An enormous, rambling, no-frills package option with an unappealing exterior but a spacious, pleasant if somewhat functional interior. It is short on in-room facilities and the pool terrace is woefully inadequate for the number of guests - although the extensive grounds and long concrete beach compensate. A full entertainment programme is on offer in high season only. Suits families on a budget. Lots of steps around the grounds and pool area may be difficult for those with mobility problems. Rather distant from the the old town, which can be reached by minitrain, boat or an hour or so walk along a pleasant coastal path.
