Excellent hotel.
We arrived at the hotel at 10 am. They said they would check in after 13:00. We took cards for towels at the reception, changed into beach clothes and went to the beach. On the way we went to a bar, drank mango juice from a bag and coffee, no one refused. Despite the fact that we did not have bracelets. We took towels from the beach and had a great time swimming and sunbathing while drinking drinks from the beach bar. The beach is excellent, large and even, all in palm trees. Trestle beds are all working, mattresses are with small wounds, but there are very few of them, umbrellas are all intact. Lots of trash cans and ashtrays for smokers. Panton worked alone, although there are two of them. Pantone is good, short, descent and entry are comfortable. The coral is lively and beautiful, there are many fish. Especially if you swim to the rock, near the second pantone and behind it. You need to know where to swim, and not write different nonsense. Basically, everyone hangs near the pantone, only a few floated there. And then they write complete nonsense. Trust the person who is resting in the charm for the 8th time and only 5 times. And better ask the lifeguard who is on pantone, he will tell you where you can swim and where, what to watch. Special thanks to him. One point I didn't understand. When he raised the red flag, but the pantone did not close and everyone continued to swim (ours) and at the same time said that the hotel was not responsible in this case.
The bar on the beach is normal, standard. Beer, local alcohol, tea and instant coffee, pizza for lunch, Wine only in the main restaurant, the Reef restaurant and the lobby bar. Maybe near the pools in the bars, I did not check. The toilet on the beach is clean, cleaned regularly. In general, the staff is great, plow all day throughout the hotel. Perhaps that is why this hotel is so green, clean and well maintained.

About why the Germans staff take sunbeds on the first line and carry drinks. If you pay 5-10€ to the staff, then they will fly around you like bees. When I had such Germans, there were two pairs of pensioners. The rest were no different from us, only bracelets. Both on the beach and in restaurants.
At 13:00 we came to the reception, where we put on bracelets and sent for lunch.
After dinner they gave room 649. The room is small but clean. Everything worked. Cleaned up every day. Bed linen was not changed, but the floor was washed, swept and dusted. Cleaned up the table and bathroom. There were always clean towels. Detergents have been updated. They laid down a chocolate bar every day. For this they received a variety of figures from towels and an abundance of flowers on the bed.
It all depends on the cleaner. Friends also left, but they didn’t play anything. The downside is that there is no kettle and set in the room, as in other hotels. You can get it at the reception for 15€.
You won't be hungry. Respect to the chef, whom I always saw in the hall of the main restaurant. Beef, lamb, chicken and fish have always been. Plus lulakebab, cutlets, something like pizza with different fillings from the oven, etc. Cons: Not enough fruit. But for dinner, a paradise for the sweet tooth. If something ran out, they brought it right away. It is not necessary to run to the opening, as in other hotels, you can come to the end and it will be the same. Drinks are served by waiters.
You can have breakfast and dinner at the Reef restaurant, near the sea. Everything is the same, only there are much fewer people.
You can have a bite to eat near the pools at the bar and in the restaurant on the beach. Just go to the reception and take a map from them, where everything is located, what and when they give it. Don't be lazy and you will be happy. And then many, and as practice shows, 30 percent on the last day will find out that there is so much of everything...
A hundred meters from the hotel there are few shops where you can buy fruits and other things. Also excursions.

1.5km El Mercado, 4.5km old town. After dinner, you can go shopping in the old town for less money. The main thing is to bargain and smile. You can knock down 50%. Back in a taxi, for $2, but no more. El Mercado has a Farez fish restaurant.
Briefly speaking. Rest was a success. The main thing is to take a good mood and do not pay attention to the little things. And remember how you will treat the staff, and they will treat you. Do not spare dollars to the waiter and you will feel yourself no worse than the Germans.
And those who write negative reviews. Guys you are waiting for the resorts of Ukraine!!!
Thanks to all the hotel staff!
We'll be back!
By the way, at 12:00 we were assigned a room, took off our bracelets and lo and behold, we were sent for lunch. Even though we were picked up at 13:30. True, the plane began to be moved and we walked around the hotel and used all the bars until 18:00.
Special thanks to the hotel management!
