“ Breakfast and dinner were amazing. I would recommend . ”
“ This is a really nice, well maintained Marriott Vacation Club property. The grounds are beautifully kept and have matured well. Great facilities. Two nice outdoor pools and and a terrific kids pool area. Additionally there a good indoor pool and excellent gym. The real clincher here is the excellent staff that are determined to ensure you have a great time, I must give the cleaning team a shout out too - the rooms are really well kept. If only all Marriott properties had the same high standards…, ”
“ On our first night, we needed a simple option for dinner. I researched this restaurant before our visit, and was expecting high prices for the food. We ordered some hummus and bread($13EU)as an appetizer along with a glass of wine($7 & $5EU) for each adult. Our kids each had a chocolate milk($6eu×2) Our waiter recommended the octopus($26eu) and sea bream($28eu). The octopus was very good and I am glad the waiter had recommended it. The sea bream didn't have a side like the octopus ~ weird. The service was decent, but we didn't have a consistent server throughout the meal. Which was strange to us. Our final bill came to $145EU including a small tip of $10EU. Definitely not worth it in our opinion. But this is our first visit to Spain so we're only basing this our American dining experiences. A $160 US meal would be pretty amazing. This was not. ”

Our expert chef demonstrated the step-by-step process of making this traditional Spanish dish, from selecting the perfect ingredients to perfecting the cooking technique. After the cooking demonstration, we were seated at a delicious paella dinner, paired with refreshing sangria alongside the stunning show of Flamenco. ”

“ We visited there twice during the stay, one is dinner and one is pool side lunch. Dinner first, food and vibes are excellent. Sadly they didn’t accept our VIP discount card when we were checking the bill. However they didn’t ask us if we have the Marriott Vacation Club app and show the member code to get the discount while the staff of pool side bar did when we had lunch the day after. Kids meal has a generous portion ”
