Not a five star, but great. The view is absolutely beautiful, room and hotel well maintained. Not much on offer for breakfast, but edible. Only dissapointment, was the very limited Wi-fi (only available in ONE SMALL section of the hotel). Overall, great place to stay at. More

Ok I don't know where to start, 1st we couldn't find the hotel so we called the number of the hotel and a lady answered and told us to keep driving until we found a yellow building. Then she told us that the yellow building wasn't their hotel and that their hotel was the one next to it (not very... More

There's a 5 star sign outside of this hotel and for sure this hotel is not a 5 star. Hotel location is just great if you want to see the area and enjoy beach as well as doing some sightseeing around. Definitely one should have a car for this hotel since it's quite far from the city though parking can... More

This hotel, seems to have received many bad reviews, but my wife and I thought it was great. First of all, the location is amazing, right on the beach and the beach itself is fantastic. The older rooms are a bit dark but they do have the best views; the newer rooms are nicer decor but as theyre mostly on... More

The location was great, and the room was clean and warm. Powerful showers. Yes, the decor might have been a bit dated and quirky but we enjoyed our stay. Helpful staff, Mr Muchaxo gave us his time and attention. The meals in the restaurant were fine, and enjoyed by our local friends.The windows were affected by salt spray but it... More

Decoration dates back 30 years, with rusted lamps, poor stone floors and concrete ceilings. Despite its fantastic location, right on top of a beach, the windows in the sea view rooms are so old and dirty you can't see outside! We complained that they should be cleaned but no to effect, so we had to clean them ourselves (see the... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at this hotel over the weekend of 19th July for a birthday party. All the party guests had been booked in here, and all bookings requested a sea view - but unfortunately we didn't get one.. but i didn't mind. All the rooms are very basic, but they have everything you need. The bed's aren't... More

We stayed for a week in July and really enjoyed ourselves. The pool wasn't super modern but was filled with seawater, was quiet and was staffed at all times. In addition lying watching the waves crash onto the rocks was amazing. Our room was clean, with a nice powerful shower and a great view of Guincho beach. The hotel was... More

We luckily only had to stay one night. It was a ghastly experience similar to some of the other reviews already written. We paid 95 euros for a supposedly 5 star hotel. The room we had was probably one of their worst, situated down a dark corridor with the paint peeling off the taps, the floor covered in sand and... More
