Labranda Aloe Club

Couldn't fault this hotel , lovely clean room with pool view, lovely pools, plenty sun beds, plenty of choice food wise, every thing on tap for drinks and snacks..we had a really relaxing holiday and would come back to this hotel again...plenty of shops within walking distance and the beach close enough too...maybe a lick of paint required here and there but that is work in progress , weather was lovely

We stayed for a week in February half term. We'd booked a 1 bedroom room but were allocated a 2 bedroom room which was a bonus since we were travelling with 2 children. The room was spacious, clean, and a good shower. It was in a quiet spot too and we had no problems with any noise. It could have done with a bit of updating, but nothing that would put you off. The staff were without exception polite, helpful and friendly, especially the reception staff. Everyone was friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We had a couple of minor issues with our room which were fixed immediately on reporting so didn't cause us any problems. All staff made our children feel welcome too. It was definitely a family friendly hotel. Food was not tremendously exciting, but all seemed to be fresh, regularly replenished, and there was plenty of choice for the whole family to find something they liked. The snack bar (for afternoon snacks) was a bit limited (seemed to be limited to hotdogs and burgers mostly), but was good enough to see the kids on until dinner. There was no shortage of food available all day (all inclusive), plus ice cream and the usual drinks. The pool bar could get a bit busy as there was only ever one staff member serving, but not really a problem. Pools were good. At least 3 were heated and were warm enough to enjoy swimming and playing in. They seemed to be well maintained and safe. There were lifeguards on duty all the time the pool was open who did actually seem to watch the pools and the kids playing in them. There is childrens entertainment in the form of a mini club, although we didn't really use it other than the nightly mini-disco. There is a play park for young children, and a small football pitch and a volleyball court. There are also some game machines (air hockey, pool, table tennis, etc. which require money (except table tennis which was free). So there was plenty to do. There was also some daytime adults activities which you could join in with if you wanted, but they weren't pushy. It was set a little way from the main town and the beaches but you could walk in about 20 minutes, or taxi for only a few euros. There was a park nearby too. The hotel also runs a shuttle bus daily to the "grand playa". (A really big beautiful beach about 5 minutes drive away). Well worth a visit. Lovely wide open beach with soft sand and gentle slope into the sea so safe for children, although it can get a bit windy and then the sea a bit rough. It was quite quiet whilst we were there, however there didn't seem to be all that many sunbeds and the place for the evening entertainment was quite small, so that may cause some problems when the hotel is full. Overall, it felt like a friendly welcoming hotel and we would recommend it especially for families with young children.

We have just returned from a 3 night stay at the Aloe Club. Having only booked 1 day before departure we didn’t have time to look up the hotel properly. We had a brilliant time and really enjoyed our stay. Every member of staff was friendly and always willing to help. All staff work so hard and will go out of their way to assist you. Our room was massive for the two of us and was very clean. We were all inclusive and there was plenty of choice for food. The restaurant wasn’t too busy and you never had to queue for the buffet. The main town was around a 15 minute walk in which we did in the day however at night taxi was around 4 euros so well worth it when going out!
