Myself, husband, son and his friend (aged 17) have just returned from a 6 night stay. This was a very last minute booking that we made using our avios points. We chose a 4 bedroom villa which had 2 king rooms with en-suite bathrooms and a further two twin bedded rooms with a family bathroom. There was a large living dining kitchen area and a huge balcony of one of the king rooms on the upper level. There was also a large wrap around terrace patio area. You could access the villa through electric gates and a front door on one side and patio doors out of the rear. All with key card. The bedrooms, bathrooms and living area were all very clean and modern looking. The kitchen had seen better days but was white and clean. The appliances seemed slightly old and the washing machine did not work very well at all. Seemed like the final spin was broke and so everything came out dipping wet which was then hard to dry outside. The toaster also had issues and didn’t seem to work on one side and only partly on the other. There were also lots of ants on the floor, by the windows/doors and crawling on the worktops and sideboard. During our six nights, we had housekeeping give us fresh towels and the villa was cleaned and beds made etc on one occasion only. It would have been nice to have a couple of extra towels to swap out when get wet. The villa is set in a complex with lots of smaller two bedroom units and lovely grounds leading to the pool area. There was a reception area with huge bookcase full of books you could borrow and snack bar by the pool that served a huge menu of really lovely and very reasonably priced food and drinks. You had to pay for pool towels which was €2 per day per towel or you could pay €8 for a week per towel. There was a pool table, and table tennis table by the pool and also saw a kids play area. We hired a car and was able to park it on our own villa drive. It did have a garage attached to the villa but did not use this as was very small. It would have been nice to have a sweeping brush and ironing board. But there was an iron, a couple of dishwasher and washing machine tablets and paper towels and toilet paper. The bathrooms had a combined shower gel/shampoo in the shower but no conditioner or handwash. There was 2 safes and several large flat screen tvs, but no English Chanel’s available. The location of the villa was a couple minutes drive from beach and restaurant areas and walkable in approx 30 mins or less. While I hated how windy the island was, if the need arose I would stay here again.

Fantastic quiet resort with great pools dining experience is exceptional, best food for miles around and excellent staff who greet you as great friends. Very clean resort, and brilliant staff.

The resort is well laid out with plenty of space between each property, allowing a high degree of privacy. The accommodation is comfortable and the staff are all very pleasant.

Love this resort, I think it’s gone a bit downhill though, pools are freezing, Christmas decorations around the hotel weren’t there. Cleaners didn’t come until day 3. Restaurant nice food but very understaffed as can’t accommodate for the people coming in who aren’t staying at the hotel. Measures of drinks less but drinks very expensive compared to other places in playa Blanca. Such a shame as used to love going there. I will try again when I am back next month.
