Many guests highlight the helpful, polite, and professional staff including receptionists, cleaners, and animation team members like Pedro and Sergio who engage children well. The hotel’s pools and attached Aqua Splash water park are frequently praised for cleanliness and fun, especially for families with children. Guests appreciate the daily housekeeping service, consistently noting clean rooms despite some wear. The restaurant offers a wide variety of food options, including halal meals and fresh fruit, with many guests finding the buffet diverse and tasty. The hotel's location is considered good, close to both the beach and town center, yet quiet at night. Several reviews mention that rooms are outdated, small, and in some cases have maintenance issues such as mold, cracked tiles, and weak air conditioning with no controls. Food quality receives mixed feedback, with some guests describing it as basic, repetitive, or bland, and limited vegetarian choices. Complaints about limited sun loungers around the pool and the water temperature being too cold in the outdoor pools are common. Some guests report rude or unhelpful staff members, especially at the bar or security, and isolated incidents of poor customer service. Noise from nightlife and thin walls between rooms disturb some guests, especially families seeking quiet. Several guests report that the water park and children’s entertainment are only fully available in high season, affecting off-season stays.

Run down old hotel definitely not 4 star more like 2 stars . No kettle in room even when I asked for one , poor food selection see pics, 45 e for a safe in the room which had a key rather than a code , old bedding with cigarette burns in it, weak ac with no control, all inclusive options very poor, black mould in bathroom, booked through love holidays who couldn't care less about the issues, transfer from airport to hotel took nearly 3 hours would avoid. PS full of French people .

Stayed here many times, food is great, rooms tidy and well kept, it's close to the beach, and town, but still quiet at night, pools well maintained, good entertainment and bar staff very nice. Great water park attached to it too! Great for young families, and couples

Big hotel in an excellent location on a quiet street but close to nightlife and the long beach. Lovely coastal walks. Very helpful staff. Rooms a bit tired, but fine. Good value. It was kept very clean. Lots of choice at meals with fresh fruit particularly plentiful. Indoor pool was a not very warm. Outdoor pools were cold! Sea was warmer.

This hotel has been not but big disappointment. Upon booking you look at the pictures provided - beautiful rooms - splash park- playground - big buffet ,however, upon check in you go to your room that is so dated , beds are camp beds , bathroom had tiny bath tub that hardly fit an 8year old child with legs bend … cracked tiles , towels with holes , not the cleanest . All entrainment adversities for kids is not there unless you book between June and 1st week of September , we have sadly a found out at check in that aquapark is shut from 14th September which was not advertised when we were booking in . Playground is literally a tube with a shape of caterpillar and that is it . Throughout our 7days stay kids disco happened only twice for 30 minutes each . And there was no other kids activities . Food wise also a big disappointment very basic , very little to choose from , very bland , also not catered for children , and to get a piece of cake was nearly impossible, we managed to get 1 slice of cake on two occasions and once the cake was still frozen . They put one cake at a time with all people wanting the cake and were not replacing when gone . There was also a lot of young adults tour groups checking in . They were loud , very loud , banging on the doors , shouting and partying at the balconies and corridors and those walls are not very sound proof either . This hotel certainly is not family friendly and catered for young people that only care about partying. Unfortunately this stay with this hotel has been nothing but disappointment and for that price to feel like an intruder through your stay is just sad . I wanted my children to have an amazing time , luckily the weather has been fantastic so the beach has saved the trip although one rainy day we were stuck in the hotel with nothing to do literally. I would avoid this hotel at all costs especially if planning to go with children . Also the area leading to the hotel when wet is extremely slippery. I very rarely leave less than 4* reviews however this stay was just one pricey disappointment and no positives that I could put.

