    Be careful of the rip offs

    After nearly 20 hours travelling we arrived at the hotel. Beautiful to look at. The queues in reception were crazy. We were tired hungry and thirsty yet while waiting for our room we were not offered drinks but 2 guys approached us. They wore white polo shirts saying Circle on them. They introduced themselves as hotel staff and told us they were concierge who will look after us during our stay. One. Named Paul. Told us meet him there at 9am for rep meeting. Eventually we got a room and after 3 attempts up and down to reception the key worked and we were able to gain access. We were offered an upgrade to The Level for £500. You get more access to private bars and restraunts and more named drinks ect. We werent bothered. Our room was big. Spa bath. Seperate bedroom. Lovely. (Apparently this was a Levwl room) Next day we went to the buffet restraunt for breakfast. Food was nice and plentiful. We arent fussy eaters and can always make do with an omelette or something but it was lovely. We went to reception to ask about the upgrade as the pool opposite our room was just for The Level customers. My husband has mobility issues so made sense if we could barter the price down......we did. My hubby offered him £200 and he accepted. Paid on credit card. Sorted. While we waited for Paul to take us to the rep meeting. Eventually Paul came and took us to a lovely conference room air con. Guitarist playing men in suits all greeting us. It turns out it was a time share sales pitch. Thus holiday was booked to relax as Iv just lost my father. My Dad used to play guitar and this was a massive trigger for me I fled the room in tears. Since when we saw the conceirge they totally blanked us. Never appologised or asked if we were ok. Disgusting behaviour by these staff. I felt like you didnt know who to trust around that hotel. The staff in beige are lovely the ones in white are sales people. We asked staff to arrange a taxi for us to go to the super market. They sent a taxi who took us to a souvenier shop. They also became dismissive when we didnt buy anything. The prices of said souveniers were extorsionate. Obviously the hotel gets commission. So that cost us $5 for taxi driver tip to go somewhere we didnt want to. They just want to sell you something all the time. Round the pool the difference in price people had paid for upgrade to The Level ranged from us £200 to £650 for couples. So be careful and barter. Its not wven a back hander because we all paid on credit cards. Plus its not all its cracked up to be. The pool was full of everyone not just The Level so was the restraunt so what a con anyhow. The area is beautiful the weather fantastic and most of the peoope lovely. But that hotel is just a trap once you have paid the lot of money to get to this hotel they still want more and will kepp trying to get it. Shame on you Melia hotels it spoils your holiday we all have a cost of living crisis and holidays are hard to come by. I wont ever return to one of their hotels again .

    Stay home

    this is a big resort, very well maintained. Only has 1 place for breakfast and evening buffet. Entertainment is almost non existence during the day. Nightly shows are in the lobby bar area, good luck trying to find a seat and get a drink. Restaurants are just bland just like the buffets are. The Italian was pretty good.

    what a BEAUTIFUL ISLAND and resort

    Everything was wonderful! The resort is beautiful, the people are so friendly, its filled with lots of daytime and night time activities for adults and children! The only complaint we have is the Casino was open all day, but the cage to cash in your winnings did not open until 7pm-7am so if you play and win during the day you would have to wait until 7pm to cash in your ticket, this was the only inconvenience we had. But overall I definitely would reccomend, and we will be visiting again!
