Hotel Victoria Playa

We stayed for 3 nights and had a half-board food option. The breakfast was good, there were fried eggs, boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon, beans, grilled tomatoes, also continental breakfast options like hams, cheese, butter, jams lots of bread options and cereals. The dinner was very good, there was never a repeat in 3 days we were there and in addition to traditional Spanish dishes there was a speciality table, we had Chinese on the first day, seafood on the second and burgers/KFC style chicken on 3rd day. The swimming pool was not very busy and the kids enjoyed the slide. The room was clean and has been cleaned every day. The cocktails were reasonably priced and you were allowed to take them into the swimming pool area in the plastic glass, just tell the barmen "para piscina". The hotel is only 5 min walk from the beach.

The only thing I really didn't like is that smoking is allowed in the swimming pool area. There are kids everywhere and these irresponsible adults smoking in their faces, just unbelievable. We had to move a few times so as not to "enjoy" the aroma. These days there are even chiringitos on the beach that ban smoking. The hotel of 4 star must be able to allocate a smoking area away from children, or at least divide the swimming pool area into smoking and non-smoking zones.

The hotel is very close to the sea and you have to walk down the main street. However, it is definitely not beachfront.

When we came back from the city at around 23:00, the lock on the room broke and we couldn't unlock the door. The hotel staff changed the key card 4 times and it was only after the fifth time when we asked to go together to see what had happened that the hotel staff went to see what had happened. The lock was out and we waited for about half an hour in the corridor, sitting on the floor in the extreme heat while they fixed the lock - and it is a 4-star hotel. We entered the room in no mood.

The staff was fantastic. The hotel was super clean and well-maintained. The room was just what we needed. Very comfortable beds, air conditioning worked great during the July heat, nice balcony. A Mercadona a few minutes walk and the beach and souvenir shops less than five minutes. Breakfast buffet was huge and had something for most tastes. Really good pizza and panini at the outdoor bar and the entire pool area was outstanding. We stayed eight nights and did not have a single complaint.

Nice breakfast with fresh fruits. Dinner buffet has various choices. Location of hotel is good in relation to the beach and old town.

We travelled in the off-season so hotel was a bit too quiet

An accessible location, perfect for the end of my long business trip. Lovely heated outdoor pool, steam room, good gym and solarium. Flexible dining facilities, restaurant or cafe, large balcony with view, great housekeeping service. This is a legitimate 4* hotel run by a competent management team who know what a decent hotel is all about.

Jacuzzi/ hot tub a real problem, for us hot tub means hot, after a swim not barely luke warm, seems very inconsistent temperature levels across Spanish hotels when it comes to jacuzzis. We feel the temperature for the hot tub at the hotel was not warm enough. The heated pool was warmer and we could therefore not stay in the jacuzzi longer than 5 minutes whereas for the heated pool our team stayed and swam comfortably non stop for over 30 minutes!

All the staff were extremely helpful, especially in the dining room. A good, varied selection regarding our breakfast and our evening meals.

The parking was difficult but we were thankful that our holiday was out of the school holidays. I can't imagine what it would have been like in the high season.

The staff, the activities for kids, the pool and slides and the bar were all great. All the attention for kids was really superb, our 5-year old loved it. Our room and all around the hotel was very clean. The breakfast buffet is good and very well organised.

There isn't really a proper car park and the parking situation is a bit chaotic. However, there were plenty of spaces nearby. The location is good, although it's not beachside and the walk to the beach isn't the nicest route. We had the evening buffet one dinnertime and we didn't think it was very good although others seemed to like it. There was certainly a lot of choice.

From check-in to check-out, everything was perfect. The room was both clean and comfortable. The food was of good quality, and had a lot of choices. Even though they had groups of teenagers staying (handball competition), everything was well organised. The dining staff worked wonders making sure regular guests were not impacted by the sudden arrival of a team.

We only stayed one night but saw nothing to complain about.

The recptionist at check in was very friendly. The dinner selection was very good but I recommend taking the early seating as the hot food was quite dry by 9.30pm. The staff in resteraunt were very nice and covid protocols are followed. The hotel is fabulous and very clean.

Everything was very clean but I was disappointed to see decorative throws and cushions on the bed. I don't think these are replaced after every stay. I could not order 1 glass of wine as a sole traveller - only a bottle. This was disappointing. I drank water with dinner. The lights in dining room are too bright at dinner time. Felt like being in a canteen.

We are a family with kids and I loved the positive atmosphere, the care that staff took for us to feel comfortable and safe. The pool and slides were great, we all enjoyed the time! :) Dining is very good, plenty of choice for every meal!

It’s difficult to park the car anywhere close. Location is not great if you want to visit the town as well. Felt a little outdated, especially for a 4* hotel and the price paid.
