Bluesun Mala Berulia

Once we were in a different room, the stay improved and we could enjoy the facilities. The hotel should deal with the mouldy smell problem, which seems to happen regularly. We had to put up with it until day two because the hotel was full. They weren’t very apologetic. For the amount these rooms cost, it isn’t acceptable to sell one in that condition and make guests go through the hassle of moving. The pool areas are lovely, and there’s direct beach access from the bottom of the hotel. Beach sunbeds cost extra. Breakfast had what we needed, though the orange juice came from a cheap machine and could have been fresher. The omelette maker was super friendly and made a great omelette. The dinner buffet was decent, with enough choice to fill up, and staff kept topping things up. Parking can be tricky because there isn’t much space. If it’s full when you arrive, park by reception. They move the car to a nearby garage and bring it back when you need it, like a valet service, and charge for that too. There’s a promenade along the beach at the bottom of the hotel, with nearby bars and restaurants. The gym was decent, with cardio machines, free weights, a squat rack, and a cable machine. It’s a lovely, relaxing location among the trees. We were lucky to change rooms, though the initial problem really put a damper on things.
