S'Abanell Central Park

Everything about the apartments was fine, but future guests should know about the man supervising the pool. He is extremely aggressive, rude, and completely unprofessional. He regularly invades guests’ personal space, shouts at people, and treats foreign visitors differently from Spanish guests. We personally witnessed Spanish children being allowed to jump into the pool while foreign children were shouted at for the same behavior. He also selectively enforces rules, such as banning foreigners from wearing caps while ignoring the same behavior from locals. This kind of discriminatory and intimidating behavior is unacceptable in any hospitality business. I hope the management becomes aware of it and takes action. Guests come here to relax, not to be harassed. Respectful, professional treatment of all guests should be the minimum standard.

Clean and well maintained complex with onsite security. I read other reviews about the pool rules and enforcement and we did not experience any issues. Everyone was very nice. Kids were free to jump in the pool and everyone had great fun. My kids wore sun protection tops in the pool with no problems and played ball in the pool aswell. We drank water at the pool but didn't attempt to eat as our apartment was so close. Beautiful walk along the promenade every evening, lots of lovely restaurants and supermarkets close by. I would highly recommend.

We had a great holiday. Elsa at reception was very nice and really went out of her way to help. To find the reception for S’abanell Central Park apartments (if you booked via this route - it’s on career d’enric morera (next to a couple of restaurants). We had a seaview apartment which was great. The kitchen had all we needed to do some basic cooking and breakfast - although I bought a mug in the local shop as I like a big cup for a brew :). The sofa bed in the living room was small so just note if you are thinking of two adults using this - myself and my partner shared this but it was a tight squeeze. Apartment was light, bright and had all you needed for a great stay. We hired a car and would recommend in height of summer to reserve parking in the apartment underground parking lot (local streets always seemed full of cars). The location is great. Directly opposite the beach, 10mins walk from the main part of town (and with plenty of bars, restaurants, kids parks etc) all around the apartments and on the way to the main town. Blanes is a really family orientated place. There are a few late night bars near the apartments but these didn’t cause us any issues as we were on a higher floor and we quite enjoyed people watching from our balcony. The pool is large (with shallow and deep parts so good for all) and there wasn’t a scramble for sun beds (plus you could set up around on towels on the grass if you preferred). The pool itself was lovely and in August, beautifully warm. The pool rules were… well… read the other tripadvisor reviews on this! The rules were extensive and strictly enforced by the caretakers (one with more of a smile than the other). There was no toilet near the pool and with no food or drink available to buy in the grounds and not being allowed to eat/drink around the pool, it was a pain to have to keep going back to the apartment each time for something. The grounds were immaculate and that was down to the caretakers. At the pool we used floats, pool noodles, sinkers and non inflatable pool toys. A large kids playground was just outside the grounds, plus smaller play park in the grounds. Bars, restaurants and anything else you might need were all around the complex. We would def consider staying there again (despite the pool rules/enforcement).
