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...

  • Alicante (1 hour): castles, beaches and a lively atmosphere.

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.

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.

6.1 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 ..

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.

9.4 Maria Travelled with  friends June 2026 The wonderful buffet is almost impossible to find a buffet where the food is good.. And quite varied.. here it is. The room very comfortable, clean and quite spacious. I travelled with a friend, and asked for two beds, they gave us them. It is worth noting the most important thing is the people who work in this hotel: the receptionist, a super friendly girl, Aída; the waitress, marvellous, Antonio, the waiter, super friendly and kind. Being surrounded by such pleasant people makes the stay marvellous. They have three pools and there are plenty of sun loungers. I recommend it if what you want is to unwind. It is one of the best hotels I have stayed in, and I’ve been to a fair few.
El buffet maravilloso, es casi imposible encontrar un bufet donde la comida esté buena.. Y bastante variada.. aquí lo está. La habitación muy cómoda, límpia y bastante amplia. Yo viaje con una amiga, y pedí dos camas, nos la dieron. Cabe reseñar lo más importante, es la gente que trabaja en éste hotel, la recepcionista, una chica super simpática, Aída, camarera, maravillosa, Antonio, camarero, super simpático y amable. Estar rodeado de gente tan agradable te hace la estancia maravillosa. Disponen de tres piscinas y las amacas no faltan. Lo recomiendo si lo que quieres es desconectar. Es de los mejores hoteles, que he estado y ya llevo bastantes.
There are no complaints about the accommodation. But it is away from the rest of the world... we thought a zombie might appear at some moment, like in The Walking Dead.
Del alojamiento ninguna queja. Pero está apartado del mundo... pensabamos que nos iba a aparecer algún zombie en algún momento, estilo walking dead....

The lunch and dinner in the dining room leave a lot to be desired, in my opinion, and I’m not particularly picky, but the breakfast is very good.

8.3 Celeste Travelled with couple June 2026 The nice room, well located, good food and a good atmosphere in general, there was even a gym by the pool, games, entertainment... and it didn’t get crowded, even when sunbathing. In short, I would return.
La habitación bonita, bien situada, comida buena y buen ambiente en general, hicieron hasta gym en la piscina, juegos, animación.. y no molestaba en cantidad aunque estuvieses tomando el sol. En resumen volvería
The room cleaning knocked on our door right at siesta time, but it isn’t really a bad thing… overall, it was fine.
La limpieza de la habitación nos tocaron a la puerta justo a la hora de la siesta, pero bueno tampoco es algo negativo… en general bien

9.7 Lide Travelled with family June 2026 The hotel is very good, the waiters/waitresses are incredibly attentive and charming; they always greet you with a smile and take care of you whenever you need anything.
El hotel está muy bien, las y los camareros súper atentos y encantadores, cualquier cosa siempre te atienden con buena cara.
The accommodation has everything, it’s a pity that the surroundings are like this; the beach, as in nearly all of Mar Menor, is full of seaweed. It’s in a privileged location but poorly used, although that isn’t the hotel’s fault. At least its beach is very well kept.
El alojamiento lo tiene todo, es una pena que el entorno esté así, la playa como en casi todo el mar menor, repleta de algas. Está en un sitio privilegiado pero mal aprovechado, aunque de eso el hotel no tiene la culpa. Al menos su playa está muy bien cuidada.

5.3 Gema Travelled with family June 2026 The room is very large, the hotel is nice.
La habitación es muy grande , el hotel está bien
They were quite disorganised. It’s the first time I’m told that although check-in is at 16:00, from 12:00h they start giving out rooms, and until 15:30h I have no room despite there being 4 of us staying. The food on the first day was rated 10, but as the hotel emptied out it left much to be desired. There was some entertainment on the first day, then it disappeared. The cleaning when we entered showed hair in the bathroom corner on the floor, and whenever they cleaned rooms they neither swept nor mopped. Considering the shower water ran onto the floor, it was a mess. The location is quite poor, in the middle of nowhere. The nearby beach is totally abandoned and there are many insects.
Tenían bastante descontrol , es la primera vez que me dicen que aunque el chekin es a las 16 a partir de las 12 empiezan a dar habitaciones y hasta las 15:30 no tengo habitación estando alojados 4 gatos.. La comida el primer día de 10 , según se fue vaciando aun más el hotel dejó mucho que desear . Algo de animación el primer día , luego desapareció. La limpieza cuando entramos había pelos en la esquina del baño en el suelo y cada vez que hacían las habitaciones no barrían ni fregaban y teniendo en cuenta que se salia el agua de la ducha al suelo eso era una guarrada. La ubicación es bastante mala , en medio de la nada , la playa que tiene cerca está abandonada totalmente y hay mucho insecto

7.4 Tony Travelled with couple June 2026 If you don’t plan to move around much, the hotel is very good indeed; the rooms are impressive, the staff excellent, but the buffet is a little limited, very repetitive—for example there aren’t spoon options, and I heard several guests asking about this. The desserts are very monotonous, lacking variety and scarce. The beach is terrible, almost unusable due to how dirty it was; on the other hand, car park was very easy and everything was within a car’s reach. I missed a promenade with stalls and so on, evening entertainment of any kind, a bingo, a karaoke, or some animator or band to spend a few hours and not dine and go to bed almost immediately.
El hotel si no piensas moverte mucho por alrededores esta muy bien, las habitaciones impresionantes, el personal muy bien, el bufet un poco justito, muy repetitivo, por ejemplo no hay opciones de cuchara y oí a varios huéspedes preguntarlo, los postres muy monótonos, sin variedad y escasos. La playa malísima, inaccesible casi de lo sucia que estaba, por otro lado, aparcar se aparcaba muy bien y todo estaba con coche mas o menos cerca, eche de menos un paseo marítimo con sus puestos y demás, actuaciones por la noche, de cualquier tipo, un bingo, un karaoke, o algun animador o grupo para pasar unas horas y no cenar e irte casi a la cama.
