Reviews for Medplaya Hotel Santa Monica
Review 1:The queuing at opening times was a bit tedious.
Review 2:We were expecting the worst, having read previous reviews - but we were pleasantly surprised The staff were pleasant and helpful. The room was very clean - although a bit dated it was totally acceptable. The meals offered good value for the money - not gastronomic but wholesome and plentiful.
Review 3:Beds uncomfortable, walls paper thin - we could hear every single word from the roon next door - no hairdryer, water pressure terrible, dark corridors, lift painfully slow, dreary overall
Review 4:The room was clean
Review 5:breakfast always cold and really hard fried eggs. no free wi fi. need more lifts always a queue. did not like having to queue for my main meal. poor entertainment for adults
Review 6:the staff really friendly, very close to beach and town
Review 7:Very basic with old rooms, furniture and bedding. Plastic seats, tables and sun beds in the pool area. Very thin walls, noisy neighbours. The hotel was full of overweight, elderly people during our visit, mainly Brits and Russians participating fully with the 'all you can eat' buffet. If bingo and beer are your style go for it! Not what I expected from the 7.9 review score. Obviously frequented by people enjoying all of the above, not the place for a more experienced (or sophisticated) traveller.
Review 8:Most staff members were friendly and helpful. We managed to get beds by the pool on most occasions. Wifi was good in our room, after we paid extra.
Review 9:enertainment team fabulous - providing activities all day for adults and children, and an evening show as well. The staff were all very friendly. The dining room offered a good variety of very tasty food. You would have to be serioulsly faddy not to find something you would like,
Review 10:Breakfast (always the same), more for English people (eggs, beans, sausages) , stones beaches. I was fed up if Russian kids, very noisy!!!!!
Review 11:The only Sunday beach is St Christina , very nice for small kids Nice hotel but quiet old fashion furniture inside. Cleaning ok but could be better. Entertainment for kids very good but the only problem is that they take all kids for the particular game (3 years old together with 11 years old) therefore it is not possible for the youngest kids to win a diploma ( which was very upsetting for my 4 years old daughter). Food very good especially dinner (wide variety), but very poor breakfast (always the same). Half board does not have any drinks with a dinner!! And the worst - big queue at a dinner time!!! The best person to speak with from reception - Peter!! Beaches were nice but stone like than sand and too hot to walk on ( not sandy, so difficult to walk for kids, and very deep sea side, young kids unable to swim)
Review 12:They were 3 in my party, yet you can only order 2 drinks. I had to order my 2, tell me my third to get on my return, but it would not be poured, I had to que again. Very very annoying, especially when the bar is busy
Review 13:The entertainment was first class and reception were very helpful especially Peter.
Review 14:Breakfast and lunch was ok but dinner could improve a little, a bigger selection of vegetables and some nicer meat dishes needed.
Review 15:The friendliest bar staff ever ! Nice pool area, us beds were always available even on the hottest of days.

Review 20:You could hear people from other rooms, walls were really thin
Review 21:The staff were really nice and helpful, food was fine too, rooms were cleaned every day, we had 200m to sea and 3 min walk to centre
Review 22:Poor quality of food. Also walls are really thin, so we could here our neighboors, their TV etc
