Stayed for 5 days over Easter holiday here as we're used to come every year or almost and we've enjoyed being in a peaceful hotel, not crowded and without stress. The price paid (around 90 Euros a day) was fair and was inclusive of the buffet breakfast which was ok and good. More variety would be a plus. Egg station... More

We spent one night here in february. Costa Ballena is a totally artificial resort which, as other reviewers have stated, is a ghost town off season. Finding a place to eat to avoid paying 24€ + drink for a buffet dinner at the hotel was very difficult. Our room was large, clean and rather modern but wifi was very slow... More

Rooms spacious but lack of extra pillows, bedding. Wifi sporadic and need to log in each time. No tea / coffee facilities in room - big miss! Charges for using mini safe in room! Very clean. Food adequate but nothing special. 10 min walk to golf club along road or beach. Beach very clean. Out of season resort is almost... More

I spent 10 days here over the Christmas and New Year festivities and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. The location of the hotel is excellent as miles of unspoiled beach is under 5 mins walk away and it's right near the golf course too. My room was spacious, quiet and modern and was thoroughly cleaned every day. The Spa is expensive,... More

Nice hotel near a nice beach. Rooms are clean and big. The only but is the music at the pool at "siesta" time. If you do not want to encounter "small beings" this is not the place. The Costa Ballena beach is woth the while.

I have stayed at this hotel with my husband and his family last year and have booked again to go in September! We liked everything, from the location to the building, the staff, food, spa, views! We are very choosy but have no doubts about Elba Costa Ballena, can recommend to all, family, couples, singles. They have special deals on... More

A family centred hotel mostly for Spanish visitors. A great pool which the kids enjoyed and the poolside entertainment and evening show made this a kids delight. The 200 metre walk to the beach was fine adn the beach itsefl fantastic to sea the sun set after eating at the chiringuito which wa very reasonably priced. Breakfast was delightful from... More

This hotel sits between a golf course and the beach. The colour scheme is not to everybodys liking (green, brown and blue) but once you get over that the hotel is lovely. The staff were very cheery and helpfull. Food was good and plentyfull. Breakfast was a buffet, the usual hotel stuff including the undrinkable coffee! Gluten free bread was... More

We only spent one night there but we did some exploring of the hotel and surrounding area. It is a nice hotel very close to a lovely sandy beach (that was very quiet when we were there). Our room overlooked the golf course. It was not as clean as it should have been i.e. you could see dust on the... More
