This hotel is fabulous, great value for money and couldn’t do enough to accommodate you and ensure your stay is enjoyable. Location is excellent. The food is the best we’ve had on an all inclusive,no complaints from the kids either. Hotel is spotless. Honestly don’t know how people write negative reviews about this place. Can’t wait to return. Thank you.

A good destination for families with young kids. Our room was satisfactory for three adults, house keeping attended daily with differing levels of cleaning and tidying. Plenty to do on site with a choice of pools and water slides, gym, sports court, ping pong, games arcade and kids club. Two nice beaches are a ten minute walk away. Food was excellent, great selection of meats, veg, salad and desert. The burgers and cheese and ham toasties in the snack bar are superb. Armacao is a 30 minute walk or 6 Euro in a taxi away, it has the best beach with a promenade with tourist shops and cafes. Well worth a visit. Local taxis are much cheaper than the ones advertised in reception, seven of us went to Zoomarine for 15 Euro each way, the hotel advertises 30 Euro each way. We used 00351 963 056 040 really friendly and professional taxi. Unfortunately i didn't find the staff very helpful, local information was hard to find and hotel information was by a QR code. Me being of the older generation like to switch my phone off when on holiday. The manager with the Handlebar Moustache was just rude and arrogant. The mini disco was to loud and shouty, don't expect to see much on stage because two huge pillars block most peoples views. Overall a good holiday was had by all.

Spent a long time searching and reading reviews and was really impressed by all the recent reviews so chose this one! Very clean, food great, staff excellent, 2 great pool areas and stunning beaches only few minutes walk. Myself and my daughter had a short 4 night break all inclusive. Drinks good, branded alcohol not cheap stuff. Entertainment and activities if you want it.

We travelled as a family of 5, we didn’t try any of the organised activities, kids clubs or watch any entertainment so can’t comment on any of this.
The hotel is around 40 mins from the airport by taxi. We travelled with Jet2 but booked a private transfer as I had read the reviews commenting on the coach being lengthy.
Check in was swift, there is a QR code on the desk for WiFi and hotel information, we took a pic on our phone as it was handy to have to check opening times ect.
We had 2 rooms which were adjoining, they overlooked the car park entrance so it was sometimes a bit noisy. The positive was watching the goats and chickens on the field opposite.
The rooms were spotless, in fact everywhere in the hotel is incredibly clean. The beds were comfy, WiFi strong and the TV had a good selection.
The main buffet was good, lots of choice during our 7 night stay we had one night where we didn’t like a lot of the options but this was a personal choice thing. The snack bar is great if you are an early riser although the coffee isn’t as nice as the main restaurant.
We found every member of staff to be helpful and friendly.
We used the pools but we really enjoyed the beach, the beach is a short walk and is really beautiful.
Overall we found the hotel excellent value for money, we had a superb trip and would consider returning in the future.

Hotel- response to requests are very quick, had broken hair dryer, reported it at 6pm, fixed it at 9:30pm. had problem with the cistern, the room cleaners reported it and fixed within an hour. Considering it was a busy hotel, the response is pretty quick. Thanks a lot. The hotel and its surroundings are very clean. Beds are comfy. Food- buffet style and there is always something new dish every day, but of course for the kids, pizza & pasta is perfectly fine for them. Maybe the chips should be a bit warmer please? The staffs looked tired though but friendly. Activities - there is always activities for children regardless of age. My son is 11 years old and staffs will ask if he wants to play football/basketball, or table tennis & other group activities for their age group. Bar- enjoyed the cocktails, drinks, hot and cold. Snack bar- wow its 24/7 but will close when it is breakfast, lunch or dinner. However, it will be good to have a snack bar open near the water theme park. We will recommend it and will be back there again.
