8.9 Carmen Travelled with family June 2025 The rooms are new and very clean. All facilities were very good, everything seemed new. Very quiet hotel. Friendly staff and always attentive.
Las habitaciones nuevas y muy limpias. Todas las instalaciones estaban muy bien, todo parecía nuevo. Hotel muy tranquilo. Personal amable y siempre atento
The food is improvable. Menus are quite repetitive and some dishes are not very well cooked. Lacks some animation, especially after dinner. The hotel is isolated from everything and if you want to do something after dinner, you have to take the car.
La comida es mejorable. Menús bastante repetitivos y algunos platos no muy bien cocinados. Falta algo de animación, sobretodo después de la cena. El hotel está apartado de todo y si quieres hacer algo después de cenar tienes q coger el coche.

6.9 Jaime Travelled with couple June 2025 The large room is comfortable with dust mite-free pillows; the pools are large with shaded areas and plenty of sun loungers.
la habitación grande confortable y almohadas sin ácaros; las piscinas grandes y con zonas de sombra y bastantes tumbonas
The dining room, unfortunately, we were there last year and it was already bad, but they have reduced the quality and quantity of the food, for two consecutive days they told us there was no ice cream in the dining room, if this is the Barceló 4* quality.........
el comedor, de pena, estuvimos al año pasado y ya era malo, pero han recortado la calidad y cantidad de los alimentos, por dos días seguidos nos dijeron que no había helado en el comedor, si esto es la calidad Barceló 4*.........

10 María Travelled with couple June 2025 Three pools, activities like aquagym and others in them, for children too. Great food. Super attentive and friendly staff. Spacious rooms with terrace well isolated from noise and with a super comfortable mattress. I am pregnant and have rested like never before. I recommend it 100%. We will come back with the baby as soon as we can. It is the best place to relax and unwind.
Tres piscinas, actividades como aquagym y otras en ellas, para niños también. Comida estupenda. Personal súper atento y amable. Habitaciones amplias con terraza bien aisladas de ruidos y con colchón súper cómodo. Estoy embarazada y he descansado como nunca. Lo recomiendo 100%. Volveremos con el bebé en cuanto podamos. Es el mejor sitio para estar tranquilo y desconectar

8.3 Daniel Travelled with family June 2025 "Beautiful hotel, with good facilities. Geared towards spending weekends. Outside of them, the hotel is almost too quiet."
Precioso hotel, con buenas instalaciones. Orientado a pasar fines de semana. Fuera de ellos, el hotel es casi demasiado tranquilo.
The lifeguards are a bit distrustful. The gastronomic offer is aimed at the weekend. Outside of it, the quality/quantity considerably decreases. Unfortunately, the Mar Menor is in an unworkable state.
Los socorristas, un poco desconfiados. La oferta gastronómica está orientada al fin de semana. Fuera de él, baja considerable la calidad/cantidad. El estado impracticable del Mar menor, por desgracia

9.4 Carla Travelled with couple June 2025 We stayed 3 nights at the hotel with Half Board and overall everything was very good. The place is very quiet and the surroundings invite you to unwind. The hotel is spacious with large spaces in the pool area; which are very clean and that spaciousness allows air to flow. As for the rooms, they are large with a spacious bathroom and a fantastic terrace. The staff is very attentive, polite, and hardworking. They don't stop all day. In fact, it was my birthday and they had the detail of leaving me a gift with a congratulatory note in the room. In terms of value for money, the hotel is great.
Estuvimos 3 noches en el hotel con media pensión y en general todo muy bien. El lugar es muy tranquilo y el entorno invita a desconectar. El hotel es amplio con grandes espacios en la zona de las piscinas; las cuales están muy limpias y esa amplitud hace que corra aire. En cuanto a las habitaciones son grandes con un baño espacioso y una terraza fantástica. El personal es muy atento, educado y currante. No paran en todo el día. De hecho fue mi cumpleaños y tuvieron el detalle de dejarme un regalo con una nota de felicitación en la habitación. Relación calidad-precio el hotel es estupendo.
To put some downside, I would improve the quality of the food. And I would do some maintenance work such as painting the exterior, securing the pool railings properly, and planting some trees to give it a cozier touch.
Por poner algún pero, mejoraría la calidad de la comida. Y haría alguna reforma de mantenimiento como pintar el exterior, anclar bien las barandillas de la piscina y poner algún árbol para darle un toque más acogedor.
