Almarena Apart & Hotel Boutique

Such a lovely place, and the people are lovely too!

The setting is a big part of what made my stay at Almarena Hotel so enjoyable. You get the sea and the forest together, with beautiful ocean views from several spots, especially the rooms, and it feels wonderfully peaceful. The hotel is also easy to reach, well connected, and near points of interest around the destination. I found it suited work as well as a getaway. There are comfortable places to work during the day and unwind later, and the location and facilities work for couples, families, or business travel. The rooms are spacious and inviting, with a modern look, excellent amenities, and impeccable cleaning. The service is high quality throughout. There are plenty of ways to relax or stay active: a spa, indoor and outdoor pools, and a well-equipped gym. I also enjoyed running on the beach and nearby trails. Breakfast was a highlight, with lots of fruit, very good coffee, and fresh options. The eggs were especially delicious and cooked just right, and the view and atmosphere made breakfast even nicer. The hotel has Noi restaurant on site, which is convenient and serves excellent food. The catch of the day was super fresh and delicious. Ique Sushi was also super fresh and excellent for anyone who loves sushi. I had a truly positive experience and would recommend staying here. I'll certainly be back soon.

They were kind about answering my questions before I booked, and once I arrived the welcome was fantastic. My room was the most economical one, but it had all I needed: a very comfortable bed, huge TV, microwave, electric kettle, coffee maker, kitchen utensils, air conditioning, safe, and more. They also provide a beach towel, chair, and umbrella, and you're right by the ocean. The spa has a heated pool plus wet and dry saunas, and massages cost extra. I especially recommend the hot stone massage. There's room service with exquisite food, as well as the hotel's own Noi restaurant. Breakfast is quite complete and served during set hours. This resort has everything you might need. It's not a 5-star resort, but for my taste and budget, it was more than enough!

The apartment is beautiful and comes with lots of amenities, and the staff are very friendly. The fifth-floor area, for guests 16 and up, is gorgeous, and I really liked the spa too. I only wish the heated pools were open to the air for at least a few hours so I could sunbathe there. Breakfast is classic, though the croissants, pastries, and chipás are delicious.
