We stayed at this hotel for a family trip in the school holidays. We chose this hotel, due to the proximity to the local beach, bars and resturants and the fact that it had plenty of slides to keep the kids entertained. |The hotel is a fairly short transfer ride from Girona airport, the only downside is the transfer bus drops you off a few minutes walk from the hotel, with a small but fairly steep hill to navigate. This will be fine for most people but if your party has elderly people or those with mobility issues it may be worth getting a taxi to the hotel.|We have stayed in a few similar hotels to this in Spain, for kids holidays, and it compares fairly well. All of our party were allocated rooms on the ground floor, which was a bonus as there were no lifts for us to worry about, however I cannot comment on how good or bad they were, as we did not use them. |The rooms themselves were an ok size, enough room for two adults and a child. The room was cleaned everyday, the air conditioning was very good, and the shower was powerful and modern. We had a decent sized balcony, however the beds were not the most comfy, but they never are on these types of holidays. It's also worth noting that there were no tea or coffee facilities in the room. |The resort felt safe, and our 9 and 10 year old's in the party could happily run around on their own, making use of the many slides available, the only downside being that they close at certain points during the day. There is also a mini golf course, a smaller kids lazy river, climbing frames, and an area with water guns that the kids can fire at each other. The pool was a good size and the majority of the time did not feel too busy. There were plenty of sunbeds to go round, and a good sized indoor pool, if you wanted to get out of the sun for a bit. |The food was nice, replenished quickly, and plenty of choice. The two downsides were that the plates were not cleaned away at all during our meal, and unlike other hotels where you help yourself to drinks, in this hotel when you get seated someone will come and take your drinks order. That's not a problem, however if you want another you have to try and find a waiter to get one, as they never come and ask if we wanted another drink. |The entertainment was hit and miss some nights better than others. They had a silent disco, a magician, and a Spanish act, to name a few, but for the most part, the kids enjoyed it. The only other downside was the outside bar, who were very strict on the two drinks rule, however if you have other people in your party sat on a table less than 6 foot away from the bar, common sense would say you should be able to get up to 4 drinks at a time. However, if you wanted two drinks each, they would make the other person stand up and walk to the bar, even if they are almost in touching distance. It's a ridiculous rule, because you get two drinks and then have to rejoin the queue again to get more, so they aren't really making things any quicker. |The kids enjoyed the arcade in the hotel lobby, as well as the PlayStation which is a euro for 10 minutes. The hotel is centrally located within a 5 minutes walk to the beach, and the main part of town where the bars and resturants are.|Overall we had a good time, and the kids would certainly like to go back and visit. The only recommendations that I would suggest to improve the experience would be to clear plates quicker in the resturant, come round and offer more drinks to guests in the dining room, and if guests are sitting in the immediate bar area, relax the two drink rule, to stop people having to queue up twice.