Rated as a 4 star, would give it a 2 star at the most. Very dated rooms and decor, damp and mouldy bathroom with cracked tiles, dirty not cleaned. beds are camp beds, minimal facilities. The man with the magic camera has been again, the pool is small with very few sunbeds. NOT suitable for disabled or visually impaired people, uneven surfaces inside and out, slippery decking to the outside pool area. Food is limited choice and basic/bland. No entertainment during the day, didn't hang around for the evening show. Will not return, nicer hotels in the area for a few quid more, worth searching.

Don’t allow any negative reviews put you off about this hotel. I was in Spain with my family during school holidays in August . Memories of our experience are still vivid.Gran Garbi Hotel was an excellent choice, we had an amazing experience, staff such as receptionists and cleaners were all very professional helpful and polite. We were especially pleased that the kitchen staff met our dietary needs by offering Halal Food, they even prepared a birthday cake free of charge for my daughter during breakfast, making the start of her birthday very special.I also love the fact that the hotel is surrounded by a variety of restaurants shops etc. Besides the two swimming pools within the hotel, there is also Aqua splash Park,where the kids had fun throughout our stay. I can’t fault this hotel. I highly recommend this hotel .

Incredible experience – exceeded all expectations! Before traveling, I must admit I was a bit worried because I had read some negative comments about the hotel and the staff. But to our surprise, the experience was absolutely wonderful and couldn’t have been better! Right from the start, we were warmly welcomed. The bartenders are super friendly, attentive, and fun – we even became friends with them. The restaurant staff, who cleared the tables, were always polite, smiling, and made every meal more enjoyable. Another highlight was the kids’ entertainment. The entertainer Pedro is simply amazing with children! He has such contagious energy and keeps the little ones happy and engaged all the time, which gave us peace of mind to truly relax. As for the food, I had seen many complaints saying it was repetitive and poor in quality, but I completely disagree. Every day there were different, delicious options, well-prepared and varied – nothing to complain about at all. The room cleaning service also deserves recognition. The housekeeping staff came every day, left the room spotless, always replaced the towels, and took care of every detail with great attention. In summary: our stay was fantastic, and I recommend this hotel with no hesitation! For those who are unsure whether to go or not, don’t worry – you won’t regret it. The hotel has a dedicated and welcoming team, excellent services, and creates unforgettable moments.

Very Disappointing Stay – Rude Staff & Poor Service

I stayed at Hotel Gran Garbi in Lloret de Mar and unfortunately had a very poor experience. One of the worst moments was when a staff member shouted at my 10-year-old son and made a scene in front of the entire restaurant, embarrassing both of us. They then spoke to another staff member in Spanish, clearly knowing they were in the wrong. About 10 minutes later, they came over and apologised — but the damage was already done.

There are hardly any sunbeds available, and if you’re lucky enough to get one, don’t expect to move a chair nearby. I was told off just for putting a chair next to a sunbed so my partner and I could sit together.

The food was nothing special, and most of the bar staff were just as rude. On more than one occasion I asked for ice, and they simply walked off and ignored me. You can only get one drink at a time, which means you can’t even order for your kids. There’s no pool bar at the main pool, so when you go inside for a drink, you get told off for coming in wet. One tall, bald staff member was particularly rude — he even seemed to threaten cutting off a family member’s wristband, which was completely unnecessary.

That said, there were a couple of lovely bar staff — the lady behind the bar was always polite, and the man with the bun was friendly and helpful.

When booking, it clearly stated we would get a double bed, but we were given two singles pushed together. The rooms themselves were okay for short stays, but not ideal for a bigger family — and they were far from perfect. The toilet in our room was broken, and the shower head was faulty, falling on our heads more than once. Everything felt a bit dodgy and in need of maintenance.

The only real positives were the lovely staff who cleared the food plates — they were polite and friendly — and the maid on the 2nd floor who cleaned our room brilliantly every day. I didn’t catch her name, but she was amazing.

I also want to give credit to the water park staff — they were fantastic. One of our family members got hurt, and they were quick, kind, and professional in helping them.

Overall, the negatives far outweighed the positives, and the experience was stressful rather than relaxing. I would not recommend this hotel.
