I arrived on a Wednesday and on arrival I fell backwards down the outside steps getting my bags in. I cut my head and had mild concussion. Consequently I was unable to go to the restaurant for breakfast and had room service. The weather was chaotic. Rain, storms etc. I decided to return to the UK. I had paid €152 for onsite parking I left early friday morning. There were many young ladies on reception at one time but not overly interested in serving customers. I was hoping the management might return some of my room cost, as they no doubt relet it. Also the car parking charge. But no. Very disappointed. My husband and I had stayed at the hotel many times but unfortunately I was on my own this time as he recently passed away. I will never return.

Its a nice place for a few dahs to a week or two. Perfect if you like putting about with the golf clubs or whatever. Peaceful, pleasant enough. Expensive to park at twenty bucks per night but they offer a complimentery breakfast whi h is absolutely fantastic and more than makes up for it. Full hot English with bacon, to order eggs, sausage, beans... well, anything you could imagine is on the buffet and, being so.ewhat of an afficianado of the \"breakfasting experience\", I would reccomend it. The resteraunt staff are so, so friendly and accomadating and cannot do enough for you. I had a fantastic view of the golf course and could also see my motor car from the balcony, which is lovely, so it was overall a lovely place to stay.

This was my third visit to Oliva Nova. I fly in from Canada and stay there a few nights to recover from jet lag before proceeding with travels in Valencia region. Rooms are spacious and spotless. Staff are friendly. Buffet breakfast is top quality and keeps me going all day. White sand beach is perfect for long walks to clear away the cobwebs. Thank you Oliva Nova. I’ll be back!

This was my second visit to Oliva Nova and I will return again. It is the perfect place for R&R. I stay there to recover from jet lag. Rooms are spacious and sparkling clean. Balcony views of sunrise are stunning. Breakfast is fresh and satisfying. The golden sands are five minutes away. Perfect! (Especially during Covid.) Thank you to the staff. 🙏

Hidden gem. Will return

Great room. Very clean. Lots of channel choice on the TV. Huge bed. Lovely buffet breakfast with lots of choice. Good sized balcony.
The couch turns into another bed and it wasn't really comfortable to sit on for a long time. But normally, you are not spending so much time in your room.
Not easy to find at first but once you know which side road to take, its a breeze from the main road into Oliva. You really need a car though.

If Michael O’leary did hotels.........

One of the worst hotel experiences of our lives.
When we were checking in we were given a very hard sell to try and get us to upgrade and spend an additional €70 per night. We politely declined they then tried to argue that we were on bed an breakfast only when our reservation was clearly for half board and then they said we would need to pay €32 to use the spa for 90 minutes, this isn’t stated anywhere on hotels.com unlike other hotels. Our room was in a state of extreme disrepair with the curtain hanging off the wall, the lights not working and the toilet running (it is my belief they put us in this room to convince us to pay for the upgrade). We needed to shower before dinner and the repair guy was in our room so we went to ask reception how much longer they would be and could we change rooms so we could shower, they refused to let us meaning we had to go to dinner without a shower. The buffet dinner at best could be described as average and the atmosphere in the restaurant was that of a morgue. They closed the beach resort (one of the main reasons we visited) the day we were there despite it still being in there season. No pool towels are provided despite the hefty price tag again unless you upgrade.
When we checked out the bill was also wrong with items added which clearly were wrong. Leaving this hotel was the highlight of staying at it.

This was my first stay at Oliva Nova. I wanted a self-contained hotel where I could relax for three days and recover from transatlantic jet lag. Oliva Nova was perfect!

Elisa welcomed me and spoke excellent English. I was assigned a lovely classic double room on the 3rd floor in block two overlooking the cabanas and pools. At sunset I enjoyed stunning mountain views from both the east balcony and the west corridor.

The breakfast buffet set me up for the day. Spain was in a heat wave so the abundant juices and water could be stored in the room's fridge. A short, groomed walk over the dunes led to a pristine beach where people carried their own umbrellas and mats - informal and clear of the usual beach clutter. The afternoon sea breeze brought out colourful kite surfers from the nearby club. The hotel courtyard had live music concerts at night and this was cheerful for someone travelling alone. All silent by midnight.

Amenities excellent: comfy beds and good pillows (a rare compliment); well-appointed bathroom with deep, refreshing bath. Spacious balcony.

