Lopesan Costa Meloneras Resort Spa & Casino

5 readers found this review helpful

Just come back from a wonderful stay at the Lopesan Meloneras Hotel, it's classed as a 4* but i think it could pass for a 5*. The room was immaculately clean, separate shower, the beds were very comfortable, took me a while to get used to the hair dryer (bit like an elephants trunk!) but that is the only slight negitive i could comment about this hotel. All the staff were very friendly and the uniforms smart and extremely clean. The resort is just outside the rear gate and need your room key to get back in. We found some very upmarket bars and resaurants loads to choose from, if you like live music try the irish bar 19th hole, brilliant nite.Lots of designer shops, and an indoor shopping area that sells all sorts of a mix. The resort itself is fab, clean (no doggy poo) no flyers, no time share touts, and no plastic cola chairs and happy hours! classy relaxed resort, so if your idea of a holiday is kareoke, cheap beer and sports bars don't go there.

Well, we paid 110 Euro's each plus 55 Euro's for our 4 year old son for the Gala New Year's Eve Dinner. We were forced to take our table in a side room at 18:00 and warned at 19:45 that we had to be out by 20:00.
We had a bottle of wine delivered to the table and the wine waiter had disappeared for good. The dinner turned out to be an "all you can eat" buffet.
OK, the food was great but for 275 Euro at a 1:1 exchange rate!
The firework display was great and on New Year's Day, seats were being set out for a concert in the main courtyard. Exciting stuff, we wondered what was happening and my wife took a leaflet from a large pile. A very rude man in a suit snatched it from her and told her that this was private and she must leave! He turned out to be a director of the hotel and it seemed that the most public part of the hotel was now "out of bounds" whilst local guests were to be entertained to a classical concert. What a rude man and what a farce! He told us that this was no longer the hotel and that we should buy tickets. I wouldn't mind but we were paying £350 per night for a very small room that did not even have a mini bar!
Fantastic hotel, immaculately clean, wonderful location. Great if you're Spanish or German. If you're British and like to relax in T-Shirt and shorts (OK, not the knotted hanky!), expect to be treated as a second rate citizen and you won't be too disappointed.

Me, my partner and our then 11 month old baby girl, went to this hotel last Sept and it was amazing. The staff were all really nice and helpfull, they always made a fuss of our daughter. The food was lovely and also lots of variety. The rooms were nice and clean and the entertainment was really good. This is by far one of the best hotels and resorts i have stayed in, so good in fact, we are booked up again for this September!
The location of the hotel is superb, we never had to pay for taxis to go anywhere, everything is on this hotels doorstep. Even though the hotel is masive, it took me only a day to find my bearings. Its surprisingly very easy to find your way around the hotel. We also never had any problems getting a sun lounger. Would definately recommend this hotel

I stayed at this hotel with my husband and daughter and son in law and we had a great time there. From the moment you come up the drive this hotel looks impressive. The hotel is large (one of the largest in Europe we were told) but the rooms are based around courtyards so you never feel you are in a big hotel. The rooms are large and comfortable and the service is excellent. The grounds are incredible with an infinity pool and lots of other pools. The beach is just outside the back of the hotel and there are shops, bars and restaurants outside the front of the hotel.
The entertainment was superb - with tributes to Elvis, Frank Sinatra and Il Divo to name just a few. The staff in the bars are really helpful and friendly.
IWe booked for bed and breakfast and there was everything you could want on the breakfast buffett. In the evenings we dined at a Balinese restaurant, a Tapas restaurant and an Italian restaurant all just outside the hotel grounds. Or if you fancy take-away the hotel does a great pizza. It was a lovely break with temperatures around 70-75. I would definately recommend it, and hope to go again!

We stayed here for our honeymoon, it was the nicest hotel we have ever stayed in and will definitely be back.
There was so much to do. The food was brilliant, there was a great selection. The pool area was beautiful and we never had any problems finding a sunbed and we found the staff really friendly.
We can't wait to go back and we will be staying for 2 weeks next time.

This was by far the best hotel we have ever stayed in. The hotel is very impressive on arrival.
Staff very attentive took our luggage to room straight away. The restaurants are excellent with plenty of choice and the food is superb.
Rooms very clean and spacious. Pool area is really large with plenty of sunbeds and the grounds surrounding the hotel are beautiful.
Spa at hotel is wonderful and well worth a visit. Hotel is situated in a very upmarket area.
Can't wait to return.

The first impression of the hotel was wow! We had booked a family suite for 14nights with our two girls being 11yrs and 9yrs, the rooms were lovely with plenty of space!! But our first morning around the pool was a shock!!! Not one sun bed to be had anywhere, as the Germans obviously get up major early to save any beds near pools or in sun!!!
Food was very good but restaurants were so busy, this hotel has 1,200 rooms so we think the average guest amount is 3 - 4,000. We waited for up to 45mins for a drink in hotel bars and often order was wrong, waiters were very unfriendly except for one called Pedro, he was fab and ran around like a headless chicken once tipped. We all suffered upset stomach during our stay!!!
Entertainment was great, we would recommend this hotel but stress you visit out of school holiday time as the amount of children was unreal.
Our overall opinion is....... if you don't mind the impersonal touch, fighting for sunbeds, loads of spoilt brats, rude waiters, grab for breakfast or dinner... this is the hotel for you!!!
WE WOULD NOT GO BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!EVER!!!!

Stayed here for a week in June and a week was just not long enough. This was the nicest hotel I have ever stayed in as part of a package deal.
The grounds and pools are beautiful and well maintained. We never had any problems finding a sun bed. The spa is absolutely fabulous and well worth the 25 Euros for 4 hours.
Breakfast was good with a wide choice of food including cava some days! We didn't eat in any of the other restaurants so cannot comment on those.
We enjoyed the entertainment at the hotel, especially in the Brasserie bar downstairs which had 'tribute' acts on each night. Drinks were reasonably priced too.
The staff at the hotel were very pleasant and we had no problems at all.
We would definitely stay here again and will book for two weeks next time.
