For context, I am 6 months pregnant and stayed at Abora for 10 nights with my husband and our 17 month old daughter in late April - early May 2026. We booked a package with Jet2. The corridors are a little tired-looking at first blush, but our family room was spacious and clean. A travel cot (with bedding!) had been set up for us as well as a play tent and a toy, which was a nice touch. The room was cleaned daily to a good standard. We stayed in the block furthest away from the main reception, close to the children’s splash park. There was a little noise at night time from the bars across the road, but with the doors shut it was fine. The main negative was that the bed is made up of two singles pushed together. This was surprising for a family room and it really was a bit of a pain as the beds kept on moving apart. This made for a few uncomfortable nights. We ended up pushing the beds up against the wall, which helped a little. The food was varied and tasty. Fresh food was constantly being put out. The staff in the restaurant were friendly and attentive, and there were plenty of high chairs already set up at the tables which was a big help. We didn’t use the snack bar much, but it was handy to grab a quick bite if passing through and meant that we could have an early lunch on our last day. We did find it a little unusual that there was no bottled water on offer at the hotel, but the water dispensers were fine, although you are not allowed to top up your own bottles. All of the pools on the kids side of the hotel were very cold, but it didn’t deter our toddler from enjoying the splash park or the slide in the pool. The main pool, on the other side of the hotel by the stage, was heated but still a little chilly. Our toddler loved the mini disco, which starts at 8.30, but she quite enjoyed staying up late! One criticism however is its location. It is held by the stage next to the main pool and so it is quite dangerous for little ones who are running around and getting over-excited. The short walk to the promenade is nice. There are lovely views down to the beach and across to the sand dunes. If you walk left along the promenade, you’ll find a shopping centre with bars and restaurants. Access to the beach from the promenade is down about a million steps, so we didn’t try it, as it’s not pram or pregnant friendly! The free shuttle bus to the beach is handy. There are lots of shops and restaurants there and we walked along to the sand dunes, which are well worth a visit. We stumbled across a large market just across from the hotel on Wednesday morning, which was good for souvenir shopping. I wouldn’t bother walking to Lidl - it’s a horrible walk and is definitely not pram friendly! Check out was at 12 noon which was fabulous and meant we weren’t rushing around packing up on our last morning. I wish more hotels were like this! All in all, we had a great holiday and would definitely recommend this family-friendly hotel.

Room - 6th floor spacious, kettle, fridge, safe (payable), balcony. Cleaner arrived daily. Our room did face stage which was loud at night while acts were playing but didn’t affect my little ones sleep. Food - booked half board could not complain warm not much of a variety but never went hungry, as other reviews can get extremely busy considering we stayed after off peak (outside school holidays) I wouldn’t be in a hurry to stay during peak summer months. Night entertainment- kids disco nightly which she enjoyed (8pm- 8:45pm), another act would start 9/9:30 for an hour or a little over. Pools- hotel has two large pools these were heated not very warm but ok (found the water at the beach warmer to be honest) there was also a number of shallow pools which were not anyway heated which was a pity as they were really suitable for babies/toddlers. Daily activities- kids club for kids over 4, they had games for adults and older kids near main stage. No pool games. Beach- hotel provides free bus would defo use this if you have a buggy as you would have to get down a considerable amount of steps to reach the beach. Bus run frequently. I enjoyed my stay however probably would not stay again as there was no pool activities during the day, nice to watch or get involved.
