My room included a balcony with furniture facing the sea. The buffet breakfast was AMAZING!!! Luis made some lovely cocktails at the bar.
There was NO outdoor pool or outdoor lounge area for sunbathing. The only option for sunbathing was the beach. There was NO outdoor beach shower, so sand ended up back in my room. Beach towels required a cash deposit.

Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

The staff seemed overwhelmed, the reception staff were unhelpful during check-in. They did not. The shower had moldy seals, and the shower door didn't close properly. The communication was a real challenge. Most staff spoke very little English.
