Lovely hotel, friendly staff, ideally located close to the beach. We decided to go with breakfast only which was very nice. There is the town of Morro Jable 5 minutes taxi ride away which has some lovely restaurants and bars at the seafront. This is where we went for dinner as we didn't want to be "tied" to the hotel every evening. Would definitely recommend the hotel and location.

Great break. Food was really good and varied. The weather was surprisingly good right up to Christmas Day itself which started windy and slightly overcast but soon cleared up. Only issues were lift broken down for a couple of days and bathroom could have done with a decorate/refurb.

We had a wonderful wrap around balcony, again huge, with table chairs and 2 sunbeds.
The food was varied and catered for all tastes and nationalities.
The wholechotel was very clean, from rooms to all communal areas.
We'd hired a car and parked just outside on the road which was easy.

Many locals and some hotel staff have a better command of German than English because of the number of German guests staying in this area.
