Caleta de Caballo Vacations from AED3,168

Very enjoyable stay at the Hipotel Playa Blanca.Having stayed at this facility many times the hotel does not dissapoint.I did think that in certain areas the hotel could benefit from a refresh

Truly a wonderful place to stay! Staff cannot do enough, rooms are so clean & spacious, food is plentiful and delicious! Stones throw from harbour and seafront walk to sandy beaches and azure blue sea - what more could you want!!

Staff very friendly, rooms very big and regularly serviced. Only food option is the buffet which was plentiful & fresh. Our week had some strong winds which was a challenge but as the hotel is built around the pools the wind was lessened somewhat. The aquapark is a 20min walk away and our boys, 15 & 13, thoroughly enjoyed it. We limited it to a half day ticket which was more than enough. To get to costa teguise you can walk along the roads and it takes between 20-30mins or you can walk directly down to the coastal path, using the side roads or the paths in the black volcanic gardens just opposite the hotel. Bit blustery but very enjoyable.

My friends & I came for a relaxing break just to spend time with each other, decompress & relieve stress. We were able to do that here because the ambiance allows for it. All the neutral tones provide that calming feeling you'd want. The crowd is more...mature. Many were the basic European couple or family & it looked like they were of retirement age. As an observation, there weren't very many of us mixed variety guest in the 30's range aside from us & a speckle of others. However, we weren't going for a party scene & we had each other so it wasn't a big deal. Many nights they had a live band & the Entertainment Coordinator was great at hyping up the crowd to dance & enjoy the vibes. There are three restaurants that require reservations so make those in advance if you can. Also be mindful that La Graciosa has a tasting menu for dinner. The all you can eat had a pretty decent turnover of new food being replaced when it first opens but when they're about to close thats when you see the dregs of what's left. If I had to complain about that it would be some of the meats could be a bit more seasoned (more of a preference issue) & I would have wished they had longer time slots for each meal session instead of feeling rushed. I knocked off a star for the service is because: 1) we were not provided the rooms we requested but they tried to compensate by giving us access to both rooms. 2) We didn't get quality CS from Rafael at the Shack. I had to go request for it. We'd return though

2nd stay at hotel and as enjoyable as the first. Would highly recommend!!
