Stayed for three nights with 8 year old, great pool, always had a sun lounger no matter what time of day we went to the pool. Had lots of kid entertainment like play station, pool, table tennis, racing machines. Close to the main strip.

Mrs G Taylor, Birmingham

The cleanliness was perfect, the staff were lovely and friendly, food was average but always different. The only thing that was disappointing was the lack of entertainment at hotel.

Mr I Slaney, Uttoxeter

Basic hotel, very clean, very good food and excellent staff. Would recommend for price.

Miss T Paterson, Larbert

Showers were attached by hair ties and then fell so had to use shower like a hose. Food was repetitive with little choice. Sun loungers were old and worn that they dipped down. No drinks menu so didn't know what I could have. No hairdryer in room, had to go and ask reception to borrow one. Had to pay €10 deposit for tv remote.

Mrs K Smith, Cradley Heath

Mr G Mccann, Armagh

Entertainment very poor to non existent. Out of our 7 night stay, we had 1 night karaoke and the other night a Spanish singer and dancer. Waste of money going all inclusive with kids, as we had to go to 2 nearby pubs at night time which were fully in tune with the needs of parents and kids together. As not everyone staying at the hotel was all inclusive, I felt while ordering at the bar, you were 2nd preference to those who were not all inclusive and especially Spanish speaking. I know you don't normally get proper beer glasses on all inclusive, but in previous places we stayed, we got hard plastic tumblers to drink out of. But this place, you got your beer in the wee clear plastic cups that you would see at a water dispenser in a bookies.

Had I read the reviews instead of letting the wife book this hotel, we would not be here for sure. While at the resort I looked through some reviews and they were absolutely right. One woman complained about no shower holder fixings, which is true and still not fixed. Our room was the same so it must be every room. Another person complained about the paper thin walls dividing the hotel rooms. So true, you could hear every whisper from next door, especially the bathroom. Don't be rushing down for breakfast, its the pits. Unless you like coffee and toast, you can't go wrong If you were a young person looking to spend all day at the beach and hit the bars at night and looking somewhere cheap to put your head down, you could do worse than here. 5 minutes walk to beach and bars.

Mrs J Lawrence, Nottingham

The Santa Monica Playa is absolutely brilliant, just what we wanted. The hotel is smart inside and out, the bar is great, the pool and poolside is so relaxing, no fighting for beds. The rooms are big enough with a nice bathroom, they are cleaned everyday by the lovely cleaning ladies. The restaurant is great and so are the staff, I have fussy children and they loved the food good choice and quality! Great all round really, thank you Santa Monica for a great stay and thank you Sunshine team!

Miss P Oates, Birmingham

Every thing was good, expect the entertainment.

Mr S Watkins, Gloucester

Fantastic holiday. Meals were lovely and varied. All staff were always helpful. Was only minutes from shops and beach.

Only issues are we went all inclusive so everything and I mean everything came in a plastic Pepsi cup even a cup of tea. No cocktails in all inclusive drinks. Had to pay for ice creams and crisps. Out side bar never opened in the ten days we were there.

Mr P Allen, Mansfield

Staff at the hotel were very friendly throughout and very helpful. It was exceptionally clean, the rooms were basic but had all you needed for a short stay. Just bear in mind there was no kettle or fridge. Free internet was really useful and fast, this was available in all common areas and some rooms.

The location was good, near the main drag and beach but could be noisy at night especially the swimming pool side. My in flight earplugs sorted that one. Food was plentiful, snacks or meals all day. Always plenty to eat and a good variety. Breakfasts were the best. Just bear in mind it's a 3 star not a 5 star. The drink is in Pepsi or plastic disposable cups but a huge range of cocktails available and they are not shy with the measures. We would definitely stay for a short break again.
