Good hotel, worth the money, but it's a solid 4*, not 5*.
Of the benefits - an incredibly green area (orange and lemon trees, ficuses, palm trees, etc. ), which is carefully looked after; picturesque road to the sea (350-400 meters along the road through a fragrant pine forest. You can walk for 6-7 minutes for pleasure or jump into a transfer that runs quite often); a good selection of dishes among which there is always something to your taste (decent cheeses for breakfast, desserts, all kinds of cakes, meat and fish dishes, fruits - mostly melons, watermelons, apples, grapes, 1 time - plums, apricots, peaches; high-quality ice cream at lunchtime and at dinner) poolside bar where you can have a bite to eat; wonderful transparent sea (+26) and a beach with enough sunbeds even at rush hour when fully loaded, you can take drinks from 10.00 to 18.00 (cola, fanta, sprite, beer, coffee) and snacks from 11.00 to 16.00 (burgers, fries ).
Of the minuses - the queue for food in the main restaurant (the staff at the distribution does not have time, but this is due to covid restrictions), it is difficult to find a free table (you can wander around the halls for up to 10 minutes in search of a free place, and then wait another 5-10 minutes until it will be removed, preserved); uncomfortable plastic beds; trash on the beach.

And a fat minus for the lack of information about the location of the Garden room without balcony category (we looked at several tour operator websites in advance, they didn’t find anything special in their description except for the absence of a balcony). It turned out on the spot that these rooms were not located in the buildings (main or annex), but in a one-story annex under the bar (basement), which can be mistaken for utility rooms. Inside, a good repair, but very humid and noisy (music rumbles, the legs of chairs and tables drive in the bar upstairs, past the window and door of the room (50 cm) vacationers run around the clock (path to the beach and to the bar).
It is impossible to replace the room in the high season, everything is busy.
