Hotels near sea shore in Spain

Reception greeted us warmly and the staff were attentive throughout our stay, providing complimentary water and juices. There was also a wide variety of food available, both at breakfast and dinner

I would especially like to highlight Alex’s service, as he assisted us with great kindness and professionalism. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay

The quality and selection were excellent, with plenty of options. The spa facilities were another highlight of our stay, offering the perfect environment to relax and recharge

Our stay at this hotel was truly wonderful and we had a very positive experience. From the moment we arrived, we felt very welcomed

Overall, a great experience and we’d happily stay here again

We would definitely return in the future!

Thank you again for making our wedding week so magical! 💕

The staff is exceptional! We felt very welcomed here!

Rooms are very nice but needs better maintenance when I emptied the bathroom sink it pulled the water trap and allowed sewerage smells to enter the bathroom. The maids were great could not fault them

The pool is quiet and very well manned by life guards and constant service people checking areas. There is another pool for families with inflatables this pool does get busy and obviously has children playing in the pool

We are very pleased with breakfast a well stocked fruit and yoghurt bar as well as a good hot buffet bar. It does get very busy so be prepared for the odd wait for a table if coming at peak time

We have a 14 night stay here we are completely satisfied with the service from our room maids. Our room is cleaned every day and fresh towels at hand

Entertainment on the night was a bit basic/boring but we went for walks to the local shops and along the sea front which was right outside the hotel gates. We will be definitely returning next year as a family

Trip advisor review ROOM I found the room to be a decent size and our balcony to be good for sitting on. Our view, however, was terrible. If you can upgrade to a pool view - do it

The biggest problem experienced was the beds and the bedding, two single beds pushed together with a thin sheet on top doesn’t qualify as a ‘double bed or double room’ the gap between both beds was extremely obvious and painful and the beds during the course of the night did push away from eachother

We were above the laundry room, and faced a wasteland of grass. FOOD The food at Sol Palmanova was standard all inclusive. Between the 2 hotels and snack bar there was food to be had, however, it was the exact same

If you leave via the back gate you’ll find yourself at the beach within a 2 minute walk

The hotel rooms are small but we knew this and dont spend too much time in our room anyway, always cleaned and fresh towels if needed, we had a great view from our balcony

A great hotel…gardens, pools and facilities all excellent. The food was good however could have been better

Room was clean! Staff was great (only one around 35-40 years woman was all the time rude during eating time! Place was super nice and defenatly I will go back! Only problem was that night time suddenly safety box start to piiping and didn’t stop no matter what we try

Great Holiday. Lovely hotel, lots of good choices and bars. Many pools to choose from also, along with direct access to the beach. Hotel rooms were clean and fresh.

The Steakhouse in particular stood out – highly recommended if you’re a meat lover! There are several pools to choose from, including a beautiful infinity pool overlooking the ocean, a quieter adults-only pool for total relaxation, and a fun, family-friendly pool area

then we called reception and after half hour somebody (nice) person came to fix it. It would be nice that level hotel they would give discount for future staying because it was ruin 2 hours our sleep

Beautiful hotel, with modern touches. Reception staff were great and very helpful with any questions/issues. Pools were decent although maybe a little small for the quantity of guests at the hotel

A wonderful quiet family beach hotel with quick access to the sea. The food in the restaurant was delicious, quite a good choice. Breakfasts are almost always the same but you won't go hungry

I would like to see the possibility of free water at dinner, because drinks are all paid and that's understandable, but at least water should be free. Cleaning is good, towels are changed very often

Thank you all for making our stay so wonderful. The resort is well-maintained and the location is beautiful. The apartment was very comfortable and well-equipped

As others have commented, a bottle of water is somewhat pricey in the restaurant (for dinner), and one is not allowed to have their own water bottle. The beach was stunning, albeit at times rather windy

Our stay at Hotel Playa Esperanza was absolutely fantastic! The food was delicious with great variety every day. The beach and sea are simply breathtaking – crystal clear water and just steps away from the hotel

★★★★★ Outstanding Family Resort Experience! Just returned from a magnificent two-week stay at Playa Esperanza (May-June 2025) with my family (3 adults, 1 child), and I cannot praise this resort enough! The culinary experience was exceptional - the restaurant offered an impressive 10-day rotation of menus with fantastic variety for both adults and children

The hotel was clean and modern. Got a room on the ground floor with the pool view. Didn't get much sunshine inside the room or on the terrace. The food was delicious, really enjoyed the variety, especially ice cream

The pool was a little bit cold both outside and inside and the sauna smelled a bit poorly

Spacious apartment with sea views. Very well located and well decorated.

