TL;DR

Recent reports say the sandy beach has a limited selection: mostly a bar, fruit, ice cream, and sometimes pastries or fries, with some items possibly extra. The coral beach is better stocked, often with a small buffet including salads, hot dishes, vegetables, and fruit.

What the community said

As of July 22, travelers reported that on the coral beach the only free drinks are water, Fanta, cola, tea, and coffee — nothing else. On the sandy beach there is no food at all, everything is paid.

As of July 5, travelers reported that snacks on the sandy beach were very basic, while the coral beach had a small buffet with salads, hot dishes, fruit, and vegetables. It is much smaller than the main restaurant, but you can still have a proper bite there.

On June 28, travelers said there was food at the beach but with a limited selection; the quality was decent, and there were two coffee machines. Juice available on the way to the beach was believed to be an extra-charge item.

On June 23, guests reported that the beach mainly had just a bar, and the food was leftover breakfast pastries such as doughnuts and puff pastries. In other words, do not expect a full lunch directly on the sandy beach.

On June 21, the only specific free snack that got positive feedback was French fries at the beach. For guests who did not want a full meal, that was enough, but overall choice remained minimal.

On June 19, travelers specifically asked whether the beach kiosks serving baked potato, sandwiches, and shawarma were included, because the all-inclusive status was unclear. The discussion did not produce a clear confirmation that these items were free.

On June 16, guests were asking about non-alcoholic drinks and fruit: reports suggested drinks were available at the beach and fruit was served separately, but the popular juice that used to be praised may no longer have been offered.

On June 15, travelers said the sandy beach did not have proper snack food. Paid items mentioned were drinks, fruit, and ice cream, so it was better not to count on free food there beyond the most basic options.
