Gran Garbi Hotel

Nothing at all.

Food is terrible. Rooms are super basic and poorly maintained. Pictures in booking are not the hotels picture. They belong to another hotel where the slides are.

The close proximity and ‘free’ access to the waterpark

Rooms very basic. Only English tv channel was the news. Food buffet was awful. We’ve stayed at lots of places in costa bravo so know what to expect but it really was sloppy and not well cooked. Struggled to find decent food. Meat was hit and miss and we avoided a lot. There was a variety which seemed to suit more from mainland Europe. The display was sloppy, staff didn’t care. Breakfast was truly awful. We survived off toast and tea. Lots of dinner food was recycled for lunch the next day and lunch was recycled for dinner. Waterpark was good for my 8 year old but still wouldn’t induce us to stay again. We’d rather buy a day ticket. Evening entertainment was lazy by the staff. Often just had the kids sitting there, didn’t do a full disco most days and when they did it was only 30mins. Reptile show is a money making rip off with 2 animals shown in 10/12mins and then queuing for a 10sec photo op with a snake for €10. All round disappointing and poor for adults but barely satisfactory for kids.

The sides at the pool are waterpark quality and a lot of fun. Having this included free was a huge plus that made this hotel worth a stay. Breakfast was perfectly adequate, and the room was clean enough. Common areas were worn out from very heavy use (like the rest of the town really), but in general not bad.

The rooms are incredibly basic and worn out. I was expecting this, so that wasn’t a huge issue. The problem was that the AC didn’t do a thing, and it was about 30 degrees at night. We really didn’t sleep at all and were extremely uncomfortable, sweaty, and thirsty. The bathroom was clean, but also really basic with one dispenser on the shower wall for one of those shampoo/shower gel combos... Just mentioning that as an example - I think this is really tacky for the price of the room.
