We had a fantastic five-day stay at Port Europa Hotel. As a family of five, we booked two rooms. Each was a double room with a kitchenette and a sofa bed in one and two double beds in the other. The ocean view was gorgeous, and the beach was just a few minutes' walk away. We chose the all-inclusive option and were very satisfied. The buffet offered a nice variety of foods, and the staff was generally very friendly. A special mention goes to Marina from the entertainment team, who was a ray of sunshine. She was always smiling and made sure everyone received attention. Our son especially loved her because she included him in games, translated everything for him, and helped him feel welcome, even though he was a bit shy and didn’t understand Spanish. Thank you for making our stay extra special, Marina! Also, a shout out to Encarni from the bar for being so warm and welcoming and for her professionalism! Overall, it was a wonderful stay with a beautiful beach, spectacular views, and great accommodations. I recommend registering and going for a small hike up the mountain before the tunnel for even more breathtaking views. The hotel is about a 20-minute walk to the old city, with a grocery store nearby if you prefer to cook your own food. Mercadona, a more affordable grocery store, is near the old town and also within walking distance. Additionally, Salinas offers a flamingo pond, a small tourist market, and many nearby restaurants. I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a relaxing vacation in Calpe!

The Cookbook has 2 good quality restaurants and calls itself a boutique hotel. Unfortunately the hotel is not boutique as this brings to mind luxury and quality when in reality the rooms are looking tired and in need of attention. On checking in, first impressions were very good, staff are very pleasant and attentive, the reception area is modern and attractive. We were offered a drink while we were checked in, which was very welcome. Unfortunately once we got to our room, we discovered that the air conditioning was not working at all, it was running but just moving around ambient air. We called reception and they advised that they would call in the engineer whilst we were out for dinner. On our return, we were advised that they discovered that the unit had broken and we would be moved to another room. The replacement room air conditioning was working as it was a brand new unit, but instead of replacing the old unit with this new one, the old unit was left in place on another wall and the new one added as well. So the room contained two air conditioners which looked a bit odd. The hotel corridors were roasting hot, it appears that either the air conditioning is not working in these either or they had been turned off to save money. Our replacement room was looking very tired in places with doors needing sanding and revarnishing and drawers that were falling out if you pulled them out too far. Using the bathroom, we discovered a couple of issues. Firstly the sink tap was falling apart. Secondly and to be honest, totally disgusting was the wet black mould that I only discovered after I ran a bath and had a close up view of the bath tap. We reported both issues to reception and asked that they be resolved. Staff assured us that they would be immediately dealt with and on our return from dinner that evening, we were told that the sink tap had been fixed by the engineer, the mould would be dealt with by room service the following day. We were reassured that staff were on top of the issues and found the sink tap now fully working in the room. We felt confident the mould issue would be resolved the following day but to our disappointment, discovered the tap in exactly the same disgusting state. As were were spending our last night in the hotel and we had already bought it to the hotels attention, we decided to not bother to report a second time, but just list the issue here for other travellers to decide if they want to stay at this hotel or not! Breakfast at the hotel was fine although there was a bit of a lack of choice which other reviewers have complained about. It seems that there was a chef shortage as the receptionist was also doubling as the cook during our stay at the hotel. He advised us that the only thing he could cook was a plain omelette or scrambled eggs. Luckily we were fine with that choice and he cooked them well. I got the impression that most of the money spent on the Cookbook has gone into both restaurants (which are lovely) and

The room is spacious, with a sofa and a balcony. It is a few minutes walk from the beach. There are free parking spaces on the street nearby. There is a large supermarket across the street. The swimming pool is very beautiful. It is just in time for the European holidays. It is full of families with children on vacation. , the first choice for Calpe; however, those who are used to staying in star-rated hotels in China may not be used to it. There are no slippers, no toiletries, no paper towels, and no bathrobes. Haha, you need to prepare them yourself.

Room well maintained and hotel clean. Staff efficient and friendly from the cleaning ladies to the reception, restaurant and bar. Nice big outdoor pool and sufficient sized indoor pool as well. The evening entertainment could have been better but not a major problem. The hotel is nicely situated and there are plenty of restaurants, bars and shops close by. I would be happy to return to this hotel sometime in the future.

If you want to find a good hotel with a lot of magic and exquisite decoration, the Sea and Dreams hotel and get away from the hustle and bustle and stay in the old town, this place offers everything you need. Cleanliness, comfort and a charming hotel. The beach is a 7-minute walk away and the climb is a bit steep but worth it. The trea**ent is exquisite and they help you in what you need. Restaurants around. Parking 1 minute away and free except on Saturdays when there is a market.

The hotel is tall, but the service staff is a little less than China. The breakfast is rich in variety and the rooms are fully equipped and stylish. Not close to the beach, but far from the nearest.

The Hotel Porto Calpe is, without the slightest hesitation, easily the best accommodation we have had in Spain. This three-star hotel provides comfort, cleanliness and attention to detail was beyond the scope of those three stars. We paid a little extra for a front sea view which was worth every penny as the bustling port has character and charm and looking out and up to the Peñón de Ifach was amazing. I have included some photographs taken from our balcony. You may need to click on these for best effect as they are panoramas. The hotel is compact and bright. The room was immaculate. The bed was huge and extremely comfortable. Our linen was changed and the accommodation was thoroughly cleaned on a daily basis. All of the staff were friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make sure our stay was perfect. We Brits panic a little when there is no kettle in the room, however, one was provided for us without asking. Staying in the port area was nice and central with easy walks, past some amazing archaeology, to the old town and the Playa del Arenal-Bol in one direction and a short hop over to Playa de la Fossa in the other. There is also a brilliant little tourist train which is worth trying. Being in the port area is also a bonus if you like seafood as there are a good number of restaurants here literally specialising in preparing today’s catch for you. The Taberna del Port restaurant which is attached to the hotel is one of the best. We ate here more than once. There is so much to see and do in Calpe. We will certainly return. When we do, we will look for a room at Hotel Porto Calpe.

All right

The hotel is right by the sea, the service is very intimate, the breakfast is very rich, and there is rarely a breakfast provided by champagne. There are more elderly people in the hotel, the living environment is orderly and quiet, and the car station is 6 Euros.