The hotel is very good, good location, comfort, views and everything perfect. But what is really REMARKABLE is the staff, they are very nice, friendly at all times, very efficient

Since we walked through the door at reception they have explained everything to us wonderfully and all the employees are lovely. Thank you very much for everything ❤️

What a beautiful hotel, with amazing Staff! We only came for the weekend, but the staff couldn't do enough. We will definitely be back. Thank you. 😎

Lovely place for families with big swimming pool and animations.. Very good breakfast, lunch and dinner. Good location near the Water park and Park of other kids activities

The life size mascots, the food and the selection of the many swimming pools so beautifully designed added to this adventure for her. The live shows so full of artistic quality were a fantastic treat for kids and adults

On arrival we were given passes to amusement parks and the waterpark,of which were closed to the public which was a big disappointment as we had children with us ,there was an indoor spa with pools which was absolutely packed,because of the covid situation no thought was put into the control of people that totally overwhelmed the place ,came out after 5 minutes as I did not feel safe,also...

The food was a bit boring but my stay was only 6 days, what made me so unhappy was the staff especially one that worked at the bar near the swimming pool She was so rude to foreigners it was horrible

Very nice hotel and the staff are so professional definitely will repeat the experience there again.

My wife and I invited our second granddaughter to this hotel for two nights for her 7th birthday. She thoroughly enjoyed the experience with the help of the amazingly professional entertainers

Lovely quiet hotel only 5 minutes walk to the beach and the old town. Excellent variety of food at breakfast. Two outside pools with plenty of sun loungers also 1 heated indoor pool with jacuzzi.

Stayed here for 5 nights and it was great. Close enough to the beach, loads of excellent restaurants nearby, and the best pool. This is very much a family-friendly hotel, that your kids and you will enjoy

Amazing hotel lovely staff central for everything gorgeous pools brilliant great entertainment

A really nice hotel, with friends helpful staff. The hotel and room were clean, with good facilities. A nice balcony, though the view was onto the rear. Fridge and wardrobe space were provided. A great stay.

Great one night stay last minute. Parked on street outside. Free overnight and Sundays! Room was very dated, but clean and reasonably priced

Clean rooms and food diversity is very good. The walls between rooms are thin so you can hear your neighbours. The parking is not free and the elevators are too small. Staff is very polite and willing to help

High quality hotel, amemities, and great location. 2 pools, rooftop bar. Nice rooms, most with sea view! Note: Lots of older tour groups here and in area fyi if seeking younger crowd.

The room was clean and the view of the beach was gorgeous. The only thing I would mention is that it is an older crowd and the staff seemed to cater to them. They weren’t as friendly or receptive when we asked questions

Buffet was included and it was great with a lot of choices. Pool area was large, clean and not short of loungers. Pool was not heated so water was cold this time of year

The cleaning staff was super friendly. Otherwise I would highly recommend this hotel. Room was comfortable and very clean. We had a car and parking was not included but you could park on the street for free

Very nice hotel, good breakfast included in price. Option for lunch and dinner. Food is good and reasonable price with many choice options

The staff send us three times away while we wanted to check in because it wasn’t 02:00 P. even though we wrote them two weeks in advance that we will arrive earlier than expected and they said it would be okay

You can watch the sunrise over the sea from your room. It takes just a few minutes' walk to get to Peniscola Castle. It's so wonderful and refreshing to take a stroll and enjoy gentle sea breeze around the castle

Fabulous hotel, just in front of the beach and views to the castle. Great food quality with lot of choices and friendly staff.

Great place to stay right on the boardwalk and close to great dining and castle.

The hotel staff are very patient, conscientious and nice

Perfect for a two stars hotel. Clean and well located.

