The accommodation supplied was very good, with all the rooms having air-conditioning, colour TV (a few American channels, CNN news and Films) and a fridge. The double bed in our room had to be seen to be believed, it was that big we needed a megaphone to talk to one another. (There is a phone by the bed, so you can talk to your friend's in their room if you want) There was also a safety deposit box, for which you obtained the key from reception. The maid service was also very good, with the bedding being total changed over two days. (The top sheet became the bottom sheet; the bottom sheet was replaced.) There was an abundance of towels if you needed them, with beach towels being supplied as well. Each day when we returned to our room, we were met with a different sculpture, made from towels, that the maid had created and placed on the bed. The rooms never the less were quite basic but meet our needs, the water for the shower was hot and plentiful most of the time, (we only had one day when there was a problem with it). The swimming pool at our complex was filled with seawater, which was treated daily by the attendant and was fairly shallow at its deepest end. The entertainment (Animacion) staff arranged various pool games if you wanted to take part, volleyball being a regular one, other events were also arranged for those who did not like the water, local dance lessons being popular as well.. The bar and restaurant staff were kind, helpful and cheerful. Nothing seemed too much for them when asked to do something. All the drinks were within the cost of the all-inclusive holiday, with the beer always being cold.
