multiple swimming poolsoutdoor swimming poolsdirect beach accesssecurity presencecoca availabilitywaiter behaviorrude waiterall inclusive package
The hotel boasts multiple outdoor swimming pools. It includes a large indoor swimming pool too. I saw tennis courts and gyms on the premises. Direct beach access is a great amenity, I noticed security presence. A beach bar and restaurant are available for use.
I noticed that sometimes there were problems with coca availability. It seems they only served the light version. A waiter even yelled at my wife. This is unacceptable in my opinion.

The receptionists offered us a warm welcome (i appreciate their kindness). My room had an excellent sea view. The hotel and my room were both very clean.
The bar staff were not very friendly, in my opinion. All drinks, except water, were served in small quantities. I found that quite awkward. There was no water available at the gym. (i had to bring my own)

great staffsea viewfriendly personnelvegan options
the staff are great. feradous and rafita helped get late checkout and an upgrade to a sea view room. the pool area is amazing and the beach even more so. the staff at the beach bar, lifeguard, and security personnel are all cute and friendly (they really help you get your sunbed ready each day!).
the only thing i would improve is to add more vegan options to the open buffet. i am vegetarian so it would be good to have more variety for me.
