The views from our room were stunning, waking up and having a coffee on the balcony in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening, with the sea views rolling down from steep hills, and the snow-capped mountains of Albania to look out to was fantastic.
The staff could not have done more, and the range and quality of food and drinks each day was fantastic, it was almost impossible not to gorge. This was my first time in an all-inclusive resort and I thought I would go stir crazy with a lack of choice, but this wasn't the case.
We went at the start of the season over the Easter holidays and they probably weren't into the swing of the entertainment schedule, which was generally aimed at kids in the evening (though there was good live music one night). It's very family friendly, but would have been good to have a small bar area for adults. This may be different as it progresses into the full season.
The resort itself is deserving of four stars, however the rooms are in need of updating, probably what you would expect from a three star property. The beds need replaced as soon as possible, they are twins pushed together (but not connected) so slide apart, and the quality of the mattress is poor enough to affect sleep. I've never gone to a hotel before and had such an issue, and it's a real shame to have let the hotel down. We will be back in a flash when this has been sorted!
