Suites del Mar by Melia

The hotel exterior and entrance is looking very tired. The awful fragrance being used makes it smell like a care home! The rooms though are fabulous inside with the only issue was having very little hot water for our showers. Do try the Spa it is absolutely beautiful and a bargain at 25 euros each. You must pre book though. It’s a perfect location for exploring Alicante We have stayed here before and will stay again just don’t let the exterior put you off.

Lovely location, very comfortable spacious suite

Excellent oceanfront room.

Externally the building is a little dated, but it's lovely inside and in a great position to walk into the old town, marina, shops, Promenade and beach. Definitely would recommend

We loved the hotel and location. Sauna was out of order for couple of days which was a shame and for the last 3 days they didn’t provide us with fresh towels in the afternoon which was a bit disappointing but we enjoyed our stay. Pool area isn’t big enough for the hotel so summer time probably will be a problem to get a place as it does get busy. We thought it’s was adults only hotel but it’s not the case. Pool isn’t not big enough for children to have fun. Also pool is not heated and most of people didn’t bother some days water felt like it was topped up with ice but it’s march. Gym is really small as well but as I said we enjoyed it anyway.

Was disappointed that the heating in our room didn’t work and after complaining it took over 1 hour 30 mins to get it partially resolved then after 2 hours fully resolved but only stayed one so most of the afternoon in the room wasted . Breakfast not up to the usual standard also

2nd stay here, although the exterior of the building looks dated and shabby, the rooms are excellent, breakfast is lovely, private pool for suites is great. Pool temperature is cold could do with turning on the heat. Staff are very helpful. Plenty of good transport. Taxi to and from the airport is 25 euros each way so don’t get a private transfer. Ryanair wanted 117 euros!! Will return again next year.

Wonderful staff and the views were amazing. I’m just sorry we stood only 1 night.

Good hotel, Ana at reception was amazingly helpfully

Great location Stunning bedroom suite Fabulous views
