SH Villa Gadea

Stayed for 8 nights with my son for a short holiday early May. Very familiar with the hotel and Altea town , been visiting this area and hotel for around 20 years . On arrival, no mention of the renovation works that were been carrying out , not a problem but this should have been mentioned beforehand. Easy check In by very welcoming reception, room was ready on arrival. Nice size room , but feel the rooms need updating. Coffee and tea facilities , but no espresso machine , just a kettle . No iron supplied in the room , this has to be requested. This should be standard in a five star hotel .Fresh bottle water was supplied some days in the room . Breakfast , wide variety of choices that would suit everyone’s needs . Did find that I had to keep asking for accoutrements on a couple of occasions. Did feel like I should not have to ask twice on two consecutive days for something I wanted and then to find the same empty bottle the next day ! On the day of my departure, we had an early ish pick up , normally not an issue for a coffee and a pastry etc , not this time . Never had that previously! Would say that as I have been coming here for twenty years , a welcome note and maybe a hello from the manager would be appropriate . My partner and me often stay in 5 star hotels .often revisiting them ,we always would receive a warm welcome back gift and even a note or hello for the management. Not at this hotel . All in all , would say we had a nice stay in a nice hotel . Not sure if I would revisit in the near future .

We booked a last minute treat for birthday celebrations and we arrived early, they kindly allowed an early check in as the room had been cleaned, I believe we also were upgraded but the hotel did not mention this. I say this as out Tom provided robes, slippers, wonderful amenities and a jacuzzi tub! This made it stay wonderful. We took time at the pool and beds were available, towels provided, and the drinks reasonable for a 5*hotel, we thoroughly our stay and to round things off the breakfast was plentiful and a great variety! Well done team SH Villa Gadea!

This is a beautiful 5 star hotel set on the beach just outside Altea. The hotel staff are truly fabulous, friendly and helpful.the furnishings are excellent, tasteful and modern with a hint of scandi. We love this hotel which has everything you need for a perfect holiday rest or break

This hotel is rated 5 stars but: 1. Hotel only provides 1 day of water & amenities. 2. no WiFi in the room. Only Lobby has WiFi

We celebrated my wife’s birthday in Altea. What a great hotel to stay in. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and above all happy. The level of cleanliness and care is rare to find. It is a huge compliment to the manager, who clearly demonstrates how to manage a hotel.
