Why this destination is a must-visit

Murcia: the jewel of south eastern Spain that has it all

Murcia is one of Spain’s best-kept secrets, offering sunshine almost all year round, a relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle and a rich cultural heritage. Located in the southeast of Spain, this vibrant city and its surrounding region are ideal for couples and families looking for good weather, great food and a more authentic Spanish experience away from the crowds.

  • The Cartagena, famous for its Roman heritage and natural harbour.
  • Local markets such as Verónicas, where daily life and local flavours come together.

Beaches we think you’ll like:

  • Mar Menor: shallow, warm waters, ideal for families.
  • Los Alcázares Beach: calm and well-equipped.
  • La Manga beaches: long sandy stretches between two seas.
  • Cala Cortina (Cartagena): small, scenic and very local.

Family-friendly activities:

  • Enjoy a relaxed boat or paddleboard session on the Mar Menor.
  • Visit parks and gardens around the Segura River.
  • Discover Roman history through interactive museums in Cartagena.
  • Take easy cycling routes along the coast or flat inland areas.

The location is great, the hotel is super modern and the food is amazing!
Nothing, everything was brilliant!

9.4 Marta Travelled with couple August 2026 It was an incredible experience, a weekend where I was able to completely unwind. All the food was delicious and the staff were fantastic.
Ha sido una experiencia increíble, un fin de semana de desconexión al 100%. La comida esta toda buenísima y el personal ideal.
The only thing I would improve is the cleanliness of the rooms. When we checked in, there was hair on the bathroom floor and the taps hadn’t been cleaned. Everything else was perfect.
Lo único que mejoraría es la limpieza de las habitaciones. Cuando hicimos el check-in había pelos por el suelo del baño y los grifos no se habían limpiado. Por el resto todo perfecto.

7.4 Lu Travelled with couple August 2026 To be honest, we had a good stay, although it’s a bit out of the way, as you need a car to get around. The pool was fine and there were enough sun loungers.
La verdad que hemos estado bien, aunque un poco apartado, ya que necesitas coche para desplazarte. Tema piscina bien, ya que hay amacas suficientes
The gym was very neglected, I never saw it clean, and there wasn't much variety of food.

7.4 Maria Teresa Travelled with family August 2026 Very spacious rooms. Three very large swimming pools. Plenty of space to relax there. There was even shower gel and conditioner in the rooms.
Habitantes muy amplias. 3 piscinas muy grandes. Mucho espacio para estar allí. Incluso crema y suavizante en las habitaciones.
The entertainment could be better, especially for adults. There are four entertainers but they don't put in as much effort as they should. The cleanliness could also be improved, both in the rooms and in the main areas.
La animación puede ser mejor, especialmente para los adultos. Hay 4 animadoras pero no sé esfuerzan tanto como deberían. La limpieza es mejorable tanto en las habitaciones, como en las zonas comunes.

Personal que atiende el comedor muy agradable y educado. Buenas instalaciones. Comida variada y sabrosa. Habitaciones limpias y cómodas.
The main areas were very dirty, especially the bathrooms opposite the gym and the bathrooms next to the entrance. I reported it at reception and it wasn't sorted out all day.
Las zonas comunes estaban muy sucias, en concreto, los baños que están enfrente del gimnasio y los baños al lado de la entrada. Avisé en recepción y no se solucionó en todo el día.

8.3 Chicachiquita Travelled with family August 2026 The hotel is very good, spacious rooms, very large and very comfortable beds. There are three pools and enough sun loungers and shade. I got a fully adapted room for people with disabilities and it was perfect. The buffet staff were very friendly, Aida is a lovely woman who helped me with several things. There is plenty of car park. And above all, the entertainment: Lucía, Vanesa and Isabel are excellent entertainers. The hotel is very peaceful, ideal for unwinding for a few days. But above all, what stands out is that it’s almost new or has been very well refurbished.
El hotel está muy bien, habitaciones amplias, camas muy grandes y muy cómodas hay 3 piscinas y suficientes hamacas y sombra. Me tocó una habitación totalmente adaptada a minusvalía y estaba perfecta La gente de buffet era muy amable, aida una chica encantadora que me facilitó varias cosas. Tiene bastante aparcamiento Y sobretodo la animación Lucía, Vanesa e Isabel son excelentes animadoras El hotel es muy tranquilo ideal para desconectar unos días Pero sobretodo a destacar es que es casi nuevo o le han hecho un buen lavado de cara
What I liked least, without a doubt, was the cleanliness of the room. The sheets got stained on the first day and they didn’t change them throughout our stay, nor did they clean the mirrors. The breakfast buffet was always the same. It wasn’t bad, but it never varied, and if you arrived a bit late, some things weren't restocked. Another thing that was quite bothersome was on the sea terrace — people were smoking. I’m not necessarily against it, but there were loads of children and so many people smoking, including cigars, that at one point you just couldn’t stay out there. The hotel is far away from everything.
Lo que menos me gustó sin duda fue la limpieza de la habitación, las sábanas se mancharon el primer día y no las cambiaron en toda la estancia ni tampoco limpiaban espejos Y el buffet del desayuno siempre había lo mismo, no estaba mal pero no variaba y si ibas algo tarde algunas cosas no las reponen Y también una cosa que molestaba bastante en la terraza del mar la gente fumaba, yo no es que esté en contra pero habían muchísimos niños y muchísima gente fumando incluido puros y hubo un momento que no había quien estuviera allí. El hotel está apartado de todo

