Alua Soul Carolina - Adults Only

Great Hotel. The staff are generally very pleasant and are all seemingly multilingual. I found all staff were polite and helpful. All rooms have a view of the pool/sea. I would suggest you request a higher floor for the best views. Beds are large and comfortable. The hotel is spotlessly clean. The hotel is in a quiet location if you’re looking to get away from everything. Some downsides: 1) We were all inclusive. The food is ok. It’s not very hot and I found that it wasn’t replenished quickly enough. 2) There aren’t enough tongs/serving utensils for the food meaning that people tending to have to use the same thing for multiple dishes. 3) One night, the grilled meat (which to be fair is cooked freshly) was labelled as ‘Secret Meat’. Even when staff were asked for more information, they would just smile and say “it’s a secret”. 4) I would avoid the shop directly across from the hotel. All of that said, I am planning to return to this hotel next year to recharge my batteries. Throughly enjoyed my short break here and would suggest that anyone would be hard pushed to find the overall experience negative.
