Pozo de las Calcosas Holidays from €713

Too far out from town and beach. Breakfast was the worst we’ve had. Cold beans, cold bacon, cold sausage cold everything.

This hotel should be perfect in every way. Sadly, we were there when some major construction was happening resulting in a large area being out of bounds. The construction then expanded into areas that were still open such as in the toddler splash pool. We had to stop our son using it as there were tools left lying around and open drains etc. Various areas randomly were taped off at different times so overall the hotel just didnt feel safe with a 2 year old so we were always a bit on edge.When we mentioned this to reception, they said they didnt think it was unsafe (despite us showing photos of another child picking up tools left at the side of the pool!) and even when we wrote a formal complaint, reception said they couldn't do anything about it and passed us the email of head office. Head office sent a standard 'sorry you were inconvenienced' letter but have failed to address the actual problem! The resort looks stunning and without the construction work, im sure it would have been fabulous. The a la carte restaurants are definitely where you want to eat as the buffet is loud, repetitive and generally just mediocre food. The shows are great and the rooms are fantastic.

This is a noisy area, including aqua aerobics around the pool every day and music in the front and back of the hotel. So if you want to be in that sort of area, it's great. Room was soundproof but there was no air conditioning. We were led to believe access to the spa was included but it was an extra 17 euros per entry. Hotel was clean, breakfast was good and beds were very comfortable. Bathroom was great and generally we had a good time.

it was not close to anything

The accommodation here is faultless. Spotlessly clean, spacious and modern. I could live in the apartment! You do really need a car if you’re staying here though and there’s no car parking on site - the closest is about a 10 min walk away. Also, they don’t include pool towels so it’s a €2 charge per day plus a deposit if you need one. Finally, we were told we could book a table for dinner in the evening but when we came to book, they said it’s not possible as the restaurants are not part of the hotel and we’re all closed on Mondays. Something to plan ahead for if you come.
