Location
Had a great stayand loads to do.
Entertainment could be better with more shows done by people rather than the hotel reps. You can see they are doing there best at what they can but just need more shows and in the pub downstairs aswell could do with some adult shows.
Location was very good there is a ice cream parlour just out side wich you can get some ice cream and drinks cheaper and better and two steps away
top class!

If someone was to tell me they did not eat well here, I would call them a liar!! There must be at least 7 to 10 choices everynight and they also do show cooking by the resident chefs. A nice touch is the kids buffet. On here are the same food as the adults, but you also get chicken nuggets, fish fingers etc. The staff in the restaurant are lovely. Certain waiters and waitresses go out of their way to have time for the kids. Drinks can be ordered at your table from the staff.
When you arrive at the hotel, you are given a card for each member of the party. This must be produced each time you enter the restaurant. It also acts as a credit card for use in the hotel. A member of the reception staff will validate it for you and you receive 60 Euros credit on it. This can then be used at the bars and snack bars in place of cash. A fantastic idea if you do not wish to carry cash about with you. You then go to reception, clear the balance and you start afresh with another 60 Euros...a great idea.
The location of the hotel is approximately 1KM from the center, but the walk is lovely, or you can catch the bus. The fare is 1 Euro 10 cents each, but this fare will take you all the way to San Antonio, which is approximately 3KM away. There is a beach approximately 60 yards from reception, hiring loungers at 4 Euros each.
Pedalos range from 8 to 14 Euros for an hour. The sea here is crystal clear, but there are rocks in places so be careful. Snorkelling here is great, to depths of about 25 to 30 feet...lovely colurful fish everywhere. Also from this beach, you can catch a small boat to San Antonio (approx. 5 Euros each-we were charged 15 Euros for a family of four). You can also catch the glass bottom boat from here to various destinations. The entertainment was great. The Reps commence pool side fun from 10am and carry on to 1130pm.
The reps themselves were fantastic and were always on the go. The evening entertainment starts at approx. 8pm with the kids mini disco (you will come home singing and dancing the Cartoon Hero's song), bingo from 9pm with line prizes of approx. 60 Euros and full houses for up to 250 Euros (all winnings are paid in bar vouchers!!!). The main entertainment starts at 10pm. I recommend the hypnotist on a Saturday evening. Also do not let the kids miss the Cartoon Hero Evening entertainment!!! All in all a brilliant holiday. I would recommend this place to all.

Pool was very good. 3 areas to the big one, 2 with shallow ends, and one with 2mts depth all round. they are watched over by attendants all day. Lilos, boats etc are not allowed in the deep pool area, and this is strictly enforced which i felt was a good idea. There is also a seperate paddling pool for the little ones.
If you want a good spot around the pool take an alarm clock with you. You will need to be down with your towels by about 8.00am. Despite the hotel telling you otherwise. Dont pick the area by the stage or behind it because when the entertainment starts you will either be deafenend by the stage, or soaked behind it!(you will see what i mean when the splash dance starts)
If you want a game of pool go out of the hotel to the ice cream shop opposite, only 1 EU per game as opposed to 2 EU in the hotel.
Food was very good, dont forget to take your kids Dizzy and Shades bottles into the restaurant at breakfast, you will be able to fill them up with fresh orange juice(dont let em spot you though).
staff are british as well as spanish. All speak very good english. The credit card arrangement was a very good idea. Great for giving to the kids if they wanted a drink.
One point to note is that the nearby supermarket is also owned by the hotel, therefore their charges are higher. Worth taking a trip across the beach to the shops there.
Airtours reps work really hard to entertain. The kids love it. Non-stop, all day poolside enertainment that will keep you all entertained. The eveing entertainment was ok, however i felt that the imported entertainment was much better than the airtours team.
I would love to know if anyone has managed to get Gabby to smile !
I was disappointed at the money making scams though. Euro2004 was on and they were runnig a scratchcard whereby you pay 2 Euros a square, 50 squares, with the winner getting just 20 Euros ! You didnt need to be a mathematician to work out the profit, however no-one would tell me where the remaining money was going !
Having said all that i would not hesitate returning to this hotel, and if you are taking kids rest assured they will love every minute. Been back over a week and i still havent got the "Cartoon Heroes" tune out of my head yet!

This is a large hotel, which is very clean, but very hot, no air con except in adult bar,air con not working in restaruant.Rooms have ceiling fan which help a little.Food is pretty good, nicley presented, and quite a good choice, not sure about chips for breakfast though.Entertainment ? well depends on what you like dunnit.The large amount of kids seem to enjoy theirs anyway.
Staff are very pleasant, with only one cleaner keeping her head down whenever a guest came by

We went half board and found the food excellent, plenty to choose from.
The hotel rooms were spacious and very clean, we had a room overlooking the beach which was fab.
The beach itself is lovely with restaurants and a bar. There is also a ferry boat that takes you to San Antonio which the kids loved.
The hotel staff were very pleasant and friendly. Our light on the balcony went off one night and within 20 minutes they were there to fix it.
Hotel location not bad however to get to the nearest bars it was a bit of a trek with 2 young children. We found that we didn

You couldn't fault the extremely desirable location, right next to a beach.
The cleanliness was excellent.
The staff were smartly dressed and dealt quickly with any problems or queries we had.
The food was amazing and served so many varieties it couldn't be faulted.
The entertainment was good and amusing.
I would definitely go back again.
