Just got back home after a 10 day stay, very clean and tidy hotel, room cleaned daily if required. Plenty of sun beds available as they put notices on peoples beds who put towels down and don’t go back as they remove them (great idea), plenty of food choices available for both myself a meat eater and my husband a vegetarian and I loved the food theme nights. One of the best hotels we’ve stayed in over visiting the area for the last 5 years. Entertainment was average but you can’t please everyone, we will definitely be back next year as it’s our 30th wedding anniversary next year thank you for a great stay 🙂 would 100% recommend this hotel to friends and family ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Last day of a fantastic week at the sol hotel don pablo We stayed in a superior room on 6th floor overlooking the pool area. Hotel is right on the beach front in very central location. Lovely modern rooms and bathrooms. Pool areas are amazing with plenty of sun beds. Could take our pick every day. No queues and very spacious between beds. Food is first class. Last night was Mexican night and was best hotel food we have ever had. The bar has happy hour every day between 5-6 pm and included branded spirits and cocktails and bottled beers and draught too. Staff were very friendly too. We will definitely return to this hotel.

Just returned from a short stay - lovely hotel and holiday! Good location to beach and lots of shops and bars close by if you want to venture out and about. Lots of positives and very few negatives however these may influence what you would want in your holiday. Hotel was clean and room was spacious enough for a family of 4. Beds were very comfortable and bathroom was very good. We didn’t have any issues locating sunbeds - there was always somewhere to get some. We only stayed bed and breakfast but the selection and availability for breakfast was fantastic. We also think the hotel bar and pool snacks were reasonably priced for such a hotel. Staff were very helpful and polite. Although this hotel was lovely, there were a few things that would prevent me booking in future - We had a family room on the 9th floor, we didn’t have a balcony, which was something we missed having, particularly as our children are older now and that risk has decreased. (we didn’t actually ask to be relocated so hotel didn’t have a chance to rectify and they may have been able to). It is a very big hotel, lots of lifts, walking distance from pool to room is a bit of a day trip if you forget to bring something down 🤣 at busy times we felt we waited ages to get moving. I felt the pools were small for the size of the hotel - a large one at top seemed to naturally be for adults and the smaller one had families and children in and around. One thing that really annoyed me was that between 11-1/2 both pools were taken up with adult activities. children had to come out the pool so that the adults could do polo or exercise. This happened in both pools - surely a better way would to just make activities longer in the big pool and keep the smaller available for children to play, Particularly as it’s a family hotel and another on site is adult only anyway. Overall hotel is lovely and we had a great time, but I would prob avoid if you have children who don’t want to be in a kids club, you have mobility issues or want something a little smaller and quieter from your holiday experience.

We have just returned from our stay and, overall, had a lovely holiday. My Spanish isnt fluent, but I do make an effort, especially as this was our second return to the hotel, but a regular visitor to Espana. The hotel has many positives and I hope the following feedback is taken as constructive because with a few improvements, it could be an even better experience. The location is excellent, the facilities are well maintained, and the grounds are always clean and tidy. The pool area is kept clean; however, the sun loungers would really benefit from a thorough deep clean as they are beginning to show signs of heavy use and not early risers claiming with their towels, needs to have better control. The restaurant team deserve special recognition. They work incredibly hard every day preparing and serving food with a smile. I often noticed guests who didn't speak Spanish walking away without even saying thank you, so I wanted to make a point of recognising their efforts. ¡Muchas gracias por vuestro trabajo y dedicación! The team truly are a credit to the hotel. The entertainment team were fantastic. Olivia was brilliant, and although I can't remember the name of the young lady with the long dark hair who led the stretching and dance sessions, she was equally amazing. José's spin classes were excellent too, along with the rest of the entertainment team. We really enjoyed celebrating España winning the World Cup on the night; it was thoroughly deserved, and the entertainment team did a superb job. ¡Sois fantásticos! Gracias por hacer nuestras vacaciones tan divertidas. The housekeeping staff were always friendly and worked hard, and the security staff were consistently welcoming, always greeting guests with a smile when leaving and returning to the resort. The lady who takes the professional photographs was also lovely. Reception was a mixed experience. One receptionist was exceptional and deserves recognition. We had an early departure and needed an early breakfast arranged, and she couldn't have been more helpful—thank you. Unfortunately, another interaction wasn't as positive. Housekeeping prepared our room for three guests but forgot to leave the third towel. We only realised late in the evening and asked reception for an additional towel. Instead of simply providing one, we were questioned repeatedly about why it had been missed. My response was, "¿Por qué te pones así por una toalla?" ("Why are you making such a big deal over a towel?"). It felt like an unnecessary interrogation over a very simple request. Small issues like this can leave a lasting impression, and I hope reception staff are encouraged to focus on resolving problems rather than questioning guests. One suggestion for improvement would be sustainability. The hotel encourages guests to reuse pool towels by charging an additional €1 for replacements, which is understandable from an environmental perspective, but I do think if you are their for a week or so this should be changed automatically. However, for a hotel promoting sustainability, it was surprising that there wasn't a free filtered water refill station available. Installing water refill points would significantly reduce single-use plastic bottles, improve the guest experience, and better reflect the hotel's environmental goals. Overall, I can understand why this hotel is marketed as a four-star property. The majority of the staff are genuinely wonderful, hardworking, and deserve recognition. There are just a few small details that, if addressed, would elevate the experience even further. ¡Gracias a todo el personal por vuestro esfuerzo y hospitalidad! Hemos disfrutado mucho de nuestras vacaciones y esperamos volver algún día.
