파라도르 데 엘 살레르

Well maintained grounds. Beach a short walk away. Very quiet. The pool area was a bit dated and wish they had more areas to do work; while my husband golfed, I ended up staying in the room to work as that was the most comfortable space. I would've preferred to work outside the room but the seating wasn't the best and there weren't a lot of outlets. The hotel did not seem updated for this remote work era we find ourselves. The breakfast buffet was enjoyable. Delicious paella (though you have to order for two, which was a bummer). Wish there were more vegan options for my husband. The staff was friendly and helpful, from check in to dining. We especially enjoyed our servers Rosario and her daughter Luciana, who were delightful to chat with. Appreciated the size of the room, with a seating area, good storage, big shower, and a balcony. The bed was uncomfortable though, from the pillows to the mattress; expect higher quality at a hotel like this. Very clean. We were told a cab would take about 25 minutes to arrive; we waited for an hour. Luckily we weren't trying to catch a train or plane! I don't fault the hotel for the wait but it was stressful and not very fun. If you're trying to get back to Valencia, pad in some extra time. The cigarette vending machine made me laugh (not in a good way). Wasn't a fan of smoking being allowed but that was all over Spain, not just here. I don't think I'd want to stay for more than a few days (compared to Hotel Camiral, another golf resort we stayed at just before here, where I could've stayed forever). Overall, a good experience for a short stay.

Everything was from very good to excellent but there was 1 very disturbing experience. Every night we had to kill a lot of mosquito's otherwise my wife couldn't sleep. Unfortunately that was only partly successful.
