appartement trop vétuste avec odeurs nauséabondes, avons été relogés au Gardena Ressort (même complexe) suite à notre demande. Le nouvel appartement avait été rénové et nettement plus agréable pour y passer une dizaine de jours. L'emplacement dans le nord de l'île est appréciable pour son calme et à proximité d'une plage (100 m). Les piscines sont grandes et agréables. Il existe un complexe aquatique ludique (payant).

Rénover entièrement certains appartement du Gardena Village qui sont vraiment trop vieux et vétustes de surcroît. Varier un peu plus les plats au self.

La calma

Olor a humildad, insectos de todo tipos, el lavabo, las piscinas no estaban limpias.

Lovely clean room, great pools and the buffet is excellent. The room was lovely, beautiful design, lovely and cool ceiling fans. And right by a lovely pool in pretty gardens, the resort is beautifully landscaped. It would be perfect for families with tiny children up to age 8, or as a relaxing base to explore from with a car. But with age 10+ or without kids I'd head somewhere more eventful, or certainly self cater and expect to drive to eat in the evening as there's nothing nearby. The buffet is great but all families with kids in the air con and noise, it wouldn't be a relaxing experience for couples!

We did say we were arriving early, but no check in before 3pm. We booked a partial sea view but the ground floor room was behind high bushes with no view and people walking past the bedroom. We saw some kids club people but didn't see any actual activities happening, and the "water park" is clean but just a little splash park for toddlers which you pay extra for on arrival which wasn't made clear. We paid extra for it, grudgingly, and then only used it for 10 minutes before our 7, 10 and 12 year olds wandered off, bored! I'd say it's an excellent hotel for families with toddlers wanting to stay there and do nothing. But it's a 40 minute hike into Fornells along the road, on an unspoilt but featureless peninsular, a bit desolate.

Breakfast excellent, rooms with no air conditionair

Air conditionair

Location is great. Overall, the staff is very helpful and smiling (except reception) The view of our room is perfect. We also liked the big pool area in the garden village section Quality of food is very good (if you go early)

We arrived around 10:00 and asked an early check in multiple times before the arrival. But they didnt even pretent to help. We just had to wait hours in the reception with a 2 years old. Also there are no air conditions in the hotel meaning you have to keep the windows open and funny enough there are no swatters. But there are a lot of mosquitoes around. I couldn’t even count the bites on my body (i think more than 30) Also dont go to breakfast around 10:00 as it gets extremely crowded

Independance, calme, ...

the fan did not work well and it was a lot of mosquito

Really torn about this place. The location on the beach was great, the water park and many pools brilliant and the food, especially the buffet dinner, was really delicious. Lots of activities too if you want them. All the staff we interacted with at mealtimes were lovely. And the style of the apartments is traditional and very appealing from the outside. However...

...the apartment was cold and dark and damp. All our clothes came away from our stay damp and smelly, even those that had started out dry. The apartment had no air con which shouldn't have been a problem at this time of year but because of the dampness of the apartment we ended up having to put the fan heater on for a couple of hours in the evening for the children to be able to get to sleep. There was enough hot water for one person to shower - in a 4 person apartment - so most of us had a cold shower. Which wasn't what we wanted after a day hiking. The bathroom was pretty bleak overall, the water from the shower went everywhere and there was no air in the room so nothing dried. We would have needed about 4 bath mats to manage the water on the floor and it took about an hour for the mirror to demist (the only mirror in the entire apartment). The sofabed the kids had to sleep on collapsed when you sat on the end of it. If they had mosquito nets on the windows we could have got more air into the apartment by having them open but there were so many mosquitoes around we had to batten down the hatches and deal with the sogginess.
