Hotel Arenal in San Antonio Abad

Great hotel. View over the bay 2nd to none. Food was enjoyable and service very good. Only issue I did find was that the hotels towels were a little on the small side... More like hand towels than your normal hotel provided towels That having been said, we will be returning again July 2026.

This hotel is situated right on the beach strip which ideal for bars and the beach.

The room it self is slightly dated but understandable for the price.

Absolutely lovely hotel. The staff are grea, helpful and friendly, everywhere is very clean, tidy and smells fresh. I cannot stress enough, to book a sea view apartment if you can. The balcony is very smart, spacious and has an incredible view, especially when the sun is setting. 11/10

Loved this hotel and staff and the pool is amazing !!!
The location is absolutely perfect too.

Third stay in 12 months, bought the husband this time for first week, we were allocated one of the new refurbished rooms, yet again was a lovely stay, even storm Alice didn’t get in the way, staff and clients all bunched together and watched from inside! Daughter and granddaughter flew out for the second week, ( they are still there) and they were given the room next to us, we didn’t request this, so was really lovely, staff are absolutely amazing, friendly, welcoming, and will even listen to you have a little moan 😊 Ava knows everyone who is staying, she’s fantastic, and Olga and her bar team were excellent in every way, see you next May guys Love Karen and family

Had a great holiday in Ibiza despite storm 'Alice', cannot praise the staff enough, Jessica and Eva on reception both helpful very patience thank you both.Our complements to the chef and all bar staff.Hotel Arenal "simply the best".

Just back from a lovely relaxing stay at Hotel Arenal. I was a little bit dubious about booking as I usually ensure any rooms I book have a balcony as I like to sit out & see things & to be able to dry out my towel & swimwear. However the single rooms here dont have balcony's but they do have big windows that fully open & the inland view i had was amazing as i could see San Antonio & also part of the beach & sea & although I was on the side by Linekers bar the loud music didn't bother me I'm a bit hard of hearing anyway but the last few nights seems they weren't open anyway. The hotel is in a good location, close enough to walk into San An & its a lovely walk the other way round to the Bay where there are more beaches, bars, shops & restaurants. Check in was quick & easy, I was given lots of hotel information by the nice young lad on reception ie where the restaurant, pool, bar etc is, what time breakfast & dinner was served, about the free safe (just a €20 deposit which you get back at end of stay). My room was great, very modern, open plan, lots of storage & lots of room, very different to the picture they had on the Tui website which was a little dark & dated so yes I was very happy, couldn't fault it, apart from no balcony but as I said I booked knowing it didn't have one. Breakfast & Dinner are what you would expect, lots of choice, everything I had was tasty & warm. The restaurant staff again were all very attentive & welcoming, especially the lady at the door & the older lady, one night they came round offering free Sangria. The cleaners came every day again I couldn't fault their service & friendliness. The English lady on reception & the gentleman on night duty always had time for a chat or to help when I asked for any information. The pool area was good, always plenty of beds & shades available didnt see many towels reserving beds, there's also beds on the terrace at the front of the hotel which some people preferred. All in all I enjoyed my week at the Arenal & if I go back to San Antonio I wouldn't hesitate to book here again. Thanks to all staff at the Arenal Hotel for a great week.

I love Arenal, have stayed maybe 5 times. My only issue is the rooms, they are so tired and old fashioned. Bathrooms are beautiful, modern and clean which is an odd contrast to the actual room.

This hotel is rated as a 3 star but is worthy of so much more. The location is amazing and its definitely worth paying a little bit extra for a sea view room where you get to witness beautiful sunsets. The staff were so so friendly with a special mention going to David, Merzel and the older lady in the restaurant. If I was to criticise anything it would be to upgrade the towels in the rooms, think about introducing a towel hire service for pool towels and have more vegetarian selection at dinner. Many of the guests have been going year on year which tells you something!
