just wondered if anyone can tell us whats in the rooms, eg mini bar and is it free or do you have to pay for what you drink? Maybe its a sign of getting old but i like my own cuppa in the morning and was wondering if it is worth taking a kettle or can you hire them? also do they have safes in the room or in reception? also how far is it to the beach and how long would it take us to walk there? Think thats all for now.Only 6 weeks to go

Thanks

Tracy :D

After just reading some reviews, you have to take a kettle for your cuppa in the mornings. The safety deposit boxes are in the rooms, although it does say that there are some on the front desk aswell which is 24 hours. There is laundry service and currency exchange. They provide beach towels for using both at the beach and pool areas but you have to put down a smalll deposit and change them every 2 days.The hotel is situated just off the main road, with restaurants, bars, cafes and shops immediately outside the complex. The beach is only 300m away, which provides you with your drinks and if need be you can order a picnic to take with you for your lunch from the hotel the day before. The main resort centre is about 1km away. The reviews I have just read, most of which have been for this year from Feb to May, have all been 10/10 and 9/10., saying hotel rooms basic but clean, pool areas and gardens spotlessly clean, food 4**** and excellent, entertainment both in the day and night excellent. Most have also said would definately go back and some have already booked up to go back in June because they have enjoyed it so much, saying its one of the best holidays they have ever had. :D
