DB San Antonio
A really good vibe and atmosphere. Hotel staff were polite, helpful and friendly. The rooms were excellent and very clean. Great value for money on the all inclusive. Entertainment was great and located well for local shops, bars and resturants.
Review by Zapps1962 Norwich, United Kingdom
Good Hotel. Pool area not big enough.
We stayed here in August and, on the whole, had a good time.
The positives
The food is very good. I am gluten intolerant, and I was catered for at every single meal. The hotel is spotless, and the entertainment is also very good. I felt the drinks were of a good quality, and the kids’ club staff were fantastic.
The not-so-good
The pool area has been mentioned a lot on here, but it’s simply not big enough. There are far too many people here for the size of the pool area. I’m not sure who on earth thinks it’s a good idea to open this hotel up to the outside when you can barely move as it is.
Every single sunbed is touching the next one. You cannot move without climbing over someone. In the pool, it’s just bodies everywhere.
The adults-only area on the roof is a nice touch, but again, over the weekend, you couldn’t move up there.
The entertainment team are good, but I felt that nearly all the entertainment was aimed at adults. Grown men playing darts and then belly-flopping into the pool. It’s a family hotel, but you could be tricked into thinking it was an 18–30s hotel.
The rooms, I felt, were fine. They were nice and clean, with plenty of space. The corridor carpet is very worn and old, but it was clean.
It’s a shame because everything else about this hotel is really good, but I couldn’t come back because of the pool area.
I wish I could have given it 5 stars.
Great week here - lots to do.
Stayed in room 776. Great week here. Pools clean. Lots of subbed. Roof terrace and pool a real treat. Staff so attentive. Good good. Chinese particularly nice food. Crispy duck.
San Antonio, Asian restaurant. Top!!!
