The staff treated us like family. This is a hidden gem with gorgeous views and easy dining/cafe. It's located on the beach with a beautiful walkway. Great AC and hot water.

Lovely small hotel, it is in a perfect location and the views are amazing.The staff were friendly and professional. We have a property in Mar De Crystal and needed more space with family visiting. We will definitely recommend to our friends and will also visit again

Perfect stop for some RnR. Loved the private deck overlooking the water. The fully stocked kitchen in our suite was a nice touch. Parking was free and within steps of the front entrance. We definitely will return.

Wonderful stay at Mar de Cristal

Whole experience from booking to checkout was perfect. We arrived late but were provided with a code to obtain our key to the room. Room was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Outside solarium was wonderful but some maintenance need to the deck floor, which was a bit uneven. Staff were very friendly and we would definitely stay here again.

Even though it was out of season dining options were very limited. The area is lovely and very tranquil. Ran out of hot water before finishing shower.

Réception shuts at 5.30 so need to arrange later arrivals. Large modern room with kitchenette and modern shower room. No safe in room. No tea/coffee provided. Comfortable bed. Limited housekeeping. Very limited dining in vicinity.

10/10 Exceptional

A Secret indeed!!

From start to finish - excellent! We asked for an early check in if possible, as we were meeting friends... no problem providing no other guest in room. Got there and they were cleaning room, we could sit in reception 30 mins or leave our belongings - 30 min was no problem as we were early. Lovely welcome from receptionnist, showed us our room etc. Went out came back and then walked the 30ft to the beach, then back to Arena Bar for tapas & sundowners. Having the kitchenette was an added bonus especially for that early cup of tea in the morning. Great position, spotlessly clean, brilliant air con, huge shower, lovely staff, would definitely stay again and have already recommended. Not a lot going on around but that suited us fir a little 2 night get away.
Maureen, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible experience

October, business trip, low season looking for a good place to have rest.The site did not tell me about a great concert in the lounge bar of the apartments, and the room assigned was just above the bar. 2:30am and I was still awake. Apart from that, there was a lot of humidity and the apartment, the mattress, the bed, the sheets, everything smelled of moisture. The apartment is much older than what appears in the photos.

We had an amazing stay. The location of the apartment was excellent with an amazing view. The apartment was well equipped although some of the fixtures and fittings were tired and could do with replacing eg coffee table shelving units. Decking on terrace bit wobbly and some.furniture broken.

2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Wir waren für 3 Nächte an diesem wunderschönen Ort. Direkt am Strand. Das ist ein absoluter Pluspunkt. Das Personal ist mega nett und freundlich. Das Zimmer ist zweckmäßig. Ausstattung ist schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen,aber es ist alles da,was man braucht. Inklusive kleiner Küchenzeile,die man auch braucht,da es kein Frühstück gibt. Dafür ist die Lage unbezahlbar und der Preis dafür mehr als fair. Insgesamt waren wir sehr zufrieden und würden das Hotel weiterempfehlen. Danke für die schönen Tage!
