Playa de la Arena

Very nice hotel perfect for mini break as literally 5 minute taxi ride from airport, sea views across the complex

The Location is placed very near to all amenities although if you didn’t know the area, it would not instantly seem so and you have to walk around the perimeter of the complex to get to the main street as there is no gate cut-through. For expediency I have bullet pointed the positives and the negatives and score at the end. Negatives; • No Washing machine. • Very basic cooking facilities i.e. Microwave & Electric Hob. • No broom or dustpan and brush or pegs to hang washing. • No iron without payment. • No water in fridge or any complimentary coffee/tea on arrival in apartment. • No pool towels, additional door key for each occupier, Room Safe access, Air con/ TV remote without payment or deposit and must be in cash. • TV is basic and had cobwebs behind. Unable to plug i.e. a fire stick in as only one socket for the TV. • Poor or no night entertainment. • No communal feel around bar area. • Towels not all changed. Positives; • Has three pools & play areas for kids if you have them. • Has a little shop in complex for fresh bread, milk, drinks and the other basics. • Reception open 24/7 • Astro turf 5- a- side Football pitch and Tennis court. • Gym/Indoor Pool & Sauna although not really used by anyone while we were there. • New Aldi supermarket about 10 minute walks away. • Comfortable apartment for short stay only. Air con in bedroom only. • Comfortable beds. Compare to other surrounding apartments we have stayed in before in this area, it’s quite poor. 6/10

Fantastic Stay at Jardines del Sol! We had a great time at Jardines del Sol. The villa was spotless, spacious, and located in a peaceful area — perfect for a relaxing break. The pool area was very well maintained, and the on-site pool bar and restaurant served excellent food with friendly staff. It’s about a 15-minute walk to the nearest beach and supermarket, which was easy and pleasant. If you enjoy walking, there’s a lovely coastal path that takes you to a larger beach and more shops in around 25–30 minutes. Overall, a wonderful place to stay — highly recommended if you’re looking for comfort and a quieter location, and don’t mind a bit of walking.