We were in a group with an English company in Spain where we live. The hotel although big was beautiful, well maintained to a high standard with friendly staff

Bermuda shorts, trainers and shirt buttons undone down to navel level is not the done thing. We even had one gentleman (And I'll use the phrase loosely) who wore his hat whilst seated

There are a couple of areas of the hotel still to open at the time of writing, including a children's area, additional bar and shops, but again, nothing that had any impact on our holiday in any way, shape or form

The pool bar is excellent, although we did encounter some queuing for service on several occasions

We've been to this hotel 4 times now and its always like a home from home, friendly staff and the food has always been amazing, we have tried other places but always come back here.

A couple of suggestions are to put the hot drinks machine on the counter and let people help themselves, and to install a self-service carbonated drinks dispenser

The drinks menu is large and detailed so if you get stuck behind someone ordering a couple of cocktails then be prepared to wait as everything is made to order

the smoking area at the pool bar is a bit too forgiving so for non-smokers its not always easy to sit and avoid the smokers. the late night snacks to be a bit more choice and to be until at least midnight

The gardens and pool are stunning with plenty of sun beds, parasols and even has poolside massages and hairdressers. The hotel also has a nice gym, handy shop and a Dr's as well as pcs at reception

The cocktails were excellent and good choice of local spirits available on the all inclusive. We liked the poolside bar as a good option for day time snacks and the table service was excellent

The hotel was very friendly clean the pool area was also very clean and tidy, The food at the hotel was really nice and a big variety.. really enjoyed my 3 days and higly reccomend this hotel

Large, immaculately-clean 4-star hotel with a 5-star swimming pool. Reasonably priced and we paid with Avios points

Beautiful hotel - Definitely worth a visit! Room was bright, very clean and spacious with a lovely balcony, had a stunning bathroom with nice toiletries and plenty of towels and lots of nice touches like a fridge and plenty of sockets

From start to finish, the experience was seamless, relaxing, and incredibly well-suited to balancing work and well-being. Facilities & Comfort: The resort offers a unique blend of tranquility and professional amenities

Clean modern rooms, excellent food choices , nice bars, good entertainment.. Pool was a bit cloudy ..

Wellness & Location: After long working hours, the resort’s spa, gym, and pool facilities were an absolute highlight

Amazing hotel popular for Germans and cyclist. Very well connected bus connection right outside amazing hotel will recommend to friends and family

Meeting & Work Spaces: Although I didn’t host formal meetings, the resort offers excellent quiet zones and informal seating areas where I could take video calls and work without distraction

Everything in the hotel is fine. Lot of facilities. Not a place where you can lay on the beach. Too small and next to a busy road. Mosquitos in the park deliver discomfort.

Food is excellent as are the staff but there is no ground outside relaxing by a pool as it is situated on the 7th floor under a covered roof with a bar outside and sun terrace on top

What another amazing stay in Magic Cristal. This was our 4th year staying here from there new online check-in to the amazing staff all across the hotel, keep up the good work and looking forward to our next stay.

Rooms were ok, had two big beds, clean and spacious. Kettle in room but coffee was never replenish. No hairdryer (deposit 20 euros at reception and you can borrow it for 2 hours) no balcony and we looked on to the school

They play music calling the kids to school so no long sleeps for us. Traffic starts about 7am and it can be really noisy. We were also above the bar and two nights in a row it was noisy outside until about 4am

Ive stayed here 3 times and its my go to hotel for benidorm as its in a fantastic location in-between the old and new towns and about 8 mins to levante beach

The hotel is full of character, Valentines day was wonderful, the rose for all the ladies was a lovely touch! the food was delicious! Plenty of options for everyone, our only criticism was it could have been warmer

There is an indoor swimming pool and a sauna for the use of the hotel clients

We stayed at the Meliá Benidorm as a group of 13 and honestly, we couldn’t fault it. The hotel was immaculate throughout, spotless rooms, comfortable beds and everything maintained to a really high standard

Very nice stay and beautiful hotel. Kids club is great at this hotel. Marcos and Eva are so good with kids. Highly recommend if you are looking for a nice hotel and a good place for your little ones!

