Pas grande chose!! Rapport qualité/prix catastrophique
Déjeuner catastrophique, nourriture industrielles…les 5 étoiles bidons…. La climatisation coulent dans le salon d’une chambre de luxe….
3.5 / 5.0
Sauberkeit, Zimmer war auch geräumig und ausreichend modern eingerichtet.
Raumservice war gut und ordentlich.
Service war im Restaurant nicht immer gut. Die Kaffeemaschinen, zwei direkt nebeneinander, waren eine Katastrophe. Einer war immer defekt. An einem Tag war kein Kaffee im Frühstückszeitraum zu bekommen.
Permanente Musikberieselung, z.T. sehr laut. Mit zunehmender Dauer funktionierte die Liegenverteilung nicht mehr. Die Liegen waren dann schon ab 6-7 mit privaten Handtüchern belegt, obwohl es ein System mit Zimmerschildern gab.

a location with potential
- Running a 5* hotel isn't about slapping a fourth and fifth star on your door.
It's about a lot of clear, hard rules and a thousand little things that complete the luxury experience.
Here, on the other hand, thousands of little flaws will make you angry.
If it was advertised as a 3 max 4* hotel, you would not feel deceived. On the contrary, you will not perceive the shortcomings, you will overlook them or wave your hand over them. But you can't do that with a 5 star hotel.
Here are a few examples of shortcomings that bothered me.
Room - broken toiletries holder, loose toilet paper holder, one chair ( double room ), loose lamp, no pencil or notepad, no hotel cosmetics except liquid soap in broken dispenser and shower shampoo in dispenser in shower, safe closed.
Breakfast: the quality of the food is very low, the choice is very limited.
Poor coffee from the machine at breakfast, the size of the cups for tea is the same as for coffee - so small. Lack of tea pot. Plastic stirrers instead of spoons, limited choice of pastries, cheeses, salami and " gourmet experience " is topped off with over-oil butter.
The outdoor pool is just for show, there is nowhere to lie down and the water is like ice.
Wi-fi on the hotel beach does not work, even though the beach is right in front of the hotel. In truth, she works very badly even in the hotel.
Just don't expect a 5* standard here.
If you close your eyes and there is an improvement in eating, you can expect an average of 4 stars.
I understand that pricing is a tricky thing in an increasingly competitive environment. But it's not a solution to leave the price competitive with a 3 or 4* hotel and just finish off the fifth star.
Those who want a 5 star hotel will gladly pay extra for it. But only competition in the form of a global chain can change that.
As a final joke, I take the offer made by the front desk to use the indoor spa facilities at 6:00 p.m.

This hotel is stunning, the staff are really friendly and you really do get the impression they care and it’s not just a job. Walking out on to the sea front and waking up to the sound of the sea is something I’m missing already

La gentillesse du personnel à la réception et au restaurant ( moins au petit dej’).
Le confort de la chambre, l’assiette de fruit à l’arrivée ( super pour mon fils !)
Hôtel isolé, dans un quartier en développement donc en travaux .
Le petit dej trop industriel

Staff were very polite and helpful. The cleaning staff are constantly cleaning and moping. Pool area was lovely, restaurant was decorated and styled beautifully. Lunch and drinks were reasonably priced. Breakfast was nice good choice of meats cheeses, omelette, pancakes fruits etc. Beach towels and sunlounges are included.
There is a lot of construction going on in the area but you don't see or hear this when you are in the hotel.

Hotel czysty, przy plaży. Ładny widok z balkonu. Śniadania dobre. Przemiły personel recepcji.
Restauracja hotelowa z bardzo dobrym menu i świetnych cenach.
Bardzo głośne zachowanie pań sprzątających od samego rana… dla chcących spać dłużej, był to problem.

I loved the staff. Very, very polite and keen to help. The room was very nice. The view was spectacular. The bathroom was also nice. The pool area outside is splendid. I also liked the a la carte restaurant. Very nice choice of food.
We would have liked a better variety of food for breakfast. It is probably the part that needs the most improving at this location. Also, the spa consists only of a pool and a sauna. It could be bigger.

The room was great, junior suite, amazing view. Cleaning done daily, the staff very nice and kind.
Very basic breakfast, i would say for a 3 star hotel (same food every day, limited options). Spa is okish ( -1 floor, humid and not good air, cold pool, nice sauna) but not good enough to justify the extra price per night vs a hotel without spa.

La struttura e le camere sono molto belle e situate in un ottima posizione.
Siamo rimasti molto delusi in quanto nel soggiorno era incluso l'accesso alla spa che a causa di un eccessivo numero di bambini con pistole ad acqua all'interno della piscina è stato impossibile usufruire.
Abbiamo scelto questo hotel proprio per la Spa e per noi è stato davvero deludente.
I bambini in un area RELAX non dovrebbero accedere.
Inoltre la domenica la spa apre alle ore 12:00 e anche questo ha reso impossibile l'utilizzo la mattina...quindi abbiamo pagato un servizio senza averlo utilizzato.
La camera molto pulita e bella, peccato però che lo scarico della doccia del bagno emanava un pessimo odore.
In fine il telecomando della TV non era funzionante.

Lokalizacja, przepiękny widok na morze, wyjście na plażę wśród palm i latarni. Miła i pomocna obsługa, bardzo dobre śniadanie, zrobione specjalnie dla nas omlety. Niestety nie skorzystaliśmy ze strefy SPA, ponieważ była zamknięta.
Brak

The pool was stunning, the suite was incredible and had two balconies- felt very luxurious!
I didn't have the all inclusive food/drink so I ate in the restaurant side for lunch and dinner, it was incredibly tasty and good value for money still so I didnt mind. The buffet for breakfast was varied.
I will say the noise level in the evening is geared towards having a good time, but can be a bit much if you want to head to bed early. There was also a lot of competition on sun loungers at the pool/ people moving your towel etc. Thankfully there are ample areas to be out in the sun in side tables etc.

We had the most amazing stay thank you so much! Can't wait to come back to Albania.
I think I may have left a south africa baseball cap in our room would it be possible to get in contact with someone to locate and send it back to me.

The hotel is very nice, a lot of attention was put on details. Good breakfast, extremely friendly and helpful staff. Cleaning ladies are incredible.
What is the worst part of the experience is management and attitiude towards guests. Everyday someone comes and checks the minibar, not to see if you need something, but to check if you maybe used it. They have copies of passports and credit cards, so making everyone feel like a thief is not to best apporach. The same with the check-out, they wait until someone confirms that you did not destroy the room or did not pack the sofa in your suitcase, no idea. Simply unpleasant.
Another thing is the music, all day long and very loud, at the breakfast, at the pool, at the beach bar. So loud you can barely hear yourself.
The pool looks nice, but is surrounded with tables, so neither eating close to people sunbathing not sunbathing/swimming near people eating is appealing.
I would not come back.

It was really hard to find it, better instructions would be great.
