Hotel Gran Garbí

Big hotel in an excellent location on a quiet street but close to nightlife and the long beach. Lovely coastal walks. Very helpful staff. Rooms a bit tired, but fine. Good value. It was kept very clean. Lots of choice at meals with fresh fruit particularly plentiful. Indoor pool was a not very warm. Outdoor pools were cold! Sea was warmer.

Travelled me and my 3 kids, felt safe here, we were placed on 4th floor but we don’t like lifts so got moved to 1st floor (have a baby) wasnt a problem for the staff at all, very grateful we had a very large room with 2 bathrooms. The indoor pool we felt lets the hotel down. The food hall can get very busy, but there was plenty of choice at breakfast. Also bar staff are very friendly!

Don’t allow any negative reviews put you off about this hotel. I was in Spain with my family during school holidays in August . Memories of our experience are still vivid.Gran Garbi Hotel was an excellent choice, we had an amazing experience, staff such as receptionists and cleaners were all very professional helpful and polite. We were especially pleased that the kitchen staff met our dietary needs by offering Halal Food, they even prepared a birthday cake free of charge for my daughter during breakfast, making the start of her birthday very special.I also love the fact that the hotel is surrounded by a variety of restaurants shops etc. Besides the two swimming pools within the hotel, there is also Aqua splash Park,where the kids had fun throughout our stay. I can’t fault this hotel. I highly recommend this hotel .

Incredible experience – exceeded all expectations!||Before traveling, I must admit I was a bit worried because I had read some negative comments about the hotel and the staff. But to our surprise, the experience was absolutely wonderful and couldn’t have been better!||Right from the start, we were warmly welcomed. The bartenders are super friendly, attentive, and fun – we even became friends with them. The restaurant staff, who cleared the tables, were always polite, smiling, and made every meal more enjoyable.||Another highlight was the kids’ entertainment. The entertainer Pedro is simply amazing with children! He has such contagious energy and keeps the little ones happy and engaged all the time, which gave us peace of mind to truly relax.||As for the food, I had seen many complaints saying it was repetitive and poor in quality, but I completely disagree. Every day there were different, delicious options, well-prepared and varied – nothing to complain about at all.||The room cleaning service also deserves recognition. The housekeeping staff came every day, left the room spotless, always replaced the towels, and took care of every detail with great attention.||In summary: our stay was fantastic, and I recommend this hotel with no hesitation! For those who are unsure whether to go or not, don’t worry – you won’t regret it. The hotel has a dedicated and welcoming team, excellent services, and creates unforgettable moments.

There were pros and cons. The pools were nice, but the water was very deep which wasn't ideal for us with young children. There were about 30 sun loungers for a hotel with 500+ rooms. The water park area was really good. The canteen food was fine, but very busy and long queues for each station. There were good choices for meat eaters but almost 0 vegetarian options, even most of the salads had meat in them. All the staff were friendly, with exception of the hotel manager. The rooms were cleaned every day by really lovely cleaners, but unfortunately we found our room had bed bugs. The manager reluctantly agreed to let us change rooms, but to a cheaper room and at no discount. He refused even to help us move our bags. He found the situation very amusing and was super rude. The rooms are tiny, we had a family room, which was 4 single beds pushed up against eachother to squeeze into the room. Paper thin walls between neighbouring rooms, so you can hear everything! The entertainment was good, our kids loved the kids discos. The hotel is situated in a party area, so its really, really loud at night. If you're a young person looking for a party holiday you'll love the area, but we found other the towns nearby much better for families.

This hotel has been not but big disappointment. Upon booking you look at the pictures provided - beautiful rooms - splash park- playground - big buffet ,however, upon check in you go to your room that is so dated , beds are camp beds , bathroom had tiny bath tub that hardly fit an 8year old child with legs bend … cracked tiles , towels with holes , not the cleanest . All entrainment adversities for kids is not there unless you book between June and 1st week of September , we have sadly a found out at check in that aquapark is shut from 14th September which was not advertised when we were booking in . Playground is literally a tube with a shape of caterpillar and that is it . Throughout our 7days stay kids disco happened only twice for 30 minutes each . And there was no other kids activities . Food wise also a big disappointment very basic , very little to choose from , very bland , also not catered for children , and to get a piece of cake was nearly impossible, we managed to get 1 slice of cake on two occasions and once the cake was still frozen . They put one cake at a time with all people wanting the cake and were not replacing when gone . There was also a lot of young adults tour groups checking in . They were loud , very loud , banging on the doors , shouting and partying at the balconies and corridors and those walls are not very sound proof either . This hotel certainly is not family friendly and catered for young people that only care about partying. Unfortunately this stay with this hotel has been nothing but disappointment and for that price to feel like an intruder through your stay is just sad . I wanted my children to have an amazing time , luckily the weather has been fantastic so the beach has saved the trip although one rainy day we were stuck in the hotel with nothing to do literally. I would avoid this hotel at all costs especially if planning to go with children . Also the area leading to the hotel when wet is extremely slippery. I very rarely leave less than 4* reviews however this stay was just one pricey disappointment and no positives that I could put.

