I loved this hotel and my stay. This is our second visit to this hotel. First time was July 2018 and then this week. We stayed for 3 nights with half board (breakfast and dinner). This was a spontaneous trip, my partner booked it the day before arrival as we are only 40minutes away. TLDR: great hotel, lovely staff, great pool areas and restaurant. Cold breakfast and sometimes slow service at the bars. Location: It's not really close to anything, so if you don't have a car, to get out and about you would need to taxi. The beach is across the motorway, I drove so not sure if its safe to walk there. Parking: 3rd party booking site said there was no parking available, I was worried about this as there was an underground carpark in 2018. On arrival I checked, and there is underground parking at €10 per night. I feel that's quite reasonable. Room: We had a deluxe double. This had a pool view, which they had upgraded us to on arrival. It was a nice room, clean, nice towels and plenty of the expected toiletries. The bed was hard. Not an issue for me, but my partner struggled, so something to bear in mind! Safe was available at no extra charge, which I always like to see! Alot of places charge for this! Complimentary water in the room (small bottles), but a nice touch. TV didn't have much choice, only Spanish channels. Pool and pool bar: Pool area is great, nice sunbeds and plenty of parasols. The bar opens at 12:30 (I think!). Snacks are quite expensive and probably not what I would call 'snacks', we are talking club sandwich/burger, main meals and some tapas type dishes. We did eat twice at the pool bar. No issues, food was fine (but a little pricey €14 for a club sandwich and chips). You can find yourself waiting to be served, as seems the staff are trying to cover other areas of the hotel at the same time. A large beer was €4. They had a good selection of cocktails available, but I didn't try these. Lobby bar: They seemed to have a good selection of wines etc. My partner drinks semi sweet white wine (🤢) and they had an option for him. I'm a brut cava kinda girl, and they had that available by the glass... only issue was there was no flutes available, and mine was served in a red wine glass so was flat in 5 minutes! I'd seen the previous barman open the bottle not more than 2 hours before, so it wasn't the bottle that was the issue. But anyway, who wants cava in a red wine glass? Barman was happy to source me a flute (from downstairs in the restaurant) and replaced my flat cava for a fresh one, so no complaints there! There is an issue here though. The barman is also helping in the restaurant downstairs. Both times I went to the lobby bar, I had to ask reception to call him up for service. Restaurant: The restaurant wasn't very busy during our stay. There is a set menu, starter, main and pudding. Starters are not quite what you would expect a starter to be... think Spanish 'menu del dia', so if you get a salad it's the size you'd expect for a main! Every bit of food we ate in the restaurant was beautiful! Perfectly cooked fish, pork cheeks and the ox tail croquettes were to die for! We throughly enjoyed every meal. Breakfast: Here there is definitely as issue. The hot selection, is cold. I'm not talking luke warm, it's cold. I could put my fingers on the hot plate and not get burnt. Aside from this, coffee is okay, not the best but does the job. The selection of cheeses, cured meats and bread is great. Staff: Very, very friendly! Reception, bar staff, house keeping all very pleasant and cant do enough for you! To finish: Please do your research before staying here... as it may not be what you are expecting. There is no tea/coffee facilities in the room, and it's not beach front. They don't claim either of these to be true on their website or 3rd party booking sites. I say this as someone that stayed here 5 years ago and didn't check 🙈 Would I stay here again? YES Would I recommend to friends/family? YES Sent from Outlook for Android…
