This is a five star hotel, but not in the way I would expect. More like a huge city with a whole bunch of appartments. Really huge. But there is no intimacy of five star hotels. Rooms are fine, cosy, terasses, long, long walk to the restaurant, pools, (we were the last room in one of the hotel wings).
Pools are great, for kids especially. Mini golf, tennis, bars, gym, beauty treatment, night club, party for kids with animation for kids and band for adults sitting next to kids playing around and enjoying drink, so a lot of activities.
The food us amazing. Plenty of everything really. Amazing. Next to restaurant is playgrojnd so you can eat and watch kids.
All in all nice place for famillies with kids.
If you want something more quiet haha don't come here, cause you will flip out.

Our family (two adults, one toddler, and one baby) had a wonderful week at this hotel in January. Overall, I would rate it a strong 4-star resort, with some room for improvement before it truly feels like a 5-star experience.
My 2.5-year-old son absolutely loved the slides and the mini disco. The pool water was well heated, which made swimming enjoyable for all of us. During winter, the mini disco takes place indoors; however, I found it quite loud, and the large screen behind the animator felt unnecessary. My son was constantly distracted by the visuals on the screen rather than engaging with the dancing.
The baby club was fantastic, and the staff there were truly excellent. The baby club caters to children from 4 months to 4 years and is booked via the hotel app, which you receive access to at check-in. During our stay, it was open from 11:00–13:00 and 14:00–16:00. Each child could be booked for one free hour per day, but parents could access the baby club room freely during opening hours. The mini club and junior club (ages 4–12) follow similar hours, but children can stay for the full four hours (with a one-hour lunch break). Overall, the resort is absolutely perfect for children aged 4–12—there is so much for them to do.
I had requested a room in a specific area of the hotel and was very pleased that my request was honored. The room layout is ideal for families. Even the most basic room is essentially a suite. I especially appreciated the L-shaped sofa, which cleverly converts into a bed on one side while remaining a sofa on the other. Housekeeping was impeccable. Coffee refills were generous and free (you just need to request them at reception). The hotel provided a crib for our newborn daughter and even installed safety barriers on the sofa bed so our son wouldn’t fall out—small details that made a big difference.
The kitchenette area was also very convenient, equipped with a fridge, microwave, sink, kettle, and Nespresso machine. That said, the master bed could use an upgrade: the mattress wasn’t very comfortable, and I was disappointed that it consisted of two single beds pushed together with separate sheets. I asked for a proper double sheet, but unfortunately, this wasn’t available.
The breakfast buffet was extensive, offering a wide variety of options. Personally, I would have preferred fewer choices with higher quality—such as homemade breads and cakes, better-tasting fruit, and higher-quality coffee and cappuccino. Also, the opening time of 8-1030 was a little late for our early rising toddler, we would have preferred breakfast to open at 7.
Overall, we had a fantastic stay. Despite a few areas for improvement, we thoroughly enjoyed our week and would definitely consider returning.

We had a wonderful week long stay at GF Victoria with our family, including two children aged three and four.
The pool setup is excellent for families. The kids’ pool has toddler appropriate slides as well as bigger slides that older children and adults can enjoy. There is also another pool on the second floor which is deeper, with a very shallow, gently sloping entry that works perfectly for playing safely with younger toddlers.
Breakfast was outstanding. A fantastic buffet with fresh omelettes, pancakes, fruit juices, a wide selection of pastries, eggs cooked in various ways, sausages and much more. Easily one of the best hotel breakfasts we’ve had.
We ate at the Amaina Restaurant on two separate evenings and the food was delicious both times. The service was excellent, with very attentive staff who really made a fuss of the children, which made the experience even better.
The mini disco and evening entertainment were decent. I’ve seen better elsewhere, but the staff were friendly and enthusiastic, which made up for it. The kids’ club is very well run and our four year old absolutely loved it.
Facilities are a big highlight. Squash, padel, table tennis and tennis courts are all easy to book and use via the app. The mini golf could do with a revamp, but it’s still perfectly playable. The gym is exceptional for a hotel gym, genuinely one of the best I’ve seen. The spa looked amazing too, although we didn’t get a chance to use it this time.
The rooms are top class. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms made it feel spacious, with plenty of storage for a family of four. Everything was very clean and housekeeping were excellent throughout our stay.
Overall, this really is a top hotel and we would highly recommend it to families. We will definitely be back.

Really nice resort, particularly for families. The suites are well maintained and a decent size. The children’s activities are outstanding, including multiple pools and play rooms, and an hour a day of free childcare is a lovely touch. The childcare was excellent, particularly shout out to Mica and her colleagues in the baby room who were so lovely with our little one.

Grest family hotel. Good kids facilities. Buffet food changes every evening. Other pools other than kids could be heated too. Rooms are from 2018 and need refubrishment.
Highlight is bar on top of the hotel. Great views and drinks.
Another highlight was Donnaire Michelin starred restaurant - worth it and lives up to the quality. In-hotel guests get a discount.
