  : We were quite happy with most things but the disabled ramp in reception needed attention and our toilet was dirty on arrival but when we complained they cleaned the toilet and apologised.
  : The difficult disabled access from reception to the dining room

  : Food too repetitive and although perfectly fine in preparation just bland in general lacking spice far too salty and boring to eat sorry but just not what I wanted others no doubt would disagree

  : The hotel was clean and well furnished. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. The buffet restaurant was a good size, with a great choice and variety of foods at each meal, and a good amount of seating (inside and outside). There were lots of sunbeds and seating in the pool and lobby bars. The room was small but adequate, with a nice size good-layout bathroom, and the room was cleaned every day and the mini-bar restocked too. There was evening entertainment, although some acts were much better than others, but the "show" bar-area had lots of seating (with comfy chairs) with table service for drinks. There were some issues on arrivals with our room not being available, but the manager had arranged an alternative so that our stay was not affected too much, and offered us a room-upgrade and late-checkout as compensation. The hotel is also near to the beach (a short walk away), with some shops, bars and cafes, as well as some shops/shopping centres and other bars and restaurants in walking distance (if you wanted a changed of scene)
  : There was no music (even on a low-level) in the lobby bar at night, and when the evening entertainment finished at the "show" area (often by 10.30pm) the background music was switched off at 11pm, if not before. The evening entertainment was not very good on some nights, with 3 nights in a row having a duet-band playing, and they lacked any real enthusiasm and stage-presence (like they did not want to be there!)

  : Excellent senior restaurant staff that took good care of us and especially our kids! Food is exceptionally good to be a buffet. Nice pool and garden.
  : Reception staff not very helpful and quite rough throughout the stay. No activities for children except the pool. The food is in the small restaurant that needs to be booked is much worse quality than the normal buffet so skip it.
