Why this destination is a must-visit
Curiosities of Retamar - El Toyo
Retamar and El Toyo are two areas often mentioned together, yet they reveal distinct personalities. This is one of Almería’s most promising zones, shaped by the fusion of residential tradition and the modern energy of major international events.
-
The Mediterranean Games Legacy
El Toyo as you see it today was born from the Almería 2005 Mediterranean Games. The neighborhood was purpose-built to host the Mediterranean Village, welcoming elite athletes from around the world. Many of today’s upscale residential complexes were once home to sporting champions — a legacy that still defines its character. -
A “Garden City” Concept
Unlike the historic center of Almería, El Toyo was designed with a low-density urban vision.-
Green living: Kilometres of bike lanes and wide pedestrian promenades invite you to move freely and enjoy the outdoors.
-
Clean skyline: Much of the electricity and telecommunication infrastructure runs underground, creating an uncluttered, modern coastal landscape.
-
-
The Gateway to Cabo de Gata
Retamar stands as the literal entrance to the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park. It is the final urban hub before protected nature begins. Stay in a luxury hotel and, within five minutes by car, reach the untouched beauty of Las Amoladeras — an unbeatable strategic location. -
Alborán Golf Course
El Toyo features an 18-hole, par-72 golf course that has become a regional benchmark. Designed with sustainability in mind, it incorporates native plant species and efficient irrigation systems adapted to Almería’s semi-arid climate. -
The Origins of Retamar
While El Toyo represents 21st-century modernity, Retamar began expanding in the 1960s and 1970s. Initially conceived as a summer retreat for Almería’s affluent families seeking distance from the city’s bustle, it is now fully integrated into the metropolitan landscape. -
A Privileged Microclimate
Thanks to its open bay location and surrounding orography, the area typically enjoys slightly warmer winters than the capital and a constant sea breeze that tempers the summer heat — a natural advantage you can feel year-round.

Buffetten waren uitgebreid, show cooking had lekkere gerechten gemaakt door sympathieke koks.
Mooie omgeving !
Heel gehorige kamers (kamer met tussendeur).
Heel erg druk omwille van jeugdgroepen die doorheen het hele hotel ongecontroleerd hun gang gingen en vooral in het restaurant enorm veel lawaai en chaos veroorzaakten.
Restaurant erg ongezellig... 'refter' zou een betere omschrijving zijn.
Good
Fuimos el último día que estuvo abierto el hotel, y para nuestra sorpresa todo estaba de lujo. Incluso el último día tanto el personal como la comida eran magníficos

Me ha gustado bastante el hotel, una gran piscina y camas super cómodas.
In the bathroom there were problems with the drains, both in the sink and in the shower. But well
En el aseo habían problemas con los desagües, tanto en lavabo como en ducha. Pero bien

El personal y la habitación 10
La comida aceptable
I wish they would do the room and the worst thing was the loud music from the cafeteria all day.
The exaggerated volume of the speakers and when the entertainers perform as well. The rest 10
Me gustaría hiciesen la habitación y lo peor fue la música estridente de la cafetería todo el día.
El volumen exagerado de los altavoces y cuando actúan los animadores también. El resto 10

Las piscinas y el personal de recepción y de animación, la verdad que una maravilla los chicos de animacion
Very old rooms, the fan sounded like an airplane, the food very, very bad and repetitive and poor hygiene.
Habitaciones muy antiguas, el ventilador sonaba como un avión, la comida muy muy mala y repetitiva y la higiene escasa.

Basic
Lo que más hemos disfrutado es la pequeña piscina infantil, ideal para bebes ya que no cubre y tiene un par de toboganes seguros para ellos con buena visibilidad y hamacas cerca para no perderlos de vista
El todo incluido muy pocas opciones sin alcohol, la cerveza 0.0 sólo si eres diabético, embarazada u otra condición médica. Una política absurda la verdad, por ejemplo ni siquiera incluía un mojito sin alcohol, había que pagar la mitad, además un poco decepcionante que nos dijeron que si llegábamos a la cena la primera noche, el día de salida salíamos en el almuerzo, pues a las 12h del check out expiraba mágicamente el todo incluido, nos cortaron la pulsera y aunque almorzamos en el bufete ya no había bebidas ni café, a pagar otra vez.

El equipo de animación un 10 los chico lo hacen perfecto !!!!
When we entered the room, honestly the cleaning was terrible... stains on the mirror, dog hair on the terrace, and on top of that, they didn't come to fix it. They cleaned well on Sunday. The bar staff a bit rude, I can understand, but in the end, it's a job facing the public.
Cuando entramos a la habitación sinceramente la limpieza fatal.. manchas en el espejo pelos de perro en la terraza y encima no vinieron a solucionarlo. El domingo si limpiaron bien. El personal del bar un poquito borde puedo entenderlo pero al final es un trabajo cara al público.

Las habitaciones no están mal. Limpias, espaciosas, sin grandes lujos, pero bien. La zona de piscinas está muy bien, con la zona infantil y los toboganes. Buena animación de los monitores que entretienen a los niños.
The food is bad. Little variety, poor quality, small quantity. The dining room is small for the number of people and it gets very crowded during peak hours.
La comida es mala. Poca variedad, mala calidad, poca cantidad. El comedor es pequeño para la gente que hay y se acumula mucha gente en horas puntas.

La animación, las piscinas y toboganes, el entorno tranquilo y bonito, el personal, muy amable y profesional, y aunque la playa está a unos 300 metros y es de piedras, es amplia, no masificada y bella.
Two things, it needs an urgent renovation of the toilets and doors in the rooms, and a more direct access from the interior to the exterior of the hotel, the detour that has to be taken is excessive when there is already a door from the pool to the exit, but unfortunately it is closed.
Dos cosas, necesita una renovación urgente de aseos y puertas en las habitaciones, y un acceso mas directo desde el interior al exterior del hotel, es excesiva la vuelta que se tiene que dar cuando ya existe una puerta desde la piscina a la salida, pero que por desgracia está cerrada.

Lo mejor la animación, la amabilidad del personal , las piscinas y la comodidad de las camas y almohadas. Habitaciones grandes , camas enormes.. en líneas generales para repetir , pero no más de 2 noches por el tema del comedor . Te ofrecen un pack para incluir las bebidas en las comidas que está muy bien, ya que íbamos con pensión completa.
Tal y como leímos en otros comentarios , la comida deja mucho que desear.. en mi opinión la variedad era más que suficiente, y aunq la calidad muy regularera , había cosas que estaban muy buenas.. el problema principal me parece que está en la mala organización y gestión del comedor , para ir por la bebida y la cocina en vivo sobretodo .. aunque a veces hasta para las ensaladas había cola .. la verdad no entiendo como a pesar de tantos comentarios negativos no han puesto ya solución a este tema .. una pena , la verdad , porque el hotel en general está muy bien.. las habitaciones aunque se ven antiguas , están aceptables .. aunque no cuidan mucho los detalles , por ejemplo , el primer día vimos que la bañera quedaba atrancada y quitamos el sifón , y así se tiró puesto en el filo de la bañera los 3 días que duró nuestra estancia ( decir también que no dimos aviso a nadie , pero hubiera sido un detalle que si hacen la habitación todos los días y ven eso así lo hubieran arreglado ) pero vamos , que no son cosas como para no volver..
