Apartments where basic but clean didn't get room cleaned and stayed there for a week this was after complaining a couple times, worst part was the cheeky,arrogant woman on reception who demanded 150 euro cash on arrival! As we where leaving early morning we where told money... more

when we first arrived the room was hot and uncomfortable to stay in. When we had booked the room we was promised a television, safe to keep our possessions in and a bed, but to our disbelief we had to rent out a television for 27 euros just for a week! The safe was easy to... more

Firstly i will say 11 of us went on a stag party and stayed in this place so you can really imagine how poor it was if a stag party say its poor. These apartments are at best a 1 star development, on arrival we found the only pool in Benidorm to be drained!!! The rooms are... more

Cheap but Nasty from Young76
I stayed at these apartments during September 2003 as part of a girlie holiday. There were 8 of us in total and we had 2 apartments, one on the 13th floor and one on the 14th. I am writing this review a bit late but to confirm the opinions of other travellers. The apartments are very basic and quite small for 4 people. Of an evening the passage ways of the hotel are in total darkness. I have a fear of lifts so I would often take the stairs and I found the trip up to my room terrifying as you had to climb the stairs in darkness before finding the light switch which only lit the stairs beneath you. There are many rules that you have to follow when using the pool. You are not allowed to place your sunlounger over the white line around the side of the pool and you are not allowed to take inflatable sun loungers into the pool. On leaving the hotel, my friends and I were denied our deposits because we did not empty the bins in our rooms!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is a lovely little bar across the road from the apartments where you can buy yummy bacon sandwiches for breakfast. I returned to Benidorm 2 years later in 2005 and stayed at The Belroy Palace which is a much better class of hotel with a good central location. I would not stop here again- the place looks like Nelson Mandela House (from Only Fools and Horses)!!!
Very Happy Here from carberrya
My partner, myself and 3 and a half yr old stayed here for 1 week 9/16 May 2007. These apartments are basic, but, had everything we needed for a self catering holiday. We wanted the freedom to go out or stay in when we felt like. We had maid service 4 times in the week, twice we did not require all towels (having brought our own). The childrens pool was great (but cold) our little one was in the big pool with us with her blow up toys (no problem). The guard was good, aware of everything and spoke to everyone. I personally think the pool should be open earlier and close later as the pool did not open until 11.am and closed at 6pm. Our little one sat on balcony from around 9.30 waiting for the guard, and some days it was 100 degrees, we would of liked a dip in the pool before getting ready to go out after trying to keep the little one in the shade. Instead some nights we went to the beach at 6.pm and stayed till 9.pm (yes it was still hot). If you arrive after 7.30pm you have to pick up your keys from the Alpha apartments (best getting a cab for about 10 euros return). There is a bar called the Mad Monk next to the front main door and they more than welcome you to sit there while one of you go for the keys (do not forget your 60 euro deposit as I did). All in all we enjoyed our cheap and cheerful time here. This was our 3rd time in Benidorm, but 1st staying here. Our last time was at a 4star all inclusive which was great but you do not have the freedom with a child. We will be going back here. The indoor and outdoor markets are on the doorstep, as well as the bars, and the great food in Wendys the chinese restaurant (over the road). Say hello to Alan and family at the Mad Monk from us. Hope this helps with your decision. Have a great holiday.
Dont Bother from shazcrink
I stayed at these apartments in october 2006 with my partner. We were placed on the 22nd floor in a studio.It was fairly clean but we got bit terribly from sleeping on the sofabed. every morning between 4am and 6am the binmen empty the bins from the sol pelicanos/ocas (hotel directly in front) we watched them deliberately push the huge skip/bins into the walls and laughing as the noise echo'd around and obviously got louder as the noide level rose by the 22nd floor. There were only 2 lifts which were very slow but while we were there only one was working. Concluding this review, if you do want a cheap and chearful holiday then by all means book this accommodation but please book an apartment and take plenty of bug spray for your room or stay in old benidorm!
