Very lucky to spend 12 days here over Christmas. Hotel impeccably clean. Food delicious. Room and all hotel areas very beautiful. In these very difficult times this hotel stands out from other hotels due to one factor: the nicest hotel staff. From the cleaners to the restaurant staff to the front desk, all lovely and helpful. We will be back!

This was our third stay at the hotel and we are returning in June. Very rarely do you find somewhere that is truly perfect for your needs which is why we will return every year. In difficult times the hotel went above and beyond to make our stay the same as it usually is and apart from wearing the provided face mask from your room to pool and restaurant everything was as good as ever. It was lovely to see a lot of the same staff and meet a few new ones. We had a first floor room this time around the back which was very quiet with beautiful garden plants/tree views from where I got some great photos of the parakeets feeding as well as hawfinches and a hoopoo on the grass. I have requested a ground floor next time though as my arthritic hips did not favour the stairs! Food as always excellent and the barbecue nights as good as ever with great live music. The restaurant has a lovely atmostphere at night and although there were patio heaters most nights we did not need them as temperatures were around 18 degrees. The hotel was very quiet, great for us but I feel very sad for them with the constant restrictions from the UK which are totally unfounded with such low cases but GC has has been lumped with Tenerife where cases are growing. Our flight was diverted on the return to another airport and it took us over 12 hours to get home but managing to get 10 days here made it well worth it and we cannot wait to return in 2021!

A world leading hotel. The entrance is lovely. Interior and exterior of hotel was very nice.
The check in was easy but check out took too long.
Had room 137- which was a standard room with a terrace however just off the main thoroughfare to the piano bar. The room location is better than rooms at the back which is quiet but was very dark as a lack of sun.Door handle have a hollow design and had dust collection in it.
Pool area is small and felt crowded. Noisy children playing made it less relaxing at times and also there were people at the pool who choose to have their mobile on ring and was not using ear phones when listening to messages etc. There was also a german speaking swimming instructor barking out commands to a young boy which was uncomfortable both in terms of noise and manner.
Pool restaurant for lunch was nice- lovely service from Bettina and Tamara and the food was great.
Gym was functional but again we had the German swimming teacher who doubled as a PT doing a class which took up the space for free weights.
Positives
Tea and coffee with cake on Monday and Friday at the piano bar
Live music at 2030
The BBQ buffet on Sunday but not on Wednesday( also in negatives)
Excellent spa area with salt water pool
Underground car parking
Close walking distance to the promenade
Rooms facing the pool
Negatives
Some rooms lack privacy such as 137, 138
Not adults only - kids played at the pool and was rather noisy.
Need to remind house keeling to Resupply water, coffee capsules and body cream consistently- there was a day without coffee capsules - had to call front desk to inform.
Interior dining music is terrible in the restaurant and spoilt the mood/ ambience
Dinner at 8pm- twice too many people turned up and there was a 20minutes wait- first time sat in doors , second time- went for a drink and came back
Bbq nights- Sunday is better - lobster and stir fried prawns , Wednesday was disappointing- was stressful as you spent along time queueing for food but on the plus, we drank less alcohol as we were less often sat at the table!

We had booked to stay end March but could not travel due coronavirus. Last year we paid the hotel 8,000.00 Euros as a non-refundable booking (knowingly). When we could not travel the hotel refunded us in full, even though they had no obligation to do so, and they are facing times of terrible uncertainty. Big shout out to Marion Schmidt and her colleagues. When the crisis is over we will be staying with them, and thanking them personally.
