Cabogata Jardín Hotel & Spa in Retamar

Overall, a solid and family-friendly stay. We were allowed to check in early and use the pool, which was a great start. The Wi-Fi worked well, and the housekeeping staff went beyond just changing sheets—they cleaned the floors thoroughly. The food was quite good, especially for non-meat options, and the staff were responsive when we asked about ingredients or dietary needs.

The pool was clean and well-maintained—we saw it being cleaned every evening and morning—and we never had trouble finding a sun lounger. Rooms were spacious enough for our family of four (two adults, two kids), and we felt comfortable throughout the stay.

There were a few downsides: only a few of the poolside showers were functional, and getting to the beach involved a bit more walking than expected. The bar-restaurant in the center of the property is overpriced, so we’d recommend avoiding lunch there. Also, getting a towel from the spa required a deposit, which was a first for us. Lastly, the poolside toilet wasn’t flushing properly, which was inconvenient.

Still, despite a few hiccups, we had a good stay and appreciated the family-oriented setup and thoughtful service.

The suite was amazing, with great views of the pool and sea. Spacious and clean, and quiet. Staff were great. We had half board, and the buffet wasn’t great. Easy to park for free near the hotel

Always a great place. My kids look forward to coming back every year. Just a lot of fun, very relaxing, good environment.

We chose this over the more expensive sister hotel and it didn’t look the job for a two night stay. Retamar is very much a Spanish resort so the staff didn’t speak much if any English but Google translate got us through. The star of the show was the room, a Junior Suite with an excellent balcony facing the beach. Nice air double room and the hotel kindly put an extra bed in the living room so our two large teenagers could sleep in relative comfort there. The pool was nice and there are games and water slides available for younger kids. For even younger kids a mini water park seemed very diverting. This isn’t a luxury hotel but four star is fair and we had a nice time there.

On tuesday afternoon our flight was canceled and when we arrived at the hotel, the rooms were already ready. We had a small problem with the room and the young receptionist on that day helped with everything.Even booking a taxi for us the next day. We only stayed one night but the hotel looks good

I loved my stay here! Came for a conference which was just in front of this hotel so very convenient for me, a bit difficult to reach the centre at night, during the day there are a lot of buses. The location on the beach was amazing, breakfast very nice, rooms beautiful and clean. Thank you!

I stayed at the hotel for a night, it was really relaxing and I still regret why I didn’t stay longer! The atmosphere of the hotel was very pleasant and you could escape from the noisy world for a while ! Room : spacious, clean and neat with stunning sea view. Breakfast: divers, fresh , delicious

Bright, sorry hotel
The hotel has a very interesting architectural design which makes it bright and feel spacious.
The staff were very helpful.
Even though there were not many people staying at the hotel ( October) the bar stayed open until late and the barman was very friendly and helpful.
The only complaint would be that the shower was not brilliant and some woodwork around the doors in the room was rotten.
Breakfast was brilliant. Large buffet with lots of choice in a bright, light room overlooking the pool.
