Hotel terbaik di Costa Calma

I booked this hotel knowing it would be on the quiet side of the Island as it was our first holiday with my girl who is 15 months old. Within a 20 minute walk however, there is a shopping centre, spar shop, beach and some bars. We walked there on a few occasions and it was always quite pleasant. One day we caught the bus to the oasis wildlife park - this picks you up from the hotel across the road and is €5 per adult, the baby was free. There are some smaller mini markets nearby where we were able to pick up milk for the little ones bottles as there is a fridge in the room. Now onto the hotel: Staff - such lovely members of staff who were kind and welcoming. They always said hello to us and paid attention to my daughter at meal times, they offered to get us a highchair if we needed one. Entertainment - there was something on every day (except weds), a kids disco every night with party dances and music on around the pool which, we didn’t find invasive. Plenty of pool tables and table tennis as well as a gym if you wanted to use it. Food and drink - drink is a help yourself basis including alcohol. Every one was polite and no queues. Food was basic but edible, similar things every day which wasn’t a bad thing. My little girl can be picky but there was always something for her. Rooms - no air con but I knew this before we went. The bedroom has a large ceiling fan in situ. The staff had already put a cot in the room ready for us with bedding on. We had a small patio outside which was nice in the evening once the kid was in bed. We got a suite so there was a fridge in the room. Added my Netflix to the telly then took it off at the end. Shower is powerful. Overall the hotel is clean and tidy, the cleaners come almost every day and you can ask for new towels etc if required. It is a quiet hotel but it’s very relaxing. We were the only English people there for the first few days and it was not a bad thing, I still felt very comfy in the environment. We would go again.

The Hotel. The hotel is situated approximately 1hr 30 from the airport. Upon arrival at the hotel (20:30) check in was swift and I was given a glass of cava- which was nice. My allocated room was on the third floor- facing the side of the building with a partial sea view- (it’s what I booked) I was guided to my room by the receptionist- Roccino (Apologies if I’ve spelt this incorrectly). She was very helpful and polite-thank you. The Room. I had booked a double room - and it did not disappoint. There is plenty of storage - drawers and wardrobe space. There is a safe which I rented for the week- £2:70 per day. You get the key from reception - place at the lock on the safe and then tap in your four digit code. The key itself, can then be left inside the locked safe - without the need to carry with you. There is a kettle/ tea, coffee and a complimentary bottle of water. There is a fridge (empty ) but no mini bar. There is no plug point near to the long mirror - awkward to style your hair with any electrical appliance- I used the reflection of the flat screen tv on the wall. The bathroom was large with walk in shower with -body wash, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion. There are no tissues, slippers or robes. I noticed a couple of days into my stay that some guests had H10 beach towels. I enquired at reception where I could get one from- I was informed I should have been allocated one when I checked in. They are complimentary- but €3 if you want to exchange for a clean one during your stay. The Buffet Restaurant. Despite me arriving late in the evening, I was able to eat some lovely food- there was no shortage and it was fresh- replenished frequently. I found this throughout my stay. There was an excellent selection of meats and fish that were grilled for you as you wait. There was a lovely display of every salad item you cared to eat - and a good selection of hot sides too. The soups I ate were absolutely delicious- and piping hot too. Although I’m not a dessert fan- I did look what was on offer and it all looked delicious. At breakfast you can order your own omelette with a choice of vegetables/ ham. There is a juice/smoothie bar which are all blended from FRESH fruit- together with a platter of beautiful fresh fruits. There are tea/ coffee machines where you can get yourself. The servers will take orders for any wines beers etc. All throughout my stay there was always something available that I liked. The Pool Bar/ snack area. This is located pool side and serves the usual beverages and snacks. There is a small buffet - but you can scan the QR code and order freshly made food. There are always plenty of sun loungers available. Stromboli Restaurant. I was allocated a reservation as I was on an AI basis. The Caprese salad was tasteless and bland. The pizza was a little overcooked for my liking. Service was good though. There is a small hotel shop for essentials located near block one which essentially at the rear of

Myself and wife stayed at Apart hotel for 6 nights. It was very clean and comfy. The pool had only days before been completed after a refit and they did a superb job. All new liner, outside of pool immaculate and all new sun loungers. The restaurant we only used for breakfast but for €10 per person you had as much as you liked. It was very good value. We didn't have a kettle in our room on Arrival, but asked for 1 and got 1. All staff on site were very helpful and polite. Our room was very nice indeed. Only tiny issue it had no aircon so night's were warm.

I will try to summarise : I visited the hotel for 4 weeks to celebrate a “big” birthday. , partly I was alone Most of the time joined by other members of my family and friend. Reception / check in was lengthy as only one member of staff to deal with this for 7 of us. Most other queries involving reception also involved queuing for considerable time due to no staff. Room : I requested a sea view but the sea was only visible if I stood on tiptoes and peered over solar panels on the roof below. Several trips to reception to change room - in the end my family chose to upgrade my stay to the “my favourite club” and I was given a perfect room with beautiful sea view. Food : I cannot complain atall about the food , even after 4 weeks stay I still had choice , quality and absolutely no need to go hungry Likewise drinks - lots of choice and plentiful . No need atall to go thirsty Entertainment: as the hotel clientele is predominantly French a lot of the entertainment was geared to them. I knew this beforehand as I’d researched the hotel so was prepared. There was English included from 9.30 pm which some may find a little late. I was ok The animation team were mostly French but there were 2 members who stood out for me -Sara and Ozz -who tried so hard to keep us involved and in particular the days I was on my own really looked after me. Sara went 100 percent above and beyond to include my 7 year old granddaughter in the dancing in the evenings which made her holiday special Pools : outdoor pools freezing cold , indoor heated pool ok but the area around the pool was constantly full of puddles of water , extremely slippery and I fell on day 2 of my holiday -at 69 years old could have meant broken bones ! Thankfully I’m relatively strong boned but still made me very anxious to go in alone The lifeguard seem more interested looking at his mobile phone than keeping poolside dry Cleanliness : no problem here , everywhere was spotless an rooms cleaned towel change daily Beach : a 6/7 min walk down to beach over some rough terrain , but I managed ok . Bit of a climb back up but taken slowly if needed was fine. Lovely beach bar and sunloungers €5 cash only - wonderful sandy beach and fab waves! On the whole I had a good stay as did family and friends who came to join me over the month . (18 in total) My only reason for not giving 5/5 was the general attitude of SOME of the staff . They didn’t seem to be interested in their clients , some reception staff, most of the pool bar staff, some of the kitchen staff just didn’t seem to be interested in making us feel welcome . It sometimes felt like we were a bit of a problem being there and that was hard to understand for me. I’ve worked in hospitality and I know a smile and a warm welcome costs nothing . I was not a complainer atall I just wanted to feel valued and didn’t feel that sadly . But - 5/5 most certainly goes to Ozz and Sara 🎉🎉 they both made the difference!
