We also loved the proximity to the ocean: just a short walk and you’re at a beautiful, wide sandy beach with crystal-clear water. The staff were friendly and helpful, making us feel completely at home. We’ll definitely come back – highly recommended! ##### Jakub Stayed 10 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### José María 13 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Personal muy amable ##### José María Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Melia 13 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Alles in Allem ein gelungener Urlaub. Das Hotel ist groß und -teilweise- modern. Der Speisesaal ist leider super laut und unbequem. Wir haben eine Getränkeflat gebucht, aber das Personal ist beim Abendessen so überlastet, dass man kaum dazu kommt, ein Getränk zu bestellen. Die Auswahl ist gut, es gibt ein paar nicht ausgeschilderte, vegane Sachen. Der Pool ist groß, es gibt einen eigenen Kinder Pool Bereich mit Liegen für Erwachsene. Das Hotel ist fast direkt am Strand, man muss nur wenige Meter laufen. Der Strand ist groß und mäßig gefüllt gewesen. Je nach Wasserstand gibt es aber große Steine. Es gibt außerhalb einen schönen Spielplatz. Ich würde dieses Hotel nur buchen, wenn man einen Mietwagen hat. Parkplätze waren außerhalb der Saison mäßig verfügbar. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a7e558e3-92e8-41f4-aa7b-a4c3d698d5e4-1760334938008.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/eee5b309-abbe-4891-9a8e-3b7e1cab333b-1760334931922.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4b86aeb7-349d-4b98-978d-9f7d9a5a196b-1760334937086.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6e97b140-ae0c-4021-b57e-f61cc02aeee3-1760334934184.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Melia Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Eric 26 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Spa was good, pool facilities good. Dinner time food ok but seemed slightly under staffed and long queues would form in certain places. Same with breakfast although not as bad. ##### Eric Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Susan 18 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel pools are amazing, clean and with plenty of sun beds. My only comments would be that the kids food options need improving. The bolgnaise sauce was watery with hardly any meat and the lasagne was not fresh but the frozen type. Maybe some mashed potatoes, chicken fingers, homemade lasagne and Mac and Cheese would be great to have. Also the room shower has no raised platform so when you shower even with little water pressure the water will leak out making a huge mess. That is not ideal when you have small kids which is a shame when the bathroom is big enough to fit a bathtub. ##### Susan Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ignacio 7 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Personal muy amable.

The cleanliness is always top-notch, and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful—truly excellent customer service. The breakfast and dinner buffets offer a wide variety of delicious options, and vegetarians will have no trouble finding something satisfying. The location is great if you have a car—just 10 to 25 minutes to Chipiona, Rota, Jerez de la Frontera, and Cádiz. It’s also about a 1 hour and 45 minute drive to Seville, which makes for a nice day trip. The beds are incredibly comfortable (some of the best we've ever slept in!), and overall, the hotel continues to exceed our expectations. We can't wait to return again! ##### Lillian Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Silviu Mihai 4 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Zona ##### Silviu Mihai Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Anthony 12 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Très belle hôtel voiture nécessaire . ##### Anthony Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jonathan 10 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fantastic Holiday The hotel has everything you could wish for for a family holiday lots of swimming pools fantastic food and an amazing kids club.
