For context, we are a family of four, toddler and an 8 year old. We stayed in the Don Pedro side of the hotel for seven nights, all-inclusive. We had use of the entire complex. The hotel seemed busy but I'd imagine the summer gets crazy with the size of the place. It felt quite relaxing this time of the year. Rooms - We booked a Sol Xtra Family Room. We had hoped to upgrade on arrival but there was no option available. I felt the room was too small for the four of us. We managed but it was cramped. The room itself was lovely, nice balcony, comfy bed, good shower, coffee facilities. The room was nice and quiet. Food - Overall I found it very good. I'm vegetarian and there were plenty options for me. Lovely salads, pasta, potato options. There was fresh fish and meat cooked to order also. Breakfast was lovely, loads of fruit, pastries, nice coffee, cook to order eggs. Loads of cheeses available with crackers etc, I really enjoyed that. We never really got snacks at any of the bars as we were too full from our meals but I think it's not very clear what the options are outside of meal times, there wasn't much advertised around this. I really can't imagine how you'd struggle with the food options here, there was so many options. Drinks - All perfectly fine for us. You can upgrade to Gold All Inclusive (€12 per day) to avail of a few extra premium drinks but I honestly don't see the point. The gins, vodkas on the normal all-inclusive had many branded drinks. Really liked the cava they had. Pools - Outdoor pools were very cold. There was an indoor pool which was great. I think one outdoor pool being heated would have been great, considering there are so many pools on site. There were loads of sun loungers available. Location - Directly across the road from a lovely beach. Perfectly located for walks along the promenade. Close to the airport. We felt very safe and secure here. There was a security guard at the gate of the hotel and vehicles weren't allowed in very far which was great for peace of mind with kids around. Bars - Bar Jimenez in Pedro was nice enough, if a little soulless. Bar Ingles in Pablo was a bit livelier and had a warmer atmosphere. The Blue Horizon looks onto the beach which is gorgeous. Really lovely spot to sit. Staff - Everyone was very helpful and you felt like they wanted you to enjoy your holiday. I generally felt a nice vibe from all the staff which is nice as you get the feeling it's a nice place to work. Cleanliness - Couldn't fault it. The room and balcony were spotless. Coming down to breakfast one morning the cleaning staff were cleaning everywhere around reception. The general areas are so clean. Overall, I would recommend this hotel. I would imagine that it's a bit crazy in high summer but then most resorts are. There was very little queuing for food, drinks, reception during our time. Our kids didn't use the kids club so I can't comment on that but it did look like the staff were quite engaged with the groups of kids they had. All the other guests were quite pleasant which does make a difference. Last year we were in a hotel were some of the guests were incredibly rude and disruptive and it ruined it for us.

“Sol Don Pedro ”

I recently stayed at the Sol Don Pedro in November. We had a nice room and booked half board and had a good choice of food each evening. The reception staff were always most helpful and went out of their way to address any questions. Will definitely return thank you for a nice time.
