happens to be one of the most important things that makes a
difference. Our purpose is to convert our guests into regular
guests by offering them a vacation beyond their expectation
by organizing activities for every age group, and by having

by this way and by filling our guests’ vacations with awe

come to the fore as the second of the differences created.
The thoughts and the comments on the garden in the guest
questionnaires we conduct every week happen to be 90% in
favor, and this simply supports the argument. Investments
have been made at our facility with regard to the capacity
increase and the areas used since 2004. To put it briefly:
In the beginning there was only one pool. But, later, we
added a roof pool for the adults, and a pool with slides for
the children. So now, we have three pools. We also reached
the capacity of 410 rooms, a 21% increase, by adding 52
new family rooms, and increasing the number of suites
from the existing 18 to 36 by repartitioning them.
In parallel with the increasing capacity, an additional section
has been added to the restaurant quarters. And finally, a
solar energy system made of 196 panels was installed for
energy saving purposes in the winter of 2009.
What are your expectations and goal for 2009?
In 2009, maintaining the price-quality balance; keeping the
guest satisfaction at the highest level; increasing the guest
potential; moving our preferability higher and this way
raising our prices and profitability higher by being among
the first 10 facilities at the agencies’ make up our main goal.
