Das Hotel verfügt über 2 Stockwerke, im oberen Stockwerk befinden sich die Superior & Deluxe Zimmer sowie Suiten. Im Preis stets enthalten sind pro Zimmer immer 2 Liegen und 1 Sonnenschirm am Strandabschnitt Arcobaleno, wo man auch frühstücken kann, Mittag & Abendessen kann man dort ebenso einnehmen. Hotel verfügt über einen Pool, Liegen & Badehandtücher sind kostenlos (können auch an den Strand mitgenommen werden). Personal ist - je nachdem, wen man antrifft - sehr hilfsbereit, Bar Personal jedoch lässt einen gerne warten, drum konnten wir nie etwas konsumieren und sind nach 15 Minuten gegangen. Das Restaurant hat zwar eine schöne Lage im Innenhof mit Springbrunnen, aber die Preise sind ziemlich überhöht, die Portionen klein, da ist man in den Lokalen vor dem Hotel am Strand bzw. an der Strasse besser aufgehoben (Il Sole oder das Arcobaleno). Sehr zuvorkommen sind die hoteleigenen Taxifahrer - man kann auch Termine ausmachen und man wird überall hingebracht. Lage des Hotels ist echt gut, und das PreisLeitungs-Verhältnis stimmt, aber in den Zimmern müsste einiges renoviert werden wobei in den Standardzimmern fast überall - so weit wir es bemerkt haben - neue bodentiefe, barrierefreie Duschen eingebaut wurden. Leider gibt es in den Badezimmern gar keine Abstellfläche, zu zweit ist es somit etwas schwierig Toilettutensilien zu platzieren.

Mange mennesker med få solsenge ved poolen. Lidt kaotisk og ingen hjælp fra personalet. Vi skulle bruge en taxa til byen som reception havde booket til os - de glemte bare at fortælle os, at den var aflyst så vi stod og ventede forgæves på den og kom derfor 30 minutter for sent til vores restaurant aftale. Endvidere oplyste receptionen ved tjek in at vi havde morgenmad med i prisen, men da vi tjekkede ud skulle vi betale for morgenmaden - følte os derfor snydt. Vi kan ikke anbefale dette hotel.

This hotel may have been nice at some point but needs serious updates. The smoke detector was removed with wires hanging from ceiling, you could not control your room temperature without talking to the front desk (but this was not disclosed at checking ) so we were extremely hot for several hours. We would have called them but the phone did not work. The beds are rock hard. The staff were very nice and the restaurant was excellent but a bit expensive. I would not recommend this hotel.

Unfortunately our room was around 78°F and in order for your AC to turn on, you have to call the front desk. My husband and I called three times to ask them to make the room colder and it never got colder. It was cooler outside than it was in our room. It was just really uncomfortable.

We arrived at 1pm and were told our room would be available at 2pm. Then more guests arrived and they too were told their rooms would be available at 2pm. I mean, you can't have 3 rooms all done at the same time so if you don't want folks checking in before 2pm, just say so. We requested help with our luggage as we didn't want to drag our bags from the parking lot to the reception (a few mins walk on very bumpy, cobbled grounds), and had to wait a good 15mins for the "bellboy" to show up, after asking reception a few times for an update. Apparently, their luggage trolley was in use so the bellboy just dragged our luggage anyway. Turns out, their staff was using the one luggage trolley this big resort had! We returned at 5pm to check in, and while our room was ready, no one bothered to move our luggage into the room. We picked them up ourselves and dragged them through the resort and up to the second floor. I should note we had to go into the backroom to find our own luggage too since the staff was super helpful [insert sarcasm]! The room was waaay below average. It looked like something from a cheap saudi prince mansion from the 90s, only the walls were bare, the furniture cheap and the bathroom... oh gawd the smell of bleach was horrible! It was old, with grey stains on the tiled floors and I used that shower out of desperation only! The whole resort screams wannabe luxury in the lobby and reception and stops there. Do not recommend!

On pictures it all looks very cute and next to the beach. Luxury? Maybe 30 years ago..when it was last updated. The whole place is very dated, aircon didn’t work and they had to put it on from reception then couldn’t control it in room. Pool was being redecorated. Tried to order room arrive and called reception who cgave me the number.. to the bar.. who gave me The number to the restaurant.. who gave me the number to reception.. who gave me another number .. then they said they would send a bell boy up with menu… then they called 20 min later to tell Me to look on the website… and then they called to chase me Twice.. food arrived and it wasn’t nt bad.. with an extra 15 euro charge to bring to room.. beach is across the road which is why I booked it as well.. a dirty old street and had to walk to this beach club the hotel gave you free sun Bed and towel and parasol… felt like that hasn’t been updated for 30 years either so didn’t bother.. luckily I was only there for 1 night before moving on to Mangia Brucoli for a work summit.. and this Is paradise here.. like being on a set of white lotus! Won’t be coming back that’s for sure.

I booked triple room and I am happy with the size of the room and beds. However, the food in the hotel is not good. It’s also pricy. It took us some time to find the room because the room number is not listed anywhere so we had to ask the person who work in the hotel. There are no restaurants around that area, which disappointed us, when I booked it from Hotel.com, it says 4 mins walking to the beach, I imagined there would be tourists and restaurants around the area.
