Everything was excellent!! There was nothing that we could fault. We would go a little later in the year so that it was warmer and then the pool would be warmer however, the time of year we went wasn't too busy so it was perfect. Every staff member made you feel welcome and took time to help you and made sure we were enjoying ourselves.
The jet2 reps were brilliant, especially Lea, she was so attentive. Should would message us to check up on us and she checked in most days at the hotel to answer any questions and help arrange things for us to do in the day. Lea definutely made this holiday for us, always smiling and was extremely friendly.
We were so grateful to everyone who helped make our holiday extremely special. The excursions were also brilliant with knowledgable tour guides and excellent stops with the right amount of time to spend at different places. Very very happy and will definitely be returning soon.
