DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL – FILTHY, UNSAFE, AND A COMPLETE DISASTER!
I recently booked a holiday through Thomas Cook, expecting a five-star experience. What I received was beyond shocking – this place is an absolute disgrace, and I urge everyone to stay far away from this so-called "luxury" hotel.
1. Filthy Rooms and Lack of Housekeeping
From the moment we arrived, it was clear the hotel had no standards of cleanliness. Although the room appeared clean initially, it was NEVER cleaned throughout our entire stay. The bed sheets were not changed even once, and the floors, balcony, and couch were filthy. We were essentially left to live in squalor for the duration of our holiday.
2. No Towels and Missing Amenities
To make matters worse, there were no bath towels in our room upon arrival. How can a five-star hotel fail to provide basic amenities? We asked for mugs to use in the room – something that should be provided without question – and yet, they never arrived. The service here is not just bad; it's non-existent.
3. Bed Bugs and Health Risks
We were horrified to discover that our room was infested with bed bugs. My entire family was bitten, causing discomfort and distress throughout our stay. I provided photographic evidence of the bites and the state of the room to the hotel and Thomas Cook via WhatsApp, but NOTHING was done. How is this level of neglect even possible in a hotel that claims to be five stars? Absolutely disgusting and completely unacceptable.
4. Contaminated Swimming Pool – A Health Hazard
An adult defecated in the children’s pool, and unbelievably, the hotel did nothing about it. The pool wasn’t cleaned, nor were guests informed of the contamination. We watched in horror as children continued to swim in the pool, completely unaware of the serious health risk. This is gross negligence at its worst.
5. Food Poisoning – My Whole Family Got Sick
If that wasn’t enough, my entire family got food poisoning after eating exclusively at the hotel. We suffered from severe diarrhea and vomiting during our stay, which was made worse by the fact that the hotel’s toilets were filthy and never cleaned. This is an extreme health hazard – the lack of cleanliness undoubtedly contributed to the spread of illness. It was a nightmare!
6. No WiFi and Terrible Connectivity
Don’t expect to stay connected while you’re here! The WiFi in the rooms is absolutely useless. The signal was so weak that we were left without internet access for the entire stay. How can a hotel in 2024 not provide basic WiFi access? This was a huge inconvenience and yet another failure on the part of this dreadful hotel.
7. Rude and Discriminatory Service
The buggy service was abysmal. I waited 20 minutes for a buggy, only to watch two families who arrived after me get prioritized by the driver. Despite being first in line, I was told to wait until they were dropped off. This type of discriminatory treatment is inexcusable, and it reflects the hotel’s complete lack of care for its guests.
8. Staff Were Incompetent and Rude
Most of the hotel staff were incredibly rude and unhelpful. On top of that, there was a major language barrier, as very few staff members could speak or understand English. This made it nearly impossible to communicate or resolve any of the numerous issues we encountered. The hotel’s disregard for customer service was appalling.
9. Emotional Distress – An Experience Ruined
I was so overwhelmed by the poor conditions and lack of care that I ended up crying in front of the hotel manager. Despite providing photographic and video evidence of the disgusting state of the hotel, they did NOTHING to fix the situation. I expected a relaxing holiday but was left dealing with stress, illness, and complete frustration. This place ruined our trip.
Final Warning
This hotel is falsely advertised as five stars when it doesn’t even meet the basic standards of hygiene, service, or safety. I have reported it to the appropriate health authorities and will be pursuing a refund through Thomas Cook. This was not a holiday – it was a nightmare.
Sunt aici cu soțul meu și cei doi copii și totul este bine până acum, priveliștea este uimitoare, plaja este minunată. Este o vacanță foarte relaxantă. Mulțumim tuturor, în special domnului Cagri pentru că ne-a ajutat tot timpul și s-a asigurat că ne distrăm.
