We went to the Algard 6 years ago and had a great time and thought we'd go back with out two young children this year. It seems that in 6 years nothing has actually been done to the hotel and it was exactly as we remembered it but obviously showing its age, Rooms are Ok but furniture/beds desperately need updating as not the most comfortable, door to balcony did not close properly which made it quite noisy at night and water dripped from the air con every time we turned it on. The air con in the restuarant was the same with water dripping from the ceiling most days (not the most hygenic). Outside plenty of beds but again in need of replacing as very old and uncomfortable. The pool is in desperate need of being replaced as it is not child friendly at all, there is a very small section for children and the main pool goes from being deep to being very deep in a matter of feet, our 8 year old just managed to touch the floor at its shallowist. Entertainment was not the best, most nights seemed to be the entertainment team miming to various songs with a bit of dancing, day time activities were not much better same every day, darts, pool, table tennis and attempts at water polo. the kids entertainment was very poor, the kids entertainer Ninky was very nice but explained there was very little budget for kids entertainment, which consisted of making sand castles, collecting shells, painting, needless to say we made our own entertainment most days. from speaking to various people it seems the hotel is to receive a makeover at the end of season so lets hope it's much better next year, even so I do not think we will be returning

I have just come back from the Algarb for my 3rd year and have almost booked again for next year. i can not falt the algarb the staff are great, the entertainment team always have activites goin all day from 10AM till middnight., the rooms are quite big i share with 2 other adults and all 3 of us had more than enough room each, the view from the balcony is one of the best anywhere especially in the morning, the food is fantastic always fresh, if you come out saying you are hungary thats your own falt the choice is huge. the hotel is always clean. the pool is nice a little small for the size of the hotel and could have a bigger shallow end.

i cant wait till i go next year

“Nice hotel but shame about the place”

2/4 found this review helpful

We booked through well known package operator despite not having done a package holiday for over 2 years. But it was a good deal and its nice to know someone should be around to help if required. (Like when I had my wallet nicked whilst in the hotel bar! If crime is not a problem here, why does the rep have a folder full of freshly filed incident reports!)

The hotel has nicely refurbished but small rooms all with reasonable views towards the sea. However, the main areas of the hotel missed out on the modernisation but the decoration was tired but inoffensive. The main feature which attracted us was the large garden area beyond the pool but dont bank on this being there next year, there going to build some very nice apartments on it!

Buffet meals were good considering this is a 3 star budget hotel (lots of choice, good quality and regularly topped up throughout the service) and the staff where really friendly (but having our 9 month old little angel with us might have had something to do that)

The biggest disappointment was outside the hotel. Playa den Bossa looks like its been around a while but at the same time looks unfinished and lacked any atmosphere to speak of. The nearest restuarants where BK and KFC/Pizza Hut but the pastelaria did add a bit of local flair. There is no beachside promenade to the south of the hotel and beyond the Jet Apartment (apt name!), there is lots of build land yet to be occupied. This might be due to the aircraft passing so close overhead that no further building was allowed.

For us the best nights out, either to walk up to Figueretas or take the ferry into Ibiza town from next to the Torre del Mar hotel.

12/13 found this review helpful

Me and my boyfriend have just returned from a lovely holiday in playa d'en bossa at the hotel fiesta algarb. It was albsolutely lovely and we enjoyed every minute there. It is a quite and relaxing hotel with people from all over the world, including both younger couples, familes and older people. We cant wait to return next year for 2 weeks!

Food -- Breakfast was very nice but evening meal was below avarage for the British
Cleanliness -- Hotel is spotless and rooms are cleaned daily with fresh towels
Rooms -- Comfortable and clean with lovely views of the sea and beach
Staff -- Friendly and pleasant and available if needed at all times.
Pool -- Very nice pool with free sun beds
Beach -- Absolutely gorgeous beach right next to the hotel
Nightlife -- Exellent nightlife...Ibiza has some great clubs and bars (Big Bens english bar is great) and just across from the hotel algard!!

Overall, would give this hotel 10/10. The only thing I didnt like was that we had to vacate our room at 12pm and we didnt leave Ibiza until 1am so we didnt have much to do for the rest of that day until we flew home Although they do let you have a room for about half hour at night for a shower which was better than nothing. But its lovely and I would recommend it to anyone,

at first the hotel may seem a little on the dated side, but once inside the hotel is extemly clean. all staff are friendly and happy to help. good choice of food both in the morning and at dinner time. the hotel is disabled friendly and during my stay there was serval disabled people there. evening enterainment was ok more aimed at the whole family. our bedding was changed every other day and we had clean towels every day. the pool is the only area that i feel needs to be changed the water is very deep although there is a life gard on duty. the childrens pool is very small. there are lots of sun beds but if you choose to sunbath on the beach you will have to pay for the sunbeds.
places to visit the water park is a good day, a little expensive, you have to pay for sunbeds and umbrellas, and food is very expensive.
