Blue Sea Costa Jardin & Spa

"Nice Hotel, but now very dated in the internal appearance of the fabric. Staff were excellent, and the catering good, especially considering the numbers being catered for. The best side of the hotel faces the mountain and the pools. The other side faces a somewhat barren ‘garden’, and suffers from the noise of the ‘bin and waste’ collections from the Kitchen. Of our 7 nights, after 3 nights, we checked-out, in favour of staying on the south side of this lovely Island, where the weather was considerably better. The hotel states in 4 star, but in our opinion, it’s a 3 star. Again, no reflection on the staff, but this place needs updating for sure."

"Very dated, rooms very basic and only one single plug socket in the room. Outdoor pool freezing (to be expected in January) but usually we would use the indoor pool.. not possible here as the indoor pool (part of the ‘spa’) cost an extra €18 per person per visit. Totally not worth it. I think the intended vibe was rock formations but the reality was the delivery of hardcore to number 22 for their new patio at best… and the site of a major terror attack at worst. One plant to soften the view, the miraculous combination smell of both mould and bleach. No aromatherapy ambiance or subtle lighting, just overhead harsh lighting panels like one might find in a small stationery firm’s office in Basildon. Breakfast was passable, offering mediocre meats, fruit and ‘under a heat lamp’ processed meats and cold beans. Housekeeping staff were friendly and efficient. The tennis court and crazy golf onsite (payable extras) were reminiscent of the opening credits of a horror film. If you hire a car, parking onsite is extortionate (we overheard another guest complain). In short, we booked a ‘hotel and spa, set in botanical gardens’, what we got was a poor, tired, very dated hotel, paying extra for the spa and extra for entry to the gardens."

"Staff are rude. We Sat in the foyer with a bottle of wine and told the sound from phones was to loud at11pm Lights get turned off to make sure you leave, especially the bar and dining area. Would not recommend."
