"Roquetas De Mar"

Overall Resort Rating:

The beaches are gorgeous and if you fancy a nice, long walk (about 30 mins) you can follow the promenade all the way to the local harbour which is very pretty and has some nice restaurants.
In Roquetas, the amount of bars and restaurants is quite limited. They were nice for on a lunchtime when you wanted a nice refreshing pint of lager as you get free tapas with every drink and therefore gets you a free lunch at the same time.

The hotel is pretty big which is good as it means a lot of choice for dinner and good entertainment.

"A sleepy part of Spain"

Overall Resort Rating:

If you are looking for a nice peaceful relaxed holiday then this resort is the place to go. With it's laid back and peaceful approach to holidaying Roquetas del mar is perfect for the person who just wants to unwind. Don't expect to find strips and strips of bars with people falling out of them drunk. Instead the resort offers peace, quiet and good food and restaurants. Expect it to get slightly more busier when the weekend arrives as the Spanish hoards do bombard the resort at this time. However, it will not spoil a pleasant and relaxing holiday.

"roquetas de mar"

Overall Resort Rating:

roquetas is an exciting new city on the up. It looks well kept and elegant. It has theatres, bull ring, exhibition centre, shopping mall and lots of touristy shops down on the urbanisation. The port is great for restaurants and seafood. A lovely city plenty to do for all kinds of people.

"Quiet"

Overall Resort Rating:

This is a quiet resort with little to do for teenagers in my opinion. However, it suited us down to the ground and would be great for most young families I would say. We met plenty of people who returned year after year which speaks volumes.

"The Holiday That Never Was"

Overall Resort Rating:

Roquetas de Mar is a place which didn't have much for the british person. There is no nightlife and not much happens around the resort.

"Fantastic Time at the Neptuno"

Overall Resort Rating:

As described in other reviews, the resort centres amongst the cafe society set and we found this to be very relaxing (even our 2 children, really enjoyed the resort). If you're looking for a typical British holiday abroad, then this is not the resort for you. However, to experience a more traditional Spanish holiday in a very safe and relaxing environment, then you can't go wrong with Roquetas de Mar and the Neptuno.
