Amada Colossos Resort

This was an amazing resort, the staff were super friendly and it was all really nice & clean. The Mountain View from our room was great during sunset. The waterpark was a lot of fun, even for adults. The buffet food wasn’t amazing for vegetarians, but went down really well for my partner who ate meat. I think map or better signage would be helpful to show where all the amenities are as well as the schedule for the activities/shows.

We visited the hotel from July 18th to 25th. We had read comments about people getting sick, so we started the trip with some concerns. However, we spent practically the entire vacation on the hotel grounds, eating the hotel’s food, and none of us experienced any symptoms. We also didn’t notice anyone else feeling unwell. This was our second time at Amada Colossos, and once again, we were extremely satisfied. It’s an excellent place for families with children because everything is so easy—and unlike many other all-inclusive destinations, the snack options are varied and not just simple sandwiches or similar. Every trip comes with a certain risk of illness, that’s just the reality. One personal rule I stick to, in addition to good hand hygiene of course, is to never eat seafood abroad.

We stayed at Amada Colossos Resort from June 29 to July 8, 2025. We chose it with high expectations — the location looked good, the reviews were encouraging, and we were hoping for a peaceful, worry-free holiday. But instead, our vacation was ruined: we ended up spending half of it either seriously ill or trying to recover. What made it even more upsetting was the hotel’s complete lack of proper response — or any real concern at all. What was good (and there was some good!): To be honest, Amada Colossos Resort did have some really nice things going for it, especially at first. Our room was spotless, and we had a room on the top floor with a fantastic view of the sea and the pool area. The buffet food was genuinely good – tasty, well-prepared, and with lots of variety. Every evening had a different theme, and the desserts were excellent. Most of the staff in the restaurant and around the resort were friendly and welcoming. In the lobby bar, there was live music at night. I enjoyed sitting there before bed, just relaxing with my phone. And for anyone not drinking alcohol (like me), I recommend trying the Blue Ocean Limeade — good flavor and presentation. The on-site shop was a pleasant surprise. You’ll find essentials like sunscreen, flip-flops, inflatable beds, first-aid items, souvenirs and local sweets. Most importantly, the prices were surprisingly reasonable. Definitely worth checking out. In the evenings, there was some decent entertainment for both kids and adults. Disappointed: On July 1, the third day of our stay, I suddenly became severely ill — vomiting, diarrhea, and intense weakness. I never left the resort and only ate food provided at the hotel. By the evening, I felt much worse and my friend took me to the hospital. When he asked the reception to call a taxi to the hospital, their concern wasn’t my health — it was demanding immediate payment for the hotel doctor they had previously called to our room. At the hospital, I received IV fluids for almost six hours. During that time, we saw at least five(!!!) other guests from Amada Colossos being treated — just at that one hospital, on that one day. Clearly, this was not an isolated case. When I returned to the hotel late that night, the receptionist asked about the hospital visit and wrote something next to our room number in a large logbook. I noticed several similar entries highlighted in bright colors — likely referring to other hospitalized guests. And not a single person ever followed up to ask how I was doing on the next day. The next day, my friend became ill too, though his symptoms were less severe, and he stayed in the room. No one from the hotel contact us or offered help for the next three days. No information was offered, no precautions taken, no investigations into the cause and no steps to prevent further spread. Based on many reviews I’ve now seen online, dozens of people were affected during June and July, which makes the hotel’s lack of response feel negligent, if no
