Hotels All-inclusive in Andalusia

Food/Drink - Firstly we could not fault the breakfast this was the best meal of the day without a doubt - loads of options including cereals, fruit, toast, “fry up” cooked options, sweet pastries, donuts, biscuits and more! Lots of hot and cold drink options from the many machines as well

Snack wise throughout the day not much to choose from other than plain crisps and nuts from the main bar plus stale single sandwiches…sigh, but drinks wise options of hot/cold drinks available all day so we made the most of that at least

Myself and my partner have just returned home from our 6 night all-inclusive stay at this hotel. We arrived to a bad start - the receptionist didn’t speak much English and couldn’t answer many of our initial questions

It’s fair to say we got bored of pizza and ice cream quickly! Meal times for dinner are rather late aswell with the earliest sitting at 8pm followed by 9pm

For example when we checked out all we got was a “okay” from the receptionist - he didn’t even ask if our stay was all okay, didn’t thank us for staying or even wish us a safe journey home or anything like that! Again, I assume this was either down to his lack of English or just pure rudeness - or both! Either way the lack of English language spoken at this hotel was honestly quite shocking

The first room we were given we had to request to be moved due to stains on bedding, bad smells from bathroom area and pictures on the wall literally hanging down/falling apart

We never ate at the food station at the pool so cannot comment on what it was or what they had to offer. The hotel shop had great prices and they never overcharged on items

Lovely hotel, great staff, great facilities food was fantastic with loads of variety well located for a bit of sightseeing and culture, really enjoyed our stay!

We loved that there was so much to do for kids and the staff were all so friendly and welcoming.

The hotel was spotless, so clean and tidy. The facilities were fantastic, great for everyone, food was delicious and so much variety. Staff friendly and they make you very welcome

Great hotel for families with plenty of pools, dining options and access to the beach. I would say quality of food is just average and desserts in particular are limited variety. But all in all we had an excellent stay

The hotel entertainment was very entertaining with loads of fitness and fun activities like water aerobics and bingo

The hotel offers plenty of activities to keep you entertained throughout your stay. The all-inclusive bar was excellent, with a wide selection and top-quality alcohol brands (not the cheap stuff!)

I've also checked 5 different cakes, I don't even like cakes, every single one was delicious. Choice of alcohol bevarages on all inclusive option is far above average

All the staff were so friendly and helpful. Great range of branded drinks at the bar.

Greatest food quality in all inclusive setup I've ever experienced

Forget local options, you can have ballantines with cola or gordon/beefeater with tonic. 8+ different coctails, coffee and tea available from 9:00 to 00:00. Very impressed with quality provided, enjoying my stay!

Every single staff member was polite and friendly. The food was amazing, the hotel grounds and facilities - beautiful and our room was perfect. I would highly recommend this hotel, you will not be disappointed

Fantastic Holiday The hotel has everything you could wish for for a family holiday lots of swimming pools fantastic food and an amazing kids club. We had an amazing holiday and will definitely go back there again.

Another great little break at Costa Ballena. Despite the long queues at check in, the staff worked through the lines promptly. Food at the buffet was ok, has been better in the past, same with the pool restaurant

The location is great if you have a car—just 10 to 25 minutes to Chipiona, Rota, Jerez de la Frontera, and Cádiz. It’s also about a 1 hour and 45 minute drive to Seville, which makes for a nice day trip

This is our 4th time staying at this hotel, and we absolutely love coming back! The cleanliness is always top-notch, and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful—truly excellent customer service

This hotel is AMAZING! We have been here 3 times already and we love it! It is so clean and family-friendly, the food is amazing, etc. We loved that spa, service, and accessibility to the beach

The beds are incredibly comfortable (some of the best we've ever slept in!), and overall, the hotel continues to exceed our expectations. We can't wait to return again!

This all-inclusive was rather exceptional considering the price. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and our suite was very spacious. The bathrooms were big, but the shower wasn't adjustable

For the amount of money paid including "everything" I'm a bit septic about it. No drinks when you first got into the room, no beer before 10. 30am, from 1100 pm drinks mega expensive

Also I'd recommend upgrading to all inclusive gold as it's a great add on to skip ques and dine in a lovely location overlooking the sea (24 hrs drinks all top brands and separate areas to relax as hotel was very busy

Various good choices and SUPER, SUPER KIND AND NICE RESTAURANT AND BAR STUFF!!! THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH!!!

