My husband and I and another couple stayed here for one week all inclusive at the end of Nov 2011. It was everything we hoped for. The staff, rooms, food, drink were excellent. It is in a lovely location with a long promenade just in front making it ideal for walking into the Marina or even into Playa Blanca. The... More

I have just returned from 7 days at the Gran Castillo with my wife and 2 children (aged 4 and 20 months). I believe that it offers very good value for money and anyone moaning about it not being of 5 star standard needs to take the price into account. In reality it would rate as a 4 star, although...

We went half board so we could discover the island & it really is something else. All the government attractions are at €8 per person (kids half). Recommend the Autos-Feber car hire next to hotel next to "Roper conglelados," around €13 per day (insurances all included), older car, but does the job. We had the worse weather while we were...

Just back from 10 days in this hotel and find myself agreeing with much that has been written in recent reviews. The outstanding feature was the staff who were without exception friendly, helpful and efficient. Our room was very comfortable with a separate lounge and spacious bathroom. Standards of cleanliness were high throughout the hotel. Food probably falls short of... More

I visited with my girlfriend for a week on 28th Jan-3rd Feb 2012 - luckily the weather was good and was warm enough to sunbathe, as long as you stayed out of the wind and the main pool was warm enough to swim in. It was quite quiet in the hotel, which was good, there was never a problem getting... More

Had a fantastic weeks all inclusive holiday booked as a late deal. From the moment I saw the hotel I got a feel good factor, freindly and efficient checkin and a glass of champagne to boot. The room was spotless and spacious and had no complaints on this front. Branded drinks were available at no extra cost (johnnie walkers, smirnoff,... More

From the minute we arrived at Gran Castillo we already loved it. Our flights had been slightly delayed so we were glad to finally be there and when we were greeted immediately with a glass of champagne it certainly set the tone for the rest of the holiday. Our room was beautiful, really bright and spacious as were the public... More

Just back from a fantastic two week stay in this great hotel. Recent reviews, suggesting a drop in standards had us a bit worried, which took the edge off the usual "looking forward to". There is much discussion on whether this hotel is worthy of its 5* claims and I do take on board some of the concerns, however, you... More

Just come back from an extremely enjoyable all inclusive week at this hotel. We found all the staff extremely friendly and helpful, the hotel is in a superb position for the lovely walks along the coast and the food very varied and very well presented. There were Chinese and Italian restaurants but although we did try the Chinese one evening,... More
