We stayed at the hotel in July. We arrived at the hotel at 10 am and checked in immediately. The hotel and grounds are clean and well maintained.
The room has everything you need. The bed and towels are decent, but cosmetics are not placed in the bathroom: there is only soap suds and shower gel in wall-mounted dispensers. Use of a safe, refrigerator, WiFi for a fee. The first minus of the hotel is very poor sound insulation in the rooms from the corridor - it seems that you are in the corridor, not in the room. We had a room with a view of the bar and the neighboring wing of our own hotel - a side view of the sea.
Pool towels are issued with a refundable deposit (I think 10 euros) and a non-refundable cost of 5 euros per towel.
The hotel restaurant is excellent. Food for every taste: vegetables and fruits in abundance, meat of various kinds, fish, seafood. Everything is fresh. With the HB meal plan, drinks at dinner for a fee (any), at breakfast - tea / coffee, champagne? is free.

The second minus of the hotel is smokers, from whom you can hide only in the room and the indoor restaurant. Near the pool, in the bar, in the open area where the evening animation takes place, smoking is allowed everywhere. At the same time, vacationers are not at all embarrassed by the presence of non-smokers and children nearby (of whom, in my opinion, there were a minority).
I want to note the excellent work of the hotel's animation team, who devoted a lot of time to vacationers of all ages. I remember the wonderful variety of animation activities, the friendliness of the animation team. Bravo!
Also very friendly staff in the restaurant - both cooks and waiters, waiters in the bar. It was very pleasant to communicate with everyone.
However, the evening imported animation leaves much to be desired.
Although this does not apply to the hotel, but a few words about the beach. The beach is wide, relatively clean, there is a shower, BUT with very uncomfortable sand containing small inclusions of stones, i. e. the sand was some kind of prickly, it was painful to walk on it.
