When we arrived, we were told our room was in Block C. It transpired that this was some distance along the road. We had to go down some steps to the level for our room. We had to go down many steps to get to the beach area. Our sea view room looked out onto a gravel terrace full of weeds. The hotel was by no means full - why were we given this room? My husband told the receptionist that the room was completely unsuitable because I have a heart complaint - I couldn’t cope with all the steps involved, so needed a room serviced by an elevator. The receptionist - Senka - was very helpful and offered us a change of room straight away. We said we’d move the next morning. All the rooms are identical, but they really are chalk and cheese. Our new room (201) was SO much better…… proper sea view with no weeds in sight, near to the elevator and other facilities. (The C Block room was 501……avoid!) I really can’t understand how the rooms are allocated. We had booked for 5 nights, and the first room was awful, and you could see clearly from the pool area, for example, that there were plenty of empty rooms in the main building. The room was comfortable with a very comfortable bed, and an adequate balcony. The shower room needs updating. It’s very small and sombre, with unpleasant smelling toiletries. Thin towels. They will provide a kettle and cups if you ask, so I took my own tea bags from home, as I’d read that on Tripadvisor before we left. The breakfasts were good. The evening dinner - buffet - was generally fine, although the hot food needed to be hot. The desserts were the usual fare of terribly sweet cakes, but there was fresh fruit, and you could help yourself to icecream, so all was not lost. Wines , (local), are quite pricey and the cheapest one was not available by our last evening - I think we must have exhausted their supply on the previous four nights. Not many people seemed to be drinking wine. The swimming must have been great for confident swimmers. However, you’re straight away into deep water, so this hotel, if you are planning on a beach type break, is completely unsuitable if you have young children or are not that confident a swimmer yourself. I thought I’d swim in the pool, but didn’t, as this is a throw back from older times - you are out of your depth for 2/3 of the pool. This was our swimming part of a two week trip and I wasn’t able to swim at all, which was tremendously disappointing. Friendly and hard working staff and everywhere was very clean. My Aminess Loyalty card refused to work. After two attempts by reception , assuring me it would work, I didn’t bother anymore. There are two supermarkets close by. Go to the pool area, then go down one flight of steps and turn left towards the village, and follow the road along the edge of the sea. After a short distance is the first one - open just mornings. Much further along is a decent sized supermarket. And it’s a pleasant stroll to get there.
