Fantastic stay from start to finish! A beautiful hotel in a great location - a 15-20 minute walk to the Yumbo centre (full of great bars and shops) or beach (both a 5 minute drive for less than €4). We paid for the all inclusive plus bands at time of booking package - the fresh cocktails alone were worth it! Worked out about £10 a day each which we would have spent of drinks anyway. If you don’t get these bands the cocktails come from a dispenser and are incredibly sweet! All staff were helpful and friendly, but not overbearing. It’s a big hotel with many to cater for but they are there when you need them. Food was great! Not sure what all the moaning is about. We stayed a week and were able to have something different everyday but perhaps because we didn’t have a bit of everything everyday! Breakfast provided waffles, pancakes, cereals, traditional fry-up, pastries, fresh fruits, cheese and meats, yoghurts etc. Lunches and dinners had a range of salads, breads, cheeses, pasta, fish, meats, soup, curry, potato’s, vegetables, rices etc. There were also two themed evenings - Mexican (with tacos and a cheese nacho fountain!) and Asian (with curries, sushi, rice dishes etc). Food was lovely and an absolute highlight for us! Rooms, public areas and pools all beautifully clean. Cleaning staff worked hard and were very friendly too. Most importantly: The animation team were AMAZING! Kendra, Selina and Alfredo are a credit to the hotel and work hard day and night to provide entertainment and fun for all who want to participate (there’s no pressure!) We loved taking part in the archery, darts, riffle shooting etc and met lovely other couples at these activities who we also explored the karaoke and drag bars with in the Yumbo. Yes the lifts are a bit annoying but we were on vacation and weren’t in a rush to get anywhere - a little wait didn’t ruin our holiday! Additionally, people do reserve subbed from early as happens everywhere. If you can’t beat em, join em! All in all a fantastic break for us and would definitely return in the future!
