Bungalow vieillissant tant extérieur que pour le mobilier Bar : la formule tt compris n’apporte qu’une sélection de cocktail et alcool mais de qualité moyenne Piscine : forme agréable mais autant entretenue qu’attendu pour un 5* - Épine de pain dans la piscine, bain de soleil tous taché. Doit mieux faire. Plage : très belle

Les +: le site, le lodge très spacieux, la plage magnifique. Les -: - l'organisation de l'hôtel beaucoup trop compliquée, le système de paiement par carte même si c'est inclus, les systèmes de réservation variables selon les restaurants selon les services, le vin gratuit au bar mais pas à table, la serviette de bain de la piscine qui ne peut pas être emmenée à la plage,... Le personnel est très bien mais on leur demande de gérer cette usine à gaz et les clients ne comprennent pas le fonctionnement de l'hôtel - mauvais enregistrement de mon nom dans leur systeme m'interdisant toute reservation - les équipements du lodge, le coffre ne marchait pas à notre arrivée, il manque une lampe de chevet, le WC coule, la clim qui s'arrête au bout de 12h, la clim qui est réglée à 18 par les femmes de ménage, une sonnerie breve qui nous réveille toutes les nuits à 2h du matin jusqu'à ce qu'on déconnecte tous les équipements - le restaurant de plage non inclus dans le tout inclus - le panier repas Sea Box, pourrait être bien s'il n'était pas tous les jours le même .

A good 3 star hotel. But absolutely not 5 star as advertised. Needs investment to bring it up to the level it is advertised as.

Simply our favorite place. We are an extended family made up of two grandparents, three families, and kids ranging from 10 to 17 years old, and for the past ten years, we’ve chosen Alborea Eco Lodge as our summer holiday destination. Every time it confirms our love for it—and every time, it’s hard to leave. Once again this year, the nautical activities were a big hit, especially with the kids, who enthusiastically took part in windsurfing, sailing, and canoeing. The food this year was perhaps the best we’ve had in the past ten years. A sincere thank-you and congratulations to the entire kitchen staff. A special mention goes to the Zurawski Band, whose live music created truly beautiful moments, adding a touch of quality and atmosphere to the already engaging entertainment offered by Bluserena’s amazing Dream Team. The resort staff is impeccable—kind, helpful, and always attentive to guests’ needs, from the reception team to the dining room staff, the bar crew, and the shuttle drivers. A lovely new addition this year was Gianmarco, the photographer, who, with great professionalism and discretion, managed to capture the most beautiful moments of our vacation. We highly recommend taking the time for a personalized photo session with him—a truly special memory to take home. For us, Alborea is much more than just a destination: it’s a tradition, a family ritual, a place where every year we find warm hospitality, nature, comfort, and genuine beauty.

Seul le bar me laisse déçu, un membre du personnel désagréable et pas de carte pour choisir le type de boisson que l’on désire
