"Mooi hotel, als je niet van drukte houdt en niet te lux, eigen duikshop! vriendelijk personeel!"

8.0

Mooi locaties, het hotel heef 2 zuster hotels waartussen je kunt kiezen en alle services kunt gebruiken, elke dag rijd er een shuttle tussen de hotels. mooi voor de afwisseling.

ontbijt is ok, maar kan iets meer afwisselingen op het buffet, aandacht van het personeel in het restaurant en zorgen dat er altijd voorraad is, helpt ook om meer te verkopen.

"Nice experience, but will not be back for sure"

4.0

Garden is very nice. Provided room was clean and spacy; with enought plugs and even with small place to work (the table and chair). Bathroom was nice and working properly. Balcony is great to spent some time on air and alone. The pool area is bit far from sea, but nice and cozy. The property have two other Sunshine hotels; you can travel to those. Marina is very secluded even more than Bay, but very nice obviously quite new. Azure is nice, more in "town" and you can easily walk around to check other places, restaurant and meet more people. Staff was very nice; just time to time completely clueless.

You can spent hours by the pool and no one will even come to ask if you want to drink or eat = in general if you not go and ask you will not be served. Wifi was at start (when nearly no one was in property) quite ok, later on was so slow you will not be able to download even email. For sure not a place if you would like to work from abroad. Restaurant - overpriced with crapy quality probably based on if you fit into the cooks experience; pizza was horrible; pasta was once ok once it looked like "what was remaining in kitchen". In general food was very poor quality; Breakfast was horrible from soggy toasts bread which was very stale; to beef salami which i just tasted and nearly vomit (i think that salami was there for weeks). and last day when was raining = no breakfast as all staff just looked on storm, no services. The offer is always the same every day. Room equipment: safe is so small it holds only vallet (forget to pit there notebook, even small ipad did not fit). climatization did not work - it just spilled lot of watter into the room; but what ever temperature you set it barelly was able to hold around 26-28C in a room. Location: if you like a serenity of noone around and be all the time in hotel; this is a very nice place for relax. But if you would like to try different restaurant (not only due to fact that in hotel one you have like ten choices what to eat) than you need to understand you are in middle of gheto; outside is like after bombing = there is nothing. By the beach you need to go 1-2km to get to ther places... Beach and sea - sea most of the time due tides is like 500m-1km away, you see only shallow nothing not suitable for swimming. The beach is total mess; lot of trash and seaweed etc. Oh and in sea you have lot of "hedgehogs" so not suitable to go bare foot.

"Excellent séjour si on souhaite du soleil, la mer et du repos de la détente."

9.0

La verdure, l’accès mer, les piscines , le personnel de la restauration et le calme. La chambre vue mer. Là proximité avec le club de plongée de Dive point( excellent club, je recommande) . La seul activité à faire.

La carte est un courte quand tu restes 9 jours sur places. Par contre les activités proposées à part la plongée avec Dive point sont sans intérêt et très coûteuse. Ne surtout pas faire le jardin des épices qui est absolument un attrape touriste sans intérêt.

"Esperábamos un poco más por el precio"

6.0

Bellas instalaciones, muy tranquilo. Personal muy amable y atento. Playa exclusiva muy tranquila, agua en general despejada (con algas pero nada tan terrible). Buen desayuno, algunos días buffet y otros a la mesa (en aquel día, opciones limitadas, inicio más tarde también)

Regular relación precio-calidad. El restaurante muy caro y regular calidad. Nada de lo que pedimos realmente nos gustó. Como queda bastante aislado de todo, tampoco hay posibilidad de caminar a algún restaurant cercano. El wifi es malo, en la habitación no teníamos señal. Cortes de luz muy frecuentes, demoraba en volver. Agua de la piscina y de las llaves de la habitación (tanto ducha como lavamanos) era salada, por lo que debíamos lavarnos los dientes con el agua para beber. A pesar de que la playa es “privada”, constantemente se nos acercaba gente a vendernos tours y artesanías de forma muy insistente. Quizás por el valor hay mejores opciones

"Mein Aufenthalt im Sunshine Bay war "amazing""

9.0

Das Hotel war sehr schön; sehr gute Lage direkt am Strand; grosses und sehr schönes Zimmer, leckeres Frühstück, sehr freundliches Personal, Massage und Pedicure waren super!

Trotz Hotelbeschrieb "adults only" hatte es Kinder im Hotel. Dies hat mich nicht weiter gestört. Aber für Personen, die extra ein Hotel ohne Kinder wählen, ev. nicht das Richtige.
