Just returned from our third stay at this fabulous hotel, and once again it exceeded our expectations. We stayed in a sea view room on the 5th floor (Room 536), and the views were absolutely breathtaking. The hotel is spotlessly clean, and the rooms are spacious with an incredibly comfortable, huge bed. The bathroom is luxurious, with two showers, and every amenity you could need is provided, including robes, slippers, a beach bag, a sun hat, and even a lovely nightly treat. Breakfast was absolutely brilliant, with everything you could possibly want. There was an amazing selection of freshly baked bread, made-to-order omelettes, cereals, yoghurts, fresh fruit, pastries and cakes, along with so much more. If you wanted to start your day with a glass of fizz or even a beer, that was available too! Every member of staff was friendly, welcoming, and always smiling, making you feel valued from the moment you arrived. We loved spending time at the beach club and relaxing by the fantastic pool. The bar had a great atmosphere, and in the evenings we enjoyed strolling just a few streets away where there was a huge choice of excellent restaurants. To round off each evening, we headed back to the pool bar where there was live music from fantastic bands. It was the perfect way to end the night with a drink in such a lovely atmosphere. A real bonus is the large supermarket directly underneath the hotel, which stocks absolutely everything you could need during your stay. If you’re thinking of booking Hotel Solymar, don’t hesitate you won’t be disappointed. We can’t wait to return for our fourth visit! Thank you, Solymar, for another wonderful holiday

“Treat yourself”

Super location and hotel. The sea view room is exquisite. This is a 4 star hotel which should be 5 star. The staff go the extra mile for you. The food is fabulous and the entire hotel gives that touch of class. 2nd stay and it won’t be the last. 10/10 thank you 👌🥂

“You need to put this hotel on your bucket list. You cannot fault the hotel at all.”

Cannot fault this hotel. We have travelled a lot and it is one of the best hotels we have stayed in. Very clean a lovely smell throughout the hotel, things that normally irritate me were all catered for. Bright lighting in the bathroom, hairdryers that work well , plenty of storage space.

Cannot fault this hotel. We have travelled a lot and it is one of the best hotels we have stayed in. Very clean a lovely smell throughout the hotel, things that normally irritate me were all catered for. Bright lighting in the bathroom, hairdryers that work well , plenty of storage space. The food was excellent and well presented. We did not use the pool much but there is a lovely beach right in front of the hotel. The only recommendation I would make is the app has a little more information in. We had to ask where the pool is as it is not in the hotel and apparently they loan you parasols which we did not realise until we left. They have free Throughout the hotel. There was pop and water in your room when you arrive and some fresh fruit. The whole experience was excellent would definitely go again. Well done to every member of staff. There is a small tapas bar near the hotel where you get a free tapas everytime you order a drink and we found all of the bars / restaurants on the front to be very clean.

“Let Down by Sunbed Wars and Poor WiFi - I really wanted to give this hotel 5 stars, but unfortunately I can't!”

I really wanted to give this hotel 5 stars, but unfortunately I just can’t. The biggest issue is the ridiculous sunbed situation. Every morning, guests are made to queue in a corridor waiting for access to the pool and beach club area. It genuinely feels like cattle being held before being released. For an adults-only hotel marketed as a 4-star property, this is simply unacceptable and, quite frankly, embarrassing. There are simply too many guests for the number of sunbeds available, creating unnecessary stress and competition every single day. The WiFi coverage is also very poor and unreliable throughout the hotel, which is disappointing in 2026 when good connectivity should be standard. Finally, if you’re English, this hotel may not be for you. During the World Cup there was absolutely no English-language commentary for England matches anywhere in the public areas. The only way to watch the games with English commentary was to return to your room. I found that really disappointing. That said, there are plenty of positives. The beach club is excellent, spotlessly clean and in a fantastic location overlooking the beach. The rooms are modern, comfortable and immaculate, while breakfast offers a good selection with plenty of choice. The reception team deserve special praise, particularly the lovely Colombian lady who was professional, friendly and a real credit to the hotel. Check-in was smooth, and every member of staff we dealt with was polite and helpful throughout our stay. Overall, while the hotel has many strengths, the daily sunbed chaos and poor WiFi overshadowed the positives for us. In our opinion, this is a solid 3-star experience rather than the relaxing 4-star adults-only hotel it advertises itself to be. Would we return? Possibly, because the rooms and beach club are excellent. However, unless the sunbed situation and WiFi are improved, they would remain deal-breakers for us.
