TL;DR
Fish is served daily (grilled or in sauce), but shrimp is not available. Fruit selection is decent. Meat is plentiful and not overcooked.
A guest who returned in early July was satisfied with the food and did not go hungry. Red fish (salmon/trout) was available but not every day. No exclusivity should be expected — it is a standard all-inclusive five-star without gourmet touches.
A critical review from a guest: no proper chicken or fish available, but offal (liver, hearts) is always present. The shawarma meat was overcooked.
A guest who relocated from another hotel noted: chicken, lamb, mashed potatoes, rice, and eggplant are all decent. The restaurant is cramped and seating can be hard to find.
At the hotel's Italian restaurant, the seafood risotto received a strongly negative review — the guest advises against ordering it. The atmosphere was praised and the price was considered fair overall.
Multiple guests are asking whether seafood (shrimp, mussels, paella with seafood) and proper meat (steaks) are available at this hotel in 2026, but no firsthand answers from recent guests have appeared in the discussion.
Practical tip for hotel research: always check the date of buffet reviews — opinions from 2024 and 2026 can differ drastically. Look for recent reviews from May or June of the current year, as food quality at a given hotel can change significantly over time.
During a recent stay: no shrimp available at all. Fish is on the menu daily in varying preparations — grilled or in sauce, quality varies. Fruit selection includes oranges, apples, pears, bananas, watermelon, and tangerines. Staff is not particularly friendly, especially at the pool bar. Entertainment is weak, but overall a pleasant stay.
A different guest disputes negative food reviews: never encountered overcooked meat, and fish and meat portions are adequate. Overall rates the hotel very highly.
One traveler who researched reviews before booking noted: a 5-star hotel shouldn't limit protein options to just chicken. Fresh salmon or sashimi isn't expected at this price point, but locally farmed trout should be on the menu. Cutting corners on food early in the season is a red flag. Recommends raising food quality concerns with hotel management or reception.
