Pirates Village

Fantastic 1st holiday abroad with 4 children and two adults. Great location. Short walk to a lovely beach. Hotel was good. Staff friendly. Had the family suite room. Nice and big for us all. Only issues we had was with the bathroom and noise. The bathroom is only partly frosted, so others can see into the bathroom when in use. Fine with little kids but not older children. Towards the end of the holiday some other holiday guest were very loud late at night. Mostly drunk. Couldn’t hear any noise in the main room but could hear it in the children’s room. No fault of the hotel. Didn’t notice it until guest became very noise on the last two nights. Fantastic pool, deep in parts. Food was fine for us and there was a lovely waitress we used to talk to. Pizza was lovely. Pirates fantastic, great entertainment. I would highly recommend this.

Travelled in October with my partner and daughter. Stayed as all inclusive. I would rate this hotel as a three star for a few reasons: - Room not ready on arrival, had to wait hours which was not ideal with a small child that had been awake since 2am. They have a luggage room but people constantly in and out so you cant get changed in there. - Room was not cleaned as much as I would have liked, however towels were changed often. - The food was poor. Very repetative, warm, not much choice, struggled to get a seat sometimes at end of season so can't imagine it at peak times! Drinks weren't good either -cheap coffee, the fruit juices were like watered down sweet drinks. Desserts were the exact same every evening. The ice cream was a free for all with kids getting sprinkles and sauces everywhere. The snack bar is order only, is open long hours but its very poor quality meat being used. I would stay either self catering or half board and venture out to one of the resturants close by if i were you. - Entertainment was...bizzare. Like BTEC drama kind of thing. Very samey, although the kids seemed to love it, apart from mine who was completely traumatised by the Shaman show. I had to remove her and take her for a walk, she then refused to watch any shows for the rest of the week. The pirate attack in the day time however is great fun and well thought out. There is a firework show that is great....to start with but it goes on and on and on into the night, extremley loud when trying to sleep. This is accompanied by very loud drums close to the rooms. - Surfaces incuding stairs are very slippy when wet. - The people there are not the sort we usually associate with. Benidorm type - loud, drinking all day, swearing, smoking around the pool, leaving their kids unattended type. - People queing for sunbeds for over an hour when there are plenty. - pools not heated which in october is FREEZING. - Kids beds are pull out single beds in the kitchen/living area. Doesnt feel very nice, secure or homeley for the kids. - Safe didnt work. - The sea is dirty, not very good for snorkelling. Good points: - Themed hotel is amazing for detail, really is like a pirates village and they go all out for halloween, even dyed the pool red! was fantastic. - The rooms were like mini apartments and we had a cooker, fridge/freezer, kettles etc. I usually stay in normal rooms - however found having a mini kitchen really handy. - The beds are really comfortable - memory foam. Amazing pillows too. - Lots of storage for clothes and suitcases. - Staff are all very friendly and polite. - Location wise: perfect. Shorter transfer than jet2 state, town is right outside the door. To the right is the most amazing market type shop owned by an Asian family. They sell absolutley everything and so cheap. There is also a supermarket just up the road. To the left, the town with lots of shops and resturants, also har braiders there. Bus stop two minutes away. Bus and trains really cheap, frequ

We booked the pirate village for 3 nights over the Halloween break and I have to say this was by far the best halloween expeiance for us as a family. Firstly, I would like to thank the pirate village for accomadating us following our flight getting cancelled from Belfast on the Saturday night. When we eventually arrived on the Monday the the pirate's vilage who were aware of the situation kindly extended our stay until the Thursday, meaning my 6yr old got to join in on the Halloween party which she thouroughly enjoyed. I'm not a fan of all-inclusive hotels following bad experiance's elsewhere, but the food and beverages here was of excellent quality. Secondly, the entertainment at night was absouloutly amazing, the best I have seen. Thanks again Pirate village we'll see you next year. The Begley family, Belfast, Ireland.
