    - The price that was charged was slightly above what booking.com specify. - Maybe a suggestion: food is lavish, but too many wastage by the customers (take a lot food from the buffet and then don’t eat and thrown away). Suggestion is to find a way to sensitize the guest to avoid wasting food (for example putting some stickers/boards to remind them or in any other ways.) It is sad that some of the local people there is striving to feed themselves and in hotels food are thrown away (though no fault of the hotel) - Consider adding a water kettle and some tea bags in the room (though you can still get something from the bar / midnight snack, would be handy to be able to have something in the room)

    - Very nice location and everything available within the resort - Nice staffs, always willing to help - Very clean room, they clean it everyday unless you request not to do it. Hotel in general is very clean - Nice animations, for every age group - Nice food, perfect buffet - Overall, only positive words to say about the location

    I am taking two stars off though because of an incident that happened in the last 2 minutes of my stay. I made a mistake and entered the restaurant 2 minutes before it opens (no body was at the door to tell me its still closed Thought two minutes are ok) I was leaving to the airport and I wanted to get few noodles for my 1 year old to eat on the way. One of the personnel who seems to be the responsible on the buffet started yelling at me for entering and was not respectful, even though I explained the situation he kept yelling and I was somewhat kicked from the restaurant. I could hear the guy yelling at the other workers after I left ! It was horrible and unfortunately, it was all that it stayed in my mind after leaving the hotel :( ! It was one person s bad behavior, but everyone else was nice. I say sorry for the workers who got yelled at because of me when I entered the restaurant 2 minutes early ! I I thought it was ok and nobody said anything at the door. Sorry for getting you into trouble.

    Everything was nice at the hotel ! The highlight was of course, the buffet. It was delicious food and very diverse! The rooms were also nice and clean, the hotel is a heaven for the kids as they can do so many activities and never get bored.

    Activities advertised as included like waterskiing were limited; trial lessons advertised weren't in fact available, and the clientele that this place attracts didn't want to/don't know how to queue. Customer service pre arrival was very poor.

    Clean beach, bar and facilities, and polite staff.

    Staff continuously looking for tips, regardless of the fact that you have already paid for all facilities. 2 single beds are quite dissappointing to have rather than a double one.

    Exceptional overall. Beach within the resort. Good range of alcohol and food.

    English is very hard speaking there many is French and German as a tourist place they should invest more in staff that does speak English. But even in this way they really try to help in anything we need.

    A very clean place, a very friendly staff throughout all hotel.

    the buffet (a lot of choices but none of them tasted very good). beds are quite small. only a terrible hair dryer from the 90s. loud music until midnight that can be heard in the rooms.

    big resort with lots of activities. ice cream station, pancake station, and bars throughout the place. the rooms are clean and the staff was great.

    I know it is mainly french tourist location, but still would expect receptionist to be able to speak english. Elderly man at the reception could not communicate in english on our arrival day. However next day we met lady receptionist and she helped us a lot. Again as we stayed in March and the season had not started yet, there was no entertainment at the hotel. No live performances, no sports activities.

    extremely helpfull lady in reception. Restaurant staff super friendly. Food absolutely amazing especially taking into account we stayed not during the season. Selection was always good. Rooms spacious and clean.

    The DJ this year is terrible and not per Magic Life standards. Rotation amongst the personnel makes your customer experience very uncertain from very good to very bad when you deal with young and untrained personnel especially at the beach

    As expected good value for money. Good food and good facilities for families.
