Hl Club Playa Blanca Hotel

Avas vlogs

Just back today would i return, Absolutely NOT! The hotel is gorgeous the grounds are fabulous. Hotel is only a 10 minute walk to main town. We paid 6000 for two weeks all inclusive 2 adults 4 children, the food was awful my kids lived off plain pasta pizza and chips. The staff that worked cooking the food and cleaners in the food area are great workers couldn’t fault how hard they work and they’re really nice but major changes need to happen with food. We ate out every day! The cleaners for the rooms are lazy and dirty id have to ring and request towels and fresh bedding, bins where left stacked out side for two days I had to ring for them to be removed, floors never washed or swept. The entertainment for the kids was ok the lads where so nice always went above and beyond to greet you, the bar lads where quite rude the cocktails where cheap and to sweet. It’s such a shame because the hotel could be amazing if they made changes. Playa Blanca was not a place for us in general and we would not return.

Where to begin with this .. Been here for a week and the bungalow room and grounds are fine. The location is also a good feature if you want to leave, which you definatley will. The staff are all nice and attentive but there seems to be a lack of staff around the pool/restaurant area. The entertainment staff are nice and seem to also cook poolside on some days? The main problem with this hotel aswell as it needing a re-furb and a good clean- is the food. Dancing with death everytime you eat in the cafeteria as everything is not quite right, not to mention the poolside snack area which also leaves alot to be desired. Salad is dry, meat is poor quality, everything is just strange. THEY SERVE BOILED SPROUTS, CARROTS, GREEN BEANS for breakfast- next to what looks like mini boiled sausages??? I have no idea who this is aimed and is frankly a joke. Another thing is the pool which blasts music all day which I dont know who this is aimed at either. Other than leaving to go to the beach and spending money in Playa Blanca the hotel is a bit of a mess, save your money and get a villa or go 5 star I recommend. However some people seem to like it here so maybe its me. If this was a 2/3 star hotel it still would not be acceptable but they could get away with it, but a 4 star hotel is crazy and I cant grasp how it could possibly be. PS. The gym is excellent but not sure if it has anything to do with the hotel

In our opinion HL Club is great. Rooms are dated but clean and very spacious. Whole resort is immaculate and lovely friendly staff. Didnt really bother with entertainment but looked pretty standard for a family hotel. Easy 10 minute walk to marina and some lovely restaurants. The food is awful. We stopped eating there after couple days. Stone cold, either very overcooked or barely cooked. Selection left a lot to be desired and was actually laughable. Boiled sausages, brussel sprouts and sweetcorn at breakfast was strange. Pasta could have been boiled again as it was that hard after being left out too long. Manager seemed to spend a lot of time sitting talking to other staff but never spoke to customers. Real shame as otherwise its great.

It is what it is, have no expectations and you won’t be let down. Just sent two weeks here. Rooms are just decent. Staff are friendly but seem to be very understaffed. Rooms don’t get cleaned, you have to ask. Food is very very poor. We were all inclusive and had to eat out every night it was that bad. Drinks are shocking also. Watered down everything. It’s a 2 star establishment nothing more. You can tell the place is ran by an accountant because everything is budgeted to a shoe string. We won’t go back but we won’t knock it too hard either.

Have just returned from a brilliant holiday here! Lovely resort set up, with the chalets being ideal for what our family needed. Kids entertainment was great for our 2 year old and our 10 year old came in and out of it when he wanted. Staff were all so friendly and helpful, and couldn't fault them. Loved the food, thought the choice was really varied. 2 of the 3 kids can't have dairy, but there was enough there for them still. The gym was one of the best I've seen in a resort! Short walk into town and the beach. Regret booking the waterpark as I thought it was closer. Was a 20 minute bus ride to another hotel, but a 10 minute walk. We used it once and only stayed a morning, the waterpark itself was tired and quite small. Wouldn't do that extra again. Overall great holiday and was perfect for we needed! Would just add, lots of lovely people gave us inflatables and pool toys, try to pass them on as if you leave them outside your room they get thrown away!
