El Tinto Golf Course

If your like me and don’t want to make reservations while on holidays, your eating options are limited to 1 out of 6 restaurants. It is a buffet, but still. The beach is not beautiful like the photos show, there are shallow break walls which keeps the water mucky and the abundance of seaweed being raked daily couldn’t be kept up with. Friendly employees, clean resort.

Beautiful location and wonderful people who worked there

From the free private pickup at the airport to our personal concierge, we had exceptional service from the moment we arrived! We felt like family as we arrived, spoken to by name, handed drinks we'd pre-ordered from the car, checked-in right away and then introduced to our concierge. She went over our dinner reservations for the week, gave us a brief tour of the resort and got us settled in. The resort was wonderfully accessible with ramps and elevators. We appreciated the care taken for the environment, lots of eco practices in place. The lounge chair reservation service was wonderful, no fighting over saving chairs, a huge relief! The beach servers were attentive but not pushy, we had all the drinks and food we needed each day and the ice lollies and fruit skewers that were handed out midday were a wonderful treat. The resort was kept incredibly clean and the staff worked tirelessly to tidy and take care of us. Our villa was very spacious and comfortable and our bathroom had large bath sheet towels (a huge plus for two women over 6ft tall!) The evening turn down service was a lovely bonus. 24-hour room service was a great option and the food and drink at each and every restaurant was exceptional. Two minor downsides: The time share push is real, but it wasn't overbearing. Our concierge tried, and tried and we said no thank you and that was sort of it. She was pretty attentive the first couple of days, texting and checking in, saying hi across the resort when she saw us -
