The only issue was checking out at 10am but not being able to use the pool or any of the facilities onsite. We were able to leave our bags and suitcases at reception, and we could also use the shower facilities and changing rooms - but they close at 7pm

We were informed that cleaning was not included in the price, and we also had to pay extra for fresh towels, which was disappointing. That said, the apartment itself was nice, spacious, and comfortable. Having a fully equipped kitchen was a big plus and made our stay much more convenient. There were no beach views from the apartment, but the beach itself was beautiful and within easy reach.

We have returned here 3 times in the past 12 months. The staff (in every department), resort, links to transport, friendliness of other residents (and owners) you cannot beat coming here. Already planning my next stay. This resort is for the young and elderly with accessibility for prams, mobility scooters thanks to a lot of input from my Dad, the memorial bench is beautiful and a perfect addition to the stunning grounds! The whole team go above and beyond even in the restaurants and in the strips at the top of the resort too. This place is our second home 🥰🇪🇸✈️

Very good stay. Very clean rooms, slightly dated, but fully functional none the less. Highly recommended for a quiet off-peak long week away.

Clean room, nice view, friendly staff, noisy tables and doors that can wake you early (due to scraping on stucco/cement floor). Grounds are beautiful and food is quite good as well. Pool area is clean. I would come back.

Great location, easy reach to the boardwalk, beach, chiringuito, bars and restaurants. Check-in process has too many rules and is too late (5pm) unless you pay extra. Room had everything you could need. We were in Sofia and enjoyed a sea view. Could benefit from a throw for those colder mornings / evenings. Rooms need better soundproofing, especially for the busier months.

The Dona Lola complex is perfect for your family vacation, they look after you from day 1 until the end of your trip. The staff are amazing, facilities are great and the beach, restaurants and shops are local. My only issue on this trip was the apartment was very small compared to last 7 years of us going and the smell wasn't great. This could easily be forgiven after 7 years of faultless trips. We are back in July 2026 for our family vacation.
