Moona Hostal Altea

Hotel Altea Paradise 1917 - Adults Only

"Truly lives up to the name, paradise indeed. Tucked away above Altea Old Town, so peaceful and quiet. Feels like being in Thailand, with beautiful gardens, plants, pool and banana trees full of fruit. Honesty bar, very well stocked and plenty of ice. Lovely fresh breakfast with amazing cakes made by Aranza who is a key part of running this small privately run hotel. Walkable, if you are quite fit, into the Old Town or you can drive up the hill and park, then easy flat walk. A beautiful relaxing experience, room was excellent too with efficient air conditioning and comfy bed - we will return."

Hotel Abaco Altea

"Abaco is a boutique hotel, very conveniently located right in the middle of old town and sea front in the beautiful city of Altea. I will write another review for Altea separately. My husband and I had a three day stay at Abaco. Parking garage is available at 18 Euros per day. We didn’t think our car would fit the entrance of the garage so we parked at a parking lot nearby which was safe, free and tons of parking. The room we stayed in was a premier room with a jacuzzi in the bedroom and a separate, very spacious bathroom, equipped with a two person shower with two rain showers and two hand held showers, oversized bath sheet towels, medium towels and hand towels. There was liquid hand soap, hand lotion next to a contemporary, large hand sink, tissues in a cute tissue holder, big basket for towels, and a large shelf to keep toiletries. The shower had shower gel and one combo shampoo and conditioner bottle. The toilet paper holder was very irritating and I wish hotels would pay more attention to that. In USA we’re not used to toilet paper holders that actually don’t hold the paper roll in place and falls down at every attempt to take the paper out and also having to turn 180 degrees to get the paper , but that’s a personal quirk I always have. The room was quite spacious with an oversized safe and plenty of shelves for keeping luggage. The bed was queen sized - not king sized as I would’ve expected. But they do have a family sized room with extra twin beds. I would give them extra ratings for their beautiful personal touch to everything, including taking us to our room to giving us personal attention at breakfast. The breakfast experience is very personalized and we had to make a reservation for the time we would breakfast. I don’t know if they’re short staffed this time of the year (early Feb) or to give us a personal experience. But in any event, we enjoyed the experience. They do have a small buffet layout with croissants, cakes, cereals, nuts and toppings, chia pudding, cut up mixed fruits ready in little bowls, choice of jellies and jams, Nutella, honey, slices of ham, bacon, cucumbers, etc. I would suggest, though, if you don’t mind, putting cucumbers away from meats coz I couldn’t eat them and please add some actual veggies to the menu like mushrooms and green peppers or cut up tomatoes. Cukes were on the same plate as the meats and it didn’t work for me coz I am a vegetarian who eats eggs. They brought a bottle of fresh juice to our table everyday. They bring out tea and coffee on demand, unlike other hotels where you can choose your own from the coffee machine. The also take your order for eggs and toast your choice of bread. Breakfast is from 8:30-10:30 so this may not work for people who want to get started with their day early. The day we were checking out we requested boxed breakfast at 8:00AM coz we had to leave early but instead they agreed to serve us breakfast in the hotel at 8:20 but without cooked eggs. I found that a littl"

Hostal Luxury Nit I Dia

"This hotel has so much going for it. The location couldn’t be better—right on the beach and just a short stroll to old town. The chic decor sets the tone, and the bed was wonderfully comfortable. On our second night, we were even treated to a fireworks display outside our terrace that rivaled any we’ve ever seen—truly spectacular. That said, there were a few things that kept our stay from feeling five-star. The room description mentioned wine or champagne, but none was included; when I asked about it, I was told it was an extra charge. Communication was also a little hit or miss—I had to follow up twice for restaurant recommendations and never received an answer about breakfast options. We’d read from other reviews that fruit and pastries were sometimes offered in the common area, but during our stay they weren’t available. The furnishings, while stylish, leaned more toward design than comfort. The sofa was narrow with no armrests, and the terrace table wasn’t especially practical for relaxing or dining. Finally, the room would have benefited from some basic resources on local activities, which would have been helpful for planning. Overall, this is a beautiful property in a fantastic location with memorable moments, but some of the details and attentiveness fell short compared to expectations."
