The Best Hotel in Calp by Far
Pros:

This was our third visit to this lovely hotel in 2 years, we stayed for 9 nights from the 11th of July. we are returning in 8 weeks with some friends to make it the fourth visit. We are also planning to return twice next year 💪
The staff are all great and very helpful and friendly, a BIG shout out to Esteban on reception 👍 we had a small issue with our room 142 and he sorted it straight away, the view from the room is amazing 🤩 the breakfast area outside is amazing, the food choices are huge, there is nothing to want, fresh omelette and eggs available, cooked to order. Rooms are well equipped, aircon works well, lovely walk in shower, coffee and tea facilities, mini bar with a few free drinks included. Very clean hotel, there is cleaners all day around all areas, keeping the place spotless.
The pool bar staff are friendly, efficient and attentive, not badly priced beer and wine, complementary nuts and crisps, top tip sunbathe in the plastic grass area on the lower level it’s much more pleasant, the area around the pool bar is a bit to busy.
Can’t understand why people que before 9 outside and inside to get a sunbed 🤔 we never failed to get 3 sunbeds on the lower level.
Counting down to our next visit, can’t come soon enough.
Keep up the great work 💪
