7.8/10 Good! (869 reviews)

The place is very nice, amazing pools, a lot of food and drinks available all day. The buildings are old, they need new painting, new furniture. My only problem was the room next to me, it was a very loud couple, they were waking me up every day. The couple was very bad, they were saying bad words all the time...not fun, I complained 3 times with the stufff, they did not do nothing. Disappoointed.

8.6/10 Excellent! (437 reviews)

I went there 5 times. The 4th I was robbed at ALA SOL. They took my debit card from safety box. I have all the proof. I wrote to them but nobody answered. This summer I came back (close, good sea) and the food was terrible. Bar bartenders hated Argentine people and, there was a bad service at restos and bad food.The only food for veggie people was salad! What was worse, you had to “fight” in order to get a chair at the beach! Terrible! Last but not least, there isn’t a doctor or a place for quick medical attendance. Even though you have your insurance, I was bitten by a giant ant and I almost collapsed. They should have someone in situ. I love the beach at the place but I am quiet disappointed!
