Hotel Port Vista Oro

"I was honestly quite worried about this hotel after reading some of the reviews before our stay, but I have to say, it really wasn’t as bad as I was expecting. The positives: The location is excellent and really convenient for getting around. The hotel was clean throughout and we had no issues with cleanliness. The drinks were also surprisingly good, with a decent selection and some branded options. The negatives: There is no shower room available for use after checking out, which would have been a really useful facility, especially for late flights. The food is probably the biggest area for improvement. I wouldn’t say it was amazing, but there was always something you could find to eat, so we never went hungry. Overall, I think some of the reviews made me expect much worse than what we actually experienced. It’s not a luxury hotel and there are definitely things that could be improved, but if you go with realistic expectations, it’s perfectly fine for a holiday. The staff are helpful and friendly and they gave us a bottle of fizz on arrival as we were celebrating a birthday. We enjoyed our stay and I’m glad we didn’t let the reviews put us off!"

"Good service. Very attentive and kind, very good cleanliness and the buffet is excellent"

"We spent one night at this hotel at the end of August and the experience had its pros and cons. The positive: • Excellent location: It is very well located, a stone's throw from the shops in the old town and very close to Levante beach. • Customer service: The staff is very friendly, attentive, and helpful at all times. • Quiet atmosphere: Being a small, family-run hotel, it is quite quiet for the time of year. • Gastronomy: The food is average and acceptable for the hotel's category. The negative: • The rooms: We got a room without a view of the pool that faced a wall directly. In addition, it needs renovations (especially to the windows and the terrace) and is short on outlets, as it only had two. • Facilities: The hotel only has one elevator, which can slow down getting around. • Pool and solarium: The orientation of the pool is not ideal: the children's pool only gets sun in the morning, while the adult pool is in the shade almost all day. On the other hand, on the other side of the pool area, the sun hits directly and there are barely any umbrellas for shelter. • Parking: The establishment does not have its own parking. The most convenient option is a parking lot right across the street that costs €25 a day; otherwise, you have to drive around to park in a blue zone."
