Had to wait two and a half hours for room to be ready, and the safe didn’t work , not worth the 400 euros a day .

Disappointment in Cartaya

From the moment I arrived at reception to check in, the main goal of the staff was to get extra money out of me. The room I had booked wasn’t ready because they were very busy but I could have an upgrade for an extra €40 per night and that room was ready so I accepted as we were tired and hungry. Parking was available, but there was a charge. Again I accepted. There was a charge for the dogs even though they did not provide ANYTHING for them. Again I accepted. Our suite had a safe but yes, you’ve guessed it, there was a charge. You could get a towel for the pool from reception but you had to give them your credit card details. Overall I was completely disappointed. The hotel is too big and impersonal and it was not my cup of tea

Die Zustände am Wochenende waren unausstehlich! Wocheinvasionen, die dad Schöne Hotel zi einem Rummelplatz gemacht haben. Lautstärke war bis spät in die Nacht furchtbar. Auch im Speisesaal !. Jakusie war voller schreiender Kinder mit Spielzeug im Wasser. Und dad, obwohl der Eintritt etst ab 15 ist. Also: Erholungsfaktor am Wochenende ist gleich null!! Abendprogramm entspricht krinem 4 Sterne Hotel. Grundsätzlich gehört das Hotel, bzw. Die Flure, Türen und Bäder renoviert. Das Personal war trotz aller Umstände sehr freundlich! Das Personal war

Hola, acabamos de llegar de las vacaciones, y la verdad que lha sido buena experiencia., es un hotel dónde los niños lo pasan muy bien con el mini parque acuático, además todo el día hay actividades tanto para niños como psra adultos. Las habitaciones muy amplias. Por poner alguna pega, es el tema de tener que enseñar la tarjeta siempre que tengas que pedir algo, y el bufet para comer cortito y poca variedad donde elegir. Pero recomiendo este hotel.

Bel hôtel avec un personnel à l écoute et serviable Nous avons été très bien accueilli avec un agent d accueil qui a fait l effort de parler français Notre suite était très grande, propre et confortable avec un accès rapide à l espace aquatique Ce dernier était très sympa pour les enfants Nous regrettons néanmoins la température de l’eau dans le bassin principal L accès à l espace VIP avec la formule all exclusive Royal était très agréable Le SPA était très sympa également Seul bémol à ce séjour l espace restauration qui propose des menus un peu répétitif Nous sommes restés 7 jours avec seulement une vingtaine de personne dans l hôtel pour un mi avril du dimanche au vendredi. Par contre une vague d espagnol à débarqué le vendredi et nous nous sommes retrouvé à plus de 1000. Le restaurant s est alors transformé en cantine familiale où il était difficile de s entendre Pour résumer un ensemble plus que correct pour cet hôtel de Cartaya

Todo perfecto, excepto los útiles de aseo en el baño, tuvimos que ir a pedir varias veces cosas a recepción, toallas de baño, gel de baño, papel higiénico... Bueno y comentar que si cambian las almohadas harían un favor al descanso de los clientes. Por lo demás todo genial. Volvería sin duda

Lo mejor, las piscinas, los toboganes y el equipo de animación. Lo peor, la zona de suelo rojo de las piscinas que no se limpiaba a diario y se quedaba pegajoso con las bebidas que la gente derrama y con los restos de los pinos (resina y agujas). Tampoco me gustó que el todo incluido no lo incluyera todo porque había un todo incluido imperial que sí lo incluía todo. Si el todo incluido no lo incluye todo porque hay otra categoría superior que sí lo incluye, debería dejar de llamarse todo incluido
