Mar 20, 2025An amazing holiday
A wondeful hotel, very friendly staff all very welcoming. Room was very spacious and the bathroom was very nice. The entertainment during the day was very fun, luis and angel were very fun during the activities and made it very funny. We opted to have a massage which was amazing however it came with an hour at the hotel spa with hydrotherapy of cold plunge and things like that which were all under mainteanace and therefore were unusuable. We spent an hour in the spa simply waiting for our massage which was quite boring.as well as this the food wasn’t the best, some nights was very nice other the rice was undercooked, veg undercooked and not much options. But overall it was a lovely holiday and we would possibly return
