Reviews
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.
