Club Hotel Shark

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant hotel with outstanding staff, but entertainment could be improved

We’ve just returned from a fantastic holiday at Shark Club Hotel, and overall it was a really enjoyable stay. The hotel itself is great, but what truly makes it stand out is the staff, who go above and beyond to make guests feel welcome.

A special mention has to go to David, Harry Potter, Adam, Ally and Nunu — what a team. They were consistently friendly, approachable, and always up for a laugh. Their energy and attitude really helped make the holiday memorable, and they are a real credit to the hotel.

We’d also like to give a very special mention to Peter, who regularly came around the hotel and was genuinely one of the loveliest people we met during our stay. He was always smiling, always happy to stop for a chat and always there to make you smile. He really added a personal touch to our holiday and made us feel so welcome.

Peter also has his own restaurant, Peter’s Place, which is definitely worth a visit! The food was absolutely wonderful and easily one of the highlights of our trip. Amazing food, a lovely atmosphere and Peter himself makes you feel so welcome. We would definitely recommend giving Peter’s Place a try while you’re there.

And then… there’s the animation. 😂

Chucky, where were you?! 👀

We genuinely spent more time wondering where the animation guy had gone than actually taking part in animation. 😂

During our stay, we witnessed aqua gym twice and water polo once at around 1:30pm. The rest of the daytime entertainment seemed to consist of Chucky promoting the bus to the beach and then apparently getting on an invisible one himself because… POOF 💨 — gone until nighttime! 😂

Forget aqua gym, the real daily activity was:

“Where’s Chucky?” 🔎😂

Then, like clockwork, around 9pm, he would suddenly respawn for approximately 30 minutes of a “game show”… and that was basically your evening entertainment done. 😂👏

But don’t worry, because before disappearing again we’d be reminded to meet in the lobby at 11:30pm to go to the bars.

There was just one tiny problem…

THE HOTEL BAR CLOSED AT 11PM. 😭😂

So apparently the final activity of the evening was a 30-minute endurance challenge called “Stand in the lobby and wait.” 😂

In all seriousness, this was the only disappointing part of our stay. There was so much potential for entertainment around the pool — music, games, competitions, quizzes, dancing, more aqua gym, literally anything to get everyone involved and create a proper holiday atmosphere. It felt like the animation programme finished before it had even started most days.

Thankfully, the rest of the staff completely made up for it. ❤️

That said, the positives far outweigh the negatives, and the staff truly made the holiday what it was.

Overall:

• Staff: 10/10 — absolutely outstanding ❤️
• Peter’s Place: 10/10 — wonderful food and highly recommended 🍽️
• Entertainment: 5/10 — definitely room for improvement

A massive thank you again to David, Harry Potter, Adam, Ally, Nunu and Peter for making our stay so enjoyable. You’re the people we’ll remember when we look back on our holiday! ☀️❤️

I have been to this hotel many times and I have always enjoyed it. The rooms are spotless and all the staff are so friendly and helpful, they helped organise a birthday cake and fireworks for his birthday. I can always find something to eat in this hotel and the snacks were good too. It is close to the busy part but far enough away not to bother you. The pool area is quite small but there are also plenty of seating area around. Would i go back - yes.
