Barceló Punta Umbría Mar

This is the second stay at a Barceló hotel and a second excellent stay. We booked and got an excellent sea view room, which was very spacious with a very comfortable super king size bed. The bathroom could be updated but only a very tiny comment. The breakfast had a huge variety of dishes on offer to suit all needs. We normally eat at local restaurants but was we had two bad experiences, we decided to stick with the hotel and again, a very good variety of hot and cold food. Well worth 25€ each. The pool area was well stocked and there were regular checks on those who left the towels on the beds then left for hours on end. As this is mainly Spanish clientele, this was not a major problem. A very quiet and relaxing hotel. A bit too much talking but very carefree and no loutish behaviour. The staff are excellent and that was across the board. The restaurant staff at breakfast and dinner were excellent and I thoroughly recommend the Arrozante restaurant for lunch. It was my partners birthday and not only did he receive a happy birthday email but we arrived back at the room with a delicious birthday cake which could have fed 4. That sums up this hotel where nothing was too much problem. We will definitely come back!

3rd stay was great! Amazing location and a sea view terrace with sunbeds - you cannot beat that (paradise!). Fresh food, beautiful beach. Hotel listened to our feedback from the last year (we had some bad experience) and it was amazing this time. Beds are comfy what is super important as my half and I have bad backs. Will return next year!

Excellent staff, lovely public areas. Rooms comfortable and clean but dated. Restaurant buffet was very good, plenty of options and good quality food.
