Grumpy reception staff but lovely restaurant and bar staff. Hotel is fairly basic. Dont expect tea/coffee in your room as its not the Spanish way. Something for all tastes at meal times. Beds and pillows not very comfortable. We were there for the Iron Man event, 2nd time in the hotel. Would stay again.

Our Spain Getaway
We had a good stay at the MedPlay Hotel Sata Monica. Room was clean, beds were comfortable, had a decent view towards the ocean. Enjoyed a few beers from the bar, the staff were very friendly. Thought the breakfast was very good with lots of options. Hotel was within walking distance to good food, awesome beach and a great running path. We would recommend this Hotel and would stay here again. Don't know if I'd book trough a third party again. Getting tired of the unnecessary middleman. Finding out that you actually get more bang for your buck if you book directly with Hotel or airline and you get to save a few bucks in the process.

Recent family all inclusive stay
Great overall for the kids, all four single beds are comfy and a decent size. Room was clean and tidy. The walls are paper thin, so bare that in mind if you have small children that sleep light. We had family’s to our sides and below but above was a very loud.. I mean very loud couple, especially in the twilight hours, you could hear everything, and I mean everything, got the kids asking questions. The service at the pool bar was fast but the workers could have shown a smile, slight rush to sun beds in the morning but that’s the same at all hotels. The food quality wasn’t too great but what you would expect for the money. A bit of a struggle to use the lifts around meal times as there’s only two, you end up having to que up 3 floors for the restaurant, very unpleasant when it’s hot. The restaurant had a school canteen feel. Once in the restaurant it was a tad crazy, everyone rushing about, lack of respect for personal space. Seemed to be a lot of Russians which is surprising considering the sanctions at the moment.

Would not stay half board again!
The hotel was ok but cleaning was poor, dust under bed when we arrived still there when we left despite asking for it to be cleaned! Food poor choice and rarely hot, at dinner soup was the only thing you could rely on to be hot! At breakfast toast was always hot!!! Rest was hit and miss even when brought out from kitchen. On a positive note the staff were very good in trying circumstances! On one occasion the chef came close to wearing a meal when he just shrugged when presented with my cold meal!

Ok if you want a hotel with lots of Brits.
Nice stay, room was basic but we could see past that with the lovely sea view we had on the 8th floor, reception staff were very helpful, full English breakfast availablle, lunch and evening meal selection was very disappointing in the main restaurant compared to other hotels we have stayed in the area. Wifi was excellent in the room. Nice enough hotel but far too many Brits for us - think we will stick with the President Hotel.

Nel complesso è un buon hotel, solo se non fosse stato per la nostra prima settimana d'inferno, a causa di più di 90 ragazzi, tutti nello stesso nostro piano. Ogni notte a correre, gridare e sbattere le porte tra una stanza e l'altra, entrando anche nel nostro balcone sottraendoci delle sedie. Ad ogni nostra chiamata, gentilmente qualcuno della reception è sempre salito su a chiedere silenzio ma solo per poco tempo. Al quinto giorno abbiamo chiaramente parlato con il direttore e per causa di questi ragazzi siamo stati noi con un bambino di 2 anni a cambiare stanza e piano. La colpa non è solo dei ragazzi maleducati ma anche dalle direzione e gestione dell'hotel che non fa rispettare le regole in un luogo pubblico, un hotel serio al terzo reclamo li avrebbe mandati via dalla struttura o multati, ma non è stato così. Che vacanza terribile.

La personne qui est à l'accueil n'y a pas sa place on a l'impression de la déranger lors de notre arrivée , pas de bonjour meme en espagnol , on nous demande froidement notre passeport à la suite de quoi nous donnons notre carte d'identité , on nous l'a repose froidement en nous donnant juste le montant à régler pour notre séjour ! nous payons et on nous remet les cartes d'accès chambre et bar sans aucune explications .Arrivé à notre chambre , la climatisation ne fonctionne pas ( chambre 614) , nous descendons à l'accueil , on nous dit que c'est dimanche qu'il n'y a pas de technicien et d'attendre le lendemain . Chaleur dans la chambre température extérieur 33°C . Après une nouvelle réclamation on nous dit que le technicien est passé , la climatisation n'a pas fonctionné pendant tout le séjour ! 11 nuits !!!! de pire en pire le sois disant restaurant est en fait une cantine médiocre , à l'issue des deux premiers soirs nous demandons un remboursement de la demi-pension , on nous explique que ce n'est pas possible , même après avoir contacté expedia ! bruits pas possible a la cantine de l'hotel ! aucun civisme dans l'hotel ! sinon heureusement le ménage dans les chambres correct , mer a proximité et piscine agréable c'est tout . le bar de l'hôtel ou le personnel est aussi charmant qu'a l'accueil , on demande une sangria on nous sert un fond de verre de vin avec du sprite ! Aucun bonjour de l'accueil a aucun moment , le jour de notre départ aucune parole aimable !