I'd give it 4 star and recommend it to people who are looking for fun and not heavy unlimited drinks

We didn't use the pool or facilites around the pool including animation activities,,however, noticing the number of happy people pkaying around there and later at the evening animations activities everyday, we assume that these facilites and animation stuff were both much appreciated by the guests

The team there is simply amazing. The resort itself is stunning — beautifully maintained, relaxing, and incredibly family-friendly. The food and service at every restaurant were outstanding,

A special mention also goes to Laura from the crèche, who was absolutely fantastic with our daughter. Ellie adored her, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing she was in such caring and capable hands

And let’s just say, both my liver and my wardrobe are breathing a sigh of relief! I’m writing this as we soak up the final hours of sunshine, perfect temperatures, and those absolutely breathtaking views

We just spent a wonderful week at Ikos Andalusia as a family of three with our 3-year-old daughter, Ellie, and it truly exceeded all our expectations

​The food is next-level: think Michelin-quality à la carte dining with premium included drinks—that was the real magic. A few restaurants and a buffet available

Restaurants good, lots of choice however, book well in advance if you prefer to eat early. We had room service a couple of times as table bookings were too late for us. room service was very good and relaxing

Food you have to travel to the other hotel complex to get your meals we opted for full board no drinks with meals and over priced water and wine

We opted to eat evening meals away from the hotel as it wasn’t as relaxing as we had hoped. Good food at times excellent other times the odd poor day but we could always find something delicious

So the pod machines on the web pages must be in other rooms? We walked for a coffee most mornings in the centre we enjoyed the walk and the coffee out. The position of the hotel for the beach is excellent

Often the outdoor eating area was closed or managed to the point I had to set my own place. The noise in the dinning room was over bearing and not all adult although not so many children

Irish bars just outside so you can always go for drinks out of the hotel. The walk to the centre is a lovely walk the steps were a welcome daily challenge

Stayed her in October the weather was brilliant and hot day and evening. Sleep was good hotel is the adult only side to the complex group beds were large and orthopaedic

There needs to be more staff at the lobby bar, or another bar for the evening. The queues are too long in the evening. Obviously more staff could mean higher price but it would be worth it

The whole entire staff, from the concierge, valet parking to the guy working late in the gift/store were polite, professional and accommodating to say the least

Overall a great hotel with very good facilities. Staff were always very helpful with great communication. Just a couple of points to improve the experience at the hotel

Fantastic stay at the Sol Marbella Estepona - Atalaya Park Service was brilliant, food was fantastic. Great area around the swimming pools. All inclusive drinks were great

There are vending machines inside the hotel with snacks ,drinks and medicine so if you're in need of something late at night it's a good option

There are 3-4 pools , golf court,tennis courts, children rooms for entertainment, bars and so on. The room we were in was relatively clean and spacious and had almost everything (but not bedstands) you'll need

They are working hard, but it seemed like the staff at Royal Andaluz was enjoying their work more :) Pool area: - the aqua fun pool for kids is located at a place that stays in the shadow in the morning and the water is super cold - it's only allowed for height between 80 and 150 cm, so parents with toddlers are not invited, which is a bummer for toddlers who most probably won't go on a ride by themselves...

A last word about the buffet area if you like to have a romantic or quiet breakfast or dinner you will be disappointed the restaurant area will be very big and crowded

Entertainment for kids: - although there was some program for kids under 3, in reality it just meant the kids could join the older children, but the actual activity in the calendar started 30-40 minutes into the scheduled time - sometimes it seemed like the staff couldn't handle so many kids who sometimes preferred playing on the playground instead of joining the games they didn't understand - there...

We stayed here for a very special family holiday last week and the hotel, staff and food was excellent. I can't fault any aspects of the hotel, we each had excellent rooms, the staff were friendly and very accommodating

My only criticism might be that they charge for the safe in the room, which isn't something I've experienced recently in hotels over the past 5-6 years or so, but at €3 a day, its not a huge issue

The pool is absolutely huge, and that was a big plus for us, as the kids spent most of the day at the pool area and enjoyed the kids splash park during its opening hours

There can be a long wait for the lift as alot of people need to get to and from higher floors to restaurant etc

The hotel was ok and staff were friendly and helpful but mealtimes were very busy

Some of the bar staff could be kinder. Lovely reception staff. All inclusive was very basic. Overall it was ok though. Lovely area, 10 min walk from sea front.

