This hotel is AMAZING! We have been here 3 times already and we love it! It is so clean and family-friendly, the food is amazing, etc. We loved that spa, service, and accessibility to the beach. There is nothing that we can name that we did not like.

If you like lots and lots of screaming kids crying everywhere, this is the hotel for you. There is no peace. The room and the place is nice but the amount of people and quality of those people is very hard to bear. Awful music blasting at the pool. I was not happy here.

Another great little break at Costa Ballena. Despite the long queues at check in, the staff worked through the lines promptly. Food at the buffet was ok, has been better in the past, same with the pool restaurant. There was plenty of entertainment for the kids during the day and in the evening which was appreciated. Grounds and pool were clean at all times. Don't understand why small inflatables are not allowed in the main pool. I understand big ones, but small rubber rings should be considered in my opinion. Thank you for a nice few days (think its our fourth visit), will come again soon!

The rooms were very spacious and clean, the facilities were great for kids. The food quality could be better, especially with the variety towards vegeterians and pesceterians, as there were a lot of ham and other red meat with very litte choice of seafood

Property is family friendly, staff very helpful. Common spaces Very spacious and clean. Childrens pool and play area is perfect for kids, beach is easily accessible and location feels isolated from outside distractions. Rooms and clean, beds a little more firm than Im ised to but well presented when you enter to find the robes on the bed.

Somewhat of a last minute family break. Reviews looked good so decided to give it a go. The hotel was modern, clean and spacious. Although very busy due to space it never felt too crowded. Room was clean, spacious and we had room on ground floor with pool straight outside which was a very nice surprise/addition we weren’t expecting. The food & drink was of a good standard. Restaurant offered a very wide range of different food on the buffet. The only negative was the restaurant staff were super busy so at times cleaninless of eating areas and table setup & service was not to required standard. Some of the staff were a little rude at times also when you approached or asked them for something. I get they were busy but as a paying customer that’s not my problem. The hotel is also very close to the beach. The beach is superb! Overall a very good hotel which I’d recommend. One on our list to visit again when less busy.
