Hotel parking was expensive as no street parking was available close by. Dogs are also allowed in rooms, no thought for next guest. Only two lifts for eight floors.

Location is good - right on beach and very central - right at front so great views over beach Surley staff - totally disorganised at breakfast - like staying at Butlins - not for anyone looking for a relaxing time - only for families with lots of children

Good location, friendly staff, everything was pretty much as we expected to find it. We enjoyed our stay at the hotel and Almunecar.Lots of Spanish guests which always says something about a Spanish hotel... The parking costs should be clear from the start - it wasn't expensive but did add a further cost and I think the site simply says parking at cost. Also the fact that they insisted on half board - no option, which was the one thing that nearly made me book elsewhere. There were a couple of nights where we didn't use the hotel simply to have dinner out, but we had to pay for it. Bit restrictive for people who don't have young families and don't want hotel food all week.

Excellent facilities. The food was very well prepared and presented with lots of choice evry evening. There was no need to go out to eat. The foyer was clean and bright and a real feature. The staff went out of their way to be helpful, even though some of them were on strike during our stay! Having an indoor pool, gym and games room was a real plus as the weather was dreadful and we couldn't go out. Even so we had a wonderful stay which says a lot for the hotel. Certainly the best place to stay in Almuñecar. Only very minor issues, nothing that would put me off. Leak in the roof, we had torrential rain, tiles missing on the indoor pool floor. No staff on duty when the pool was in use. Could be noisy when parties came in late at night.

Location to our friends and family who live there,and the price,and the staff all excelent. Some parts were a bit on the cold side, due to the time of year.

I liked the idea that you cannot reserve the sunbeds.

The hotel was very lovely. The Spa and indoor swimming pool was good. The food was totally not good. I complained to the manager and his answer was to moved to another hotel. We wasn't allowed to enter the dinning room with paying first. We wanted to have a look at a menu and no menu's was available.

Good location,nice pool, spacious rooms. Good price. Corridors need a good clean.Mediocre food at buffet. I do not think it rates 4 stars. Standards have declined since I stayed 3 years ago when it was part of Sol Melia chain.
