Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was a treat! The rooms were nice and clean, and being right on the beach with kitesurfing in the afternoon was a real bonus. However, the service was a bit lackluster, especially the welcome felt transactional. The location overlooking the beach was perfect to relax, though Spanish eating times might need some adjusting. Dining was just okay, but the fresh fruits were a nice touch.
The hotel is ideally located right on the beach, offering a beautiful setting for a relaxing stay. The rooms are modest, so don't expect too much in terms of luxury. The service is a mix of helpfulness and occasional oversights. The dining options are basic, but the highlight is the garden bar overlooking the beach. Overall, a convenient spot for beach lovers, although noise can be an issue at times.
The hotel has a basic room with a bath for my wife and a utility to make tea or coffee. The rooms have air conditioning with a heater, which is great, but they are quite basic. The service, although friendly and helpful, initially ignored us until we sat down at a table, showing good intentions afterward. The location, although stunning and right on the beach for windsurfing and kitesurfing, is slightly out of town in Tarifa. The dining options, including a breakfast buffet starting late at 9 am, offer plenty of choices but may not suit early risers. The facilities are convenient for a more chilled-out visit.
