Playaballena Hotel

“ Beautiful hotel! Lovely food! Excellent spa facilities! Highly recommended! The bed was huge!

“ Top Tip: Lovely beach just at the bottom of the street! Very clean and sandy!

“ If you enjoy an "all inclusive" and over indulging in a well maintained friendly hotel yards from a lovely beach with some evening entertainment this is as ideal as many of the others along this coast. Lovely pool area, nicely landscaped gardens, spacious bedrooms, plenty of buffet style food plus a 9 hole crazy golf course, indoor pool (bit small) and bike hire (good cycling paths in the vicinity so nice and safe for children).

“ Top Tip: Go for a bike ride - available from the hotel at €3 an hour and plenty of cycle paths

“ Hotel very new set in purpose built beach resort with level walk ways in all directions. Very clean tidy and well kept. We stayed in March but weather more like UK June with many flowers in bloom including roses. Pool area very good, but beach has miles of level clean sand and acess from hotel is trafffic free. Did try swim in the sea but with a wet suit. I went for a run by myself most days and felt quite safe. There is also a trim trail and numerous 9 hole golf courses within walking distance.
Some shops, but most shut in marina area until May.

“ Top Tip: Good central point to stay for visiting the cities of Cadiz, Jerez and Seville.
Highlight of our trip was seeing flocks of flamingos, and storks on giant nests.
The roads are excellent and Gibralter or even Tangiers are possible for a day trip.

“ We have two young children and have been to a number of All Inclusive hotels in this area and found this to be one of the better ones. Good quality wines and spirits included in price. Good selection of freshly prepared food (incuding pancakes). Attractive gardens and pool. Clean modern rooms. Lovely long golden beach a very short walk. However mini disco starts too late (for us), at 9.30 or 10pm depending upon night and you cannot order cocktails at the bar until after 8.30 (shame!).
