The hotel staff was actually nice. At least you do what they want. The people at the reception were the only ones who made an effort. Unfortunately not the animation. Everyday you were forced to do some silly animation. The best of all was that you had to pay for some like Henna- Tattoo and massage. I made a massage once and it was really fine. But it was not cheap with the explanation: “in Germany you pay certainly 10 EUR more”. The Henna- guy was offended after we made clear that we didn’t want a Henna even on the third day and that we only want to rest.

Annoying was that everybody hugged you. Every time when I was outside alone without my husband someone came and addressed me “hello, how are you?” and in the next moment there was a arm around my shoulder. I’m not uptight. But I really don’t like this from people I don’t know very well. Anyway there were some Russian girls in the hotel who enjoyed it. Even if the boys set on them on the beach. The girls’ fathers found that funny, too.

They paid no attention to the common animation except that they played loud music for the people at the beach and in the evening they did some performance which was so boring that only ten people attended it. During the day there was some stretching in the blazing sun. Other sport offerings I didn’t notice.
But the cleaning personnel were very orderly because not only the rooms were always very clean but also the whole complex. And these were not so brash.
