Hotel Don Diego by Ĥ ★★★

"Very good location and very good facilities"

Melia Isla Canela ★★★★

"Just returned from a lovely week’s stay with our large family. We were all delighted with the hotel and what it has to offer. The hotels reception, dinning and seating area are beautiful with a real calming feel which helps you feel instantly relaxed. Our room was clean and had good storage for a week’s clothing. The bathroom felt a little dated but the shower was hot and powerful. Rituals toiletries was a lovely touch. We opted for half board and were happy with the choice at breakfast and our evening dinner. The food was delicious and even the children had plenty to eat. It would have been nice to have water free of charge with evening dinner. ( found this expensive) . The ice cream served in the ice cream parlour is wonderful and the lady who serves is so friendly even helping my daughter who is learning Spanish. The pool area was always clean and had plenty of beds. It was nice to see the no reservation policy in place. My one negative was the pools were very cold . This didn’t bother the rest of the family but for myself I wasn’t brave enough. The hotel’s location was great with walks to the marina shops and bars . The beach is huge and makes a beautiful morning walk. On a final note a big shout out to the entertainment team they do a great job and we all enjoyed the evening entertainment. Especially the little ones loved the mini disco."

Parador de Ayamonte ★★★★

"To nitpick... we ordered a coffee at 8:00 AM, and it was only served if you ordered the full breakfast (€20). There was no other option because the cafeteria was closed and there were no vending machines. Mr. Receptionist, if a lady asks for just a coffee and there's no option, I'll go to the buffet and serve it myself as a courtesy from the hotel, and I'll be a gentleman. Just because of this, I will probably NEVER RETURN TO THIS PARADOR."

Isla Canela Golf Hotel Boutique ★★★★

"Visited here with a group of friends for a weekend golf break in September. Firstly, the hotel. Very good; clean, comfortable with professional and friendly staff. My room was a large double, well equipped with a spacious bathroom. Our accommodation was on a B+B basis so only experienced breakfast in the restaurant. Plenty of options for continental breakfast which was fine but the hot offerings were pretty poor and could do with better presentation. Secondly, the golf. We played the "Old" and "Links" courses. The Old course surrounds the hotel and was very enjoyable to play. Tees, fairways and greens were all in good condition and well looked after. All the holes offer varied challenges and the mix of rough, trees, bunkers and water also allowed plenty of leeway for the higher handicappers to negotiate. The Links course is about 20 minutes drive away and the hotel can arrange minibus transfer. This course, as the name suggests, lies right on the edge of the river separating Spain and Portugal. Although in generally good condition, several areas of fairway and green approaches were a bit bare and in need of attention. Greens were true, some very quick, the others in the more sheltered areas, a bit slower. A persistent strong breeze off the river also makes it a different test across the whole round. In all, a couple of good courses which will appeal to golfers of varied abilities."
