    WiFi wasn’t the best it cut out a lot. Food and drink is expensive if you eat in the restaurants that require reservations, but that’s expected in places like this.

    Everything was lovely, we stayed in a 1 bedroom apartment and you had everything you would need while staying there. Lots of space for us even with a toddler and a cot. Very family friendly. Also good to know the super market is right across the road from the main entrance and has everything you will need in there. The Japanese restaurant was amazing defo recommend a visit.

    The room was odd in that there was a large soaking tub in the middle of the entrance to the bathroom. It was unnecessary and was in the way. I doubt many people use it. The rook also had a full kitchen ( unnecessary for most guests, a shortage of storage for clothes and a washer/dryer that we couldn't figure out and neither could the staff. Some language difficulty with housekeeping staff but very nice.

    The fact that the resort does not have kitchen of it's own.

    The environment was fantastic. The staff excellent. The resort does not cater for food directly but there were different restaurants dotted around the resort to pick and choose from. Walking distance to Local shop just outside the resort's gate for all other needs. The staff were so helpful and excellent WoW!!. The beach was great. The weather was not too cold nor too warm during the Christmas period, there was no need to have any jackets.

    Beautiful resort, with great facilities for families.
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children

    • Stayed 6 nights

    Some of the restaurants were closed due to being low season, which meant eating out for dinner was very limited to only two restaurants to choose from, and limited variety for vegetarians. It basically meant having to have pizza or pasta every night. There was also no dinner buffet, thankfully I brought food with me for the baby so wasn't too much of an issue. Also, check-in at the Pine Ocean Suites took 35 mins as there was only one receptionist who was very slow, ignored us, and didn't bother to call for another colleague to help (the bell-boy had to do that as he was so embarrased at how long they were taking). Nor did Reception bother to sit us down and welcome us with a drink (as in other hotels) and explain there would be a slight wait. We had to instead stand in line, with an exhausted and tired baby after a long journey and delayed flight. Almost spoilt the whole arrival for us! Luckily, other staff members were great and very friendly, especially the staff member who helped with our luggage.

    Apartment style room was great, fully equipped kitchenette and very clean and comfortable, which was very useful with a small baby. Had everything we needed, so was easy to make lunch and formula for the baby. It was light, bright and airy. They provided a cot and high-chair for the baby, and also there were black-out curtains in all the rooms. There was a bathtub in the bathroom, again very handy with a baby. Resort is beautiful in a great location and we were able to walk around everywhere on site. I would definitely return here again.

    We were surprised that the club cars and golf buggies were still petrol powered and not electric vehicles. This was noticeable as there were club cars constantly around the resort which were loud and had fumes. In 2024, in a luxury resort we would have expected that these would have been transitioned to electric vehicles. We expected the food to be expensive given the location but the drinks and food were extremely expensive €9 for iced coffee, €5 for can of coke etc and each bill also included a 10% suggested tip. Whilst tipping is fine for a meal with great service it was surprising that when walking to a bar to get an expensive drink you were still asked to tip. That said you have facilities to cook in the accommodation and can bring your own drinks to the pool etc.

    Pine cliffs is what you would expect for a 5 star establishment, the staff were very friendly, food and drinks were brilliant and everything readily available which was perfect for us travelling with our 5 month old baby. The apartment was well equipped and travel cot and high chair provided. Supermarket nearby and would recommend a short drive/Uber to the larger Aldi/Lidl in Albuferia as much more selection available. The real stand out for us was how brilliant the cleaners were - our apartment was always spotless after their visit. Shout out to Sandra at Portofino who made us feel very welcome. The gym was well equipped. Pools were well maintained and lots of loungers available. We would have appreciated if one of the pools was heated (especially the kids pools) as was a little cold to take a small baby in but maybe this was that we visited later in the season.

    There are no walking paths outside the grass areas and most cars drive at fast speeds internally which doesn't make you feel safe to leave your kids alone. They need to install cameras or larger speed bumps. The gyms are too small and if you're the type that wakes up early to hit the gym, it's most likely overcrowded. The padel court is not free. The restaurants are good, but priced at "great'.

    Impeccable hygiene and clean rooms with comfy beds. The nature & beach are just beautiful. Lots of pools and grass lounges and several restaurants to choose from. Great for a few days for families to just chill & relax.
