Destination
Located on the south-eastern coast of Spain in the region of Andalusia, Almería is a sun-drenched city renowned for its stunning beaches, historic monuments and unique desert landscapes. Known as one of the sunniest places in Europe, Almería offers the perfect mix of culture, adventure and relaxation. Whether you're exploring its ancient past or enjoying its natural beauty, here's what our holiday experts recommend for your trip to Almería:
Historical monuments:
- Alcazaba of Almería: This iconic fortress, one of the largest Moorish fortresses in Spain, offers panoramic views of the city and the sea. Explore its well-preserved walls, towers and gardens and immerse yourself in history.
- Cathedral of Almería: A striking blend of Gothic and Renaissance styles, this cathedral was built to withstand pirate attacks, and its fortress-like appearance adds to its charm.
- Civil war bunkers: Take a guided tour of the underground tunnels used as bomb shelters during the Spanish Civil War, offering a unique perspective on the city's history.
Beautiful beaches:
- Almería has unspoilt beaches with golden sands and crystal clear waters. Playa de los Genoveses and Playa de Mónsul, located in the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park, are some of the most beautiful and unspoilt beaches in the area, perfect for sunbathing, swimming and snorkelling.
- Playa del Zapillo, close to the town centre, offers family-friendly facilities and a lively promenade lined with bars and restaurants.
Natural wonders:
- Cabo de Gata-Níjar Nature Reserve: This protected area is a haven for nature lovers, with volcanic landscapes, hidden coves and unique flora and fauna. It's perfect for hiking, kayaking and bird watching.
- Tabernas Desert: Known as Europe's only desert, this unique area has been the backdrop for many famous western films. Explore its surreal landscapes and visit the Mini Hollywood Theme Park for a fun, family-friendly experience.
Family Friendly Activities:
- Mini Hollywood (Oasys Theme Park): A Wild West-style theme park with live shows, a zoo and activities for children of all ages.
- Aquarium Costa de Almería: A fantastic place for families to learn about marine life through interactive exhibits and tanks.

Gastronomy and local specialities:

- Caldo Quemao: A traditional fish soup with a smoky flavour, perfect for seafood lovers.
- Tabernero: A local tapa with peppers, onions and sausage in a tomato-based sauce.

La tranquilidad
The breakfast, in my opinion, was terrible. Starting with the coffee, which was undrinkable, and then it was not normal that there was no fruit and a lot of industrial pastries. And then the pillow was very hard.
El desayuno para mi gusto fatal Empezando por el café que era in bebible a y después lo que no era normal que no tuviera nada de fruta y mucha bollería industrial. Y después la almohada muy dura

Las habitaciones excelentes, servicio de limpieza inmejorable.
La oferta de Buscounchollo.com inmejorable, excelente.
Many shortcomings in the attention at the spa area, which I will list:
1. Lack of professionalism, attention, and punctuality in the contracted services.
2. Lack of explanations by the staff in charge of the pool's use.
3. Lack of hygiene with the use of the swimming cap, which is mandatory for some users and not for others, even though it is required by law in this type of facility.
4. Irresponsibility by the staff in charge of the pool area, as the user has to touch the shower switch with wet feet, posing an electrical hazard.
5. This switch is not isolated from other electrical switches; it is located next to the light switch, pool lighting, and water jets all on the same panel, which you must press to enter and exit the pool.
6. None of the staff tells you where this switch is located.
7. Out of 50 people, only 10 are explained to. The rest of us users find out through word of mouth.
8. The rest of the services they offer are misleading advertising:
a. There is no gym.
b. The Turkish bath is a nightmare to use.
c. The buffet is rather scarce.
d. The jacuzzi is in very poor condition. Old and deteriorated.
In summary, it is fantastic for sleeping, but any other place offers better conditions for the rest of the services.
Filing a complaint is pointless.
Requalification is what is needed; it does not deserve the Q certification.
Muchos defectos en la atención en la zona de balneario los cuales voy a numerar:
1. Falta de profesionalidad, atención y puntualidad en los servicios contratados.
2. Falta de explicaciones por parte del personal a cargo del uso de la piscina.
3. Falta de higiene con el uso del gorro en piscina para unos usuarios obligatorio y para otros no, siendo este obligatorio por ley en este tipo de recintos.
4. Irresponsabilidad por parte del personal que esta al cargo de la zona de piscina, al tener el usuario que darle al interruptor de ducha con los pies mojados con el consiguiente riesgo eléctrico existente.
5. Este interruptor no es que se encuentre independizado de otros interruptores eléctricos, se encuentra junto al de la luz, encendido de la piscina y chorros de agua todo en la misma placa, el cual debes de pulsar para entrar y salir de la piscina.
6. Este interruptor nadie del persona te dice donde se encuentra.
7. De 50 personas solo explica a 10. El resto de usuarios nos enteramos de boca en boca.
8. Con el resto de servicio que ofrecen es publicidad engañosa:
a. No existe gimnasio.
b. El baño turco es un calvario su uso
c. Bufete más bien escaso.
d. Jacuzzi en condiciones pésimas. Viejo y deteriorado.
Resumiendo para dormir es fantástico, para el resto de servicios en cualquier otro lugar ofrece mejores condiciones.
Poner una reclamación es poco.
Recalifícalor es lo suyo no merece el distintivo Q.
