+Nice room with nice sea view. Breakfast good as always.
−Room 105. Aircon was not working!!! See the photo no wonder its not working!! Most terrible shower/bath setup. Shower in the bath but not one is functional!! Please sort it out and dont let guest’s stay in room 105 while you are aware of the problems!!

“It was okay. Not a place I would visit again.”
+Nice sea views
−Outdated. Breakfast was cold. Service at the bar was poor. Didn’t like the smells from the ski boat club. Tables were unstable. Floor tiles were wet from guests using the pool and it was dangerous.

“The best thing here is the location. Cleanliness extremely poor.”
+The breakfast was very limited.
−We booked three rooms. When my son checked in the rooms were in a really bad condition. There was blood in the toilet. The linen was dirty. He had to change rooms 3 times. I found the towels to be in a poor condition and seemed like it was not washed properly. The rooms were being swept even after we had asked for it to be vacuumed especially that I have a lung infection. The linen was not changed in the other two rooms for our whole stay which was 5 nights. My son had to insist on having the linen changed in his room One should not have to compromise when on holiday and to be keep chasing for a good clean. We have a certain standard of cleanliness and hygiene in our homes and we expect the same if not better when you have to stay in a holiday home. Your undertaking of home away from home is defintely not applicable here. The maintenance overall is very poor, in the one room the doors couldn't close properly. The other room the bathroom door frames were chipped and looked shoddy. The one room aircon did not work and my son had to move into another room.
