Whilst the stay was ok, this property is very dated. Lots of noise around at night but not an issue if you are night owls but for those with children they may be kept awake as it is pretty loud, certainly was in my room.

Great room lovely view and lots around in the area. Nice pool though not heated there is also an indoor one and hot tub pools. Friendly staff, nice surroundings in the gardens. Breakfast disappointing in quality but a lot of variations.

A birthday treat in Roquetas

A birthday treat for our friend to stay a couple of nights! Our rooms weren’t ready on arrival but was given a voucher for drinks while we waited which was a good gesture by the hotel. The check in receptionist was excellent and although it was really busy with long queues she remained calm and professional under pressure! A bottle of bubbly and card was left in our friends’s room for his birthday which was a nice touch! Rooms with sea view and two huge beds! Bedding and towels spotless white and rooms and bathrooms cleaned to a high standard! Room only so can’t comment about food! Used the bar/cafe between the pool and promenade! The two barmen were excellent offering good service for drinks and breakfast! Glad this area was open this time as lovely location right by the beach! A shame one of the lifts was broken as had to wait a long time at peak times. So busy at checking out time had to carry cases down many flights of stairs! We liked the location of the hotel near to bars and restaurants and plenty parking nearby! Our second stay here and will most likely stay again!

The hotel amenities (pool area) are good, as depicted in the description. The entertainment at night was also good for the kids. The food was really bad quality, greasy, chicken and pork were cold, salmon fillets were dry and tasted bad, the cod was unetable, the pastry was superartificial. nothing good to say of the restaurant. avoid at all cost. Also you must pay for the filtered tap water (1.80 euros per 750mL) The food ruin our experience whcih otherwise would have been good. It is not a fancy buffet, its cheap cafeteria food sold at very expensive price.

We had a great family holiday here, the food was great, and the room comfortable. The swimming pool and access to the beach is great. The hotel is a little dated and could use some improvements to make it more modern.

Dated but mostly functional rooms, WiFi is unusable in the rooms as signal is so weak, had to go to reception to download kindle book which needs very little. No kettle in room which surprised me for 4 star, good spacious bathroom, good hotel for kids, but the extremely loud hotel ‘entertainment’ on in the open air until midnight every night got a bit grating especially as my room was very close to it.

This is not a 4 star hotel, more like a 3 stars. Rooms are large, nice balcony, little fridge, but no coffee machines, as in other 4start hotels. However, its good for the money and the location, nice pool and access to the beach

This was the most amazing hotel resort! It felt like we were in the middle of a celebration and paradise at the same time. I'm surprised that more Americans haven't found this place. The maid service was amazing. The hotel /resort was right on the beach, yet it was a stone's throw away from tons of restaurants and shops and little grocery stores etc. The pool is like something out of a movie with slides and a waterfall plus every night they had a singing dance show on a stage by the pool. There's a game area with air hockey and pool table and pinball and it was just super safe with lots of familes.

Good and bad

We had an excellent holiday and the facilities and staff could not be faulted as far as we were concerned, however our holiday was marred by the treatment some guests received over the Thomas Cook collapse. Although the hotel was assured by the caa that they would get paid, the hotel was demanding a further payment from guests or they were locked out of their rooms. We had direct experience of a young family who had to pay £600 and 2 other couples one of whom was disabled who had to spend at least one night on a sofa in reception

Het mooiste van het hotel is het zwembad. We waren wat vroeg in het seizoen, dus het water was nog koud (niet verwarmd) verder super. Hotel is wat gedateerd en wordt stapsgewijs gemoderniseerd. Wij hadden een prima kamer, maar we hoorden van anderen dat ze nog een hele oude kamer hadden. Het buffet was iedere avond veel van hetzelfde waardoor we er naar 5 dagen echt genoeg van hadden. Kwaliteit van het eten was redelijk. Personeel was van aardig tot niets zeggend. Mooi uitvalsbasis voor bezoeken aan Almeria en Granada

