Residence Esmeraldo

“After reading horrible reviews, I am satisfied with staying in this hotel”

I stayed in Residence Esmeraldo for ten days at the beginning of July and I am satisfied. The good sides of the hotel are food, which was delicious, as well as very professional service in the restaurant. The room was very clean and nice. This hotel is situated only several minutes away from the beach, but I preferred other beaches in the area. My critique goes to the reception staff who either don't understand you or do not give you the right information and seem rather uninterested. Still, all the most important things in the hotel are done very professionally.

“Beautiful location, friendly staff ... will be definitely back”

I went there with my boyfriend as our first holiday together, so my hopes were quite high. The residence is about 1hr from the airport but is an easy journey as the views are so beautiful.

I went there with my boyfriend as our first holiday together, so my hopes were quite high. The residence is about 1hr from the airport but is an easy journey as the views are so beautiful. Public transport isn’t easy so we booked the transfer with the residence, which charged us 140 euro return. To be honest I first found it expensive but the service was perfect and would have cost us the same if we had rented a car. The apartment was basic, but spacious, clean and well equipped with kitchen appliances and accessories. They have charged also £26 euro to provide towels and sheets, but again I suppose this is fair when you rent an apartment. The receptionist was extremely polite and helpful in everything we needed. My boyfriend forgot his brand new super tech mobile phone on the transfer car but it was found and returned to us with no time. The beach is BEAUTIFUL and literary 10 minutes walk from the residence… they provide transfers to the beach very often during the day (you must pay 3 euro a day x person for the usage of the pool, beach transfers and animation either if you use or not) but we never used it. This is the perfect location for relaxation… if you are up for life night you won’t find there, but if what you want is just to relax there is the perfect spot. My only negative comments would be: there are only 2 markets nearby where you can buy your groceries and prices were quite high. Finally, don’t forget to bring a powerful repellent as there are some mosquito killers always ready to attack. But I can assure you that none of those negative points will stop me going back there in the early future.
