Almarena Puerto Retiro Affiliated by Melia

Honestly I loved everything about this place! I’m a big fan of the Hilton’s, but honestly the room here beat that! The room was beautiful, with cooking hobs, pots and pans, microwave, toaster, fridge, mini bar, smart TV, balcony, 2 or 3 tables, a sofa, 4 chairs and a bed bigger than my future! The room was so amazing that it could actually cause “cabin fever” as we once stayed a full 24 hours in the room without leaving because it was so cosy! The whole place is huge and has everything, e.g. a complete fitness centre and even a Pilates studio, 2 x pools, sauna, steam rooms, massage room and beautiful toilets in the spa. Just walking down the corridor makes you feel that you are really staying in a beautiful hotel that changes your mood and makes you feel happy. They provided free breakfast aswell and the maids were so lovely! It is honestly the sort of hotel that in the future I can imagine would have shows on a beautiful bar and restaurant that people, because it’s so big with great facilities everywhere. Also the price is amazing and there is no plot twist, they charge you in pesos and not USD, so it is actually the price that booking.com says and not double!

The property is new. Everything is in excellent condition. It's right next to the cruise terminal. We stayed there for a night before our cruise. Brought with us something to cook our dinner.

The room design and the pools

NEW! Spacious room with fantastic view of the port. Kitchen supplied with everything I needed. Staff is enthusiastic to help. Extensive fitness facility with sauna, indoor and outdoor pool, Pilates studio and gym. Location a 10 to 20 minute Uber from all the sites.

The property is close to the cruise terminal, easily walkable even with luggage. The staff were particularly helpful and the room was nice, well kept, and of good size.
