Hotel Marina Playa Reviews

Excellant hotel. Very clean and spacious. Rooms had 2 double beds. Excellant location. Beach just across the road. Beach a little stoney, normal for the area. Weather was fantastic, Apr, although pools and seal were cold. Hotel had an excellant covered outdoor pool. Like a greenhouse. Kids loved it while we sunbathed outside. Food was excellant. Area was very quiet, ideal for a weeks break durning easter or school oct week.

Entertainment and staff mostly Spanish. Great opportunity to learn the language. Our kids were learning words after only a week. Going back in Oct school week. Mojacar village in the mountain is one of the most stunning places in Spain. MUST have a car.

This appealing hotel is situated next door to the Oasis Tropical at the far end of the resort. Opposite a gritty beach the hotel is in a more residential area, very quiet with little going on around it. A great chilling out place but would leave the younger set tearing their hair out. Only two years old it is very contemporarily furnished and because it is built up a slight hill, the reception is on the 3rd floor and all the amenities down below on the 1st floor. Good outdoor area with swimming pools and many sunbeds, even in mid summer I think there would always be some available.

good restaurant with a large variety of food on offer. Not always to the British tastes but you would definately not starve. Much ";show"; cooking of meats. My only gripe would be that the restaurant didn't open for evening dinner until 8pm, a little late for us. Rooms were spacious and our ";twin"; had two double beds. There's a small fridge, balcony with chairs and table and safety deposit box (charge) There was no tea/coffee making facilities but there was a coffee shop on the ground floor along with a gift shop that sold newspapers.

Some nights there was low key entertainment which was very pleasant although I suspect not enough for some people, though it must be realised this was October. Would we return to this hotel? Yes, I think we would if we were looking for a short break just to chill out. The busier end of the resort would be the place to head for if you wanted touristy shops and restaurants but then if you are in a hotel on half board you don't need the restaurants. This is a straightforward account of how we found the hotel and resort.
