8.6 Sandra Traveled solo July 2025 Dinner variety, there are also different dishes depending on the day, and if a dish runs out, they restock. Excellent breakfast. Very kind and attentive reception staff. It's perfect that water from the menu is included, great. Very spacious room with views of the pool and sea. Very close to the beach.
Variedad cena, también hay platos distintos según día, y si un plato se agota, repuestan. Desayundo genial Personal recepción muy amable y atento. Perfecto que el agua del menu esté incluida, genial. Habitación muy grande y con vistas a piscina y mar. Muy cerca de la playa.
Improvements needed in the breakfast picnic (there was no coffee, sour fruit, no croissants...), which I ordered to take away since I couldn't stay for breakfast at the buffet because I had to get up early. It would be ideal to have a coffee machine in the lobby, as well as a computer with internet available to guests. Ideally, if the restaurant closed at 10 p.m., it's too early for Spanish tourists to close at 9:30 p.m. The pool jets close too early. The price is a bit high for a solo traveller.
Faltaria mejorar picnic desayuno (no había café, fruta ácida, ningun croissant..), que pedí para llevar pues no podía quedarme a desayunar en el buffet porque tuve que madrugar. Ideal si hubiese máquina de cafe en el hall, también ordenador con internet a disposición del cliente. Ideal, si el restaurante cerrase a las 22h, es muy justo para el turista español cerrar a las 21:30h. Los chorros de la piscina, cierran demasiado temprano. Precio algo caro para una persona que viaja sola.

7.7 Angeles Travelled with couple July 2025 Close to the beach
Cercano a la playa
The rooms are very nice, but I would change the pillows. They are terrible. Food is okay, but a bit repetitive. There should be entertainment at the hotel daily. On Friday and Saturday, there was a DJ but it was very boring. He only played music. For that, you don't need a DJ, playing a recorded disk is the same.
Las habitaciones están muy bien, pero cambiaría las almohadas. Son terribles. Comidas bien, pero un poco repetitivas. Debería de haber animación en el hotel a diario. El viernes y sábado hubo un disyey pero era aburridísimo. Solo ponía música. Para eso no hace falta un disyey, con que pongan un disco grabado es lo mismo

9.4 Rosana Travelled with family July 2025 It is a 3-star hotel with an ideal location to go to the beach and Marineland (the free bus stop is 50 metres away) and in a walk full of bars, shops, and atmosphere. The best, without a doubt, the staff. The girl who attended us at the reception was very friendly and attentive to all details. The restaurant staff was also very nice. I also liked the food a lot, the buffet is not very varied but what is there is very good. The pool is a great size and it is worth noting that the lifeguard makes sure everyone has a sunbed and that they are not reserved.
Es un hotel 3 estrellas con una ubicación ideal para ir a la playa y a Marineland (la parada de bus gratuito está a 50 metros) y en un paseo lleno de bares, tiendas, y ambiente. Lo mejor, sin duda, el personal. La chica que nos atendió en la recepción muy simpática y atenta a todos los detalles. El personal del restaurante también muy agradable. La comida me gustó mucho también, el buffet no es muy variado pero lo que hay está muy bueno. La piscina tiene un tamaño estupendo y cabe destacar que el socorrista se preocupa de que todo el mundo tenga tumbona y que no se reserven.
It has some renovations done and surely they will continue to do more. I missed having a hairdryer and a mini fridge a little bit.
Tiene alguna reforma hecha y seguro que van a seguir haciendo más. Eché un poquito en falta el secador de pelo y una neverita.
