decent food varietyacceptable tasteawful all-inclusive drinkscheap spirits
the food had a decent variety and tasted acceptable , so at least i didn't starve.
the all-inclusive drinks were awful , especially the cocktails , which tasted like chemical experiments gone wrong. i stuck to coca cola just to survive this thirst-quenching nightmare. the cheap spirits ruined every possible concoction.

the room was very clean and tidy. the food was good , though it lacked variety considering the hotel's rating. i found the beach club great for laying by the pool. the hotel offers day and night entertainment , also available at the riwo hotel and beach club nearby.
it was sometimes unclear what alcohol was available as part of the all inclusive package.
