MELIA COSTA DEL SOL

This hotel is the best I’ve stayed in, from the cleaners bar staff restaurant staff reception staff maintenance staff they all gave 100% , the breakfast was very good lots of choice, the hotel is immaculately clean , we had a great time , the staff should be proud of what they deliver .

Stayed on the fourth floor with a sea view, hotel situated in an area which was slightly quieter that what was on offer a 20 min walk away. Hotel breakfast. dinner and lunch was good. Food prepared fresh each day. We had a half board stay and they offered us the option of lunch or evening meal. It was good to have this flexibility. As it was an adult trip we used the roof top pool daily, we were there from when it opened to secure sun loungers. If you arrived later in the day these couldn’t be guaranteed. Not really enough beds on offer for the amount of people. Definitely not enough canopies for shade on the lower platforms. There were brollies dotted around mind you. There is an option to hire more luxurious private beds, didn’t really see these occupied, only the odd time. These were priced at eur 30 and eur 50. We hired Sun loungers on the beach which were affiliated to the hotel at at reasonable cost. If you’d like a cabana you would be well advised to prebook. The staff that work at this hotel are very hard working and polite. If you don’t get a bed on the rooftop area there is an elevated platform above the ground floor pool. Most children and families choose to sit nearer the water so this is a good option if you’d prefer a quieter sunbathe. The sun does cover the pool and loungers (including the platform) in the afternoon as it comes round, this suited us as we enjoy the shade. Found the drinks to be good value. The rooftop bar has a DJ in the evening, we enjoyed this, it was a nice view and used it most nights to close our evening off.

Location is ok. Atmosphere without a personality. Rooms clean. Value for money - questionable Staff needs training to welcome guests
