  Not 4 star but not the worst either

  26 Jun 2026

  If your looking for a basic place to stay with friends. This place is perfect. It isn’t the worse but I wouldn’t say it’s a 4 star hotel. We stayed for a week being 3 girls in our 20s. When we got there it was about midnight and we was still able to check in and get to our room. The hallways and lift are quite run down but okay for an average hotel. The lift is tiny and there was one point when we tried to go in the lift and it started beeping as it was over the weight limit??? Never experienced that before. The room was basic, had a balcony facing the pool which was a nice view and we could see everyone coming back from the clubs in the night so that was an experience to say the least. The security was very strict. We was told off for having music on at 10 but the hotel was blaring music from the bar so we was very confused. There was one night we was sat on the balcony talking to some people off the balcony, not at a ridiculous time and wasn’t screaming either. But we had a flashlight flashing at us and told to go inside. So we spent the rest of the holiday in silence in the room because making too much noise wasn’t allowed. Yet our neighbours were allowed to scream the whole day long, all through the night and move their beds about at a ridiculous time. Although we did feel safe with the security with being so close to the strip and having drunken people walking past all the time. They should just consider that people are on our holidays, we should be allowed to sit on our balcony???The food wasn’t amazing but that’s as a fussy eater: there is a lot of food places very close to the hotel so it wasn’t too much of an issue. They have your basics like chips and pasta but then the rest was fish dishes which wasn’t particularly appetising. The breakfast was just standard buffet, can’t complain about it too much as it wasn’t terrible at all. The pool was the best thing about the hotel. The sun was on it all day and we spent the majority of our days by the pool. It was lovely, they have music playing all through the hotel and the bar star are all really friendly. definitely made us enjoy the trip. There are alot of younger children, I’d say maybe 14-17 year olds who stay at the hotel for sport activities so the pool during the day did get packed at some points so claim a Sunbed from early on in the day.Overall we would stay there again and it wasn’t shocking, the staff, pool and location definitely make the hotel. Just a shame about the security. Thank you hotel Maria del mar. Tania María del Mar, Marketing at Hotel Maria Del Mar, responded to this review Hello,Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your stay.We are delighted to know that you enjoyed our location, the swimming pool and the friendliness of our staff. We also appreciate that, despite some aspects not fully meeting your expectations, you would consider staying with us again.We are sorry that our security team's actions seemed too strict. Their role is to prevent noise caused by situations outside the hotel's activities and to ensure all guests can enjoy a peaceful stay, always acting with the utmost respect. Our entertainment programme, which is clearly advertised before booking, finishes at 12:00 midnight. From that moment on, our security team ensures that the house rules are respected so that everyone can enjoy the best possible experience.Regarding the food, we are sorry it did not fully suit your taste. Our buffet offers a wide variety of options every day, including salads, vegetables, soups, rice dishes, pasta, pizzas, traditional Spanish cuisine, as well as a live show cooking station where guests can request freshly cooked meat or fish.Thank you once again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back to Hotel María del Mar in the future.

  A noisy, drunken hotel with unfriendly security and staff.

  29 Apr 2026

  The hotel looks great from the outside, but the experience inside is very different—and honestly concerning. The rooms seem fine at first, but you quickly start noticing cracks, strange noises, and signs of wear that make it feel like things aren’t properly maintained.What’s most worrying is that some parts of the hotel feel unsafe. Our balcony is visibly tilted, and the fence is unstable, to the point where it genuinely looks like it could give way. That’s not just uncomfortable—it’s a real safety risk and something a hotel should never overlook.On top of that, the staff and security were unfriendly and overly intrusive. It’s hard to relax when you’re constantly being stopped, questioned, and asked for ID. While checks are understandable, the way it’s handled feels excessive and stressful rather than professional. A friend of mine was also not allowed to enter the hotel just to visit, which made things unnecessarily restrictive.The noise level is another major issue. There are many young guests who are constantly drinking, shouting, and blasting music from speakers all around the hotel. It’s nearly impossible to get any sleep—noise continues late into the night and often until around 4am. Tania María del Mar, Marketing at Hotel Maria Del Mar, responded to this review Thank you for sharing your feedback.We would like to clarify that the safety and wellbeing of our guests are an absolute priority. The hotel is continuously inspected and our maintenance team carries out thorough checks to ensure that all facilities are safe and in good condition for our guests.Regarding the security staff, their role is to maintain order, ensure guests’ comfort, and control access to the hotel, always with the aim of guaranteeing everyone’s safety and rest. For this reason, access for non-guests may sometimes be restricted.As for the noise, although there may occasionally be guests behaving in an inconsiderate manner, we do have security staff present every night to intervene and help maintain a calm atmosphere within the hotel. In any case, we would appreciate being informed through reception at the time so we can act as quickly as possible.Kind regards.

The pool is nice. Location is nice. But I will NEVERRRRRR come back here. The airco is in the inside dirty. Under the bed is dirty. Everything is just dirty and it smells. I have trauma Tania María del Mar, Otros at Hotel Maria Del Mar, responded to this review We are truly sorry that your stay was not as expected.

  This hotel needs new management.

  17 Dec 2023

  Stayed one night at this hotel. Kept awake with banging doors and a wake up call at 2.35 am. My complaint wasn’t logged, the response being a shrug of the shoulders. Breakfast was chaotic and needs to be logically laid out. E.g. tea bags at one end, hot water at the other and milk half way between!
