Here’s a polished review based on your experience:
Our stay at this hotel had both positives and drawbacks. On arrival, we were welcomed with an alcoholic drink, but only two glasses, not served on a tray. As we don’t drink alcohol, we asked if there were any non-alcoholic alternatives like juice or soft drinks, but were told there were none. However, the next day, we noticed that new guests were given drinks served on a tray with nuts. While I don’t believe we were intentionally treated differently, this might have been due to inexperienced staff.
Breakfast was lovely, and the hotel itself offers a beautiful view with well-maintained rooms. However, we had half board for three nights, and the à la carte menu remained the same throughout. By the second day, I found it difficult to select something new, especially as I don’t eat meat. There were very few options and no dedicated vegetarian dishes on the menu, which was disappointing.
On a positive note, when I mentioned that we wouldn’t be dining at the hotel the next evening, they kindly offered us the option to dine at one of their other hotels for a buffet dinner, which was a thoughtful gesture.
Overall, while the hotel has a lot going for it in terms of ambiance and views, the dining experience, especially for non-meat eaters, could be improved. Some better staff training and more inclusive menu options would make a big difference.

My wife and I stayed for four nights, and it was a great experience. Splendid location with local bars about, but not too noisy. We moved rooms into a jnr suite (thank you VV), which was even more luxurious.
Breakfast deal only for us, but the breakfasts were very good. We did order some room service pizza, which was also good.
Well recommended.

We stayed at this 5-star hotel for two nights. The location is fabulous. The room was fabulous. The view from our floor to ceiling room window gave a panoramic vista of Benidorm towards Altea. The staff were professional but inaccurate at times. The first morning, I waited for more than half an hour for scrambled eggs. The second morning, I received both my cereal and poached eggs at the same time. Although we had notified the hotel in advance that my wife is a vegetarian and they confirmed it upon arrival. At the evening meal, there were no bespoke vegetarian items on the menu.

Fantastic weeks stay in October 2024. Great food and drink served by friendly and excellent staff. Superb location with great views from the balcony. Would suggest a blackout blind for window in bathroom for room 16. Rooms are kept spotless and the bubbles and chocolates were a nice touch on arrival. Would stay again.
