Bluesea Los Fiscos

Before our trip we were a little worried because we had read some negative reviews, but on arrival we were pleasantly surprised. It was a bit tricky to find at first, since Google Maps took us to the back of the hotel instead of reception, but once we got there, the lady at reception was very kind and helpful. We stayed in room 147, which was perfect as it had two pools right in front of us – one children’s pool (80 cm) and one adult pool. The water temperature was just right and very pleasant. The apartment itself was okay: the fridge was in poor condition, but the kitchen was equipped well enough for simple cooking. A microwave and a kettle would be a nice addition. The bathroom was fine, although the doors were a little hard to open, and the mattresses could definitely use replacing. Cleaning was done every other day. Towels were changed regularly, but not the bed linen. The floor wasn’t very clean, so slippers are recommended inside. The location is good: the bus stop is just 5–10 minutes on foot. Shops and stores are about 15–30 minutes’ walk away, and there is also a supermarket 10–15 minutes away where you can find everything you need. On the corner, there is a small pub/restaurant Hotel Restaurant: that served different meals every day. The food was tasty, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The bar was a bit disappointing, so the all-inclusive option is not really worth it. Usually only the cocktail of the day was included, and there were no snacks. That said, the staff were always kind and we had no problems. Overall, this is a good choice if you are looking for a simple bed & breakfast stay. On departure, the hotel kindly arranged a taxi to the airport for us, which was even cheaper than booking one ourselves. Thank you, Blue Sea Los Fiscos, for a pleasant few days!

Now this could have so easily been a 5 star but the food really let it down. Services was 10 out of 10 staff were incredible especially Mo on the front desk. He couldn’t be more helpful. Staff in the restaurant were fast and efficient. Bar staff hats off to them they work hard. One thing that let it down for me was the fact loads of school kids from main land Spain arrived each day. They were loud running around and made the pool not a nice place to be but I’ve not took stars off the hotel for this as I blame the teachers that sunbathed rather than looking after the kids. Rooms are dated but they did exactly what we needed them for. Good size too. I do recommend this hotel but as a Self catering of Bed and breakfast maybe. If you can drink go all inclusive but eat in the town.

When booking this hotel, please have an open mind as I would like to point out a few bad parts and a few excellent parts. If you are looking to book all inclusive, I would say it is excellent value, otherwise poolside drinks can get a bit pricey with one cocktail emptying your wallet by almost 5 euros and 50 cents. The pool, poolside bar and restaurant are well kept. The public toilets located by the Restaurant and Reception, alongside the poolside toilets are not the best, and could do with some additional caring. As for the apartments, they are quite outdated, with only a basic television, some don’t have a very good view and not a large volume of charging stations. Additionally, most rooms do not reach the Wi-Fi, you may need to be in reception or one of the hotel’s facilities to be able to use the network comfortably for browsing. There is some bad parts about the rooms which I would like to point out, if you are a person who likes a bath, although the hotel does have baths in most bathrooms, they have been painted, which I assume is to cover mould or damp. Alongside this, one of the main beds had a few bedbugs, which are not ideal when they bite. The mattresses in the bedrooms are not the best, but they are comfortable enough for a week or 2 week holiday, I would advice against staying longer than that unless you are okay with this! As for self catering the apartments have a nice kitchen, fully equipped with a sink, stovetop, fridge freezer (small) and silverware. The staff are very kind and helpful, if you need a taxi ask reception as they will happily call you one, which can save you time and hassle, alongside this, they can also pre-book your taxis. The cleaning staff visit your apartment every other day, brining you a toilet roll and fresh towels. If you are not in the room, they will sort your bed. Please note I would recommend knowing basic spanish words to help communicate with staff, although a large quantity of the members do speak SOME english, it is not 100%. This is especially found when attempting to communicate with the cleaning and maintenance staff. I would NOT recommend this hotel to anyone with motion issues as there is a large volume of stairs on the site, making it hard to get around. Even for most people with no issues with motion. Overall, we stayed for 7 days and their was only 2 bad meals during our stay, as their was a lack of choice and quality. If you like foods such as: Fresh Salad, Fruit, Chips, Rice and Pasta, you will not go hungry as during the day there is plenty of options for these. I would note that if you are a fan of Ice Cream, the hotel does not have any available, but you can purchase these from the bar, but the selection is limited and the price is on the higher side, especially when around the corner at the THB Flora, their is a nice little supermarket where you can get the basics like these. The site is located in a nice position, it is on a steep hill so plan ahead as it is quite tiring to climb up and down. From the rooftop, accessible by stairs located by the pool, you can sunbath and take in the view during the day, whilst getting stunning views of the town and beyond at night! For the price, the hotel is good. But the accommodation could do with some assistance.

After reading a lot of negative reviews before going on holiday my anxiety was at rock bottom and I was absolutely dreading the holiday, but once we arrived and inspected the room it wasn’t all bad at all dated 100% but big spacious rooms, the only reason for the 4* is the lack of air con and only being able to hire a fan. We didn’t experience any bed bugs and the beds wasn’t to bad to sleep on!! The food was okay a different choice daily was all edible Breakfast consisted of your usual full English selection, fruit, pastry’s and different breads Lunch was different each day and we always found something we liked Dinner also different each evening and again found something we liked. The pool is very deep but lovely when it’s been a hot day the pool snacks are a let down with only bread, cheese and ham to choose from. But otherwise the staff were all lovely and accommodating it was clean throughout the hotel had no problems at all. For a cheap little get away bluesea los fiscos should definitely be considered!!

The bread tasted like polystyrene, the beach is quite far away drinks are overly sweet and there is no AC so you have to sleep with the door open would not recommend. Bobby the bartender was the only good part about this hotel.