This was high season and the hotel was fully booked. Clearly a favourite for families with small children. I look forward to returning to Oliva Nova! Thanks to everyone who works so hard to make it a happy and welcoming place.

Great Room good choice for breakfast although often stone cold. Some staff extremely rude the majority of the on site restaurants and bars closed (3rd week in May) this not advised by either expedia or the hotel. Nowhere to get a drink, snack if sat by the pool!!
Broken lock on bedroom door had to repeatedly ask for this to be fixed as same issue kept reoccuring, leaving to room open for anyone to walk in, didnt feel safe. Other issues with room service and quality of meals, management not interested in discussing.

Family-friendly resort near beach

Overall, an excellent hotel. Helpful, friendly staff, great food, lovely pool, nice beach nearby BUT spa facilities were disappointing. We only used them once and they cannot be described as five star: circuit rooms limited and a bit scruffy in places and not very welcoming. Plus they should be offered free to paying hotel guests, not be an extra. Wi fi patchy. Hotel rooms themselves OK but dated.

Smashing hotel close to the beach, beautiful views

Definitely worth getting a room with a sea view ! The views are fabulous and the balcony is a lovely spot to enjoy the views and relax. Breakfast is definitely worth it. There was less of a fruit selection to our last visit which was a little disappointing. But it was still a great breakfast selection. The evening buffet included with the half board was delicious and a great choice for everyone. My only complaint is that there was no table water provided for dinner, whereas at breakfast this was included. The pool and spa are great and the beach is perfectly safe for swimming.

Wunderbarer Kurzurlaub

Für einen Singelausflug und eine Auszeit von ein paar Tagen wunderbar. Trotz vieler Gäste und der Grösse verteilt es sich gut, so dass man nicht das Gefühl hat es sei überfüllt. Normales Zimmer mit Meerblick war schön, gross und sehr sauber. Restaurant abends/mittags kann ich nicht beurteilen, da ich mit Freunden unterwegs war. Der Strand war trotz Hochsaison nicht überfüllt, was sehr angenehm war.

Resepsjonisten var særdeles imøtekommende og serviceinnstilt. Sjefen hans var ikke det. Vi vurdete å oppgradere til spa for 120€ pr døgn, uten å skifte rom. Vi var på rom 2405, som har brukbar sjøutsikt. Premium-rommene har ikke det. Vi ble i det litt slitte rommet av den grunn. Hotellet har særdeles dårlig utsikt mot havet, til tross førstelinje mot en nydelig strand. Veldig bra frokost og fint bassengområde. Hyggelig ansatte, som alltid var blide. Golfdelen et veldig bra, og de har til og med Toptracer på rangen... og du kan til og med kjøpe rangeballer med kort på rangen. Etter min erfaring er dette uvanlig bra. Golfbanen var bra og kommer gjerne tilbake.

Never again- Hell on Earth

I chose the expensive Hotel Olivo from the pictures of peace and a bit of luxury. I couldn’t wait to swim! But the hotel is full of screaming, loud families with hundreds of little children, I tried to swim but there were 104 children in the pool. They also had loud disco- music and water- sports and Pool volleyball so if you didn’t get a diving kid in your head, you were blown out by the noise from micro- ported coaches and horrible music. One coach rolled her eyes at me and threw her arms in the air, practically giving me the finger when I asked where the adults could swim? The couch in my room came apart, the tv didn’t work and when it did, it didn’t have CNN or BBC, then the remote didn’t work, then finally it did- but then I couldn’t turn OFF the tv. Finally, a man came and ripped the tv off the wall! THEN it stopped! The evening restaurant said,” We are sold out- but when I walked by, there were empty tables. The noise and the hundreds of running, shouting, diving, water- bombing, crying kids was the worst. I am exhausted after my vacation and I shall never ever come back!

Falta escalera de fácil acceso en piscina y spa

El hotel está muy bien en general.
Solo tengo dos peros que la piscina no tenía ninguna escalera adaptada para personas con dificultades para andar, con lo cual mi marido no pudo bañarse, ni en la exterior ni en la del spa y otro es que el acceso a la playa es por una pasarela de madera súper mal puesta y con muchísimas dificultades para una una persona que tiene limitaciones al andar bien sea por enfermedad o por edad…
