We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights and personally thenis hotel is not a 4 star and need to improve on a lot especially with their front house staff. On the day we arrived there was 2 staff members at reception, however we waited 20-30min before we got served. Both staff members were serving one customer at the same time and not a single one of them greeted us.
Rooms: The rooms aren’t as big as they make them look on the pictures. The TV in the rooms had all the apps, Netflix, YouTube etc. but none of the apps worked. When we called reception to ask, they informed us that the only thing available to watch on the TV was live TV, none of the apps were working.
Rooms were not that clean. We discovered on one of the nights that our sheets had not been changed, however the beds had been made. Now hygienically that’s disgusting. One of our kids had put body cream in the sheets by accident and in the evening as we were about to sleep, we found the same sheets still on the bed. Now that makes you think what else they were not cleaning. Toilets were dirty with stains in them. Towels were also not that clean. Before you sleep, please check your sheets as they might not have been changed but the bed would have been made.
Swimming: Both outdoor pools were not heated. During the time we went the weather wasn’t the greatest. Meaning the kids couldn’t fully use any of the pools. The least they could do is have the kids pool heated. There’s a large seating area near the bar, which was nice and small playground for the kids which our kids enjoyed. There was basketball court, but no balls and when we asked at reception they mentioned that they didn’t have the balls so that was rubbish! There was a small wellness centre (spa & gym). The sauna & steam rooms were rubbish as they were not working. Even thought they made an exception for the kids to be allowed in the spa pool, ours kids kept getting kicked out by other guests which wasn’t fair because all they wanted to do was swim.
Food: The Food wasn’t the greatest. Some meats were raw which was very unpleasant. Buffet was quite small with a limited choice. There was a lot more cold foods than hot food. Cocktails were rubbish. Glasses were always dirty in the restaurant. Restaurant staff were however very polite and nice with great customer service. Outdoor bar staff were also nice. However reception staff were so rude & arrogant especially Maria & Paula the two older women. Re-training is highly needed on how to speak to guests regardless or their age or ethnicity.
There was no entertainment during our entire stay. According to the staff, it’s because it was the first week that the hotel had opened, despite the hotel having quite a lot of guests.
Two days of our stay, it rained heavily and there was only one medium sitting area for guests to sit in. The bar wasn’t opened! No music being played! No TV! There was basically nothing to do.
Hotel location is not the best. It’s in the middle of residential houses, the views from the balcony aren’t the greatest.
Would not return to this hotel. It’s not worth the money.

We loved our stay at the hotel. Everything was really clean and the design was lovely. Outdoor pool area was spacious with plenty of sun bed/seating options. We made use of the great indoor pool and spa every day too which was so relaxing and peaceful. Breakfast buffet was great. Staff were all very friendly and we really appreciated the view of the harbour from the room and the wheelchair we hired for a few days.
We thought the location was perfect, it was lovely to be able to explore the harbour in one direction and a sandy beach 10 minute walk in the other direction and be in a peaceful town that didn’t feel like a resort. It was nice to have the square in front of the hotel to visit for evening drink options as the hotel was very quiet with no bar available after 11pm. It would have been nice if the indoor bar area was open as it looked like a lovely space.
We had a hire car with us and had no problems finding a space to park - there’s parking all around the hotel.

Lovely hotel, unusually laid out on different levels. Spotlessly clean, there were a lot of young families here, we travelled as a couple and found it suited us. Food at the pool bar was very nice, excellent choice of drinks. Paula in reception was lovely, so helpful with everything. Can't comment on food at dinner as we were bed and breakfast. Room was very comfortable, it was nice having a separate sitting room. It would have been nice to have tea and coffee making facilities. Overall we had a lovely holiday and fell in love with Portocolom.

We spent one week family holiday in this hotel.
Staff are very friendly and kind, very nice and clean throughout.
Beautiful pool area, plenty of sunbeds all day long, nice pool bar and kids and adult entertainment every day.
Do not trust the negative reviews about the food, everything was amazing tasty same on the evening and morning, every day different never had a same dinner and breakfast.
Someone complained about the room size, but for us 2 adult and 3 kids room was perfect size.
Beautiful beach near by, about 5-10 min walk, and lot of restaurants and souvenir shop around.
Only down side about the hotel, that nothing to do around, very very quiet place.

We stayed in this hotel for a week (half board), it was an amazing stay, clean rooms, amazing buffets, pools and playground for kids (our baby had so much fun!). There were a lot of families, we liked the ambiance. Every night there was entertainment shows for the kids and adults!
The bartender is very good! The drinks were delicious as well as the food! The staff are so nice and so helpful! (All of them)!
A great hotel overall! We would go there again 😍
