Villas Arausana & Antonia

Good points Location - scenery stunning with restaurant and bar overlooking the sea Bar staff attentive and helpful Open kitchen in restaurant -ladies that cooked were always smiling and singing which was lovely to hear and see Food was really good Negative Points Hotel is not a 4 star it’s basic and clean and needs to be refurbished Sun beds On checking in we were told that there would be sun beds reserved arriving at the pool the following day my friends found that the beds has already been taken. After going back to reception they were given more beds only to have a very rude aggressive man at the pool getting into an argument with us and being told to go home you English and to shut up. Needless to say we didn’t go back to the pool again as we just could not face the hassle and drama.

We went there for 2 night stay. Hotel is nice, nothing special. I must say i hated beds. Every room have AC. Pool is near, and see beach too. Well its not like oridinary beach, its concreat hexagons. I realy didnt like that but ok. Food was GREAT. Over all we had nice stay.

It's a nice hotel in a great location (10 min stroll to lovely town centre), with a few areas that let it down. It's clean, but carpets really should go. Great weather, so needed the aircon on overnight but then needed a cover. a king size bed with a double duvet cover isn't ideal. Basic toiletries in room (no shower cap, shampoo, etc). Paid extra for a sea view, which was 90% obscured by huge trees, 10% of sea view visible when looking hard to the left! Safe is small. No pool towels! I emailed ahead to ask this, unhelpful response telling me to ring the hotel. No parasols! You have to choose between sunbeds in strong sun or in total shade under the trees. Sunbeds in the sun were mostly taken / reserved. Parasols would be really great. Breakfast was fab with amazing views. Had a couple of lunches at the hotel bar, food very good. had a couple of milkshakes (cherry and hazelnut) which tasted of just milk. No decaff coffee available at breakfast. but I had taken my own. Worse thing? We had a late flight home, 22:30.. no shower available once you've checked out at 10:00 (the in-room guide said 11:00, and we were told off!). This is really unacceptable. Everyone needs a shower after hanging around all day. I would return but a disappointing sea view option, they do need parasols, and they need shower availability before you head for the airport.

Do your best to book different accommodation. The hotel is packed with small children banging and screaming, rooms are unclean ( to say the least ) and outdated. The carpets are appalling ( stained and damaged, JFC remove them or at least deep clean them ), and the whole complex is due for a thorough renovation. The poolside toilet overflows almost every other day ( it is right next to the buffet restaurant and might pose a high health risk ). Sounproofing in rooms DOES NOT EXIST, you can hear literally everything. The entire staff tries terribly hard to compensate for all this, but it is obvious that they are at the end of their wits. To conclude...just don't

Very poor quality hotel, would say at the most a 2 star, no way is it 4 star. The facilities are basic, there were stains on carpets, stains on chairs in reception area and in the outside bar area; mould in the shower area. We were breakfast and dinner, very limited choice, buffet sat outside, uncovered. Regularly ran out of items at breakfast. Vodice is nice but would not recommend this hotel.
