I you are looking for a quiet relaxing stay this is the area for you. Benidorm it is not. The hotel was in a great location. A few shops five minutes walk away. The bus stop is also nearby and very reasonable fares. A very short walk across the road leads to the beach. A lovely walk along the front. The beach is a little stoney but clean and pleasant. The hotel was clean. Plenty of sunbeds (we went off season). The straw parasols had seen better days and offered little shade from the sun. Our room was large with a massive balcony. The hot tub was not working but in it's hey day the hotel was probably quite posh. The furniture was chipped and dated but for the price we paid all inclusive was what we expected. The food was plentiful and what you expect from a 3 star. I heard a few complaints from Brits but they were unfounded in my opinion. The staff spoke mainly Spanish although some had a basic knowledge of English but it is Spain. Luckily I have some basic Spanish and am not afraid to try it out. This is always appreciated so have a go. British are very lazy when it comes to languages we expect everyone to speak our language.

“Lovely week away”

We came for a week on 16th September and I must say we had a great week. Really relaxed. The hotel is lovely and clean and the food was very nice for all inclusive.

We came for a week on 16th September and I must say we had a great week. Really relaxed. The hotel is lovely and clean and the food was very nice for all inclusive. We never struggled with the staff speaking Spanish, they all understood what we wanted or was asking. The only reason I didnt give a 5 is because I think this place would really benefit from a little shop as the nearest shop is a 10 minute walk away. Also I think either a kettle in the room or even a vending machine for coffee and tea available 24 hrs would be great. Having to wait till breakfast opened at 8am to get a coffee was my only issue as I wake up early. I would return but would bring my own kettle.

“Nice hotel, most of the staff pleasant, mostly spanish speaking which we knew because been to the area several times. ”

I would have given 5 stars but the last day spoiled what was a lovely holiday. We were 14 nights all inclusive, arrived 11.45pm 12th Sept after a 2hour delay so no food, we asked for a late check out on leaving because flight was at 9.20pm, we paid €30, thought we would have a decent lunch to kee... more

I would have given 5 stars but the last day spoiled what was a lovely holiday. We were 14 nights all inclusive, arrived 11.45pm 12th Sept after a 2hour delay so no food, we asked for a late check out on leaving because flight was at 9.20pm, we paid €30, thought we would have a decent lunch to keep us going and we were turned away from the restaurant they said all inc finished at 12 noon, besides the humiliation we were upset the way we were spoken to really spoiled the day, have done all inc with two different hotels in the area with a late check out and lunch was readily available. Spoke to jet2 rep later that day, she spoke to a member of staff and told us it was a misunderstanding, that is not good enough, wanted to go back there in June but this episode has put me off.

Just returned from a week with my daughter and her 2 year old son,hotel was lovely and clean staff were great although the language barrier was difficult,but we are in Spain,food was nice restaurant was very traditional,rooms were nice spacious and clean,not a lot outside the hotel 2 small supermarkets restaurants and beach was 5 min walk,I would recommend this hotel to young families, not enough for older children,all entertainment was in Spanish which was fine,but music arounf pool area was around pool was too loud or kept going loud than quiet which was the only negative,when you have a sleeping toddler,evening dining wasn’t till 8 pm and kids mini disco didn’t start till late 10 pm and evening entertainment was even later 11 pm too late for us,but we had a quiet room overlooking golf course,if you want a pool holiday and have toddlers or young children and want a peaceful week then this is the hotel,maybe a little quiet outside hotel for us …

“OK if your Spanish! ”

OK let's get the bad bits out the way first the hotel is for the Spanish people, all the staff only speak Spanish which is ok for adults but my kids wanted to play the games around the pool but they could not understand what was going on so they missed out, also nighttime entertainment was all in Spanish, bingo was in Spanish, so again the children missed out, I know we are in Spain but it would be nice if at least 1 entertainment member could speak English. The entertainment team would only speak to the Spanish people mainly women and would pull English people's towels off the beds so the Spanish could have them for a backhanded fee off 5 euros ( I told the manager about this he was a really nice bloke and was the first person to speak good English so if you have a problem please ask for the manager. Entertainment team need to change or you will lose all the English clients. Dinner is to late 8pm til 1030pm crazy. There's no bars showing any sports football f1 not 1 or any English beers in this area. OK now for the good part, hotel is clean and nice, kids slides are good but don't run as its slippy. Food is OK apart from breakfast(no English sausage or bacon no fried eggs unless you waited in a cue of 50) Drinks are good. Five minutes to the beach not much around to be honest 2 small shops and 5 restaurants. We used the Indian which was good and the kebab shop which was very fresh and clean. All in all if your OK at speaking Spanish and love there food you will love it but we are a family from England that like to get involved and enjoy the entertainment but we could not understand Spanish so the kid's missed out my holidays are for my children to enjoy so I would not go again sorry just because kids from England need to be catered for.
