The hype
Great location and pools, but the food gets boring fast and the service can be indifferent.
Justiniano Deluxe Resort Hotel
$70-120/ noite
Reservar se You want a budget-friendly Mediterranean beach break and don't mind trading luxury service for a lower price tag.
Por Que As Pessoas Adoram
- Direct access to a private sand-and-pebble beach cove
- Spacious rooms, especially in the main building
- Walkable distance (10-15 mins) to Alara Grand Bazaar for shopping
Resumo Rápido: A '5-star' resort on paper that delivers a solid 3-star experience with repetitive food, paid Wi-Fi, and a distinct preference for Russian-speaking guests.
Revisado por @passportbabee: I stayed here for three days for only £385 and the aesthetics were honestly 10/10. The ocean views and pools are crazy beautiful, though you should know 'all-inclusive' here still means paying for WiFi!

Reality check
Don't expect true luxury—complaints about 'rusty furniture,' 'moldy bar fridges,' and 'stray cats in the restaurant' are common.
- You are on a tight budget but want a beachfront resort
- You enjoy a lively, loud pool atmosphere with animation teams
- You plan to spend most of your time at the beach or Alara Bazaar

- Housekeeping: Hit or miss. Daily surface clean is standard, but deep cleaning (under beds, corners) is often missed.
- Bathroom hygiene: Functional but aging. Reports of 'hanging air vents,' 'rusty fixtures,' and occasional mold in grout.
- Maintenance: Shows wear and tear. Peeling paint, broken lights, and 'rusty furniture' are common complaints.

- Odors & scents: Lobby smells fine; some rooms have musty/damp smells or lingering cigarette smoke.
