really really comfortable for late day beginners.

Location 10/10 and sea views amazing. Nice fridge in room to keep water cold and when we got back to room on first evening a beautiful box of cakes, a bottle of fizz and a bottle of water had been left for us. Roof top bar amazing for cocktails
The only negative is the rainfall shower head had no power. Took ages to wash out shampoo or even wash body.

Plenty of choice at breakfast. The location is great, next to the beach and 10 minutes stroll to the marina. Great views from the rooftop bar. The fridge in the bedroom was useful and we hired a kettle. The bedroom air con was efficient.
The allocated room this time was dated compared to a previous stay.

Rooftop bar was superb.Good quality breakfast and excellent staff.Nice poolside bar as well.
Could have done with tea and coffee making facilities in the rooms.
The lifts can be excessively busy at peak periods around meal times.

Didn’t like that all beds were covered in towels before we got up
And some had no one on them until evening .
Don’t understand why that is allowed . Had to sit on grass in soaring heat white beds were not being used but reserved by a towel .

The staff were all so welcoming, friendly and very professional. They couldn't have been more attentive. It was obvious that they work as a team and like eachother too! Made for a very relaxed and pleasant stay. The pool area is lovely and very relaxed, we enjoyed great lunches from the pool bar. The food was so fresh and beautifully presented. The entertainment by the pool for children and adults alike was so well done. The Funtastic team got the balance just right. Great music, not intrusive and they created a great atmosphere. Even the lifeguard got involved! Again another great team that went above and beyond to make all the guest's holiday very special.

Location, room view, pool, breakfast
It was a gift for my father's birthday and the hotel charged him instead of charging the credit card in the reservation. Also they did not tell them about the complementary gift for the upgrade (water, cava and donuts) and they were not aware these were free.

The pricing on booking.com was a mess we had three rooms on the same floor next to each other and the prices we paid for each were vastly different to each other

We had a wonderful stay! The view from the balcony was absolutely beautiful, and being right on the beachfront was perfect. There were plenty of great restaurants and shops nearby, all within walking distance. The room was very clean and serviced daily. We didn’t have breakfast at the hotel because there were so many charming cafés just a short walk away. The staff were all lovely and made us feel very welcome. Highly recommended!

Location was excellent- staff very nice - room was nice - cleaned ever day
Pool was not heated- towels a problem people putting towels out at 8am and not using sun beds- no lick on toilets door just inside the door of pool area- bath very deep and could be dangerous as bathrooms very small- need more fresh fruit rather than tinned fruit at breakfast

Location central near all bars and beach, clean rooms, comfy bed, on beach front
Room very noisy, towels not changed had to request clean towels, bathroom very small one person at a time, pool bar didn't serve food until 1pm which doesn't suit people who did not opt for breakfast, you had to hire a kettle at a cost where neighboring hotels it is part of room. For price it wasn't up to what was expected, video of room looks big but not in reality, we stayed in a double room.
10.0 / 10.0
The close location of the rooms to the restaurant, the pool and the pool bar seemed like the hotel is a nice compact village. The rooftop bar is just exceptional
