Nice hotel with a lovely swimming pool and tennis courts. Staff on reception are friendly and the roof terrace was good for lazy afternoons to relax in the sun. We ate dinner at the hotel one night and it was good value and very nice good food. Drinks reasonably priced, rooms were ok a bit dated but comfortable.

The area around the hotel isn’t very nice and in October limited choice of restaurants around the hotel. It’s on the coast but I wouldn’t describe the area as refunded with lots of high rise hotels and restaurants with picture menus. The hotel guests were predominantly German so everyone assumed you just spoke German which got annoying - we were in Spain!! I wouldn’t really recommend this hotel for younger people as most guests just choose half board. It also felt a bit cramped at times by the pool area although there were lots of sun beds in a garden area. A pool drinks service was missing, you always had to go to the bar to order.

Fantastic

Very friendly and helpful staff. Lovely pool area. Good food, great wine and drinks list. Very clean.

BREAKFAST, LOCATION AND SERIVCE WERE OUTSTANDING.

Not very common in Europe,more of a US thing, but having the Iron for ironing clothes in the room is very helpful. They were always very quick to provide it for us, this is the only improvement i can think of.

Everything

Nothing

The breakfast. The pool is nice but there are limited beds. The night manager is also really nice.

The rooms are a bit outdated, which was underlined by the A/C which on the hot days could not work the room so the temperature did not drop below 23/24C (at night). Also towels did not get changed properly everyday. You would expect better for a nearly 300EUR/night rate. Hallways can be noisy. This is a German style hotel, and yes, that includes arriving early at the pool to put your towels down in order to secure your spot.

Super comfortable mattress on sun loungers. Beautiful breakfast served to you. Amazing illy coffee always perfectly hot. Palm trees around the pool and flowers added to the charm.

Impeccable service and great food

I stayed at El Coto as a solo traveller during the covid-19 times, and the steps they have taken made me feel safe. I asked for a yoga mat for my room and this was provided. My room was exceptionally clean and my view of the salt flats was incredible (203). The beautiful beach and start of the 3km seafront promenade were a stone's throw away from the hotel, and everything in the area was easily walkable. The staff were friendly and helpful - at my request they booked taxis for me from and to the airport with the lovely Natalie. The bar-tender's passion fruit daqueri with lime and rosemary aromatic garnish is a triumph! Obviously the area is quieter than it normally would be this time of year, which on a selfish level made the holiday even more special and relaxing. The sea was incredibly clear. The beach sand was beautiful and soft. I had an absolutely wonderful stay - thank you El Coto!
