La Puebla Holidays from £370

Excellent hotel, great staff. Lovely surroundings, enjoyed a couple of nights sitting on the terrace listening to the cicadas. Restaurant menu is a bit limited, pork or fish with one lamb dish but all the food was very tasty, waiters attentive but not hovering. Fab views if eating outside. Loads of parking and a lovely drive up the hill to get there.

All ok but no pool in use. It said seasonal use only but we presumed that the beginning of october would still be busy/warm enough but it wasn’t to be

The property itself is excellent. The rooms are well proportioned, especially the bathrooms, and 3 pools means there is plenty to go around. However the pools were very cold compared to the swimming pools in Benidorm the week before with similar sun cover and air temperature. Also the property seems to catch the wind excessively, there wasn't a day where your towel was safe on your sunbed from being blown away. The kids club wasn't promoted so we had no real idea if it was working it not - I personally think the resort is better suited to couples than families as the atmosphere is very relaxed (too relaxed if you've got young kids). The kids entertainment on the terrace starts too late (2230). The food was well prepared and presented, if you are into your Spanish themed dishes you will appreciate it, if you've a more British palette the eating in options are not really for you. The complex was extremely quiet the week we were there, weirdly so. The most people we saw at one time was about 50 in the restaurant, other than that there seemed to be more staff than customers. Overall it's a lovely relaxing hotel for older guests or those looking for peace and tranquility.
