“An Enjoyable & Worthwhile Spanish Experience at a Top Class Hotel ”

As regular travellers with SAGA I booked this late holiday at Isla Christina having never holidayed in Spain before. It was a larger hotel than we were accustomed to, but it was surprisingly friendly and personable. Our seaview room on the third floor was large, comfortable & cleaned daily. The hotel facilities including our all inclusive experience were exceptional. There was a varied menu on offer and we were somewhat surprised at some of the negative reviews we had read. Just goes to prove always go with a balanced view and enjoy the holiday experience. Whilst only there for a week we managed four trips including a Tuk-Tuk ride and Harbour Boat Trip. Everything was within easy walking distance and all in all we enjoyed our Spanish experience.

I would like to give this hotel more stars as it is clean, good value, and has a great location. Had a high room facing the street and the park across the road which was very nice with lovely soft pillows. There are two pools and all the facilities you could want. The buffet food is generally good and although the pasta was not really hot there were plenty of other choices, so easy to avoid. I was surprised that the hotel seemed very full out of season and meal times were crowded. The big drawback is the loud "entertainment" . This occurred every night and days as well, and there was no getting away from it in the hotel. The music and shouting through loudspeakers varied from mildly annoying to ear shattering. Even the Higuerita bar, furthest from the loudspeakers, was still noisy. At times it sounded as if a drug induced rave was going on! I was glad to be in a room facing away from the pool. Being on all inclusive it was very annoying not to be able to enjoy a quiet drink anywhere in the hotel. The location is great. Step outside the hotel on the beach side and you have peace and quiet, a lovely beach with boardwalks and lots of wading birds at low tide. Further away through town and across the bridge giving entry to the "island" is a Paraje Natural (nature park) of extensive mudflats and saltpans with many birds such as flamingos, spoonbills, storks and waders. . Further still you come to the Via Verde (green way) - a lovely peaceful trail which goes for many miles through the countryside. This is only a few miles away and easily reached by taxi or bike. It is possible to hire bikes from the hotel for 15 euros per day and there is a great network of flat cycle paths both within the town and along the main road out of town. Be careful to check the bike however as the first one I took had a fault and had to be exchanged before I'd gone half a mile. I was a Saga customer and the rep Chris was very helpful. Booked a trip to Seville which is well worth it. Note that if you do not go on the guided tour you get a price reduction and can have six hours there on your own. The Plaza de Espana is a must see! All in all a good location and a nice hotel apart from the noise.
