We were in Fiesta in July 2009, three of us with a boy of 11 years old, for 13 days.
First, about the shortcomings of this hotel... There are no fruits, only watermelons, the canteen is a closed gas chamber
(therefore, the war for tables in the gazebo), mattresses on the beach are paid, pools - small (swam in 5 strokes) and very small (splash pool), beach bar - sucks in all respects, from drinks there are only diluted "Jupis"; animation, disco - a natural general store! . . The very location of the hotel is really on the outskirts, to the nearest group of hotels with shops ~ 1 km. True, on the other side, 50 meters away, there is a fruit tent, they constantly took cherries there (2 bucks / kg).

Well, in general, quite a normal hotel for 3 *. Small, cozy. The staff is polite, it is quite possible to explain yourself in a mixture of Russian-gestures-English. We got a good, bright, corner room, with 2 balconies (overlooking the sea and the courtyard, the gazebo). The shower cabin is rather big, there is hot water. We found a minibar under the TV, we used it as a refrigerator. There are interruptions with electricity, several times at night the air conditioner turned off, and without it it is simply impossible to sleep - stuffy and humid. It is better not to open the balcony - there are a lot of mosquitoes after sunset (stock up on anti-mosquito products, buying there will cost 2 times more). The room is not cleaned every day, linen was changed a couple of times. The food is quite good, a lot of greens, vegetables, but the meat is soy, but the chicken is natural; 2 times there was fish. The bar has beer (light, weak, cold, and drank it), also vodka, gin, wines, Pepsi, Fanta, Sprite, mineral water with ice. There are tea and coffee machines, although I did not like the coffee there. Drinking water in a cooler. After 23:00 the bar is paid, and the cooler-coffee-pots-kettles are removed.
The slide on the pool is small, but just right for children. Sun loungers around the pool, but there are very few of them. The beach is across the highway on the subway, really from the residential buildings of the hotel to the edge of the sea to go 150-200 meters. The beach is sandy, there are not enough sun loungers for everyone in the morning. Bottom - sand interspersed with ridges of boulders, so be careful when entering the sea. From the end of the pontoon they jumped into the water (there is a depth of 4-5 m), in a crowd, with animators, after volleyball... fun! I really liked the sea, clean, transparent, and the rocky ridges were only on hand for me: I love scuba diving, I constantly dived in a mask-fins-snorkel, but all the aquatic animals hang out among the stones and caves. Once I saw a stingray, there are sea urchins (they cluster at the bottom closer to the end of the pontoon, hide in crevices, where it is deeper, so stepping on them is a must). I drove a small octopus for a couple of days, found its mink in the depths under a stone... beautiful, infection! : ) There are a lot of fish, different ones, a trifle so generally crowded in huge shoals, it’s cool that you swim among them under water, and they part, surround and peel at you with thousands of eyes. At the bottom, where it is deeper (6 m), I collected beautiful shells, crab claws, a couple of times I caught a pretty bright mollusk.
In general, we had a good rest, the hotel is very good and fully justifies its 3 * +
Although, I confess, I will not go there a second time.
