Occidental Pueblo Acantilado

Beautiful resort with beautiful views. The rooms were big and clean. The food at the restaurant was like lovely at lunch time and the Spanish and Italian restaurant where also great. The pool was a little cold but that was okay as we came in April. Didn't stop us from going in and enjoying it.

I loved the layout of the hotel, it was very unique and quaint. I booked an apartment. The kitchen was just OK, a bit tired and would benefit from revamp. Had to hire the cups, plates, pans etc. for the kitchen which I felt was unnecessary. Why have a kitchen if you aren't provided with utensils. Had breakfast and dinner and food was very good. The location is hard to reach, a bus comes every hour but can be difficult to get the times right, we found ourselves waiting at bus stops for long periods. We landed by train from Alicante and the station was a good distance from the hotel. No transfer, rang hotel and no taxi could be booked and we just had to sit and wait about 40 minutes hoping a bus would come which it eventually did. Had to book taxi from hotel back to airport at 50 euro.

Probably the most beautiful resort I’ve ever stayed in, set out like a colourful, little village. We had a superior suite at the top of the property and despite having no sea view we had two little balconies with views to the mountains and down the pretty street and it felt really private. The room was amazing - so much space for my niece and I, spotlessly clean, and really comfortable beds. The air con was efficient and black out curtains and shutters meant a great sleep. Great shower. Really good breakfast buffet with plenty of hot, cold, sweet and savoury items. You can sit in or outside to eat. We didn’t eat at lunch or dinner as were out and about in the car but there were two restaurants right by the hotel (one Spanish, one Chinese) as well as its own restaurant and poolside bar. Nearby Villajoyosa is beautiful and has some lovely restaurants - Som de Mar on the sea front in nearby Villajoyosa was fabulous for sharing plates of seafood or a paella. Friendly, courteous staff throughout the resort. Definitely recommend hiring a car and using it as a base to explore (it’s only a few minutes off the main road from Alicante so great for exploring that stretch of the coast). I’m sure it’s lovely as base for those who prefer to just stay on resort all week too.

Views were amazing from the room overlooking the ocean. The complex itself is beautiful in its style.

Amazing views and beautiful complex. The suite was very spacious. The breakfast was great but dinner wasn't really anything special apart from one night that was outstanding. The pool area is very nice. We will definitely go back for the views. Very nice place to relax and do nothing.
