A late review! We stayed last summer for 10 days, half board. Warm welcome from pleasant reception staff, sea view room was absolutely worth the extra. Housekeeping excellent, everywhere kept spotlessly clean. Restaurant staff, again very pleasant We had a hire car for the duration and had no problems finding a parking spot on the road outside the hotel. Few negatives; our air con did not work for the whole holiday, we spoke to reception everyday about it being fixed. Finally day 7 we were offered another room! We realise we could have made more of a fuss and they would have probably resolved it sooner! But it wasn’t super hot and we managed, sleeping with the balcony doors open. We are not pool people, we like exploring the area and going to the beach. However, one afternoon after arriving back earlier to the hotel we thought we’d try it, the only time we did. We were told off by the lifeguard for moving the loungers into the sun. He was quite rude, he could have just politely asked. Breakfast was lovely, great selection. Dinner was a little bit of a let down, being vegetarian there was not a big choice. We like a few meals at local restaurants, but we ate out more than we would have. You can get by but it would be very repetitive, chips and salad etc. If I can give one word of advice to the hotel it would be - Please don’t put cut up ham/bacon in with the fresh vegetables or just keep some separate. In my pre veggie days I would have been more than happy with dinner, I realise I’m fussy 🤣 It was nice that you were able to get drinks with dinner which you don’t normally have when HB. Easy walk to the beach, shops, bars and restaurants, our favourites were Ascension and Masala. We hadn’t been to Caleta de Fuste for approx 10 + years and felt the area had gone downhill slightly, empty shops/hotels. Probable result of Covid as with other places. Obviously not the hotels fault. Would we go back?? Yes, but bed and breakfast. Overall, despite a couple of negatives, we had a lovely trip, just a few things that could have been improved.
