We were looking for a small, local beach resort to spend a week and La Herradura seems to fit the bill. Much quieter than the larger Costa towns it still has a classy, upcoming feel to it.

Sol Los Fenicios sits just across the road from the beach. It has a small pool on the roof and it's rooms are small but comfortable. Service is what you would expect and we had no problems with our stay.

There is a very nice beach club across the street that rents loungers and umbrellas for 5 Euros a day. This is where we spent most of our time relaxing and reading. The hotel is a short walk away and each Sunday the club cooks up a giant paella feast right on the beach.
People come from all over for this local tradition.

Remember, this is a quiet town so don't come looking for anything other than rest and relaxation.

This hotel is located on the end of a main street with nice shops and restaurants nearby. However, the room we had was like a college dorm- small single beds and quite small. I've heard that there are nicer places to stay nearby. Staff was usually quite nice and helpful, except after 11 pm. when everything literally shuts down for the night. Next time I am in this area, I will try to stay at another recommended hotel as rated by other Trip Advisor members.

La Herradura Beach, where Sol Los Fenicios is located, gives you a small town feel on an otherwise metropolitan coast. The hotel is beautiful with clean rooms and very friendly staff. It is also easy to get to (even without a map) and has plenty of street parking. Breakfast is also included - its well worth it too!

The beach is also pretty clean and not very crowded. It was also very family-friendly, which was fine with us. The entire beach is made of smooth stones, which can get fairly hot by the afternoon. I highly recommend renting an umbrella and chairs (5 Euros per chair for the whole day).

There are also several restaurants and bars on the main street with good prices and excellent food. There are very few shops, but there is a small grocery store nearby.

Overall, I would stay here again. The hotel was beautiful and provided a relaxing atmosphere.

Stayed in this hotel June 2006. The hotel is situated at the end of a quiet road facing the beach at La herradura. The resort was very quiet and ideal for a romantic break etc. The hotel has a small roof top pool ( 3 floors up only) and there is good views over the beach/sea. The breakfast was good and the staff pleasant & helpful.
The rooms are spaceous, clean and typical of a good hotel chain(Sol/Melia/Typ etc).
The resort, LA Herradura, is not your typical Costa's resort. Its reserved, and leans towards the home country holiday makers ( Not a Benidorm).
Note: the resort is not cheap and a pint of lager will cost approx 4 euros and a typical bar meal approx 7 euros
However, I paid £28 for a twin room for two persons including Breakfast on the Sol Melia web site.
I could not find fault with this hotel.
If taking children please be aware this is a very quiet resort.
