Garau Petit Hotel in L'Arenal

Great location, only 2 mins walk to the beach. Staff was very kind and helpful. Huge terrace with sun beds was a bonus. Very safe and secure hotel. Easy check-in on automated device outdoors.

Cons - walls are thin and you could hear other guests which disrupted sleep.

Shower very small and hard to shower without banging arms and legs.

Bed was uncomfortable. Didn’t have a proper nights sleep throughout my stay here. Due to the bed and the noise of other guests.

Overall a ok stay here if you’re looking for somewhere near the beach and a safe hotel to stay in for few nights.

The bathroom here was terrible. The toilet was on one side of the room and the sink on another, so if you got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, you got to stumble to two locations to go. Both bathrooms were tiny. I had to straddle the toilet to close the door. They both were an annoying half step taller than the bathroom - another fun feature when using the bathroom in the middle of the night. And the shower literally was a one square foot area base. I was claustrophobic taking a shower.

The area is also disgusting. Not the hotel's fault, but with so many nice places on the island, paying $200 to stay at this hotel in this area was ridiculous.
