KN Hotel Matas Blancas

Matt Murray

Lovely clean, tidy hotel with great service, good food and pleasant staff. It only scores low in my opinion due to the location. If you want sun and relaxing only, ideal location, but for perhaps the occasional walk or the need to buy anything you are limited. The general area around the hotel is abandoned (for want of a better description) although there's a couple of mini-markets and a pharmacy should you need it. Anything more than that needs a car, or other transport as Costa Calma is fairly remote. This is nothing against the hotel though as it's fully contained. The pool music is fairly unique too, artists played in alphabeticall order and their tracks also in alphabetical order. As long as you don't want to hear anything newer than 1999, they have you covered. ;) Overall, great for sun and food. Shame the gym is closed (at the time of review, summer 2024) as it looks well-provisioned and I could do with trying to exercise off some of the food!

Do not recommend it. The only reason I booked was because it was advertised it had a gym, only to find out it was out of order upon arrival. You will also have to pay to use the Spa -€15 for 2hrs. Out of the whole hotel only probably one person speaks English. Also, their staff is very rude and unprofessional. I arrived for their breakfast at 6:30 to be told then it a 7 am, and then when it got to 7 am was told it at 7:30 am. It would be nice if they had staff that speak little English. They also seem to find it very funny and begin laughing at you if you don’t understand Spanish 🙄. I also saw a cockroach in the restaurant area for dinner yesterday. Friendliness - hardly any there. The hotel was also advertised with sea views but it's at a very dodgy place. Up a hill and difficult to find. The walls are super thin, and you will always be able to hear next-door activities. Staying somewhere else and not in this hotel will be my advice.

For a hotel with great facilities, clean rooms, lovely spa and nice areas to sit by the pool and restaurants, its lacking vastly in atmosphere. Majority of the staff were rude, not helpful and quite blunt to be honest. The only reason why it isn't 1 star is because of the nice room and good food. I was not told where anything was, yet had to ask repeatedly. No entertainment, if there was, I didn't know about it. Just overall could have been a much better experience! Management, you need to review your team and work on introducing new guests to the hotel better.

The island is a quiet holiday vibe so if you want any type of late night party then it’s not the place. It’s a nice, laid back chilled out place. Great selection of food for the All Inclusive, consisting of breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks available in between the main meal times. Friendly staff and beautiful swimming pool.

Although no major issues with the hotel, there were some things that would deffo prevent me from going back. Rooms were generally clean, however our bathroom had a really bad smell coming from it and the showers don’t have a consistent temperature, fluctuating between hot and cold. Towels were clean but had holes in and we were only given 1 big towel and 1 hand towel between the two of us. Food was generally underwhelming, breakfast was okay but not very much selection. As a vegetarian I felt like there wasn’t much option for me. We didn’t stay all inclusive so drinks from the bar were incredibly expensive and with the location of the hotel there wasn’t any restaurants close, and we were told it would be €20 each to eat at the hotels restaurant. The hotel is in the middle of nowhere really so shops/restaurants are very far away, there’s nothing to do close to the hotel and the beach is just over a 30 minute walk away. Staff can’t really speak English, luckily I speak Spanish so could communicate but my partner and other guests had an incredibly tough time trying to speak to staff whom were generally quite rude. The mini market barely had any food and what was there was unreasonably priced. The hotel is situated on a hill and so is incredibly windy everyday despite the temperature. When outside towels and belongings are flying everywhere. The pools are also way too cold with nobody really going in them. Entertainment was lacking, evenings were quite boring with not much to do. Plus the gym wasn’t open despite not being told this anywhere. Wasn’t un-stayable but wouldn’t go back.
