We have just returned from our second stay at the Playa La Arena, and once again were not disappointed. Staff are helpful and pleasant, we hardly had to order our drinks as the waiters were on hand just as one was finished. Wonderful!! The food was excellent, different themes each night and usually steak cooked to your liking. We chose... more

This was our fifth visit to this hotel in three years and its just great! The last review on 'domestics' is excellent and covers lots of detail - all of which is quite correct, anyone interested should read it. The main advantage over its competitors is the value for money provided by the half board rate and the free taxi... more

I agree with all the positive comments about this hotel – it’s a great place to stay. So my review covers all the domestics you may be interested in – and to act as a reminder for me when I return next year! Coach transfer takes around 50 minutes. There can be a significant number of coaches in the airport... more

This hotel is the best 4 star hotel I have stayed in Europe. The food is absolutely superb. If you are half board you are in for a treat....the food very varied each night and superbly cooked...the fillet steak is as good as any fillet steak in a top London hotel. Breakfasts are also excellent. There is just so much... more

Just returned from our second holiday here. We booked with the Spring hotel's website and paid on check in. We got just what we asked for - double rooms on a high floor with good views of the pool and the sea beyond. The foyer of this hotel is immense and very well set out - makes you gawp when... more

I went here with a bunch of scientists, for a meeting, and apart from the fact that we put an unprecedented strain on their interernet service (basically we blew it away), I agreed with the glowing promises of the conference organizers about what a great hotel it is. I have rather basic tastes and it is likely the fanciest hotel... more
