I seem to be writing reviews on this hotel all the time - as we have visited there for over 10 years, sometimes two or three times a year. We have just got back after spending two great weeks with friends - because we stay there quite a lot we know a lot of the staff - so it is... More

Stayed at playa la arena for 10 nights from 24/4/12 to 4/5/12. On arrival we were greeted by two very cheerful receptionists. Check in was straight forward and did not take too long. Our room was on the fifth floor with views over the bay to the cliffs at Los Gigantes. Large balcony with a sun canopy if needed. The... More

Could not fault this hotel it was stunning, had high standards of cleanliness, great views and good food for all inclusive. There wasn't a mad scramble for sun beds and these were scattered around the pool area some in small, quieter areas. The staff were attentive and friendly. We did not go to the evening entertainment here as we'd stayed... More

very clean impressive hotel, stayed there from the 13th April.Food was sometimes very good and at other times a bit of a miss.can be very samey. you also have to be aware of what colour wrist band you have on, some bands dont cover ALL aspects of all inclusive. There seemed to be a tiered stysten regarding drinks. Didnt have... More

I stayed at this hotel with my partner and 3 children ( 8,10 and 12 ) between 2nd and 12th April. First impressions were good - large reception area, ( which always smelt clean and fresh ) and helpful staff. We were very happy with our adjoining 3rd floor rooms, which overlooked the pool and had decent sized balconies .... More

Liked best: Pools and drinking Cava in the piano bar pre dinner- straight from the bottle and proper glasses :-), Liked least: Struggling to think of anything but if pushed then the scrambled egg! Stayed with partner and two children AI and the hotel appealed to all of us. Found the hotel to be very clean, well presented and the... More

Bad... More

Just back and can agree with other reviews. Buffet food is a bit cold, drinks on AI are adequate but all acceptable overall. Resort is quiet and Hotel shuts down bars at 24.00 so no late disco noise. We used the local buses, 473 takes you all along the coast, 477 gets you back quicker and very cheap. Entertainment was... More

A wonderful stay! To summerise... Food: Lots of choice! A different theme each evening but always nice simple stuff like salads, soup, chips etc every night. Service always excellent. Yes food could be hotter, but this is part and parcel of all inclusive buffets but the benefit is that the food is plentiful. Room: Big room, bath and separate shower.... More