The resturant food was excellent, plenty of choice and The La Gioconda resturant was amazing, we thoroughly enjoyed it. We frequently used the cafeteria La Griego. All the staff are friendly and make you very welcome

We like the location of the hotel as it is a nice walk to the shops and beach

Same thing happens in bar there is not enough tables and chairs for people to watch shows and that resulted in grumpy pushy people trying to force chairs in front us blocking us in i found this too stressful and i got up and left and did not go in there again during our stay

Beautiful hotel ,excellent pools and location......going back this year.....

The location is super, right on the seafront. Welcoming and very helpful staff especially on reception. Gets very busy when groups arrive. Food was fresh, varied and plentiful

If you want them clean its €1 per towel on Mondays. Food/drink- This hotel has a variety of package options but we went all inclusive. The drinks are great, some of the better ones ive had in hotels

Food wise the breakfast is a typical all inclusive style, yoghurts, fruits, cereals and cooked food. Lunch and dinner has a good variety but doesnt have the 'typical' english food that many expect

So much choice and amazing salads! Room cleaning was great. Two separate pool areas, one buzzing with activity and one much quieter - your choice Been here several times. Better now since ALUA ! Will be back!

Outside the hotel there are lots of restaurants, shops and souvenier shops all of which are a good price. There is a bus stop right outside the hotel

Had 11 days here from 6 Sept with 4 friends ,a most enjoyable holiday staff ,rooms, food excellent ,a very spanish hotel but we loved that,nothing was to much trouble, so well done,The only downside for next year there is no all inclusive,which we thought was excellent

Although they advertised free parking person said only for 2 spots and I would have to find my own parking.

Nothing too much All staff dealt with current issues without impacting on our stay Made to feel welcome from minute 1 Animation team really good and engaged with all guests

Best of the Best Excellent hotel with lovely staff whom were very helpful

The treatment of staff is excellent. Always friendly and with a smile. The facilities and food are very good. And the animation team... Brutal. Always encouraging children and adults. Great team. Congratulations...

There are different offers on the seashore to suit every budget, if you book in advance you can get full board for less than 100 euros per day (per couple)

Wonderful hotel. The reception staff is very nice and always ready to help in the best way. Especially always with a smile. Very good cleaning and restaurant, good food and many options. I recommend to anyone

We stayed here in September and were amazed by the friendliness, cleanliness and entire atmosphere in the resort

For me this was a real paradise! First of all, rooms are clean, beds very comfortable. Very friendly staff working there. There is a nice pool and a lot of beds where you can enjoy full day in the sun or shadow

Lovely location and beautiful beaches. The amenities, room and spa were very nice. The food was very good with a lot of variety and theme nights to make it different. The quality of the food was very good

Nearby you have a beautiful Andalusian type of town called Ayamonte where you can go for the day and take a ferry to take you to Portugal for shopping in just 20 minutes

There is always a nice entertainment for those who like. I am definitely coming back here. Big thank you to everyone who works in this lovely place

Food is amazing for all inclusive and bar service again is excellent with quality drinks

Lovely relaxing holiday, this hotel is very clean and rooms spacious and well equipped for a stress free stay, fridge with water and soft drinks topped up everyday, safe included at no extra charge which was good

We had a lovely time here,staff were fabulous and friendly always cleaning and polite. Room was good and mini fridge with free soft drinks replenished daily

Food was good and something for everyone,definitely could not go hungry and the Asian restaurant was good as well with great staff. Reception staff were great and a few problems with the room were fixed in half an hour

On arrival one of our rooms were upgraded to a sea view suite a pleasant surprise! Our rooms were spotlessly clean and well maintained all week, the free soft drinks were an added bonus

Lots of drinks on offer all day and the bar staff in the hotel reception bar were lovely particularly the female staff, we loved the sangria! On Friday night there was a private function and the hotel went from being peaceful to very chaotic the noise in the hotel corridors went on till very late! The games room pool table is not level and some of the games didn’t work

The hotel staff could not have been more helpful in assisting us in dealing with taxis, pharmacies, extending our stay, and ensuring we were both fed and cared for after the incident

Saying that, if I could give the hotel 6 stars, I would. A medical emergency complicated our stay

Great Service at the reception on May 12th in the afternoon. The gentleman gave us a wonderful room with a breathtaking view. Excellent cuisine. The location of the hotel is one of the best in Europe.

