Beach Hotel Dos Mares

My recent stay at Hotel DOS Mares was an absolute delight, and while the facilities are wonderful—clean, well-located, and comfortable—it was the incredible staff that truly made our vacation special. I feel compelled to single out one individual who embodies the hotel's spirit of hospitality: Miriam, who works in the restaurant. From the moment we walked in for our first breakfast, Miriam greeted us with the most genuine and warm smile. This wasn't a one-time occurrence; every single morning, her cheerful "Buenos días!" and radiant positivity were the perfect start to our day. She creates an atmosphere that feels both welcoming and personal. Her amicable nature goes far beyond a simple greeting. She is incredibly helpful and attentive, always ensuring we had everything we needed. Whether it was a question about the local area, a special request for our coffee, or just a friendly chat, Miriam handled it all with effortless grace and a constant smile. She has a remarkable talent for making guests feel valued and cared for, as if we were visiting the home of a dear friend. In the hospitality industry, it's the people who create lasting memories, and Miriam is a true asset to Hotel DOS Mares. Her dedication and friendly spirit elevated our entire experience. We are already looking forward to returning, and a large part of that is to enjoy the wonderful hospitality she provides. Thank you, Miriam, and thank you, Hotel DOS Mares, for employing such a fantastic person. Highly recommend. See you soon 🙏🏼

A wonderful stay at Hotel DOS Mares, made truly memorable by the staff. A special mention must go to Miriam in the restaurant. She consistently greets everyone with a beaming smile and is incredibly helpful and amicable. Her positive and caring attitude every morning set the perfect tone for our day. She is a true asset to the hotel and a big reason we would love to return.

Amazing hotel with great design, vibe and friendly staff. I have been going there for more than 20 years, however sad to see how much the prices have sky rocketed. Kite school use to be super chill and now they have the pretentiousness to charge 190€ for ONE hour of private class. This used to be 60€ max.

We stayed at the hotel for 10 nights and liked it very much. The location is great, not far from Tarifa or Valdevaqueros beach, where we went daily to wing foil. The room was comfortable though the decor could definitely be improved. Breakfast is plentiful and tasty. The restaurant is nice and a great alternative for dinner if you don't feel like driving to town. The hotel has a pool and other amenities that seemed good, though we were uninterested.

I have to agree with other reviews I read that the front desk staff were extremely rude and unhelpful. I had called to inquire if they had a room available and was told they had one. I said I would be there in ten minutes and asked them to hold the room. I arrived in less than 10 minutes. When I arrived the 2 young women at the desk said they had not spoken to me and I must have spoken to someone who had left because they had just changed shifts. They had no note from the previous staff of my name and request to hold the room. It was very awkward! Luckily they still had a room! When I approached them other times I felt like I was not very welcome! They need to train them on customer service because the front desk staff are the face of a hotel and need to make guests feel welcome! I am not the only person to have had an unpleasant interaction with the front desk which made me feel better that it wasn't just me!

Went here for a coffee and tea with some friends. The view is beautiful and open all year round. During the winter, the fireplace keeps the dining area/bar warm and cozy.

Our favorite place on our visit to Tarifa in November. Stayed there by chance, after our booked hotel down the road turned out to be overbooked. The hotel is by the beach, you literally walk out to the beach. We spent a lot of time walking on the beach, and enjoyed it. The breakfast was very very good. They even allowed us to get breakfast earlier than their normal breakfast time to allow us to catch the ferry to Tangier. Well recommended.

We came here for the windsurfing school. It was my first time ever and I was treated so so so well. The teacher was so incredibly patient with me and gave me the confidence to just try and try and try again and be a little reckless in the water while trying, cause he was there with me to support me. I would totally recommend this school to anyone who has or hasnt windsurfed, even to those that might be a little scared of water, cause you will feel confident with these teachers. Thank you! 🙏🏻
