Hotel Médano

Breathtakingly beautiful location for swimming and seaview. The hotel, formerly a shipping dock and storage facility, is partly built on pillars into the sea (terrace) and is located in a scenic small pedestrian steet opening to the sandy beach and the main square, with lots of small shops and a variety of nice restaurants and bars looking out at the sea. I had booked a very nice superior room with balcony but with only a lateral seaview out to the beach and paid an upgrade of 20.- per night upon arrival for a spacious and beautiful deluxe front sea view room with balcony. From the large sun terrace you have direct access to the sea via a staircase into the water. Big adavantage: you can change immediately into dry clothes/swimwear at the shower on the terrace. Very good breakfast, but only untel 10am, since I love swimming before breakfast, I would have preferred 11 am. Very professional and friendly staff, very good service at the restaurant and the bar. Open air live music on Fridays. Long morning or sunset walks along the shoreline or on the wooden path above the beach (natural reserve). No cars close to the beach! El Medano is rather small, no big hotel towers, only one 4 story bigger hotel across the bay, mainly appartments. End of March was perfect, not crowded, no need for reservations at the restaurants, sea temperature 20', mostly sunny (and windy)

The location is amazing with terrific views. Just outside the door, there are plenty of restaurants and shops, and you can step straight from the terrace to the ocean. My room didn’t have a balcony, but there was a huge terrace just a few meters from my room with a shower. The breakfast had a wide selection and was good. You can sit outside, enjoy your breakfast, and take in the views. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The hotel is in the best location, we could see fish from our balcony and watch people surfing and swimming. All of Médano's highlights are just outside the door. The bed was really comfy and the bathroom was beautiful too. We appreciated the smart TV so we could watch our favourite shows when relaxing. The hotel was really clean and well looked after.

Very nice room and also friendly staff. The check-in and check-out were pleasant and uncomplicated. Since this hotel is directly in the centre and the big plaza the beach, several restaurants, supermarkets and so on can be reached within walkin distance (less than 5 minutes). When I stayed in the hotel there was a big festival on the plaza and my room was facing directly to it. After a few days I asked if another room was available facing another direction due to the noise in the evening/night, and I was offered another room on very short notice. Thank you very much for this option and the customer friendliness.

The location was perfect! The room exceeded my expectations; it was spacious and very bright. In addition to the sea view, I also had a view of the nearby square, and it was nice to watch people going about their day. The large rooftop terrace was amazing, and it was always easy to find a good spot on the sun loungers because there were several terraces to choose from. Great breakfast buffet!
