Nereida

We stayed here July August 2019, loved every minute of it, the pool deck and majority of the apartments have an uninterrupted view of the sea, the sunsets were amazing, the sea is only a few metres away from the pool deck with access to the rocky beach, from which we went snorkelling everyday , the chillout bar was amazing. Very family orientated, friendly staff, you have to pay a charge for the water in the apartments which is safe to drink, and there is a supermarket straight across the road the apartments are basic but clean. Would go back again.

Myself and my friend (both in our 20’s) booked to stay here for a 4 nights. First impressions of hotel were really good, we saw some absolutely dire looking hotels during the transfer so we were happy upon arrival. We paid for a sea view apartment.... we got a ground floor room right next to the pool. I suppose you could kind of see a tiny little bit of sea from the right angle but it was definitely not sea view. Our “balcony” got no sun and we didn’t feel we could sit out and have a drink because we were literally a stones throw away from people sunbathing. We were extremely disappointed but decided to get over it and try and make the most out our week. The choice of drinks was fab! Wine very drinkable as was the beer and cocktails. They did come from a machine but I’ve had worse! Nothing to complain about with the drinks. Food was a different matter completely - I was keeping an eye out on their Facebook page and the selection of food looked awesome. It was not. Very limited selection - dried out hard pizza every day, spaghetti bolognese every day, one or two choices of meat which was dry and not tasty. The salad bar was nice and so we lived off this for our stay! The chefs Caesar salad was actually really nice and probably the only decent thing I ate all week. Snack bar was chicken nuggets, crisps, burgers and hot dogs. Didn’t try any of this so can’t comment. The pool was far too deep! Even the very shallow end too deep for kids! There was always a sun bed available - no issues there. The sunset terrace where they advertise an Ibiza D.J. set every night is in fact a man in the corner (really nice guy though), with a laptop playing music, and nobody ever sits down there!! Nice looking area with w gorgeous sun set!! But no atmosphere whatsoever. The “beach” isn’t a beach at all. Read other reviews about this, no need for me to repeat. Definitely not good for kids at all. However the view is gorgeous and does make up for the lack of proper beach. Evening entertainment is honestly none existent! One evening there was a man who walked around with his bird and put it on your shoulder... actually felt really sorry for the bird just being carried around attached to a rope while the guy walked around with a fag in his mouth. rest of the week there wasn’t any entertainment, just a woman with a laptop playing disney songs til around 10pm. Nothing goes on after this time, if you’re wanting this hotel literally as a base for you to explore then it’s probably ok if you plan properly. However there is absolutely NOTHING going on in the bay (certainly not in September anyway) and to be fair we went for a long walk and didn’t pass any clubs so I can’t imagine it’s the liveliest place even at the height of summer. There are places to eat close by but it’s the same typical all inclusive food they’re charging double for. If you do stay here make sure you know taxi numbers, prices and where you want to go. There was a water taxi but it closed really early so this wasn’t an option. I wouldn’t return to this hotel and don’t recommend it at all for families! Pool is far too deep, nothing goes on at the hotel either at day or night, and the area isn’t the best for activities for kids. If you are using this hotel as a base because you are going to sleep all day, wake up have something to line your stomach and a few pre drinks then it would probably work for you! Also if you’re an older couple who want to stay somewhere quiet this hotel would serve that purpose - very chilled and quiet, and you would probably find somewhere to eat locally that suited you. One last good point is that even in September the weather was still 30 degrees so we did enjoy sunbathing by the pool!

Booked this as a last minute break in search of some sun Clean apartment with what you need although basic and 2x single beds that weren’t comfortable. Kitchen area met our needs although you need to use a pan to boil the water for a coffee. Kept spotless by the daily cleaners who always greeted you with a smile. We had a room above the entrance but could still see the sea. Took the bed and breakfast option and decent selection to cater for all although the cooked selection wasn’t the best we’ve had. Coffee machine took a bit of working out to get a decent cup. Pool area was decent and plenty of beds available when we were there. The beach I wouldn’t call it that, more like a bit of waste ground and a walkway that lead to rocks that wasn’t very accessible for swimming and not for young children Was about an hours stroll to the marina in the bay with options for eating along the way but beware that a lot are closed in October. It met our needs but I wouldn’t revisit however nothing to complain about Tip- ask for high floor as noise travels from above and we were unlucky enough to have a herd of nocturnal elephants above us!
