"We stayed at Atlantica Oasis for a week in the middle of August 2026.
We are used to travelling to Turkey and Egypt, in 4-5 star resorts multiple times a year, so it’s worth saying that perhaps we are a bit spoilt because those countries tend to do things on a luxury scale.
When we arrived, we had the feeling that this was one of the hotels we’d usually pass on the way to our hotel, not somewhere we’d usually pick. It’s built up around it with some construction work going on, there’s a pub across the road, and the complex is small, with the buildings tall. Nevertheless, we knew all of this when we booked, so in we went.
There were no welcome drinks. There were no staff members to help with our bags. In fact it was all kind of low key compared to what we’re used to. We got put into a lift and had to find our room ourselves.
Inevitably, the room was basically three feet from the lift, so no issues there. Also, worth noting that the lift was tiny. Like three people tiny. Again, not an issue because there were three of us but it’s worth noting.
Our room was a family room, so had a bunk bed in the main living area, separate double bedroom and a bathroom between. The room overall is spacious, but the bathroom is tiny. Tiny tiny. Like the toilet is angled otherwise you couldn’t close the door, and the bath is 4ft long. The bathroom is really the downside here though because as I said the room is spacious and nice to be in.
Air conditioning was locked though the temperature was nice. Being on the 5tg floor I’d expect the windows to be locked or have fall prevention, but they don’t, so be aware.
The pools are adequate. Very warm in the outdoor main pool, cold in the inside pool (which is very loud when kids are about). The adult only pool looked tranquil, but that will forever be a pipe dream for us with a child.
Water polo is scheduled every day and is separate for kids and adults.
Something I’ve noticed is that the staff in general aren’t as happy as they are in turkey or Egypt, where everyone is keen to help. I don’t know if it’s cultural, but the staff here - pool staff mainly - seem like they’d rather be anywhere else. The entertainment team are great, with Cris being exceptionally good at what he does.
The evening entertainment is bingo - with a cash prize, which was always fun - followed by a show put on by the entertainment team. Generally the show is mid-tier but they’re doing the best they can. Perhaps the hotel could contract in some additional entertainment shows in future.
The food. The food is amazing. Probably the best hotel food we’ve had to date. The buffet looks standard, but tastes great, from breakfast - where the baked beans are as good as home - to the evening with curries, local and a selection of world foods. Everything has been top notch. We also ate in the à la carte, which was also pretty amazing.
The seafront is a few roads away, but we hired a car. We travelled to the old town and latchi which are both recommended. There is parking on site at a first come first served basis, but we didn’t have a problem parking.
The gym is very well equipped, with every trying you need to get a good workout - aged dumbbells up to 40kg were a plus - but there are no towels available and it’s filthy. I mean wipe the floor or mats and the tissue is black filthy. With a good clean it would be ideal.
All in all this hotel raised itself above our first impressions, but remains somewhere we probably wouldn’t come back to. If you’re looking for a relatively cheap 4-star, which is probably on the low end of 4-star, then this place may do you well."
