Hotel reviews for Sunshine Vacation Club

Arrived at the airport only to get stopped by the drug squad to be strip searched, nice welcome! So make sure you get your cases and leave the airport as quickly as you can in a group and don?t dare to dress different!!!
Taxi to the hotel was 13 euros. Ask for a price list from the driver as they have set tariffs to different parts of the island, all reasonable prices.
On arrival at the hotel the main foyer is large, airy and all marble, nice and cool. The reception staff were very friendly and spoke good English.
The only problem with arriving late (2am after the search);is there is nowhere to get a drink as there are no facilities in the room or round the resort so be prepared and take something with you.
once you have booked in the porter takes your cases (and if your in the last block, you as well);, on a kind of golfing cart to your room.
The rooms are like any other hotel room, cleaned every day, beds made and towels changed. beach towels are available free of charge and plenty of sun beds, but if you want to get close to the main pool be prepared to get up earlier than the Germans to stake your claim with your towel, when we arrived we observed the towel ritual, at 3.30 am!!!!!
The resort is clean and tidy, not suitable for disabled though due to the amount of steps.
Up until now it has been leased to a German tour operator all this is set to change next season with major refurbishment of the rooms and a change of management so next season it will be readily available to the British market.
Still mainly Germans at the hotel at the moment so as you can imagine the Germans still think they own it!!!! Some are quite rude and seem to think they can reserve everything with a towel or handbag and jump queues if in a hurry.
The hotel staff are very helpful and friendly.
The food is ok like most other all inclusive hotels but gets a bit repetitive after a few days. The waiters are very efficient but may take your plate while you still have the cutlery in your hands, we did see the funny side though.
The hotel is on the arrivals flight path but I have to be honest it didn?t really bother us.
On the whole it?s a lovely clean hotel and right on the beach and plenty to keep the kids occupied.
The staff in the resort are friendly and helpful.

On a lighter note we did a daily video diary of the things we got up to whilst on holiday at this hotel, with some hints and tips which you will find amusing, we have posted it on youtube at the following address.
