Gloria Serenity Resort

FOOD: was really good! Especially at the a-la-carte restaurants! GOLF COURSE: very nice golf course

1. POOR PRICE-VALUE compared to other hotels. We divided our stay into two different hotels. Maxx Royal and Gloria Serenity (both hotels cost same price!). Gloria was clearly a downgrade. Most of the restaurants/bars were closed down, very limited offering. It felt like a total different world compared to MAXX Royal (really great hotel, vivid and great full offering!) 2. INTERIOR: quite outdated and 90’s - needs an update. 3. OFFERING: We stayed beginning of November at the hotel. The Winter offering is very limited at Gloria Serenity. Beach was shut down (even the sun was shining whole week and we had 22-24 degrees). Most of the restaurants were closed, no open-air bars. Nothing! Can't judge the summer offering, I guess that's better! But the price winter/summer are almost the same, I would have expected a decent price reduction to justify their very limited offering. 4. NOT VERY FAMILY FRIENDLY: everywhere 'adults-only places'. I didn't felt welcome with my son at the hotel. E.g. Buffet restaurant: Nice area with day-light (next to window) - adults only. The others had to sit next to the corridor, felt more like an airport hall. Some a-la-carte restaurants allow only once per week kids. Again adults only! 5. VERY CONSERVATIVE MANAGEMENT: there are everywhere too many rules. Like a-la-cart restaurant can be booked only 2 days in advance, if you cancel, you have to pay penalty, at some restaurant adults only etc. When I go for vacation, I'd like to switch off and feel comfortable.
