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.

Make sure you visit:

  • The impressive Catedral de Murcia, a stunning mix of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles.
  • Murcia’s historic old town, perfect for strolling through lively squares and traditional streets.
  • 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.

Make sure you try these local delicacies:

  • Caldero del Mar Menor, a traditional rice dish cooked with fish.
  • Zarangollo, made with courgette, onion and egg.
  • Pastel de carne, Murcia’s iconic savoury pastry.
  • Fresh fruit and vegetables from the fertile Huerta de Murcia.

Make the most of your visit and go to...

  • Cartagena (45 minutes): Roman ruins, harbour views and history.
  • La Manga del Mar Menor (40 minutes): beaches on both sides.
  • Alicante (1 hour): castles, beaches and a lively atmosphere.

4.6 Raquel Travelled with family July 2026 The only good thing about the hotel is the friendliness of the staff.
Lo único bueno del hotel es la amabilidad del personal
Very basic buffet, and something that surprised me for the worse was the number of flies walking over the food — it was disgusting. It is extremely hot, there are no green areas, just concrete that retains the heat. The area is barren and the beach is unusable. And if you were hoping to relax, there’s no peaceful atmosphere by the pool either: loudspeaker music all day and the entertainers using a microphone constantly. We stayed five days and it was disappointing.
Buffet muy básico, y algo que me ha sorprendido para mal es la cantidad de moscas paseandose por encima de la comida es asqueroso. Hace muchísimo calor , no hay zonas verdes todo hormigón que acumula el calor.La zona es desértica , la playa no puede usarse .Y si piensas en un lugar para desconectar tampoco hay animación en la piscina todo el día con un altavoz de música y las animadoras con el micro todo el día. Hemos estado 5 días y han sido decepcionantes

8.9 Maria Victoria July 2026 The staff, the pools, the gym, the food, the tranquillity. No queues for the buffet, sunbeds always available. The entertainers are very friendly.
El personal, las piscinas, el gimnasio la comida, la tranquilidad. Sin colas para el bufete, con hamacas disponibles siempre. Las animadoras muy majas
Too much contrast between the heat outside and the air conditioning inside. The location. There is nothing nearby for a walk or to buy anything.
Demasiado contraste entre el calor de fuera y el aacc de dentro. La ubicación. No hay nada alrededor para dar un paseo o comprar....

9.7 Angel Travelled with family July 2026 Everything was great — we even extended our stay by a night! The room had air conditioning with adjustable temperature, and both the facilities and the reception staff were excellent. The ladies leading the pool activities created a lively atmosphere, so everything was very good.
Todo genial incluso ampliamos una noche más! La habitación con su aire acondicionado que se podía modificar la temperatura al gusto y tanto las instalaciones como el personal de recepción y las chicas animando las piscinas ya que le daba ambiente todo muy bien
I would recommend the hotel consider adding a lounge area near reception with sofas and a few tables, as with so much heat it would have been nicer to relax in an air-conditioned room while doing an activity than to stay in the pool enduring the stifling weather.
Haría como recomendación al hotel en si desconociendo si hubiere una sala para pasar el rato con sofas y alguna mesa en la zona cercana a recepción ya que con tanto calor apetecía mas estar agusto en una sala con el aire haciendo alguna actividad que en la propia piscina aguantando el bochorno

8.9 Sheila Travelled with couple June 2026 I went with my partner, and we both agreed that the accommodation is a place to switch off. The staff were lovely, the rooms great, and the holiday felt far too short — we’re eager to return!
Fui con mi pareja, ambos coincidimos que el alojamiento es un lugar donde ir a desconectar. El personal un encanto, las habitaciones estupendas y se nos hicieron muy cortas las vacaciones y nos quedamos con muchas ganas de volver!
When we arrived we found pool tiles on the floor and throughout the week part of the pool was broken. The infrastructure needs a bit more care, some filler and paint for the whole building, and almost all of the sun loungers were yellow (they were white). We asked for a picnic to eat outside and they gave us a dry sandwich, a small juice, a water and a little fruit, nothing special for a meal.
Cuando llegamos nos encontramos azulejos de la piscina por el suelo y toda la semana estuvo una parte de la piscina rota. Falta un poco de mimo en las infraestructuras, hace falta un poco de masilla y pintura todo el edificio, y las tumbonas casi todas estaban amarillas (eran blancas). Pedimos en picnic para comer fuera y nos dieron un sándwich seco, un zumito, un agua y un poco de fruta, nada del otro mundo para ser comida.

