Grand Hotel Continental

Reception and breakfast staff very friendly and helpful. We paid extra for an upgrade expecting a balcony with chairs and a table but got what I can only describe as standing room only room 301. Big room but again needed a twin room and got two beds pushed together and a child’s bed. Mini fridge was not replenished daily, air con worked great but felt the shower was on the small side. Swimming pool was great and no scrambling for sunbeds. Bring your own towel and if you like tea or coffee in room bring a travel kettle you can get milk etc from Conrad’s about a 2 or 3 min walk. The other thing that we did not have in the room was a welcome pack telling you about the times of restaurants, food menus etc this would be helpful. Wi-Fi was good after the first couple of days as there was a telephone fault so not working and we had to ask reception for the password. Bus timetable’s are available at reception just ask. The female receptionist was very helpful and arranged our taxi back to the airport.

The hotel has an excellent location with direct access to a beautiful beach and stunning sea views. The swimming pool is very large, clean, and well maintained. The room size was comfortable—not too small, though not particularly spacious. The sea-view rooms offer a fantastic view. Breakfast was varied, delicious, and satisfying. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. On the downside, the hotel feels outdated and would benefit from renovation and modernization. Parking is available in a nearby public parking area for €6 per day (subject to availability), which is a good option. The hotel's private covered parking is convenient but quite expensive at €30 per day.

Overall, our stay was disappointing. The location is definitely the hotel's biggest advantage, as it is convenient and beautiful. However, many aspects of the property need significant improvement. The cleanliness was inconsistent. Some areas were clean, while others clearly needed more attention. The furniture is outdated and should be replaced. The swimming pool and several of its facilities are rusty, which gives the impression of poor maintenance. The food was acceptable, but the variety was limited, especially for vegans and vegetarians. Finding suitable meal options was difficult. The coffee was also of very poor quality. The biggest issue was the bed. The mattress was incredibly hard—almost as hard as the floor—making it very difficult to get a good night's sleep. With better maintenance, updated furniture, improved food options, and more comfortable mattresses, this hotel could offer a much better experience. Unfortunately, in its current condition, I would not choose to stay here again. Staff is very frendly and helpful but overall i find it very pricy for what they offer!

10/10!! beautiful hotel, friendly staff and our favourite holiday location yet! the whole holiday felt unbelievable everybody was so friendly including the locals and everywhere you looked was beautiful. situated close to the beach, yummy restaurants, shops, bars and sunset views i’d recommend this hotel to everybody just wow. definitely will be visiting again! arrivederci🫶🏼
