Résumé des avis

The overall cleanliness of the property and the rooms is highly praised, as is the friendliness and excellent service of the staff. The food, particularly at the buffet, is considered excellent and varied. Furthermore, the beautiful, clean swimming pools offer activities, all under a warm and sunny climate, with convenient proximity to the airport. However, the beach is sometimes criticized for its condition, with comments regarding the sand, the water, and the occasional presence of marine life, making it less suitable for swimming.

Excellent value for money
Excellent rapport qualité/prix

We loved our trip. The staff are friendly and welcoming. We had a great laugh with several of them! Johnny at the bar is fantastic! He even knows when to refill the water during a busy evening, haha! I would have preferred a quieter pool. The entertainment is very lively. The resort is well laid out. No long walks required.

Nous avons adoré notre voyage. Les employés sont souriants et accueillants. Nous avons rit avec plusieurs! Johnny au bar est parfait! Il sait même quand service de l’eau au courant d’une soirée hihihi
J’aurais aimé une piscine plus calme. L’animation est très forte.
Le site est bien fait. Pas de grands déplacements à faire.
