Guayarmina Princess

Spent a week here on an all inclusive package (not platinum) based on the first floor right on the beach front. The room was immaculate but the restaurant/bar outside the hotel plays really loud music from 7-11pm (but not on Sunday and Monday so we got a break). Personally I struggled to get a decent nights sleep because the twin beds pushed together and the mattresses are very soft so it was difficult to get comfortable. Eventually we just flipped the bed around and sleeping was a lot better. We ate in the food market most nights. The service was quick, the food was delicious but it was very much the same each night so got a little bit repetitive. We were entitled to one night meal in the roast restaurant and despite the food being nice on the main menu we waited for a long time to get served or checked on so didn't end up staying too long and had our main and left. The sun bed booking system is great, we never had to worry about not finding a bed for the lazier days. If you are not too bothered about the pool I recommend the sunset area. Very quiet and chill and a bar with snacks right next to the loungers. The night entertainment was good. The rock music was the best night for atmosphere as the other entertainers kind of played the same music every night but still entertaining. We really wanted to try the spa but couldn't justify the prices for treatments and length of time that you get in the facility itself. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and think the hotel is great and we would recommend it to any one looking for a luxury style hotel on the beach front.

Really good experience, the staff are so helpful and really wanted to make us welcome. The location was really good as it’s next to the beach and lots of shops near by. Only one downside was our room was a direct view of the sea that was amazing but came at the cost of the restaurant/bar in front of it plays music until midnight and the room doesn’t block the noise. It’s not the hotels fault but just it’s worth knowing.

Whilst a nice looking hotel with an extensive and impressive lobby, the customer service is non existent and facilities are made for fair weather. Very few smiles from any staff members and an overall feeling from them of ‘just getting it done’ rather than attentive service for a four star hotel. A good hotel if you’re looking for hotel entertainment but loud at night time until 11pm+, with some noise audible from the rooms above the bar. Whilst we stayed, our balcony flooded our room (see video) and on the first night as the rain wasn’t sustained, we called reception and the cleaning team (who were excellent throughout) mopped it all up and put towels in place. The next night, it was torrential rain and after two hours of this, the hotel called and sent up more towels which wasn’t enough this time. In essence, the balcony leant inwards which meant that the doors allowed water through them and into the room, rather than to soak away. Poor design and so my husband went down to ask for another room. No apology from the staff or concern as water was literally through the room and into the en-suite at this point, but after some discussion we were moved rooms to a sea view which was better and no leaks. The hotel is designed for pretty pictures and isn’t water tight for rain. From my pictures you can see that leaks were the case throughout the hotel. Three lifts were out of service for the duration of our stay, which was a pain for us but would have made it difficult to access for those in a wheelchair. Overall, an okay stay but not the service or friendliness I’ve usually had any other 4* hotels which felt like a bit of a disappointment. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel and would have preferred to stay in the nicer area of La Caleta.

Lovely hotel in a prime location. Food very good with extensive choice of dishes. Reception staff are so friendly and helpful. The room was cleaned well daily & bed changed on request. The sun bed booking system is great & easy to use. My only criticism is that the bath & hand towels need replacing as these were extremely thin from use.
