Balanced
Review:
Like
others,
we
read
the
horrendous
reviews
and
almost
cancelled,
on
reflection
we
are
glad
we
didn’t
cancel
but
it
is
far
from
perfect.
The
most
important
questions
are
Did
we
have
a
good
time?
YES.
Did
we
feel
we
got
value
for
money?
YES.
The
hotel
is
close
to
the
airport
so
only
a
short
transfer
which
was
good.
What
you
notice
as
you
leave
reception
is
that
it
is
scruffy
in
places
and
does
need
maintenance
throughout.
We
were
happy
with
the
room,
it
was
a
decent
size
and
generally
clean
(if
you
didn’t
look
too
closely).
The
maintenance
issues
carried
on
into
the
rooms
but
nothing
major,
toilet
seat
slipped
all
over
the
place,
shower
squirted
water
all
over
the
bathroom
and
the
patio
door
was
amazingly
difficult
to
open!
We
couldn’t
work
the
air
con
out,
called
reception
and
the
same
friendly
guy
was
there
in
minutes
to
show
us
which
was
brilliant.
The
pools
are
fantastic,
we
had
young
children
and
it
worked
for
all
of
us.
We
always
found
beds
without
going
down
early,
I’m
sure
if
you
want
the
prime
spots
you
have
to
get
there
early
but
generally
it
was
fine.
3
Bars
all
around
the
pool
and
all
the
staff
we
friendly
and
helpful.
The
water
park
is
brilliant,
kids
loved
it
(so
did
the
adults),
nice
pool
there
too
to
sit
by
and
never
seemed
that
busy.
A
bit
annoying
that
you
couldn’t
use
all
inclusive
there
but
we
sneaked
beers
over
without
too
much
trouble
and
liked
going
there
in
the
morning,
back
to
the
hotel
for
lunch
and
then
the
main
pool
with
the
bars
for
an
afternoon
drink.
The
lifeguards
were
brilliant,
very
vigilant,
we
actually
saw
one
of
them
jump
in
an
pull
a
child
out
who
was
struggling
and
they
were
cool,
calm
and
professional.
The
food
was
okay/good.
I’m
not
fussy
so
I
always
found
something
nice
but
it
was
sometimes
a
little
confusing
looking
at
the
selection
to
try
and
make
a
meal
out
of
it.
The
kids
selection
was
very
basic,
nuggets,
chips,
pasta
&
sauce,
same
every
day.
Great
if
that’s
all
your
kids
want
but
not
much
selection.
Breakfast
was
always
good.
The
3
restaurants
are
worth
doing.
The
Greek
is
a
set
menu,
it
was
A
LOT
of
food
and
not
great
choice
of
mains
or
desserts
for
the
kids,
but
nice.
The
Mexican
&
Italian
is
a
bit
of
a
con,
it’s
not
actually
2
restaurants,
just
2
sides
of
the
same
area
but
an
amazing
space,
lovely
roof
top
views
and
a
nice
place
to
be.
Food
was
good,
again,
limited
selection
for
the
kids
but
nice.
YOU
MUST
book
these
on
arrival
as
otherwise
you
won’t
get
in
or
at
a
time
you
want.
Drinks
were
fine,
beer
was
cold
and
fizzy,
spirits
were
local
but
all
tasted
fine.
The
cocktails
were
quite
basic,
more
spirit
and
mixers
than
cocktails
(no
fruit,
garnish
or
umbrellas)
but
they
were
fine,
as
was
the
wine.
The
evening
entertainment
was
disappointing.
On
the
terrace
(which
is
a
beautiful
spot)
there
was
usually
a
singer
or
musician,
but
it
was
more
“pub
singer”
background
music
than
entertainment.
The
kids
entertainment
was
probably
the
low
point.
The
room
is
horrible,
it’s
like
a
conference
room
with
no
windows,
everything
was
sticky
and
a
bit
damp,
the
bar
was
a
camping
table
with
a
cloth
on
it
so
everything
was
flat
and
warm
(no
ice
down
there)
so
not
a
place
you
want
to
spend
your
evening.
It
shouldn’t
seem
difficult
to
deliver
Bingo,
you
must
be
able
to
get
everything
you
need
on
Amazon?
Not
in
the
conference
centre,
what
looked
like
one
of
the
maintenance
guys
stepped
on
to
the
stage
with
a
Tupperware
box
under
his
arm…………..
He
then
proceeded
to
sit
at
what
looked
like
an
old
school
desk
and
rattle
the
box
above
his
head
whilst
chanting
“shaky
shaky
shaky”
and
shout
out
the
numbers.
The
reality
is
that
it
is
not
5
star,
it
is
4
at
best.
Maybe
there
is
still
a
hangover
from
COVID
and
there
is
a
maintenance
plan
in
place???
But,
when
we
booked
we
paid
4
star
money,
we
had
4
star
expectations
and
we
had
a
4
star
experience.
It
is
a
beautiful
spot
and
if
you
are
booked
in
I
think
you
will
have
a
great
time.
If
you
haven’t
booked
yet,
and
you
want
5
star
I
suggest
you
look
elsewhere.