6.1 Susana R Travelled with couple June 2026 The hotel is spacious, the pools are wonderful, and there is lots of entertainment for children. They have a gym that is fairly well equipped, though it could do with a good cleaning.
El hotel es amplio, las piscinas una maravilla,para los niños hay mucha animación. Tienen un gimnasio bastante completo al que le haría falta una buena limpieza.
The food can improve quite a bit. The surroundings where the hotel is located are a pity, it’s not worth it. We went to see the beach and it’s mud and desolate. When you turned on the air conditioning in the room, it smelled rotten. The TV kept turning off, it kept losing signal. The shower water leaked out everywhere and flooded the bathroom. For me, the hotel has a lot of façade but does not meet my expectations and the surroundings are dismal.
La comida puede mejorar bastante. El entorno donde está el hotel es una pena, no vale nada. Fuimos a ver la playa y es fango y desolado. Cuando ponías el aire acondicionado en la habitación olía a podrido. La tele se apagaba continuamente se quedaba sin señal. El agua de la ducha se salía toda y se inundaba el baño. Para mi el hotel tiene mucha fachada pero no cumple mis expectativas y el entorno es penoso.

6.1 Marta Travelled with family June 2026 Spacious rooms and bathrooms. Good pools. Varied food, sometimes better and other times worse. Overall, the staff's service is good, although some could show more enthusiasm, and in the dining room there is a lack of staff, which is reflected in the service despite the efforts of the employees.
Habitaciones y baños amplios. Buenas piscinas. Comidas variadas, unas veces mejor y otras peor. En general, buena atencion del personal aunque a alguno le faltaba una dosis de entusiasmo y, en comedor, falta de personal que se plasma en el servicio pese al empuje de los empleados.
Room cleaning service was just adequate. They didn’t set foot on the terrace even once. The animation/entertainment was fairly weak. Horrible location, surroundings ugly and dirty, beaches best left unremembered.
Servicio de limpieza de habitaciones justito. No pisaron la terraza ni un solo dia. Animacion bastante flojita. Ubicacion horrible, entorno feo y sucio, playas que es mejor no recordar ..

8.3 Virginia Travelled with family June 2026 Quiet and clean hotel, super nice staff.
Hotel tranquilo y limpio, animadoras super majas.
The meals are not designed for children; on no day were there creams or spoon dishes. All the vegetable options were predominantly fried. The desserts were repetitive; there was never any yogurt or ice cream. To change the pool towel they will charge €3 for the change. In June there was no evening entertainment.
Las comidas no están pensadas para niños, ningún día hubo ni cremas ni platos de cuchara. Toda las opciones de verduras eran frituras mayoritariamente. Los postres repetitivos, no había nunca ni yogur ni helado. Para cambiar la toalla de piscina te cobrarán 3 € por el cambio. En junio no había animación nocturna.

6.9 David Travelled with family June 2026 The hotel wasn’t very busy during our stay, which allowed us to enjoy the pool area with plenty of peace and without crowds. It was especially pleasant to be able to relax and make the most of the outdoor facilities in a tranquil setting.
El hotel no estaba muy lleno durante nuestra estancia, lo que nos permitió disfrutar de la zona de piscina con mucha tranquilidad y sin aglomeraciones. Fue especialmente agradable poder relajarnos y aprovechar las instalaciones exteriores en un ambiente tranquilo.
We consider that several areas of the hotel showed an area of maintenance that could be improved. On several occasions we found dirty or poorly kept spaces, which affected the overall sense of quality of the establishment. In addition, during the first two days we shared the hotel with a large group of children aged approximately 12-13. This caused a high footfall at certain times, especially in the buffet, making the experience less comfortable. In our case, as it was our first holiday with our baby of 4 months, we particularly valued peace and quiet. We believe it would be helpful to inform guests in advance when there are large groups staying, so they can organise their stay according to their needs and expectations.
Consideramos que varias zonas del hotel presentaban un estado de mantenimiento mejorable. En distintas ocasiones encontramos espacios sucios o poco cuidados, lo que afectó la sensación general de calidad del establecimiento. Además, durante los dos primeros días coincidimos con un grupo numeroso de niños de aproximadamente 12-13 años. Esto provocó una gran afluencia en determinados horarios, especialmente en el buffet, haciendo la experiencia menos cómoda. En nuestro caso, al tratarse del primer viaje con nuestra bebé de 4 meses, valorábamos especialmente la tranquilidad. Creemos que sería positivo informar previamente a los huéspedes cuando haya grupos numerosos alojados, para que puedan organizar mejor su estancia según sus necesidades y expectativas.

10 Virginia Travelled with couple June 2026 I have already been there, I have repeated and I will take it again. I really like the location. Overall I like everything. The cleanliness is excellent. The food, which in other hotels due to being a buffet is mediocre, here is very good, with quality and variety.
Ya estuve he repetido y volveré a cogerlo. Me gusta mucho la ubicación. Y en general me gusta todo . La limpieza es excelente La comida que en otros hoteles por ser buffet es mediocre aquí está muy bien,con calidad y variedad

7 Antonio Travelled with couple June 2026 The hotel itself is very nice, but it’s a pity that it’s lost in nowhere and the beaches cannot be used because they’re a nature reserve.
El hotel en si muy bien,lastima que está perdido en la nada y las playas no se pueden utilizar por ser reserva natural
Take the car for everything—there’s nothing in the surroundings, and when I say nothing, I mean nothing.
Coger el coche para todo,no hay nada en los alrededores y cuando digo nada es nada
