Our hotel room had issues. Didn’t lock from inside. Property looked tired and played out. There is an outdated collateral system for towels for the beach and pool. The buffet was average at best. The Waterfront area was dirty with cigarettes and containers floating in the water. We really wanted to love this place, but left unhappy and would never Recommend anyone to stay. The only positive thing is that the staff was very nice, but I felt they were constricted and restricted within their roles. There are many other places to stay in the surrounding area and I would hope they step up their game.

The staff is rude : doesn't Say hello and respond when we Say it. They give us only one room card for 3 adults in the room and refused to give another which created issues and inconfort. During the breakfast, they are harcelling us to take the vessels and dont let us finish to get ouf breakfast in calm. The swimming pool in picture used for promotion is billeable 25euros. Overall i dont recommend the stay, for this Price we Can expect a better experience and services from the staff

The hotel was good , the rooms clean and the staff were very pleasant, my only issue was that it wasn’t made clear that most of the facilities were closed because of the season, the main bars were closed, the main restaurant was closed and they wouldn’t even make cocktails at the only bar that was open. The surrounding area was closed but decent bars and restaurants were open in the main town.

Do not get sucked into the Instagram promotions for this hotel. It’s as though the hotel staff deliberately try to be as rude and unhelpful as possible! The floor plan of the hotel is the worst I’ve ever seen not to mention the 1 elevator that can barely fit 4 people in it. Once you find the right one you’ll be waiting for a while! The food is average at best although I didn’t get food poisoning so that’s a plus. The music is so loud it’s impossible to have a conversation and the genre is either 2am club dance music or hip hop. The roof top pool is accessible for €36 each. Fair to say I wouldn’t go back to this hotel even if they paid me. I usually don’t bother to leave reviews but this place just left me wanting to go home as soon as possible..

Great hotel with lots of facilities. Quite a walk from the centre of Serranda. Lots of elements have extra charges, which can be expensive if you want to use them.

This hotel really does have the potential to be 4* however it's not quite up to scratch. Before I arrived I read a lot of reviews saying the staff were rude but this simply wasn't the case everyone was always polite. The room it's self was very spacious and super clean. Couldn't fault it. However the shower was cold. We complained about this 3 times to be told someone would come and fix it but they never did. We went in may, when you book it says pools open in may. However they were not when we arrived. We asked and then they started to open them. But the area around the open outside pool was like a building site, broken tiles around which seemed very unsafe. The indoor pool was nice once they had heated it up lol. Not all the bars they advertise were open. I understand mag is low season but they really should tell you not all the pools and bars will be open when you're booking. I would recommend this hotel for a cheap clean room but don't have high hopes about the facilities they sell you.

It was the worst experience that we had in the whole trip. We only stayed for two nights, I complained twice about the smell in the room, and nobody cares. We left before, I contacted Expedia , i want a refund for all the other days i didn't stay there. I don't recommend this hotel to anyone. Very disappointed.

Upcharge for infinity pool
The only reason I’m giving 4 stars is because they wanted to charge us 25 euros per person for the infinity pool. They said it’s not included in the price even though it’s not mentioned anywhere on hotels.com. We were willing to pay and when we came back to the desk after we put our swim suits on I was told my son, who is 13, wasn’t allowed. Everything else about this hotel is amazing.

Liked beach access, children's pool, quiet, some of the staff great (but others need some training on customer service), room with small patio/garden. Some facilities very poor, e.g. gym not only very badly equipped for a supposed 5* but some so old it was dangerous. Pools could do with modernisation.