This is not a four star hotel. It is a three star at best. The pool areas are great for kids and is the best feature of the hotel. Try to get to sun loungers early to avoid disappointment. ||The location is good in terms of its proximity to the beach and is very close to the clubbing quarter. ||The food is adequate. The dinner and breakfast options do vary daily but after 5/6 days, your stomach starts to yearn for the sweet nectar of boiled celery. ||The staff service is ok. The housekeeping staff are accommodating and delightful at times. However the bar and restaurant staff carry the aura of a dull fatigue from listless career in the hospitality sector. ||The biggest drawback are the rooms. The decor is a monument to discount 1970s minimalism. The 4 single beds provided for our family of four left barely left any floor space. Coupled with a tiny balcony, it is enough to convert cabin fever to coffin fever. While being somewhat antiquated, it was clean. ||If I was a young man looking for basic lodgings in a fever of alcohol soaked clubbing experiences, this hotel would suffice. However, as a husband and father of two children, with an appreciation for breathing room, I will not be returning to this hotel.

Went to Hotel Gran Garbi for 8 nights and had the best time. The hotel rooms might be outdated however they were spacious and very clean, the cleaning ladies were cleaning it every morning and were super friendly.||||The hotel staff were fantastic always ready to help and serve you with a smile apart from one bar staff Juan who never smiled and rolled his eyes when serving drinks. When asked to fill the baby bottle with hot water he only filled a little whilst everyone else was happy to fill it to the top so we wouldn’t have to keep asking for it all the time. Shout out to Raki (sorry if misspelled) he was so lovely and friendly, would serve you with a smile every time and was just helpful overall. The drinks part of the all inclusive were good and you have quite a lot of options, I was impressed. You can also but other drinks that are not part of the all inclusive and they give you a 50% discount on everything.||||The food was good apart from breakfast- I guess we were expecting more options for breakfast and some fruit options as most hotels do. Lunch and dinner always had different foods with options for people with allergies/intolerances, vegetarians, pescatarians and lots of meats to choose from on a daily basis. The grilled meat was really good and the guys serving it were always really nice. Desserts were pretty tasty. The cleaning ladies at the restaurant were incredible as well, we went with kids and they were always talking to them and making sure they were having a good meal with a clean table always.||||The amazing Pedro was fantastic at entertaining every day! We went to the aqua park every morning and he hosted the most fun aqua gym, so much energy people loved it every day. He also would come to the other hotel and host bingo some days and that was a lot of fun too as he gave his own twist to the game. There was also face painting some days but we did not go to that as the kids were in the pool all day so felt it was pointless as it would come off their faces straight away and make a mess of the pool. ||Every night there was a mini disco on the first floor followed by some type of show - the shows were different every day so entertainment would not be the same thing every night as most places.||||The only thing I would say that wasn’t great is the sun beds - not enough of them for the amount of people staying at the hotel, especially at the Gran Garbi Mar where the aqua park is. Plenty of space to put your towel on the floor and lay on it however it was all fake grass and there were so many ants that we felt very uncomfortable so had to make sure we got to the pool first thing once they opened it so we could get the beds and avoid the floor. Also not enough umbrellas by the beds to give you some shade, as a mum of a 3 month old it was a bit annoying if we couldn’t get at least one umbrella to keep the baby in the shade but we managed!||||I would definitely recommend this resort and I would come back when it’s not so busy.||DO NOT believe the nasty reviews on here, some people are just massive moaners who want to go on a cheaper holiday and expect people to be kissing their asses all day long and Michelin star food - if you’re that picky just pay more and go to a better hotel. This isn’t 5 stars and I don’t think it should be however it’s a great family place and if you’re not a miserable person you’re gonna have the best time staying there. :)

Standard resort hotel with prison quality food.