We enjoyed it that much we’re already looking to book again for next year. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Benidorm, whether you’re going as a couple, family or a larger group like us

The buffets had a variety of delicious food dishes, fruits, cheeses and desserts. The waiters were attentive and helpful but short on staff to clear and prepare the tables

There’s a Lidl directly across the road which was so handy for snacks and essentials, and a lovely Chinese buffet right opposite as well – ideal for big groups like ours

The pool and sun-lounger area was absolutely fantastic with no problems at all — just be prepared for a very ice-cold pool! All in all, we absolutely loved our stay at the Best Sabinal and would definitely recommend it

Lunch and dinner had live stir fry cooking and that was a particular hit. Normally on all inclusive holidays I eat out every 2/3 nights as I get sick of the food. We didn't go out at all here, which tells its own story

Sea views are incredible and very peaceful. We had many a night sitting on the balcony with a bottle of all inclusive red wine. I almost dropped a star on account of a few rude staff members in the restaurant

The spa facilities themselves were fantastic, and the staff at the bars were very generous with the drinks (so much so that we even had to ask for *less* alcohol!). Our room was stunning, with a beautiful view

The food was good, although a little repetitive at times, so we did choose to eat out on a few occasions despite being all-inclusive. One of the chefs especially deserves excellent credit for his hard work

I don't give many hotels 5 stars so it goes to show how good this place is The food, as some mentioned was quite samey at times, but there were that many options overall, it didn't bother us

We have a room with a sea view, everything was new. And the plumbing and furniture. It is unclear why a 5* no Slippers, robes and water bottles

Beautiful hotel with clean modern rooms. The breakfast was outstanding, offering a good variety of options. I’d like to give a special thank-you to Abelardo, who consistently went above and beyond to make us feel welcome

Great kids club, nice breakfast but you need to get there early or it’s chaotic. Top location, beach and bars on your doorstep

Beautiful and so central spotless clean staff are very helpful and friendly food is great and service is excellent would recommend here to anybody looking for a break in the centre of everything but you don't hear anything

His warmth and enthusiasm truly enhanced our stay and made the experience exceptional. We would gladly return — and hope to see Abelardo again on our next visit

Our room was on the 5th floor with pool and sea view, so we had fab views. Our room was spotless as was the general areas of the hotel

Very happy about food and kids swimming pool Thank you

The swimming pool is well maintained, with plenty of space to relax comfortably. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well taken care of. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay and definitely a place I would recommend!

It was great loved it - all staff were amazing! Only thing I would change is the fact there is no privacy between guests on the balcony which can make it Abit arkward when all outside but other than that it was great!

The hotel has an excellent location, making it easy to reach everything you need. The staff are very friendly and helpful, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere from the moment you arrive

If you're looking for a budget-friendly hotel, this is for you. You get what you put for essentially. Hotel is clean but dated. Food is okay. Staff are friendly.

Exceptional value for money. Fantastic staff, great variety of food and drinks, good amenities and fab location. Was it perfect? No but at the price you’re paying it’s as close as it can be

The pool areas were clean with enough available sunbeds for all. The hotel could do with a coat of fresh paint and the fact we couldn't get late check out was annoying but we would still goe back

Nice hotel in good location - only ten minute walk to the beach. Lots of shops and restaurants in the vicinity. The pool areas and activities for kids are excellent

The restaurant had a vast choice of food with varying themes across the week. The pool bar also had a small selection of food that was ideal for children or a snack. The beds were comfortable and made/changed daily

Love the all inclusive option and the activities offered. Many diff pools to choose from. It ddnt feel crowded. Staff is amazing and service is fantastic.

Definitely not a 4 star hotel (3 at best!) Staff were all lovely and the hotel is very large but rooms and facilities are dated. Lots of broken tiles etc around the pools. Pool areas not cleaned very well at all

Very easy to check in, hotel facilities are very clean and friendly service

At the main kids pool at the back there were quite a few broken tiles and sharp edges at one of the showers. The kids loved the splash pad and the mini golf. The kids club staff were great fun at the evening disco’s

Lovely hotel, well kept and clean. Check in experience could be better but overall we had a brilliant time and would return

Beautiful sea view, clean pool, staff all helpful and friendly, can't ask for much more. Some of the room maintenance could have been better but it was only minor things, nothing to spoil a holiday

A perfect place for families with children. Kids' pool area with water slides was great. Activities and program for both adults and children were well planned - especially Barcy was a huge hit for kids

Direct access to the promenade and beach. Would definitely recommend this hotel

I loved the place, but do not take the exit Torremolinos take exit Los Alamos to go to the Hotel, no much good restaurants around unless you’re going to Malaga to eat lunch or dinner, best Breakfast Buffet ever, and I fell in love with those coffee machines: loved the coffee in a few words … you’ll love it!
