Maxorata Adventure Holidays

We stayed at this hotel expecting a 4-star experience, but unfortunately it fell well below our expectations. The biggest issue was the lack of air conditioning in the rooms. It was extremely hot, making it very difficult to sleep. When we raised this with reception, we were simply told to open the window, which only resulted in bugs coming into the room. We also spoke to other guests who said they were experiencing the same problem, so it clearly wasn’t an isolated issue. The rooms also lacked basic amenities such as bathrobes and slippers, which you would normally expect from a hotel of this standard. The beds were uncomfortable, and my mum experienced back pain during our stay. The hotel itself is in need of a complete refresh. The lobby looked dated, with old, mismatched sofas that certainly didn’t give the impression of a 4-star property. Housekeeping was also inconsistent, if we left our towels hanging up, they assumed we didn’t need any fresh ones and didn’t replace them. The food was acceptable, but it was very bland and often lacked flavour. The beach next to the hotel was disappointing. The sand was dark, sticky, and poorly maintained. Walking along the seafront, we passed what appeared to be a derelict building covered in graffiti, as well as a nearby camping area, which really detracted from the surroundings. The only real highlights were the swimming pool and the terrace attached to our room, which had a lovely view. Overall, we were disappointed.

This is our fifth visit to the Elba carlota hotel and have never been disappointed The staff are amazing and the food is of the highest standard Cannot recommend highly enough and will return again

Nice garden, pool and Ocean view. The toilet was very specious, there were two large mirrors with two sinks separated WC and separated specious bathroom with a bath tap and separate shower. A massive room with the sitting area and a nice balcony with sits and table with the ocean view.

The staff were super friendly and helpful. Our room was ready early when we arrived. The hotel was very calm and the guests extremely friendly. The restaurant was clean, food was good and it never felt overcrowded.

We stayed here for 5 nights for a break for some winter sun. Initially the room seemed decent - double bed was just two single beds pushed together though. Requested a room upstairs when checking in but told they were fully booked so unable to accommodate. A couple of minor broken bits in the room (kitchen drawer, loose shower drain cover) but nothing that majorly affected our stay. Room was spacious and complex was conveniently located. The majority of people staying here are older so the place is very quiet. There is little atmosphere around the pool and the pool itself was very cold. We were told to keep the noise down by another guest because we were talking at normal volume walking past their apartment when coming home from an evening out. Our room must have been right by where the cleaners worked from as there was a lot of noise from trolleys going past from 8am onwards. All of the cleaning staff were really friendly and lovely. The room was cleaned on the third and fifth days; the bedding was never changed though. The pool bar was good but only open sporadically - this place is run independently from the hotel. The guy was hot and cold and seemed to have a pop at another guest, but was alright with us. We came across two cockroaches inside our apartment on the final day - we got rid of one ourselves and the cleaning staff took care of the second one.
