Grundsätzlich gut aber all inklusive ist beschiß

Das all inklusive Paket ist ein bischen bischiss. Es ist zwar normal dass man nur einen Teil der getränke (vor allem alkoholische) im all inklusive drinnen hat aber die all inklusive gäste bekommen einen anderen Ouzo als die, die dafür zahlen. Das gleiche gilt für Softdrinks. All inklusive bekommen lokale nicht schmeckende Softdrinks. Die anderen bekommen markenkola.

Hôtel sympa

Notre séjour s'est bien passé. La chambre était convenable, propre avec belle douche spacieuse. Côté cuisine rien à redire, diversifiée et très bonne. Seul bémol l'accueil à la réception par certaines personnes pas agréable du tout. Le sourire est en option.

Is geen 4 ster hotel maar 3

De ontvangst was goed, de hotel is niet zo groot zoals je denkt, de kamer was goed en net genoeg voor 3 personen. De balkon in de kamer is zeker een toegevoegd waard dat geeft een sfeer. De koelkast was oud en jammer geen koffie apparaat. De buffet was super maar de koffie was niet lekker. Personeel heel aardig wij komen zeker terug.

Hotel à éviter en début de saison...

Hotel peu mieux faire. nous sommes allées du 26/04 au 03/05. autant dire avant que la saison commence. Autant nous voulions du calme, autant les prestations proposées ne sont pas à la hauteur de celles vantées. jacuzzi/sauna : non disponible. Market : fermé Bar au bord de la piscine: fermé. La demi pension (petit dej + diner) ne comprend pas les boissons, j'entends aucune boisson, ni eau , ni soft....pour le diner!! Chaque diner il faut donc rajouter les boissons. A savoir, les belles photos avec la plage privée, n'appartient pas à l'hôtel: il faut payer les transats. Petit déjeuner un peut tot pour la fin des horaires: 09h30.

Immer wieder!

Wir waren schon zum 2. Mal hier, und es hat uns wieder sehr gut gefallen. Wir kommen sicher wieder. Natürlich sind die Zimmer mittlerweile ein bißchen abgewohnt, es ist ja auch kein neues Hotel mehr. Das Preisleistungsverhältnis paßt. Schön ist auch ,dass wir , wie vor 3 Jahren vom selben Personal empfangen, und vom Service im Essbereich versorgt wurden. Das Personal ist hier immer freundlich und gutgelaunt! Das Essen ist gut, vielleicht sollte es a bisserl mehr gewürzt sein, aber das ist halt Geschmackssache. Das Zimmer wurden immer sehr ordentlich und sauber gepflegt vom Reinigungspersonal. Das Personal an der Rezeption war immer sehr hilfsbereit. ( Flug-check in, Taxi ....)

Buona ( non ottima) sistemazione per chi vuole girare l'isola non per rimanere tutto il tempo in hotel,perche' la spiaggia di fronte e' piccola e a pagamento,mentre in piscina è poca ombra e le sdraia vengono occupate dalla mattina presto con borse e tovaglie....x tutto il giorno.Personale al bar poco gentile...poca frutta fresca a collazione.Non e' un 4 stelle....ma un 3 stelle...

Ok for the 3-4 Stars

We had 2 rooms - the sea view was fine, the garden room was overlooking someones back yard. The hotel is on the public beach. Good local shops otherwise not close to any larger areas. The staff in the restaurant were fine and the food was ok. The reception staff need a personality. The pools were clean - the pool towels had holes in them but we could not be bothered to address it to reception staff as they would rather avoid interacting with clients. On check out they did not even ask how our stay was and hope to see us soon one day. The rooms are basic - its stated as 4 star but its 3 star IMO. We had issues with the air con - it took 5 minutes to get going and the filters were packed with dust - the on site repair man came and made us feel indadequate at notunderstanding air con equipment but we did make him clean the clogged up filters (albeit he did it in our shower). They only give 1 room key with a magnet to attach to the sensor which starts the room up- pain in the neck as if one of us wanted to go out we had to be let in or wake up our family. It achieved what we needed to achieve, no one fell ill, the kids loved the pool, basic kids entertainment. We arranged the holiday 5 days prior so we paid premium for a basic hotel - will book more in advance next time.
