Free parking should have been included but was only for ’all inclusives’!!?? We had to park on a street 300 meters from the hotel ☹️, nice breakfast. ##### Sven Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sabrina 19 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Second time in this property and it was again great! Good food, friendly staff, excellent service and all very clean. I did feel that this time the entertainment was a bit slow for our age range, there was a big group of elderly people in the property and not many activities going on like we had the year before. ##### Sabrina Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stella 25 Oct 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Loved it Fabulous hotel. We have travelled all over the world and have yet to see a restaurant with the selection of wonderful food provided. Cleanliness was impressive as was the friendly staff who couldn’t do enough. The area is very quiet and there is a walkway to an unspoiled massive beach. If you just want to chill out and not be among masses of tourists this is the place! Thoroughly recommend. ##### Stella Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 3 Oct 2013 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very good breakfast, great variety of products. Nice design of the room. However, the door is not soundproof, woke up at 8am because of cleaning the neighbouring room. Also, permanent stains on the toilet seat is not very appropriate for 4-star hotel. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### jane 5 Jun 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### quiet, friendly hotel Lovely hotel, good rooms, we had sea view balcony - a must have, stunning view of pool side and sea. We went for all inclusive , all hotel staff couldn't to enough to make your stay enjoyable. Pool a little fresh but it is end of May, there is a lovely indoor pool Spa was good, sports massage excellent. Bar staff worked hard and took delight in bringing drinks to us from our sun loungers - how decadent did we feel. Animation team very bubbly and fun all wig lots of personality and novel poolside ideas . I took a beautiful hour walk every day along the beach, prom and Marina Not a lot to do at night but animation put on a good show A place to come and relax and get some sunshine ##### jane ### 8/10 Good #### Pat 3 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good family hotel 12 nights family holiday. We’ve stayed before at this hotel and we were delighted with our room - ask for a rear view of the nature reserve! Food is always excellent at the Iberostar. We stayed half board so can’t comment on drinks but they looked good. I would say the lighting in the canteen style restaurant needs working on as the ambience was OK for evening dinner. The hotel is now 90% Spanish/Portuguese guests which appeals to us but, English is very limited do you have to try your Espanol! Entertainment was busy and they worked hard. I would say that the hotel is in need of some modernisation now but, it is still a decent choice for a beach holiday. The playa was great, Neptune’s still going strong in the marina and the restaurants in Punta del Moral are still outstanding quality and value. Ayamonte still a nightmare to park and a little rundown - watch out for the beggar parking attendants. We visited Sanlucar de Guidiana and absolutely loved it - zipwire and all! Muy Bien! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/BF5550717785505E2DE425FDEE0E8DA2D457F3B61693736744937.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/FB5BF3370EE676D760A2647007A82A664AE84E2B1693736745640.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Pat Stayed 12 nights in Aug 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Anders 11 Jun 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Waste of money (and time) A four star hotel? Yes absolutely, if on a scale to ten. They are unorganized at check-in and it went downhill from there. The room itself was ok for a 2-3 star hotel, until we opened the bathroom, a reaking smell of urine. This wasn't cleaned at all during our stay. Despite the room being on the top floor (4th), the cooking odor from the kitchen reached our room and floor. They made us pay a deposit for towels. Honestly, I don't know if I should cry or laugh. The towels could only be changed for fresh ones during limited hours. Not enough sunbeds around the pool area. Breakfast reminded more of a shelter handing out food than the morning serving of a 4-star hotel. No proper restaurant in the hotel and we had to leave with car to eat both lunch and dinner. With small children, anything but practical. Overall, we could leave fast enough. The hotel is a joke. ##### Anders Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 30 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Hotel estupendo y servicio cuidado.
