Villa del Mar Hotel

A wonderful stay. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable, with lots of hot water and spotlessly clean. All the staff are very happy and friendly. The food served was of a very high standard and we enjoyed every meal. The communal areas were all quiet and relaxed with good facilities, the rooftop bar was our favourite place to chill out with a drink. I would definitely book again!

Location is perfect. From the outside you'll notice no balconies, it looks just like a block of flats. The rooms are clean and tidy, The shower in the bathroom is powerful, nice, but you'll need most of the towels to clear up the water as the shower screen is too short. |The pool is small.|The food is god with something for everyone. Only a handful of polite staff. No welcoming smile or hello from the reception staff. Some of the restaurant staff are rude, no smile, no hello, it's almost as if they don't want to be there and we're an inconvenience, yet there are a handful of lovely restaurant staff who stop and talk and go out of their way to help. Guests are reserving beds by the pool using towels, despite this not being allowed. No welcoming meeting offered (Love Holidays). Drinks token is required for a poolside beaker, never told this. Clean pool use towels available, daily, purchase from reception, again not informed.

Fab hotel…..our second visit to this hotel and it did not disappoint. Staff are still as friendly and helpful as before. Fantastic location right on the beach. Rooms spacious, clean with a comfy bed. Food real good and plentiful. Nice and relaxing spa area as well as a massage room which was amazing by the way. The rooftop bar is just the best with amazing views, delicious tropical mojitos and relaxing comfy sunbeds, perfect for some quiet sunbathing or watching a beautiful sunset. Will be back for a third visit in the near future.

We came to the hotel for a short Monday to Friday holiday. |The rooms were immaculate, and upon arrival, we were informed by the staff that our hotel room had been upgraded to a jacuzzi room with a sea view!|The view from the hotel was beautiful, i would definitely recommend the sea view. |The pool was slightly small, however, it was never incredibly busy, and you were usually able to find a sunbed or at least a chair. |In order to have drinks at the pool bar, you need to get a plastic cup, which costs a €1 each deposit from the reception, which can be given back at the end of the trip. |On each floor, there are water dispensers next to the lifts. |The selection of alcoholic drinks is amazing, branded spirits and Cruzcampo lager as well as a selection of cocktails. These are available at all bars. |The rooftop bar is excellent ,providing good views of the beach and the rest of Benidorm and in the evening they play music. |The selection of food is good, everyday there is a different theme including, Mexcian, Italian and Chinese. |I would definitely recommend this hotel and would look at staying here again.

Fabulous hotel, brilliant location right on the beach and just outside of the old town, which means its pretty quite at night, but is a bit of a walk if you are heading to the other side of the old town and along the beach front with many great bars and restaurants or heading to the infamous main strip!! Taxis from the main strip at the taxi rank cost between €7.50 - €9 back to the hotel depending on amount of passengers. If lucky enough you have a beautiful sea view (lucky ones, like us get a free upgrade) rooms are beautifully clean and fresh, mini bar/fridge, safe (which you do have to pay for which is not a large amount) plenty of cupboard space. Not many plug sockets if you have a few phones and gadgets that need charging daily though. 2 pools, one for the younger children and a slightly larger pool on the 2nd floor. Pool is small and has about 16 sunbeds but is a nice spot and gets incredibly hot during the midday sun. We spent every day on the beach and headed to the pool at the end of the day for a few cheeky cocktails and cooling off in the pool. FYI, sunbeds on the beach are €6 each, umbrellas €6 each, the beach is pretty safe and we had no problems going off and leaving bags with our beds and into the sea!! ....Anyway back to the hotel... Pool bar for drinks and crisps no other snacks. Food in the restaurant is very good and decent quality, lunch and dinner changes daily with a good selection for everyone. Have allergy charts and staff are more than happy to arrange food for specific diets. Staff are amazing and so friendly and polite and will go beyond to help. Have to say a massive thanks to Ety who was brilliant and made our stay so pleasant. He was always happy to help and findout which food was ok for me (yes im one of those with a nut allergy) he was so friendly and polite. I would highly recommend this hotel for couples or families as its ideally located for many bars and restaurants and opposite the beach.

We stayed at this hotel 6 September for 7 nights all inclusive we had a fantastic time. The room we had was sea view, stunning views very modern and very clean and fresh,|The restaurant, the food is excellent always fresh with a massive selection of meats and fish with all the trimmings, you can eat and drink from 7am to midnight all the staff are smiley and happy.|The hotel position makes it quiet but with the beach across the road and the old town just round the corner it makes it perfectly positioned.|Hotel entertainment is great.it is a little gem the only criticism I have is the lifts are slow

Food and drinks were lovely - themed days for food. Sangria and mojitos on tap which were lovely. Staff welcoming and Hotel kept clean. Room was adequate but bit too small for a family of 4. Pool was small and therefore we were unable to use it for any of the week we were there. Level 9 bar chill out bar was lovely but lacking in shade - the only seats in the shade were not comfortable for longer than 1 hour. 2 lifts to accommodate the whole 8 floors of rooms was not adequate and often waiting for lifts for 5 to 10 minutes. However wonderful sea views and access to the beach within 2 min walk.

I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at Villa del Mar Hotel. The cleanliness of the property and the friendliness of the staff really stood out, and for the price I paid, the value was excellent. While the pool area was a bit on the smaller side and there weren’t many sun loungers, the rooftop bar provided a great spot to unwind, and having the beach just steps away made up for it. The food wasn’t anything spectacular, but considering it was an all-inclusive buffet, it was perfectly adequate. Overall, I had a really enjoyable stay and would happily return if I visit Benidorm again.
