Sol Barbacan

We are just back from a wonderful stay at this beautiful hotel. I cannot recommend this place enough! It was my birthday whilst we were there and on arrival we were upgraded to one of the two bedroom bungalows! These are absolutely amazing, a real home from home with everything you need. We had our own terrace with a table and chairs and sun loungers so you could eat al fresco on the warm evenings or have breakfast outside in the mornings. The cherry on top is the huge private roof terrace, you could sunbathe all day with no distractions, it’s completely private and a real gamechanger, we even had a small sea view 👌😍 On my birthday, my husband asked if they could get some flowers and a cake and they organised it all, the flowers were beautiful and the carrot cake was absolutely delicious, they also brought me a bottle of fizz and snacks and a card with compliments from the hotel, a lovely touch 🥰 The hotel is spotlessly clean and the grounds are really well kept, the staff are fabulous and really friendly. The hotel is really well situated, everything is close by including restaurants, supermarkets, doctors, dentists, you don’t have to walk far at all. We were really sad to leave but we will return and will definitely be staying here again 👌🥰

Family of 5 ranging from 14 to 80 had 5 days here for my 50th birthday. We stayed in a pool side 2 bed bungalow which was fine for our needs. Very clean and fully equipped. Two bedrooms two bathrooms, drying room, and double sofa bed. One thing would be there was only one mirror apart from the bathroom ones meaning we all used the one mirror in the twin bedroom. I think a second mirror in the double bedroom would be very useful or even one in the living area space. We slept well . There was an extractor type of fan in the kitchen which rattled all night as it was so windy. I think maybe that could be looked at as when you are sleeping on the sofa bed it’s quite loud but only when windy which it was for the 5 days. Maybe a cap would be useful to pop on on windy occasions. We were half board which was great. Breakfast was the usual hot items and pastries and cereals with hot drinks and juices. The evening meal was buffet and there was always something to choose from. My daughter who sometimes struggles also found food every evening. Fino in the evening restaurant was amazing and so much fun. He attended us very well and even brought out my surprise birthday cake to us and the boxed it up for us to take back to the room. He also was in the bar in the evening and was wonderful. There was a full programme of day time fun which we joined in with including aqua gym, quizzes, mini golf and stretching. My daughter, Isabella was made very welcome from Cynthia during the day and really made her stay fun. Roberto was also lovely and made us promise to do aqua gym so all 5 of us got in the pool and had fun with a great choice of Michael Jackson music. He always had a smile and again made Isabella feel part of everything and also used to say Hi to us in the evening and was always smiling. He gave my mum her nickname of Nonna which I think will stay with us. They had entertainment every evening which was fun and provided gas heaters and blankets to make us more comfortable outside in the evening. We had a great five day trip at the Sol Barbican. Please pass on how we enjoyed the company of Cynthia , Roberto and Fino.

Spent 10 days here at the end of April with husband and teenage son. The hotel is lovely, rooms are very clean and well equipped, although felt like the main bedroom could've done with a mirror and dresser. Most importantly, the animation staff were awesome. We were the only English family at this time, and they made sure we were included in everything. Special shout out to Max, who went above and beyond. The hotel is well situated, lots of great restaurants within easy reach. The beach was a good 10-15 minute walk though, downhill there uphill on the way back.

Enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The hotel is well located and quick to get to from the motorway. Didn't find walking anywhere a problem. Booked a one bed but were put in a two bed so plenty of space. Balcony was lovely and aircon worked well. Found the bed comfy but the apar**ent could do with a touch of updating things like the safe still needed a large key rather than a code. The pool is nice but shutting at 18:00 seems very early. Further we were in apar**ent 479 and the noise from the bar/restaurant below was so loud. On both Saturday and Monday night (we only stayed for 3 nights) there was very very loud live music which the doors did little to stop. Further parking is an issue on arrival there was no space and we had to park around 500 meters away. Despite this we would return

This hotel is spotless and the staff are all so friendly. The girl lifeguard is amazing she never takes her eyes of the kids and is so much fun with them my children Tianna & Parker loved when she was on duty. The food was lovely in the restaurant along with the pool food. Night time entertainment was great but was made even better when Roberto & Max would come out and entertain the crowd even more! Julia in the bar was so lovely too and ofcourse my little 7 year old son took a total shine to her 🥰 🤣These staff members are a credit to the hotel. Our first family holiday ends tomorrow and I would recommend to anyone with small children.

We stayed in April 2024 for ten days as a family of five. It was a package holiday with Jet2. The staff were all friendly and worked really hard. The hotel was clean and tidy. There was two large pools areas with a life guard in each. There was no sunbed wars. The aircon in the rooms was ice cold. The food at breakfast was fairly basic but a decent variety. The beach was a 20 minute walk. If you were elderly or had young children it would be an issue. The hotel is set on a busy roundabout, so there is traffic noise at all times. The entertain staff were lively and friendly. The drinks and snacks were fairly expensive. Overall a good stay in a reasonable location. We would return.
