My family and I had the most amazing time at the Essence Hotel Boutique! The hotel was like something out of a dream. Our room was super stylish and comfy, with the coziest bed ever. The pool area was our favorite spot – it was so relaxing to chill there and soak up the sun. The food was delicious too! We loved trying all the different dishes. The staff were super friendly and always happy to help. They made us feel so welcome. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a fun and unforgettable family vacation!

The amenities in the property are second to none. Such great ambience and a really good location. Close to the beach and walking distance to the train station. The 24h access to the pool is a nice touch.

What an absolutely fantastic hotel. Staff members could not do enough for you. The cafés & restaurants in the Avenue were largely patronised by locals, as it’s quite a residential area. I felt as though I was really on Spain as opposed to a tourist area. Beach very close by with lots of nice restaurants. I can’t wait to return. I had my birthday at the hotel & received a gorgeous cake in my room.

Fantastic place, fabulous stay
Had a fantastic 3 night stay and loved this hotel. Would definitely recommend and also return there. Rooms, maybe not the biggest, were still very well set out and perfect for us. Our room (412) had a bathroom door that wouldnt fully shut but that's a minor issue. Pool was heated with a huge steam room that you can use daily. Two jacuzzis. Chairs, bed around pool were superb. We had breakfast which was outstanding in terms of choice and quality. The rooftop Space Monkey bar with another large jacuzzi must be visited too but a bit chilly by night this time of year. All staff were fantastic, always good to speak with, very friendly and helpful at all times. The location was excellent close to the seafront. Town centre, above the resort is a 10 minute walk. All in all, we had a wonderful time.
