Mar Hotels Alcanada

Just returned from a week's stay at Mar Hotel Alcanada. We wanted a small, quiet hotel in an area which wasn't buzzing with tourists, but not too far from local towns. This is exactly what this hotel gave us. On arrival, we were greeted by Felipe, who checked us in and gave us all the information we needed to settle in, along with a welcome glass of cava. Our room was clean, comfortable and well prepared for us. A lovely little balcony which overlooked the residential area, pool and the bay. Large choice of cooked or continental breakfast. Evening meals were very nice too. Pool was cleaned every day, and I did enjoy a few swims there. A spar shop next door where you could buy some provisions if you want to. Staff were excellent, very friendly, polite and nothing was too much trouble for them. Reception staff were available at all times to answer any questions, give advice, order taxis and generally have a chat. There are buses to nearby towns which seem regular, although we chose to use taxis, which are reasonably priced for local journeys. The location is in a residential area, with another restaurant across the road, but also overlooked the bay. Not a sandy beach, but still beautiful to have a walk along. If I was the manager of this hotel, I would be very proud of my staff who make the guests so welcome and comfortable. We will definitely return here at some point in the future, and recommend it to anyone who wishes to go to this area. Thank you all.
