Highly recommend The Sunshire Hotel

We had booked to stay in another hotel which was sub standard and got our booking wrong. I telephoned Hotels.com, who were fantastic and within an hour we had been relocated to The Sunshine hotel. How lucky were we. Our rooms were nice and clean, there was a great pool. The restaurant served a lovely buffet which appealed to my three teenage girls. Whilst the hotel is very remote there is a shuttle service to the beach which is very efficient. You do need a car here. We were the only English people in the hotel and I have to say the staff were exceptional and made us feel so welcome and tried to speak English. I really cannot express how helpful, polite and friendly they were. The staff make this hotel without a doubt. Will definitely return.

Bella vacanza

buona sistemazione, la camere erano un po piccole ma la vista eccellente e abbastanza accessoriate per la pulizia un po di impegno in più dagli inservienti. Eccellente la cucina sia come abbondanza che come qualità, qualcosa in più si potrebbe fare sulla colazione. Favolosa l'animazione, gli animatori tutti molto bravi

Bellissimo

Siamo stati solo poche ore per esigenze di viaggio ma siamo rimasti molto contenti della qualità offerta dall'hotel. Colazione ottima: crepes e pancakes preparati sul momento, cornetti caldi e molto altro. Hotel ben tenuto e pulito, bellissima struttura. Ampio spazio all'aperto. Tante iniziative da parte del personale interno: animazione per i bambini, yoga al mattino, etc. Posizione abbastanza isolata, ma l'hotel dispone di camere con vista e navetta gratuita verso la spiaggia più vicina.

Albergo a 4km dal mare

Non riuscivo ad arrivarci perchè per strada non c'era la segnaletica in quanto molto lontano da tutto,l'animazione era solo per bambini, camera piccolissima e lenzuola mai cambiate in una settimana.Per andare al mare ci voleva per forza la navetta...insomma per me è stata un'esperienza negativa.Nel corridoio sempre rumore specie la notte...e poi pagare una tessera per i servizi che non usufruisci non è giusto anche perchè non era stato detto prima.

Hotel grazioso all' insegna del relax e del mare.

Hotel posto in posizione panoramica ma decentrata, gradevole il soggiorno anche se si è condizionati dall'uso della propria vettura se si vuole un po' visitare la zona; personale cordiale e gentile, ristorazione buona e parcheggio ampio gratuito messo a disposizione. Ottimo il transfer fornito dalla struttura per raggiungere la bella spiaggia delle Grotticelle, un ringraziamento particolare a Michele e al bagnino ( di cui non ricordo al momento il nome ) per la disponibilità, la cortesia e l' estrema simpatia mostrata; considerato le belle giornate che ci hanno accompagnato durante il soggiorno, abbiamo sfruttato poco il centro benessere ma abbiamo avuto modo comunque di apprezzare, anche in questo caso, la simpatia e la professionalità del personale ad esso adibito. Grazie a tutti!

Ottima struttura, peccato che ci siamo stati solo una notte. Ottimo cibo, tutti i comfort, staff molto gentile. Lo consiglio alle coppie in cerca di relax. Unico punto negativo è che le bevande non incluse nella cena, e nessuno te lo dice