8 Francisca Travelled with family August 2026 Good and spacious swimming pools that aren’t overcrowded. Friendly staff. Comfortable facilities.
Buenas y grandes piscinas sin masificar. Amabilidad del personal. Comodidad de las instalaciones.
The pillows were extremely soft. A bit of firmness would be appreciated for those of us who suffer from neck problems.
Almohadas excesivamente blandas. Un poco de firmeza es de agradecer para los que sufrimos de cervicales.

7 Nerea Travelled with family August 2026 Overall, the hotel is very good, the pools are nice, the staff are friendly, and the buffet breakfast is very good.
en general el hotel está muy bien, las piscinas, los trabajadores son agradables y el desayuno del bufet muy bien
In the photos, there's a beach from I don’t know how many years ago, and nowhere does it say that you can't swim or do anything at the beach next to the hotel because it's full of seaweed. On top of that, there's absolutely nothing around - it feels like a ghost hotel. The hotel entertainment is very limited, the staff are nice but everything is designed for kids and in the evenings there's nothing to do. Also, one night I went to the terrace (the only thing that's open) and there was just one girl serving everyone. I asked for an ice cream and she told me they only had two types left, even though there was a whole board of ice creams, and considering there's nothing nearby, you'd expect at least a minimum selection. Plus, she was charging people very randomly - the lady in front didn’t pay anything and she had Full Board just like me. They’re completely disorganised... Honestly, knowing you have to drive anywhere, they should pay more attention to the hotel services.
En las fotos sale una playa de hace no sé cuántos años y no pone en ninguna parte que en la playa de al lado del hotel no te puedes bañar ni nada ya que está llena de algas, además no hay absolutamente nada alrededor, parece un hotel fantasma La animación del hotel es muy escasa, las trabajadoras son majas pero todo está pensando para niños y por las noches no hay nada que hacer Además un día por la noche fui a la terraza (lo único que está abierto) y hay solo una chica atendiendo para todos los que somos, le pedí un helado y me decía que solo le quedaban de dos tipos teniendo un cartel entero de helados y teniendo en cuenta que alrededor no hay nada lo suyo es que haya un mínimo, además cabe decir que le cobraba a quien le apetecía, porque a la señora de delante no le cobró nada y tenía pensión completa como yo, tienen un lío enorme… realmente sabiendo que tienes que coger el coche para ir a cualquier lado deberían prestar más atención a los servicios del hotel…

7 Maria Nieves Travelled with  friends August 2026 The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are comfortable, and the facilities are well maintained... the food isn’t bad...
El hotel es precioso, las habitaciones cómodas, y las instalaciones cuidadas,,, la comida no está mal,,,
The advertising is misleading, the hotel is in the middle of nowhere, not even within the village, and 20 km from Cartagena. The entertainment is terrible and there’s nothing to do in the hotel except eat and sleep. You need a car for everything.
La publicidad es engañosa, el hotel está en medio de la nada, ni siquiera dentro del pueblo, y a 20 kms de Cartagena,,, la animación pésima y no ofrece nada que hacer dentro del hotel más allá que comer y dormir,,, dependes del coche para todo

5 Javier Travelled with family August 2026 The only good thing was the staff, who were very friendly.
Lo único bueno el personal muy amables
Terrible food, very little variety and not enough to go around. For example, it's the first hotel I've been to where there are no ice creams or yoghurts—just disappointing... And the location is dreadful, there’s nothing nearby and they even suggest you don't swim at the beach. All in all, I won’t be coming back.
Comida horrible, poca variedad y escasez de alimentos, por ejemplo primer hotel donde no hay helados y yogures, lamentable..... Y la ubicación penosa nada alrededor y la playa te recomiendan no bañarte...en fin, no volveré

8.9 Leticia Travelled with couple August 2026 Our stay was great. When we arrived, our room had two single beds even though we had booked a double bed. They sorted it out the next day. The food was very good, with a good variety every day and a buffet to suit all tastes.
Nuestra estancia fue genial, al llegar nuestra habitación era de dos camas cuando habíamos reservado cama de matrimonio. Al día siguiente ya lo habían solucionado. La comida muy bien, buena variedad todos los días y un buffet para cualquier tipo de gustos.
I liked it, but I should mention that we always noticed sand on the floor in the rooms, and even more so on the terrace, as if it wasn’t being swept. And about the location, it's far from everything, so if you’re not looking for that kind of peace and quiet where you’re not near anything, this isn’t the hotel for you.
Como pero podría indicar que en el suelo de las habitaciones siempre notábamos arena, y la terraza aún más como si no se barriera. Y la ubicación, está alejado de todo así que si lo que buscas no es esa tranquilidad de no estar cerca de nada. No es tu hotel.
