Résumé des avis

Guests appreciate the friendliness and professionalism of the staff, as well as the overall cleanliness of the hotel, rooms, and facilities. The large swimming pool is considered beautiful and well-maintained. Furthermore, the quality of the food at the buffet and à la carte restaurants is frequently praised, with the resort described as attractive, compact, and well-maintained, making it easy to get around, and the beach pleasant for walking. However, it is sometimes noted that the beach can have seaweed, less than inviting water, or debris.

Don't trust appearances.
Ne pas se fier aux apparences

We went to this all-inclusive resort expecting a "4-star" hotel, but once we arrived, we quickly realized it was more like a 2 or 3-star. The hotel was very well located on the beach, just below a mountain. The beach was beautiful, the water warm, and there were plenty of waves, which we appreciated. There were also few vendors on the beach (perhaps because it was the off-season). The scenery was magnificent. However, the building itself left much to be desired. The rooms are old, the lobby is old, the roofs of the buffet and sports bar leaked when it rained, and the air conditioning in the room stopped working when it rained. Furthermore, it leaked even when it was running. It was impossible to get a comfortable temperature in the shower; it was either scalding hot or freezing cold. The water didn't drain properly in the shower or the sink. As for the staff… when we arrived, we felt like we were intruding, even though we were practically the only guests. The staff wasn't welcoming at all. We tipped them, but they didn't smile, barely even a thank you. Furthermore, almost no activities were organized or offered. But for us, this wasn't an issue, since we were only there to enjoy the beach and the pool. The pool is open from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM. The buffet was decent. The à la carte restaurants were very disappointing; the only one worth trying was the Brazilian one. All in all, we had a nice week, as we were able to enjoy the beach and the sun. However, this will be our last stay at this hotel.

Nous avons été dans ce tout inclus en s’attendant à un hotel “4 étoiles”, pourtant une fois arrivés, nous nous sommes vite aperçus qu’il s’agissait plutôt d’une hôtel 2/3 étoiles. L’hôtel était très bien situé sur le bord de la plage juste en dessous d’une montagne. La plage était très belle, l’eau chaude et avec beaucoup de vagues ce que nous avons apprécié. Ainsi que peut de vendeurs sur la plage (peut-être du au fait que c’était la saison morte). Le paysage était magnifique. Par contre, le bâtiment en tant que tel laisse à désirer. Les chambres sont vieilles, le hall d’entrée est vieux, les toits du buffet et bar sportif coulaient lorsqu’il pleuvait, l’aire climatisée dans la chambre cessait de fonctionner lorsqu’il pleuvait. De plus, celle-ci coulait lorsqu’elle était en marche. Il était impossible d’avoir une température adéquate dans la douche, soit elle était bouillante et bien glacée. L’eau ne drainait pas dans la douche ainsi que dans le lavabo.
Pour ce qui est du personnel… lorsque nous sommes arrivés nous avons senti que nous dérangions, malgré que nous étions les seuls clients ou presque. Le personnel n’était pas accueillant du tout. On leur donnait du pourboire et aucun sourire, à peine un merci.
De plus, aucune activité ou presque était organisée ou offerte. Mais pour nous ce n’était pas un enjeux, puisque nous venions seulement profiter de la plage et de la piscine. À savoir que la piscine ouvre à 10h et ferme à 19h.
Le buffet était correct. Les restaurants à la cartes étaient très décevants, le seul qui valait la peine était celui brésilien.
Sommes toutes nous avons passé une belle semaine puisque nous avons pu profité de la plage et du soleil. Cependant, ce sera notre dernière expérience dans cette hôtel.

Bad experience
Mauvaise expérience

The beach was very windy, no chance to relax; the resort was packed with locals, no chance to relax either; the pool was dirty, the food was excellent, and the entertainment was in Spanish, geared towards locals. Definitely my first and last experience.

Plage où vente beaucoup aucune chance de relaxer, resort rempli par les locaux aucune chance de relaxer, piscine salle, nourriture excellente, animation pour les locaux en Espagnol. Sûrement ma première et dernière expérience
