Sierra de Aracena and Picos de Aroche Romantic Holidays

Hotel is away from most amenities. To stay here, a car is needed. Bolt was a savior. Beach is down a set of steep stairs with broken steps. Hotel messed up on an order for vegetarian Caesar salad when it was served with bacon and chicken. Lounge entertainment was a nice diversion.

Is older that it looks on the pictures Stuff is ok Rooms are tiny View amazing so overall is 3-4 stars

We had a fantastic stay at Vida Mar. The property was beautiful, staff were friendly and accommodating and the proximity was great for us for all the places we wanted to visit.

Great rooms, friendly staff and the pool area is fab. Breakfast is also really good and on till 11am daily.

Beautiful new property. Hard to figure out how to get to reception so just give them a call.

Really enjoy the stay.

We stayed at Palmares Signature apartments a week with our 2 boys. The property is beautiful, modern, unique concept, great furniture, partial sea views from the terrace, fully stocked kitchen ( cuttlery, glasses, cups, pots and pans although we have not eaten in the apartment). The two rooms are connected thru a short outdoor hallway which offers privacy between the master/living room and the second room. The restaurant views are stunning. Cleaning staff were wonderful, always on time and did a great job. You need a car as Lagos is 12 min away. Unfortunately some things didn’t go smoothly hence the rating. The A/C in the main living area hasn’t worked. The room temp hovered around 25 until it fully died, leaking on the floor. Staff have offered to move us to a new room ( lower floor though) that had the same broken A/C. As the A/C was still working in the bedrooms we decided to not move.They brought a noisy portable A/C for living room with towels spread on the floor to contain the leak. The water was lukewarm until the last day when it was raised to a comfortable temperature. The breakfast was good quality, decent assortment but every day the same. After 7 days it got repetitive. The beds were not as comfortable as we were expecting from a resort of such caliber. There is construction at the property although they try to contain it. The windows are great at protecting the units from the construction noise. All in all was not the experience we were hoping for.

verry nice hotel,i will come back.

The Residences apartments are good quality with large rooms and well equipped. We have stayed at the Victoria hotel before, but this was the first time in the Residences. The Residences are no longer associated with the hotel. The lack of a shuttle bus was our biggest disappointment as previously we got the shuttle into the marina and it adds €30 onto your nightly evening meal for taxis. There is a new Taverna Pizza restaurant just over the road which is very handy and we went there a couple of times. No local shops for groceries and it was 1.5km walk to the nearest supermarket. The pool was good and plenty of sun beds, but a bit chilly if you are a toe dipper! Overall it was very nice, but I think next time we would chose somewhere closer to the marina.

We’ve enjoyed a 4 night holiday in this hotel and we’ve thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The rooms were tidy and clean and we had partial sea-view and it was honestly lovely! The balcony gave a nice sense of privacy. Pool was great! Perfect size and in my opinion never really overcrowded. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Honestly nothing bad to say.

Lovely little hotel tucked up side street minutes from the square but far enough away to not be disturbed by night life noise. The hotel is a little dated but it was spotless the water was hot air con and WiFi was excellent. Lovely little pool on the roof with a few sunbeds you can basically do what you want. Breakfast is very basic it’s fine for me as I don’t really do breakfast but if you like your traditional fry up then there are plenty of restaurants in the square to chose from. We hired a car and parking was tight near the hotel but at the top of the road was two large carparks. The owners fernando and his wife are lovely and helpful I will be returning later in the year. Good restaurants are ones in the square and through the tunnel to catch the little train go to the end of the beach and go up the escalators the train stop it at the top. They do take cards.
