Jardin del Atlantico

Very disappointing. The food buffet was terrible hardly any choice and the staff keep pestering to take plates away.Paid extra for air conditioning and they wheeled in a huge air unit and place between the single beds and stuck the pipe out of the window and you had to empty the water every couple of hours otherwise it leaked onto floor.The location was next to seriously loud music venues.The sun beds were uncomfortable. The beach was quite a distance and down steep steps.On the positive side the cleaners did a brilliant job everyday cleaning the room.

I was really apprehensive about how bad this hotel was going to be after reading reviews but after a nice 4 nights here I am unsure what people writing bad reviews expect for a very cheap budget hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful. There are security who checked we were wearing our bands on a few occasions but I wouldn’t say they were rude or intimidating as some reviews say. The rooms are basic but clean and fresh towels and bedding daily. The beds are very uncomfortable and the sofa bed really is not a bed but manageable for a short stay. As in the description of the hotel there is no air conditioning, I wrongly thought the rooms would be ok because it’s October but it was very hot at night. Fans can be rented but we decided against this as we were only staying a few nights and weren’t convinced they would be very good. Before arriving I requested a quiet room as I had read the reviews saying it is noisy at night at the front of the hotel. We were given a room at the back on arrival, I am sure it was much quieter than the front rooms but there was an awful lot of terrible karaoke until 3am. Nice balcony with table and chairs. The pool areas are great, there are three large pools and a nice splash pool for kids. The pool is cleaned daily and it is clean and tidy with plenty of nice comfortable sun loungers. Children aren’t allowed floats in the pool, unsure why. The life guards are quite strict and I can see why reviews say they are a bit OTT. I can confirm we saw a few dead cockroaches but none in the rooms and certainly no mice!! Supermarkets etc outside the hotel, market on a Saturday just across the road. Don’t let the reviews put you off if you just want a cheap and cheerful holiday in the sun.

We stayed here the first week of October. We’d read the bad reviews but thought we’d be fine. We initially had a room at the front overlooking the bars and restaurants, and honestly, the noise was unbelievable! Karaoke until 3–4am every single night, so loud the walls were rattling. It didn’t matter whether we were in the bedroom or living room, we could still hear it. We go to festivals every year and are used to noise, but this was something else! By day 3, I thought if I heard Zombie one more time, I’d cry 😂 We asked reception if we could move rooms, and they were lovely and did their best to help. On day 4, we moved to the other side of the hotel, which was much, much better, although still noisy. The hotel itself is clean, the rooms have everything you need, the location is great and the reception staff were really nice. Even in October, though, the rooms were very hot, and you couldn’t leave the windows open because of the noise. You get what you pay for, and we knew it was a two-star hotel, so we weren’t expecting luxury. We’d have had very few complaints if it wasn’t for the noise, which really spoilt our stay.
