I think the room, staff was excellent. The breakfast itself was a typical buffet that sat under lights but wasn’t as hot as you would hope for. Fresh fruit was in short supply. I appreciate that the hotel wasn’t full and therefore so as not to waste food, choice was limited. Not a complaint just an observation.

Very good "resort" type hotel. Very friendly staff, clean. Would benefit from real access to sea with a beach and less concrete near the pools: More trees / green. Will come again, for sure.

Nice if you just want to relax

Really nice hotel, great food and variety of choice. Room was amazing patio that walked out straight onto pool area. Bed and pillows very comfortable Drinks hut was a little manic, you’d to time it right or you could be stand waiting a good 10-15mins Entertainment on an evening very poor, day entertainment were lack luster, aqua fit in pool was so underwhelming I gave up, no energy from staff member at all

A great hotel in a nice and quiet area just outside of La Manga. If you want nightlife around you don't stay here, it's in a quiet residential village and you need a car. The rooms are lovely, spacious, bathroom is big with great shower. What I loved about the hotel is the openness, the hotel has a big area in the middle with 3 pools and a massive area for chilling under pergolas when the heat gets to much. One area which needs improving is the food or more the keeping it hot .. most dishes are under heat lamps and some are not on so they get luke warm quickly. Fix the lamps and it would be fine. I would definitely stay here again.

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.

grosse déception avec cet hotel isolé de tout.20 minutes de marche pour accéder à un arrêt de bus.Aucun service de navette proposé.Ambiance hopital : bleu pale et blanc de partout sauf à l'entrée.des couloirs immenses, les chambres sont confortables et spacieuses, il manque par exemple des mouchoirs pour un 4 étoiles..Et surtout l'isolation phonique entre votre chambre et le couloir est inexistante.Aucune, mais vraiment aucune gaité dans la décoration et l'aménagement de cet hotel.Bar de la piscine/Terrasse sous bâche plastique.Pas terrible avec un sale temps ! Aucun endroit cocooning.Le réfectoire est plus horrible que celui du lyçée de ma fille...Des serviettes posées au sol pour protéger des inondations.Buffet médiocre et sans grande variété.Heureusement que le personnel est sympathique dans l'ensemble.Un petit coucou à Aida a qui nous avons appris quelques mots de français et qui s'est montré vraiment agréable.Pour l'extérieur , les façades ont des coulures de rouille, sur le blanc : c'est pas joli ! Les leds qui courent sur les arcades ne fonctionnaient pas toutes.Il y a vraiment de gros efforts à faire pour rentrer cet hotel agréable et joyeux.Pas d'animation ! Ennui mortel .J'aurais bien aimé un geste commercial sur la demi pension lors de nos absences, aller manger dans cette salle sans vie pour des vacances , heu ? bof!! Pour rappel mon commentaire se base sur un 4 étoiles.Concernant la région, lorsque vous aurez vu Carthagène, le reste a peu d'intérêt sans voiture