We stayed at the Barossa Palace for a cycling vacation at the end of the season

The decisive factors were the all-inclusive option, the pool area, the indoor playground, the proximity to the beach, the German-speaking staff, and the children's entertainment

The restaurant had high-quality food, but unfortunately, it lacked a bit of variety and theme nights. The breakfast was first-class

We don’t have pool towels, and it’s only 2 bottles of water in your room so we are now off to buy some. Premium all inclusive as described this is not

The food on the whole was good , all meal times had plenty of choice. We always plan to go out a few nights to break it up

The room was massive with a walk in wardrobe which was great. There was a large bath in the room which the kids loved. The pool was excellent, plenty of area to enjoy and a great area for the kids

We have just come back from a 9 night stay here. We had a great time and really enjoyed staying at this hotel. We booked a beach suite which made life alot better as a family of four

Pool toilets not very clean, some staff rude, some nice. Not a lot of English speaking, but I get that we are in Spain. But it was hard at times asking for things. No tea and coffee in room was disappointing

Room very basic very tired looking in fact the desk almost fell apart when a chair nudged it. Food awful, cold, repetitive, too busy, no organisation of eating times

we went all inclusive as we know we can have all the types of drinks we like and can choose to eat 3 meals if we wanted to,most days we had breakfast and 1 other meal

the restaurant in don pedro was only serving breakfast whilst we were there not sure why but it didn't impact us having to go to pablo restaurant 4 lunch or dinner

our patio had 4 broken tiles which could be a trip hazard and our sunbeds had bird poo on them when we arrived and outside wasnt cleaned all week ,some of the chairs around bar area were dirty and weren't cleaned all week,outside our gate the area was awful it desperately needed good proper wash down

we did put towels down each day but we were on our beds before 9am Most days and we did witness staff putting notes on beds informing people if they didnt return within 1 hour and 15 mins then towels would be removed

air con in our room was very good infact we had to turn it off at night as we were too cold. we had continental breakfast on our terrace 1 morning which was lovely. all staff we encounted were lovely and work hard

last year we were closed to the bar area where there was more hedges and trees and our room was constantly covered in flies ,so it was a nicer experience this time

Best vacation ever! We are here now and I love this hotel, the staff is very friendly, cleaners are amazing, and the animation team is wonderfull and you can see that they love what they are doing

And even though there are a lot of people the staff will do everything to help you and even remember you, amazing people! Thank you for making our holiday this special, for me its a 5 star experience

First I was a bit afraid that there was not enough to do, but the hotel is so big and with enough animation, and with the beach behind its beautiful and we have not enough time to do everything

I am really glad we choose this hotel. Everyday I wake up here I can't believe how beautiful it is here

The reception staff offered no apology and provided minimal information, exhibiting unhelpful and rude behavior throughout our stay. Despite the rocky start, the holiday ultimately proved to be amazing

Our initial impression of this hotel was awful with the check-in process, lasting 90 minutes, which was particularly challenging with a tired three-year-old in tow

The bar has lots of choice of drinks however the cocktails aren’t included with all inclusive so you have to pay a small supplement if you want one

Everything was perfect Definitely 5 stars facility Big room eith nice view Comfortable bed Nice food and drinks Lot of activities. Definitely we will come back Top top top top

Very underrated I think, what a beautiful place and well maintained kept within it's authenticity. Food and drinks were lovely

We had a wonder holiday at Playacalida! The hotel has everything from amazing views to a small onsite shop. The infinity pool was breathtaking and the lazy river and slides kept us all busy for hours

There is a bus stop 5mins away that costs £1 to get into town which was great! Lots of daytime and evening activities and the kids club was good. We will definitely be returning

It was fabulous The swimming pool is amazing. The rooms were clean and the beds were so comfortable. We had a garden which we loved
