I popped by the hotel with tickets for one of our excursions (Tourventura) last night and was very impressed by the reception. Very clean and modern, looking out to 2 beautiful pools fit with massage jets and top quality sun loungers. The clients have had very positive comments on the hotel, only minus being the views are not existant, all rooms looking out to other buildings.

I have just had a look at the information posted on Costa Caleta Hotel and it has been helpful. I was just wondering if anyone knew if the rooms have a shower as well? Do people use the main two pools or are they shaded all the time and also was just wondering what the kind of food is? It is half board what is the breakfast? :)

Week 1, arrived 3rd May 2006, very impressed room was very modern and clean, food was quite good but repetitive, eat out twice, entertainment was very good 1st week spanish couple singing, english guy impersonating singing but very very good and milo martial arts expert, multi-language, all had great personalities and very pleasent.
week 2, what happened ?, the big question that hotel management will not answer, entertainment changed to the 1 spanish guy singing, very evident that he was not comfortable without his girl partner, no milo (great guy) and no english singer, sorry i dont know his name but this guy was very very good, would like to have seen a lot more of him on stage, the entertainment was taken over by an english bloke who i dont think would have got a job at butlins, very amature approach, terible.
however the hotel has all, pool and swirl pools on roof, staff still need some training in customer care, the barman at night (PRAY FOR HIM) i dont think the guy can smile and spends more time getting the tip plate than he does getting your order, when checking out reception staff took room swipe card without looking up, saying good-bye or did you have a good time ( a lot to learn but has potential ) however back to san-jorge in september. enough said........

Caleta de Fuste has been renamed Costa Caleta and this is a relatively new Hotel actually called Costa Caleta Hotel.

Hotel is graded 3 star plus.

Location about 5 minutes from Beach but centrally located, bit of building work going on near Hotel but no problem.

Costa Caleta is relatively a small compact resort, small harbour and enough bars, restaurants etc to satisfy most people. I did find resort a bit dirty however, especially pavements, strewn with cigarette ends and rubbish. In my view a lack of bins but then again some people would not use them even if every 10 yards.

Hotel

Hotel is basically built around a courtyard which houses two pools and two whirlpool/jacuzzi type ones. Sunloungers were especially good, all had mattresses and back stays. Appeared to be plenty of Parasols too but like everywhere you had to beat the dawn patrol of Towel claimants.

When will any Hotel stop this practice?

There is a roof terrace however with plenty sunbeds but few parasols, bar (prices seemed to differ daily though) may have been unintentional.

There is a small plunge pool and two whirlpools on rooftop plus a mini golf course also. Not many seemed to use the rooftop area so you could get a quite spot and view was great.

Rooms were good but not many have a pool view and there appeared to be no facility to pay extra for one, so request one and hope for best, I was lucky I did that and got one.

Hotel is only three floors but all week on one side of Hotel the lifts were out of order.

Facilities

Basic entertainment but bar were it was held I found to be a very smoky atmosphere so really did not use it.

You can upgrade to all inclusive for 15 euro a day per person.

Restaurant

Food was poor, sometimes no pasta dish so if you are not a meat eater, tough. Salads appeared to be same every day.

Breakfasts were on some days appalling, eggs and bacon only hot choice one day, another day sausages were on, but hardly cooked, only Hotel I have ever been to where kidney beans, instead of baked beans, were on offerfor breakfeast.

In my view this Hotel caters for the Spanish clientele, lot of Spanish in and a lot of signs in Hotel in Spanish.

There is a TV in room but only 2 Spanish channels, you can get a lot of different channels, one hard porn (can be blocked but you need to request that) about 7 English channels, in fact a good choice but you have to pay, price varies depending on how long you hire this facility for, approx. 3 euro to 2 euro a day, cheaper the longer you hire it for. Deposit needed for remote.

If I went back to this resort, unless a good deal which this was, probably choose a different Hotel.

I think a lot of your questions were answered in my review immediately precdeing your post.

Depends what you mean by caters for children, children were there but I don't recall there being a dedicated kids club type thing.

It can get cool in evening but certainly could not be classed as cold.

There are brits in hotel as Direct Holidays and First Choice are represented but it was my view that it is used by a lot of Spanish and why not it's their country.

Plenty of Brits in resort however and Brit type bars
