Just returned from a weekend at the Tarik, 2 friends escaping for the weekend and this was a great find. Pro’s Never any sun bed wars! We have been down anywhere from 10am (when pool opens) to 11am and easily got a sun bed. Lovely pool, clean and well looked after Sundeck - fab area and loved the new sun beds with face shades on! Cocktails - happy hour 5-7pm every night at which point 7 euro a cocktail. My personal favourite the ‘Tarik’ - yum! And Luis was such a friendly face, we had a chat a couple of days, shame we didn’t get to say goodbye as he wasn’t around on Sunday. We tried cocktails elsewhere and both agreed the hotel cocktails were the best! Perfect location - literally overlooking the beach and plenty of food choices nearby. Noise - not once did we hear any noise from others entering the hotel, so peaceful at night and the balcony door blind made it pitch black so much easier to sleep. Con’s The only ‘con’ was the grassy area around the pool, personally we both thought would be better as Astro or the slabs they had around the pool itself, so the little birds kept coming down to hunt for food and then kamikaze fly at you on the way back up (I’m laughing writing this! It wasn’t that bad, but do think without the grass would stop this)

“Management bad attitude spoil your stay !!!”

The hotel itself is beautiful. It is exceptionally clean, the grounds are immaculate and very well maintained, the pool is excellent, and both the restaurant and breakfast are outstanding. The facilities truly deserve high praise. Unfortunately, what should have been an excellent stay was overshadowed by the attitude of parts of the reception and management team. Although they often present themselves as friendly, the kindness feels superficial, and several interactions came across as dismissive and rude. I would like to especially recognize Inma, who was consistently warm, professional, and genuinely kind. She made us feel welcome throughout our stay. Barbara was pleasant, although our interactions with her were limited. Dino, the manager, appeared courteous, but our overall experience with management was disappointing. The most unacceptable interaction was with Oscar. One morning, while the area around the pool was being watered, he approached us and loudly told us not to walk through it. His tone was unnecessarily aggressive and disrespectful, making us feel embarrassed rather than simply informed. A polite explanation would have been far more appropriate. Overall, this is a lovely hotel with beautiful facilities, excellent food, and a relaxing atmosphere. However, the poor attitude and lack of professionalism shown by parts of the reception and management team—particularly Oscar—left a lasting negative impression. A hotel of this quality deserves customer service that reflects its otherwise excellent standards.

“A beautiful hotel with great character, but let down by one disappointing experience”

This hotel really is lovely and full of history. The design feels almost like a Roman villa, with the pool set in the centre and the building wrapping around it. My room was comfortable, although unfortunately my balcony overlooked the staff area, with bins and a view of the road. Judging by the other rooms, I suspect I was given one of the less desirable locations in the hotel. The pool area was a highlight — split levels, plenty of sunbeds, and an upper solarium offering fantastic views across the beach and out to the sea. Staff throughout my stay were generally very helpful, and breakfast, while a small selection, was fresh and enjoyable. The only issue came on the day I checked out. With no late check‑out available, I stored my bags and sat outside in the café/bar area to finish some work. I had a tin of Coke I’d bought the day before, and since I couldn’t take it through airport security, I decided to drink it while sitting in the sun. I planned to order lunch and drinks later, as I had a few hours to spare. Within minutes, a staff member approached and told me I couldn’t drink my own drink in the public areas of the hotel — only in my room. I explained I had already checked out, but she returned again shortly after and repeated the same instruction, telling me I would need to leave. I admit I became frustrated at this point and asked her to get the manager. She walked away and never returned. It was a shame, as it genuinely spoiled what had otherwise been a pleasant stay. Out of principle, I chose not to order lunch or drinks from the hotel after that and instead went to a restaurant across the road. Overall, the hotel itself is charming, with great facilities and helpful staff, but that final interaction left a disappointing impression.
