To begin with, I would like to note that the hotel has a problem with stars. And not in the sense that they are not visible from the hotel, but in the fact that on some tourist resources the hotel is given 5*, and on others, as it turned out later, only 4*. We were a little upset when we bought a tour to a 5* hotel, and in the already purchased voucher we found 4*. And based on the results of our stay at Utopia Beach Club, we came to the conclusion that 4* is the maximum rating that this hotel deserves.
Advantages of the hotel: picturesque territory with a huge number of Instagram points; cozy, albeit microscopic rooms of the Villa Standard category; quite a decent free sauna; the presence of coffee machines with grain coffee in the bars and, albeit only a couple of samples of imported alcohol; hospitable and professional young lady from Kiev at the reception.
The list of shortcomings is more significant: 1) the quality and variety of food does not even deserve 3*; except for a few options for Italian pasta, omelettes and pastries, everything else is DEPRESSINGLY tasteless; starting from October 31, after the mass departure of "thrifty" tourists (who were the absolute majority here), the hotel began to switch to a total economy mode on food, and the usual tasteless full meals began to be replaced with tasteless snacks.

2) despite the presence of three beaches, at the end of October it is more or less convenient to use only one; on the main beach, even at the end of the season, there are problems with free sun loungers; two beaches in the lagoons are stunningly beautiful, but they smell bad either of stagnant water or rotting plants; the descent and ascent to one of the beaches in the lagoon is categorically contraindicated for people without sports training.
3) for tourists with strollers or the elderly, hiking from the Villa buildings to the main restaurant involves the need to overcome a fairly steep climb up the stairs; for many, the beach towel distribution point is extremely inconveniently organized.
4) There was no animation as such in the hotel, but the music from the karaoke/disco shook the walls of the room until late in the evening.
