TL;DR
Building 2 is considered the most convenient — close to the waterpark and relaxation pool, with sea and yacht views available. Buildings 9, 10, 11 offer deluxe sea view rooms. Building 1 is well-located near the pool, sea, and restaurants.
Guests like sea-view rooms on the 1st floor in Buildings 5 and 6, but as of autumn 2025 only the exterior walls had been renovated — the interior of the rooms was still old and worn.
According to guest experience, room renovations so far only cover first-line buildings and those near the lobby (with glass balconies) — even a garden-view booking can end up with a sea view but in a worn-out room.
Building C (adults-only) — 1st floor room with terrace, view of a neighboring wall, but literally a one-minute walk to the beach.
Building 2, 4th floor can offer rooms with sea and yacht views. These rooms have a shower (not a bathtub) and have been renovated. Key cards reportedly don't demagnetize, and water is supplied generously.
Garden-view rooms can be poorly located within the resort. It's worth checking your booking category in advance and requesting a move to Building 1 if needed — it offers pool and sea views with easy access to restaurants.
Building 2 sits between the waterpark and the relaxation pool, making it very conveniently located. Buildings 9, 10, and 11 are the deluxe sea view blocks. Buildings near reception (like Building 2) tend to be superior category; others are likely deluxe.
A standard room in a building further from the sea (e.g., 2nd floor) is perfectly acceptable — normal ceiling height and corridor. The view may be of the hotel staircase with a partial sea and adult pool view, but quality is comparable to sea-facing buildings.
