Liked the beach club the size of the guest rooms. Private balcony/patio was fantastic! The onsite restaurant had very limited offerings and way overpriced. Nearby locations offered few restaurant choices. This is more of a local s area and we didn’t really feel very welcomed at these restaurants. Property should probably have extra coffee makers and remote controls available for guests. . Both of these items did not work during our stay and there was no replacements available and we had to just do without these amenities.

The hotel was closed for a wedding so they did not want to check us in despite having prepaid and accepted our booking. No facilities available ie no pool no bar and no beach ! No offer to compensate - suggested we go somewhere else which was not passable as our taxi had left . Very poor experience and Expedia should have advised us if the hotel wasn’t going to

Nice big room. The bed was large and very comfortable, the staff was nice the pool and spa are also very nice. You can’t beat the location on the beach and the location to the airport. You will hear the planes taking off from a distance but they are not directly overhead and the rooms are dead quiet. Not easy to get to downtown Barcelona. The cab ride cost about 28 euros to the old city. They also have free parking. I would not hesitate to stay again.

Lack of maintenance ruins a beautiful hotel

This hotel has so much potential if experienced hotel management took over. For the rate charged, they really miss the mark to achieve the luxury accommodations expected. We had to wait a little after the 3pm check-in time as we were informed there was maintenance issue underway. Once we got to our room, we realized said maintenance was them fixing the private pool, however it was still broken and unfilled for our entire 3 day stay. The TV also had a busted screen, the curtain buttons didn’t work, and some charging ports were broken. They gave us a discount on our booking but not enough to make up for delivering a sub-par room. The rest of the hotel is beautiful and we enjoyed the spa pool in the basement, though again lack of maintenance appeared with half the jet buttons broken. We did enjoy the restaurant and the beach. A taxi into Barcelona will run you around 35 euro each way so keep that mind if you plan to go often.

I loved the artistic unique boutique hotel designed furnishings & construction materials. I didn't like & is preventing me from staying again the staff that purposely tried to rip me off on my dinner. They charged me twice the amount for my crab, placed it on ice after steaming & brought my butter 20 minutes later while the crab got saturated in the melted ice water then foubled the charge. Young incompetent workers attempting to make a quick buck while taking advantage of their job. They should be fire immediately.
