Cabinas Marlova

We could reach several beaches in 10 or 15 minutes, sometimes less. My family and I were treated really well, and everything felt organized and quite clean. The rooms and shared areas were spacious and well equipped, and the pools were excellent.

The managers made a beautiful place feel like a prison. They watch everyone closely once you arrive, and by 9:45 they're already checking that people are back in their cabins. Kids aren't allowed to jump or play around in the pool because they say it wastes scarce water. Yet early in the morning, the owner makes a racket playing pool. So what are the rules? Such a shame, because the place itself is beautiful.

The pool was supposed to be kept clean, but there was lots of hair and bugs floating in it, and the cabin had plenty of cockroaches. The service was terrible too. After 10, you're not allowed to stay outside or even talk with your family on the balcony.

It felt more like a school camp than a vacation. After 10 pm, we couldn't listen to music or talk as a family without the man coming over again to tell everyone to be quiet. The rooms were uncomfortable for what they cost, and nobody cleaned during the four nights and five days we stayed. The location wasn't great either.
