we stayed here july aug 09, the rooms are basic, but clean. pool area great, not far from the sea front but watch out for jelly fish!! on the night the front takes on another face where the cafe bars are all lite up and its really nice to sit out having the odd beer or 2!! staff at the Mavina are very helpful, the food is ok. Dear to buy for selfcatering best of going half board, but all in all a great hotel more
