hotel was brilliant, very clean, food excellent, plenty for children, kids club which was excellent, a variety of activities spread throughout the day for both adults and kids. club alexandra rooms recommended as you get pool view and also two hours use of the hotel spa which is excellent per day. kids mini disco excellent in the evening, also evening entertainment very good no show repeated over the two weeks we were there. all staff very friendly. only concern was the pool water turning some white swim wear yellow, and the ends of our daughters blonde hair green, and although there are plenty of beds you need to put your towels down around 6am to get a decent position. but this is not putting us off as we are looking at booking again for next year.

The restaurant was very clean. The food was excellent but repetitive. The rooms were very clean. Fresh towels and cleaned every day. The hotel is in the quieter part of Las Americas but only a very short walk to pubs & Shops etc. The hotel staff were very helpful and courteous. The night time entertainment was rubbish (unfortunately). The kids club was very good for my 8 year old. It was open from 11am to 5pm. She could go in and leave any time she wanted. No need to book in.

The price of all beers and alcohol was about 1.50 euro dearer than the local pubs. The pool area was not cleaned daily and was usually sticky under foot were someone had spilled coke the day before.

A lot of people complained about this. The usual fight for sunbeds started around 6am. People going out and leaving towels. And I'm sorry to say it was the Brits doing this. By 8.30am you would have been lucky to get a sunbed. This was bad enough but a lot of folk did not appear down until near midday. The Hotel Staff were reluctant to remove the towels.

Some guest did remove the towels, off course this caused lots of arguments. Gave me something to smile about while lazing around on MY sunbed. Some parents saving sunbeds for their very small children. I thought this was unreasonable, seeing as the kids are always in the pool. If you are booking I would recommend getting a superior room. For an extra 100 bucks you get a pool view and use of the Spa. (2 hours every day).

The Spa was fantastic. Used it every day from 4 - 6. Nice way to finish the day off before going out. A few lizards and cockroaches about (big ones too) - this is to be expected in a hot country.

A nice hotel - Worth a visit. Went to Loro Park - Whales and Dolphins - Great Shows. Unfortunately they let too many people into the park at the same time. So there is lots of pushing and shoving for the shows. Lost my 8 year old for about 15 Min's. Couldn't see her because of the crowds.

Finally found her 20 Min's later - talk about a blood rush from the head. Yep typically they squeeze the tourists in to make lots of money. Take my advise - Don't Go - Waste of 100 euros for 2 adults and 1 child. Plus the price of food and drink in the park is ridiculus. Went to Jungle Park - It was too hot so there was no shows on - All the animals were hiding in their dens. Hardly seen a whisker. Monkeys were going mad & fighting because of the heat. Only stayed there a couple of hours and left.

Unfortunately everyone had the same idea as us, and all left at the same time. It was chaos outside waiting for buses and taxis. Asked for discount but didn't get it. Wasn't really expecting to anyway. Another waste of a day and 70 euros. Didn't go to the water park.

Was advised not to go because the price of food and drink was high plus you had to buy your own rink to use for the slides.

We stayed with a 4 year old and a 2 year old and the food was great even for my fussy daughter. The only problem was you couldn't eat until 7pm which was a bit late for little ones.

The rooms were lovely and clean, the maids were always cleaning around the hotel.

The beach was only a 10 minute walk away. We would definitely return here !! A great family holiday in all.

Our children loved the mini disco in the evenings and there is a mini club for the kids to play during the day with or withour parents.

Sorry, this report is in french.

Tres bel hotel, mais la lenteur Espagnole est tres enervente, ils ne sont pas presser de vous aider.

(Beautiful Tres hotel, but the Spanish slowness is tres enervente, they are not in a hurry to help you.)

Invited to this hotel by my lovely daughter in law,and son.

I found the rooms clean with plenty of space,hotel staff pleasant and happy to talk to me.

The food was ok for this type of hotel apart from the Italian night ( I hate pasta) but the rest of my family enjoyed it, as my grand daughter was with us (aged 3) we enjoyed the entertainment, how ever it may have been different had she not been with us,on the whole not a bad hotel, ideal for wheel chair users, plenty of ramps and the area around the hotel is flat, yes I would go back to this hotel again.

I had nothing to moan about thus making this review boring.

The hotel is in a quiet area there are clubs nearby, but we were unaware of any noise from them. Everything is within easy distance.

There is a small supermarket opposite the hotel and a larger one if you turn right out of the hotel. La Siesta doesn`t have a car park we had to park our hire car on the main street outside the hotel.

Our room was on the ground floor, facing the pool and got all the afternoon sun. We paid extra for a superior twin which included 2 free hours per day in the spa, fruit on arrival, free robe and slippers.

The room was cleaned daily to a very high standard, as was the whole hotel and pool area.

There was plenty of sun loungers for all, but most beds had towels on them very early in the morning.
The best time to go into breakfast is between 8am-9am as it can become very busy after this, on one occasion I had to lay my own table.

The coffee and orange juice not very nice, but overall a good selection of food to suit all tastes. Sometimes the food was tepid.

The spa was great there is an appointment system to use the facilities, this ensured it was not overcrowded usually 6-8 max at one time.

Entertainment: Only caught 2 nights and felt it was pretty basic. One afternoon there was a fashion show by the pool for swimwear which was good fun.

The staff generally were ok, the service at the bar could be a little haphazard as staff were unaware who needed serving first. The reception staff were very helpful and friendly.

Niggles: No tea/coffee making facilities in the room.
Having to pay for the safe,(never had to in other 4* hotels) a refundable deposit, plus so many euros per day(can`t remember how many)A long walk round to our room from reception with no short cuts. We found the beds too hard for our liking but this is personal choice.

I would return to this hotel though.

Stayed here for 1 week on Half Board 2 adults and 1 child age 4 years.

Had a great week staff were friendly and the location of the hotel is great.

Food was ok have had better in other 4* hotels but not bad.

Hotel's location is good not far from a decent beach and shops, bars and restaurants nearby. We got what we paid for and more.

I visited this hotel in December. Sunny all week.

The hotel was in a perfect position only a short walk to the sea where there were lots of places to eat and drink. If you wanted something more lively then you were also only a short walk away but far enough away so you could not hear any noise.

The food in the hotel was OK but nothing bad.

The pool was lovely with lots of room, no need to get up at the crack of dawn to get a sun bed but it was December.

An excellent relaxing holiday

The hotel is a beautiful and clean hotel.

The hotel food was not 4 star food, there was simply not enough choice, we have been to most 4 star hotels now within the area and for food La Siesta does'nt come close.

The location of the hotel is great, almost everything is within walking distance.

We went out everynight so cannot comment on the entertainment.

I would go back to this hotel again, but most probebly self catering.

Just got back from our week at the La Siesta Hotel,absolutly fantastic!

The hotel,our room was cleaned everyday ,clean towels, room tidied, lovely!

The food was of a v/good standard, even my very fussy 10 year old managed to eat with no complaints. The waiters were very friendly and helpful with the children.

Hotel entertainment was fantastic,as previously said Miguel and Rhuzzo kept my kids entertained all day, plenty of certificates/tee shirts to be had/won for the games, it made my two kids holidays.

Would we go to this hotel again? Yes definitely.

I would recommend the transfer service Via Express
Booked both ways with them and was very pleased with the service-16 euros each way for the 4 of us in a minibus.

Cheers Dave
