I have just come back from a weeks stay in this hotel and I can completely recommend it. The rooms are spacious and everywhere is spotlessly clean. The staff are very helpful and all speak excellent English. Food is good and fresh, the only downside being that by the end of a week it gets a bit boring but that is usual with a buffet service. The dining hours are also much longer than the usual 2 hour span and there is Cava outside the dining room before breakfast to which you can help yourself and also there is usually a "taster" drink before the evening meal. The wine list is very limited. Happy hour in the bar is between 5 - 6 pm. There are plenty of free sunbeds around the 2 swimming pools and we never had a problem finding one. The hotel request that you do not reserve them with towels first thing in the morning. This hotel doesn't allow smoking inside which I found particularly pleasant, being a non smoker. The pool bar has quite a good menu and is inexpensive. There are 2 good pool tables inside the hotel and 2 table tennis tables near the pool outside. Mini golf is also available. There is a small charge for all 3 activities. Evening entertainment consisted of a piano in the lounge bar and shows/discos in the lower bar. Nightlife is fairly low key. The walk into Playa Blanca is good, being right along the beach front with shops and bars sprinkled along the way. We didn't walk it at night so I can't say how safe it is, but it was ok in the day. It takes about 20 mins to get into Playa Blanca at a slow pace.

Just to echo the comment by COOEEE, paragraphs would help no end.

I hope you don't mind if I make a suggestion? There was a lot of information in your review but it was quite hard to read all bunched up together. Reviews that are broken up into smaller paragraphs and have a blank space between them are easier for others to read and it also gives a nice overall look to the review.

Good review but could do with some more info to gain higher ratings. Take a look at other reviews to get an idea of the level of info that is needed to gain higher ratings. x
