I was just wondering if anyone can tell me what this hotel is like?I've read the reports in the reviews &it all sounds very nice. I am due to go there the end of August.
When i go away with my grandmother we like to be really waited on in really nice surroundings. I've also read different opionions over how far the shops/bars are. My nan can walk some way but she is 65 so knows her limits and would probably go at a leisurely pace. Is outside the hotel tp the bars and shops safe for 2 women to walk on their own?
Also could anyone tell me if the hotel does room service or whether i need to make other arrangements. Also what are the rooms like and the entertainment in the hotel. Is there any where to get a pool snack at the hotel?
I would also like to know whether there is any internet access at the hotel or near by.
um.... i think thats all for now, but no doubt i'll probably have a few more questions before we go.

It is quite a walk to the town although there are a few restaurants and a couple of supermarkets nearby.But a cab will only cost 3€ and takes a few minutes from there.I certainly feel safe walking about on my own at night if I want to go shopping etc.and the coastal path is very flat and even.
Entertainment is of a general standard,Flamenco dancers etc.Don't think they had internet access when I was there.But hotels either side of it,the Rubicon and the Timanfaya do which is coin operated.
Sure you will have a great time there.
The area was developing a bit more while we were there 2 years ago with the introduction of the Rubicon palace so its poss there may be shops closer now. I know they were looking to build houses next door to the Rubicon - not sure if they have done it, or if they are doing it now.
Yes the Timanaya had internet access - think it was 1 euro for 10 mins.
Has anybody stayed at the Natura Palace? Me and the family are due out on 6th June.
Stayed at the Holiday Village in Costa Del Sol last year, and can only hope that the natura lives up to that experience.
Cheers,
Gomez.
Hi
Ta Pippy,
Yes-I spent a couple of weeks there 2 years ago.Hotel was great,food very good,rooms lovely.The whole hotel was spotless throughout,including the pool area that was cleaned every day.The usual run of the mill entertainment of an evening,Flamenco dancers etc and a piano bar for a quiet drink.Is in a lovely location for a stroll along the coast into Playa Blanca.Sure you will have a great time there,we couldn't fault it.
I have been looking at the reviews that pippy put me onto, and they all seem to be stating the same.
Did you use the gym/massage facilities?
Never have myself, but may venture into the unknown this time!!!
No-I didn't use the gym at all as the weather was fabulous at the time and we never got around to it.But plenty of people were going in and out of there all day so seems very popular.If I remember correctly it was set away from the hotel a bit and tucked away round the back somewhere.
I understand that safety deposit boxs are in reception, just wondering how big they are? I have been to some hotels and they are tiny and i would like to store my sony handicam in one while its not being used.
From what I recall they are big enough to put your Sony in,I used to put camera etc in when i stayed there.
As the previous post is almost a year old has there been any changes to the Natura Palace hotel in the interim. I'm going there in November and would apreciate an update on the hotel.
Haven't stayed there since, but popped in for drinks and see the entertainment one evening in June and everything still looked as immaculate as always.
I'm sure I read that the pool is heated - can anybody confirm this?
You may have read that one pool is heated and the other not but it all depends on your concept of heated Was there in Nov last year and found no difference in the two pools regarding temperature. Both were equally cold till aclimatisation set in and then were OK but took a bit of getting used to believe me. You could always go to the spa and get pampered in there.
oooh good idea. Spa for me, pool for hubby and kids
