MYND Yaiza

"We had a brilliant stay at Mynd Yaiza. It was located close to the beach (10 minutes to Playa Dorada and 15/20 minutes to Playa Blanca). Both sandy beaches within walking distance. The hotel benefits from two distinct zones with different atmospheres: one targeted towards families with children where there are slides, a splash park and pools to enjoy, the other a quieter more relaxing area with two pools and quieter lounge music for people to relax in. Our room was located in the quieter relax zone (as requested) which was perfect for us. It had a large comfortable bed, good quality shower and ample wardrobe and storage space. The bathroom area was divided by frosted glass doors which didn’t completely reach the floor/ceiling so felt more exposed than a separate room. We chose the half board option which meant breakfast was included and then we were given a €30 credit each per day which could be used across any of the food and drink facilities in the hotel. Our credit was loaded to an online wallet where we could track spending and the remaining balance as we could choose to spread our spending how we like during our stay (so didn’t have to strictly use €30 per day). We therefore used some of our credit on drinks and snacks if we wanted to experience dinner outside of the hotel. We visited all of the bars and restaurants available during our stay and received excellent service from all staff in the hotel. There are different food options available such as buffet, à la carte restaurant Lamesa (which we would highly recommend) and snack bar. There is also the lobby and pool bar available for drinks which can be enjoyed there or taken to the pool. We were able to communicate clearly with staff as their English was excellent. We found the hotel to be clean and they offered an optional conscious cleaning programme where our room was cleaned every other day in exchange for free drinks vouchers. Overall we would highly recommend Mynd Yaiza as we had an excellent stay and enjoyed everything on offer."

"A family of three , daughter age 11. Stay for 9 nights , Accommodation- standard triple room is small but adequate for our needs, loved the outdoor space had a large terrace with table and chairs, a large bed. Minor issue of the room shower door did not close properly, and more coat hangers, Stayed in room 1409. The view was not great it was overlooking a car park . It would have been nice to put some decorative over fence so you don’t see the car park . Food is okay we went half board, always found something to eat, and the flexible wallet system suited us . But just check the wallet system daily as we got over charged as they thought my daughter was older, but we got refunded on the money that they took within 24 hours as we spoke to the supervisor of the restaurant . Ala carte you need to pre book food was nice . The hotel grounds spotless and very nice . Swimming pools nice. Evening entertainment- was slightly hit and miss depending on the singer. Hotel is very quiet and it’s mixed with families and couples, Staff appeared very friendly and helpful. If you have an evening flight back , they charge 35 euros up to 3pm if you need to keep the room on longer it’s additional 10 euros per an hour , but you need to do this 24 hours prior. The hotel is not too far from the beach / and other restaurants/ shops, roughly 10 minutes. Overall we had a pleasant stay ."

"Just returned from 10 days at MYND B&B. Mixed experience… Hotel location is good. Walking distance to both resort centre and marina (we preferred resort centre). Kids loved the pool and the two slides although small kept them well entertained. Grounds are very pretty and well maintained. Overall hotel feels more like a 3 star than 4. The suite we booked for the four of us was snug, with a small rather uncomfortable double sofa bed for our two children. The water stations were nearly always out of service during our stay which was frustrating when you’re expecting to be able to use them. Breakfast was adequate. Found there was nearly always a long queue for the pool bar, and difficult to get sun loungers near the main kids pool unless you reserve loungers early in the morning."
