Friends and I stayed at Los Almendros in March 2013 for a week. One of us almost got cold feet prior to departure due to some very unfavourable reviews. We'd like to give our impressions. We found the whole set-up at Almendros great. Staff were welcoming and friendly. The grounds, including some fabulous looking cacti and palms, were very well-maintained.... More

The place is very well locates. Beach is not far, very tranquil pool area - no wind, all bars & restaurants are close also. The place in general is not bad & very simple, it's not a luxury boutique hotel. But normal place for spend time with friends on the island. The bungalows are clean (cleaning service works very good),... More

Just back from 8 nights at Los Almendros. This was our fourth stay here and have to say that it continues to be a great place to stay. Positives: Location is brilliant - 10 minute walk to the Yumbo centre, close enough to get there easily but far enough away so as it's not on your doorstep and noisy. Reasonable... More

We have been regular visitors to LA for many years. Our last visit was Feb/Mar of this year, when we also saw lots of other familiar faces returning. We never ask for a specific bungalow, just a quiet location, and this is exactly what we got. The new reception team were great, thank you for meeting our request. It was... More

Stayed here for a week in 2012, and loved the place BUT the noise at night from the teens in cars, clubs blaring out until the small hours and then at 6am EVERY day the noise of breaking glass as the bottle banks were emptied right outside the complex, whilst the majority was excellent this did ruin the nights! Good... More

Cleaning staff were amazing, bungalow was cleaned throughly 6 days out of 7, clean towels every 2nd day. Bungalow was well maintained, and decorated, flat screen tvs in living room and bed room...

Stayed here many times and have had great holidays under the wings of Respect Holidays and Raymond Oconnor who became manager after Respect holidays went down. Raymond is no longer at Los Almendros! This is sad! The place is really ready for a refurb and a major one at that.My partner and I discovered that we gays can now get... More

I've been a regular at LA for many years now. The place has gone a bit downhill over the years and needs a lot or investment - the bungalows need complete updating. I think the resort rests on its laurels a bit. The long-term barman continues to be rude and arrogant and needs to be sorted - it would mean... More
