Club Hotel Aguamarina

We stayed for a week in Oct 24 half term, with our two children, 11 and 6yrs. We had realistic expectations, after reading the previous reviews, and for the price we paid, and we were not disappointed. For us, this was a cheap all inclusive family week in the October sun, with pool and beach, and it was great. The facilities for the kids are great. Very nice park, bouncy castle area, kids club, and pools. All clean and well maintained. Location was amazing. The bay is beautiful. Just a 2 minute walk down the path from the hotel to a stunning bay. We hired paddle boards and a pedalo at the beach, and the water is so clear and calm, it was great. Also lots of fish to see, when we went snorkelling. Entertainment Team we’re great with the kids, and always something fun for them to do. We had a room with a double bed and bunk beds. Wasn’t the biggest, but was as expected, and we only slept and showered/changed in there. Cleaners came everyday, made up beds, swept and mopped floor and fresh towels. We took our own pillows, after reading the previous reviews, but the pillows there were actually fine. Food was standard for all inclusive. Lots of choice. Good salads, fresh fruit, something different on the grill each day, and good paella available every day. Burger bar by the pool (standard), and a pizza place which was good. All of the staff were friendly and professional. Overall, a well maintained and clean hotel, with good facilities. We would go back!

- All staff are lovely and even offered us help with our cases on arrival which was nice, thank you. The transfers from the airport were really fluid which was helpful when you have young children. - Accommodation - this was really deflating, it’s really poor and disappointing for the money, it’s extremely dated and certain elements are unsafe. The Mixer shower tap had no hot or cold sign, it either went too hot or cold. This is Unsafe for children. The family rooms are so so small, do not be fooled by travel the agents photos. The bathroom is so small whilst you’re on the toilet your legs are touching the bidet. The bunk bed was rusty with a swinging ladder again totally unsafe for young children. - The food is ok, pizza bar and burger bar are great for children and great selection of fruit, the staff keep the buffet well replenished and fresh meet or fish is cooked daily. It does get really busy at times so go early if you don’t like the hustle - The alcohol within the all inclusive is not great but I guess it is what you would expect in a 3* hotel, you can buy cocktails which are really lovely and worth the treat - Outdoors is great- plenty pools, splash play, slides and a short walk down to the absolutely beautiful beach (it is steep) not ideal if you have a disability but you will be ok with a pram, the beach is really beautiful which is the hotels saving grace, the views are stunning, I’d recommend booking a sea view if you can afford it. The complex also has a fantastic children’s park. - Evening Entertainment is ok and there are lots of activity’s you can be involved in throughout the day. Again the entertainment area gets really busy at night and there is a lot of hustle over chairs and tables. - There are Plenty restaurants along the beach front if you fancy an evening out and a couple of supermarkets just a short walk from the hotel - Car rental is available I would visit the area again but sadly not sure about the hotel due to accommodation as I don’t feel the accommodation itself even warrants a 3* “superior” the accommodation simply is not comparable to the exterior of the complex. The hotel was overwhelmingly busy and it simple wasn’t our cup of tea.

Just home after a week at Aguamarina and have to say we had a brilliant time. The rooms were cleaned everyday and fresh towels left, rooms are small but sure you're only in the room for a shower and sleep. Staff were friendly, we never came across any staff unfriendly in all areas.. The food. The Burger bar was a hit for our two children, and food was grand. The bar area was always clean and the All Inclusive option's for beers, wines and spirits was good and even soft drinks had a good variety. The main restaurant always had something for everyone. We had no issues with the food, yes it can get repetitive but sure that's All Inclusive. Staff worked very hard cleaning and clearing tables. Food was replenished as soon as running low. The pools were all great, but children's pools were very cold, we spent our time at block B pool mostly and after a go on the slides or a paddle in the children's pools the main pool was alot warmer. No inflatables allowed in the pool, but we didn't mind there was alot of people in the pool at times so there would have been no room for them. Staff did dancing, water polo and water carpet in the pool as well. Pool areas are cleaned daily and left clean and ready for each day. Entertainment in the hotel is non stop from morning to night for the children and adults. The team work so hard and do a great job. There's bouncy castle areas for the children to play away in by the park and crazy golf area. Water polo was always a good laugh for the adults. We were only disappointed we missed the foam party and the schedule changed during our week. There's not alot in the area around the hotel, a supermarket across the street and on up the street there is a gift shop and on past that a place great for the family called Backgammon with a gift shop beside it also., Further up past there is a waterpark also. If your looking loads of shops/bars etc this is not the place for you. You also have the beautiful beach at the side of the hotel where you can hire beds, pedalos and paddle boards, you can walk alone to a few more shops, restaurant and tobacco shop also on the beach path. The beach is worth a visit it's clean and the waters lovely. We did go to Mahon a day and it was nothing special, we went to market day and it was a nightmare trying to get on the bus due to queues and the bus already full when it arrives. Up the street by the gift shop/Lacoste shop sign there's a lady who braids hairs also, mostly there from morning to tea time. We would visit this hotel again for sure. It was an amazing week and we met the nicest of people along the way. Usually we do enjoy walking along a strip of shops/bars/restaurants but we were very content with the hotel and all it offers

Not at all worth the money we all spent as a family. One of the poorest 3*hotels I have stayed in, I know it’s focused for the children. But I would have checked out of block B if mine was small. The corridors was disgusting . Stains on the the old dirty carpet. Dirty walls I. Need of a paint. Old furniture that needed tipping in reception. And rude staff on check in. Best part was when they took if my wrist band. I felt like I had been released from prison. Never been but got that sense of relief. Slot better 3* hotels and cheaper. Tui was a joke didn’t even travel there or back on a proper tui plane. Thinking hard for next year. Hope not to be ripped off.

I really enjoyed my stay at aguamarina, the evening entertainment was amazing, the teen club was so fun and the animators were so nice to be around! They had a nice selection of food, definetly good for kids too. The waterslides were so good and there is also adult activities if you get bored so yeah I would recommend aguamarina!! (and if the animator Hugo sees this then hi!)
