Oceana Hotel & Spa

"I was in this hotel from September 27 to October 7, 2026. The hotel is wonderful, everything is very close, the beach is big. The hotel's territory is compact, but very beautiful. Numbers are free. Better take one with a view of the pool and partially of the sea. The staff is very polite and the attitude is friendly. There are very few of our compatriots, mostly Germans and French. The hotel is very quiet - for a secluded vacation. Many pensioners. I will definitely come back here!"

"After reading the negative reviews, we were a little apprehensive about staying at Oceana Hotel & Spa, although it was clear when researching the reviews that many appeared to be 'bots' or fake accounts. Anyway, our stay here exceeded our expectations. The hotel was clean and staff were approachable and happy to help. Our room was spacious and cleaned every day. Food in the buffet was excellent with fresh cooked meats and fish alongside a variety of other local & international dishes. Service was always friendly and out glasses were always topped up. Pool was clean and there were always plenty of beds available. Poolside bar service was excellent. We stayed at the hotel and did not venture out on any excursions but we did walk to nearby Medinas along the beach in either direction where you can visit local restaurants, bars, markets and tourist shops. We had a very enjoyable week here and the weather was perfect in September. We would certainly consider returning to this hotel and we'd encourage others to ignore the negative reviews."

"The vacation at the Oceana was very mixed. First, the positive aspects: +the rooms are really very beautiful, every room also has a balcony, the view is always great despite the garden view +the entire complex is spacious, super well-maintained, many beautiful palm trees and flowers, and the pools as well as the beach are truly beautiful; one could also take very good photos. +The beach security is very nice and helpful; we were almost ripped off by a man with a camel named Christiano, but the security guard intervened and negotiated the price down for us and also offered his help for the future, which we found really very, very sweet. +It is really veeeery quiet here; one can relax very well; it is really designed for relaxation and quiet, in contrast to the neighboring hotels. Now the negative aspects: -It feels like no one in the hotel talks to each other; everyone has different information; no one really knows what is going on: For example, you only get what you ordered (drinks, food) with luck, or we were told a day before that we could easily eat at the Seaside Restaurant until 10 PM without a reservation, but the next day the kitchen was suddenly already closed at 6:30 PM because that was decided in a meeting the day before?? Where is the communication with the guests, please? -Food is relatively monotonous at the buffet; we could not try A la carte, as we unfortunately only tried to reserve on the 2nd day after arrival (it was unfortunately fully booked due to the capacity of only 30 seats?). It must be said that we were careful about what we ate, but we both got a stomach bug anyway. This is not a criticism of the hotel directly; one should just keep in mind to bring medication. -The balcony has a door that only opens and closes from the inside. Was it stupid that my partner closed the door from the outside because of mosquitoes? Yes, definitely. But it cannot be that we locked ourselves out and he then had to jump down from the 1st floor so that someone could unlock it for us again. At a 5-star hotel, one could definitely think about that, perhaps also have security or someone walk through the hotel grounds more often in the evening. -A minor point of criticism: the water in the shower runs with very little pressure and also does not get really warm. That is probably also due to the age of the interior furnishings. Furthermore, did I have to duck? Despite being 1.64m tall, to wash my hair because the hose was not long enough. -Evening entertainment is not very abundant, except for live music for an hour on a few evenings. The older gentleman at the piano on Sunday evening was our highlight; that was really very beautiful. There could be more of that. Conclusion: A hotel with a lot of potential; it should be completely renovated, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in service and organization. Definitely not enough for a 5-star hotel."
