I tried to book Arte Vida for a large event of 30+ people however they seem utterly disinterested to help me in any way. I called over 5 times with the promise of a returned call. When I did reach the deputy manager, or whoever they say they are, they were unable to give me any information on bookings, private... More

We stayed here a few times and liked it so much we ended up getting married there, the rooms a quite basic but very clean and worth it when you open the door and get to walk out onto the most beautiful beach in the world More

We stayed two nights, sandwiching in an overnight trip to Morocco. We were there in October so anticipated wind and had no plans for actual swimming, so the children loved the beach. The hotel is right up the hill from the sand, so they were able to play and enjoy for hours while we sat and enjoyed the gorgeous scenery.... More

A fairly basic hotel ( just what we wanted ) but in a great location only stayed one night but wish we'd stayed another a relaxing spot overlooking the beach , sipping on a beer/wine . Restaurant not too bad. Enjoyed our stay More

If you want to stay on the beach at Tarifa - it doesn't get better than this. Situated ON the beach, you can leave your shoes in the room and head straight to the water's edge.

The bathroom was fine and the outdoor facilities (sun chairs etc.) were great. A few details are missing though, such as hangers and a bit... More

The stay at this hotel, in resume, was good (but it could have been better). Its a hotel with so many positive aspects and some negative ones, but as a the final evaluation, it worths. It has a beautiful localization (just in the beach), so it gives you the chance to go to bed listening the waves. It has a... More

I was in the hotel for 6 nights. The room was poor, the breakfast a disaster! The only good think in this hotel is the location and the quality of the food on the lunch and dinner time. More

This is a hotel for rich 'surfies'. Its bare-bones chic. Lots of little rooms in a row, facing the ocean on an open corridor. Everyone is very laid back, the rooms are pretty spartan but acceptable, just. There's lots of art on the walls, 'op' and 'pop' but nothing too inspiring. The best thing by far is to be able... More
