Great location, decent food and good quality drink
The hotel is fantastic. Great location, friendly staff, plenty of choice for food at the buffet style restaurant and good quality branded drinks. The AI is good value for money. Fish and calamari freshly grilled, steaks, roasts, pasta … Breakfast amazing!!! With custom made omelettes, good bacon free flowing cava, fresh juice, salmon, excellent cold meats. Having been here before my only criticism related to food is thst too much mayo and salads need less sausage and herbs on. That type of food is very German mayo on salads, mayo potatoes so we had to have chips and very nice canarian potatoes but salads we did not like. Also huge choice of cakes and freshly baked breads. Loved the Italian theme evening! What I missed and needs to be re introduced are the amouse bouche dishes for starters in the evening. We had superior upper floor rooms with stunning views of the ocean. The hotel is 5 min walk to the beach and 5 min walk to night life like Yumbo and not far from CITA. We had an enjoyable stay and one day at the jacuzzi that needs to be hired in advance. Thank you to Eva the manager and all the staff for a great stay

An excellent well located choice
Very well located minutes walk from the beach (there is a separate beach entrance/exit, which you may not immediately know - its through the restaurant where the toilets are, you will need your room key to get in and out) and also very close to Yumbo etc. Very friendly staff, excellent quality food and a nice pool area. Rooms are a good size and include a separate walk in wardrobe which helps keep the room clear. The hotel is spotless and the staff very friendly and helpful.

Recommended. Great buffet.
One of the best buffets for breakfast and dinner at any hotel we've ever stayed. Excellent quality and variety. Great staff. Pool well maintained. Enjoyed the tennis courts but they should have better supply of balls. They had one tube of balls well past used and then finally got just one more tube. Keep a supply on hand. The tennis court had too much sand on it making it dangerous.

When we arrived at the hotel we were allowed to check in earlier than usually allowed. Also we were offered a glass of champagne and the friendly staff couldn't do enough for us. We'd only booked for one night but wouldn't hesitate to visit again and would recommend others too.

Our staying in the hotel was good. We could check in immediately after arriving (around 1 o'clock) instead at 3 o'clock, what we very appreciated. The hotel and the rooms were clean, food was very good. 3 of us were vegetarian and they could find enough good food. In the hotel is only one disadvantage. People reserving the chairs with towel and go for breakfast or somewhere else. When you come at 11:00 o'clock all chairs are occupied but people are not there.

Wonderful holiday there. We will definitely be back. Food was exceptional although some protein for vegans would have been good. Gym didn’t have any bosu balls that I saw but was well equipped otherwise. Fabulous proximity tot he beach and the tennis court was in good condition with a felt surface cover in light sand so was forgiving on the knees. Nice room and bed were super comfortable. We tried to use the spa 3 times but there was never anyone there or no answer on the phone so we just went off site to use another spa service closeby. Staff were very good.

Perfect Location For Everything
Great location 5/10 minutes walk from everything.Staff excellent extremely friendly and helpful.Rooms cleaned everyday even if you leave to go out in the afternoon without asking.Buffet dinner was absolutely delicious with great choices. Only downside (not the hotel’s fault) is the type of customer the seem to have are just so ignorant pushing there way in at the buffet and in the corridors,never a thank you for letting someone by or holding a door open. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Highly recommended value
This place was an overall great experience. I loved that rooms have a separate walk-in closet and additional interior walls from (outside) corridor. Food is amazing. Rooms clean, all facilities cleaned more than daily. Quite an attentive staff. Oriental decor was a great vibe. Evening entertainment not great but far better than comparable hotels in Playa which I also visited.

Near perfect 3 week stay!
Positives: 1) great room update (thanks to hotels.com Gold or emptiness or the hotel?); made me to extend my stay from 1 to 3 weeks. 2) Awesome food, fresh made eggs in morning and fresh grilled meat or fish of your choice for lunch/evening and more than enough of other options for all diets. 3) Awesome facilities including still open heated outdoor pool and dry sauna, tennis, games.. 4) Location - next to beach (sea views!), car/bike rental, supermarket, short walk to Yumbo 5) Cleanliness - reliably perfect everywhere. 6) fast stable wifi, allowed me to work reliably Negatives: Staff often slow, had to ask for service many times. I also got charged for some beverages which I didn't drink, which was not fixed despite my 2 complaints. Still fantastic value and great stay!

Wonderful
I loved everything about it, specially the pool area which it was amazing, surrounded by palms, the pool was really clean and sunbeds really comfortable. The room had a great size and pool views. Eveything was looked after to the maximum detail. The staff were really friendly and made you feel like at home. There was many food options to choose from. Maybe the quality in some of the dishes could be a bit better but other than that, it was great. I was not leaving until the evening and they let me stay in my room until then. I understand this is no always possible if they have other guests coming, but it was a great extra offering this time.

I was welcomed at the reception with a glass of wine, which was very nice. the staff are great, very welcoming and helpful. The swimming pool is warm ( how fantastic!) but I was able to swim in the ( cold) sea. A small bottle of wine was also offered complimentary in the room. The food was great, I upgraded to half board for 9 euros which was very cheap. I would definitely return to Seaside, I think they offer more personalised experiences to clients comparing to Riu for example.