L'hôtel a un certain cachet, très espagnol avec ses azulejos.
Très propre. Personnel charmant à l'écoute. Seul bémol : les repas n'étaient pas du niveau d'un 4 étoiles
Les plats peu originaux, souvent tièdes voire froids. La qualité des produits proposés est à revoir.
J'aurais aimé avoir du thé de qualité et non des produits de chez Lidl
Sinon bon séjour

Lamentable experiencia

A este hotel le sobra una estrella, no esperes encontrar un standard de 4 estrellas, no veras en las fotografías de la web el estado real de las habitaciones, desde el estado del baño, cortina de la ducha, pintura de las paredes, instalación de aire acondicionado,…
Habitaciones con aire de los años 70, que no se ha actualizado ni renovado.
Personalmente me he sentido menospreciado como cliente, pude constatar que eligieron para mi la peor de sus habitaciones, a pesar de pedirles varias veces explicaciones no fue posible obtener respuesta.
Seguro que en la zona hay mejores opciones que este hotel

ottimo Family hotel

Hotel in posizione strategica, con bellissima piscina e splendidamente collegato alla spiaggia. camera ampia (superior) bagno grande, moderno e belle spugne. tanto personale al lavoro che tiene tutto pulito ed in ordine; buono staff di animazione ed assistenza piscina.
L'unico elemento decisamente migliorabile e´ la colazione: la frutta palesemente tagliata il giorno prima e lasciata a rinsecchire nei frigoriferi. Marmellate 3... buona la egg station separata e ben aspirata. Impossibile avere un caffe espresso un cappuccino diverso dalle macchine automatiche, neanche a pagamento. (tariffe non popolari ma accettabili)

Estuvimos hospedados unos días en septiembre. Por un tema personal tuvimos que irnos unos días antes. Solicitamos la devolución con la consiguiente penalización y aún estamos esperando una respuesta, aunque esta fuera negativa, de la gerencia. Las medidas COVID también eran muy laxas y cada uno campaba a sus anchas. Por descontado en la piscina todas las hamacas bien juntas unas de otras. Poca seriedad

Playacapricho Hotel

Playacapricho has all the ingredients of a good resort. Nice rooms, dining area, bar and cafe, entertainment, directly located at the beach, a indoor swimming pool and off course a big swimming outside with a slide for the kids and a whirlpool.

Because a was traveling alone this time, a had a single room with balcony with 2 chairs and a table with sea view. Because I was on the third floor, my sea view was partially blocked by the more expensive apartment rooms on the other side of the swimming pool.
The room was very nice, clean (no dust whatsoever) and had everything necessary for a single traveller. Nice bed, fridge, TV, closet and bathroom with shower. Too bad not a tube.

The lobby of the hotel is also very clean and green looking, with plants growing everywhere and ponds to finish it. But I was there in October and the ponds where empty.
The people behind the reception speak good English.
The swimming pool itself looked a little outdated with some missing tiles on the bottom of the floor, but it was very clean. And along the side of the pool there were enough sunbeds.

Breakfast is from 08:00 till 10:30, lunch from 13:00 till 15:30 and dinner from 20:00 till 22:30. And with half pension you can switch lunch with dinner.
Because I self-had half pension I can only rate the breakfast and dinner and they were all right. Only really buffet style. And the only downside for me was, I still had to pay for me drinks at dinner, because that was not included with half pension.

Nos dieron la suite, muy amplia, con bañera redonda en la habitación. Daba a primera línea del mar y se oían las olas por la noche.
Por la tarde se oye a los niños jugar porque la ludoteca está justo debajo y las siestas no son del todo teanquilas.

Hotel recomendado

Todo a estado muy bien, las instalaciones en muy buen estado, la piscina muy grande y estaba muy limpia, tanto la exterior como la interior.
La habitación muy grande, la cama muy comoda.
Hay parking de pago en el interior pero con un descuento que hacen sale muy bien de precio.
Lo único que no me a gustado esque por las noches se escucha mucho ruido de motores.
Pero se puede dormir bien.