had a great time from pumagal
We are a group of 4 women who for the past 3 years have stayed at these apartments. We have had no problems at all with the staff or reps. We found the apartments to be clean with plenty of bed linen and the cooking facilities more than adequate. On one visit the power was being switched off through the night which meant the lifts were not working but maintenance staff were on hand to escort you to your door with a smile. The pool is not open in march so i cannot comment on it but we have booked to go next year again in march and indeed i am booked with a different party in july. It is not the ritz but at an easily affordable price what do people expect.
not as bas as the reviews i have read from ANDREWDIXON
just returned from these apartments and after reading the reviews posted on this web site i was fearing the worst our party consisted of 2 adults and 2 children 15 and 7 we were greeted at alicante airport by our pre booked taxi resorthoppa.com so smooth and so simple then the journey to the apartment we arrived at approx 16.30 and check in was so smooth £150 deposit to cover breakages paid via credit card and fully refunded all english speaking staff 6th floor apartment nice view of the pool and just about see the sea through the blocks of hotels paid for the safety deposit box 1.50 euro per day with a 3 euro deposit fully refunded 1 bedroom apartment small but we squeezed 4 people in next time i would book a 2 bedroom 1 bed consists of 1 bedroom ( 2 single beds) sitting room with sofa bed and pull out bed small kitchen incorporated all untensils included lifts are slow but whats the rush ( 3 lifts in total) good bar as you go out of the entrance the mad monk good food and good beer supermarket just 2 mins walk away would i go again ? the answer is yes resonable accomodation at a resonable price nice pool and the sunloungers cost 2 euro a day and you can leave them with a towel on and thet will be there when you return but i just chilled on my towel good news night life 5 mins away the only down side is you will here the rubbish being taken away in the morning and the sun loungers being put out at the hotels next door, but also so will they and they most probably paid 3 times what you paid
Holiday from hell from A TripAdvisor Member
My wife and I booked into Acqarium11 for 1week and walked into the holiday from hell.The appartment was filthy,cooking area primitive and as we soon found out beds and bedding filthy.I tried to find a rep but could not.The caretaker was not to be found and office staff surly and unwilling to help.All staff professed to "No comprendez Anglaise"We managed to get a cleaner next day who did not comprendez anglaise and her answer to my basic Spanish was to mutter and walk away.My wife found dirty corn plasters in her bed.Next I was stricken with Gastro-enteritis followed by a heavy chest infection which I .as a retired staff nurse diagnosed ass Pleurisy which was later confirmed by a doctor when I arrived home.A obtained antibiotics and Immodium which helped a little but still left me incapacitated.The staff refused to move us or help us to get an early flight home.We had to live in misery and squalour until we left.We were accosted by a woman who offered us massage 15 euros .Other services not for us on a sliding scale and of a sexual nature.I looked up the internet adress on her card and found a dubious site in Holland.On leaving a large queue was held at the reception desk trying to get their refunds 60 euros but the two women who should have checked the rooms lounged in chairs facing away from and pointedly ignoring all.A few sharp words from me in Spanish got a grudging response and my refund.Our luggae was in an insecure lockup out of sight at the back of the hotel and we all had to drag it up a steep slope to the bus.At no time could we get a tour rep and I for one will never return to Acqarium11. The dump should be shut down and deleted from travel agents lists
what a dump from A TripAdvisor Member
Hi i am back from spending 2 weeks at this place. There were 4 of us in a cramped unspacious 1 bedroom apartment. It was unclean and the lifts took forever. The place was full of spanish people that were ignorent and stole of you any opportunity they had. The beds were rock hard and the sheets and towels were changed once in the whole two weeks that we were there. The pool was a disgrace, you have a mini hitler woman on guard that will not allow you any of your own drinks into the pool area or food. The sunbeds you have to pay for which are 2 Euros....... If you are noisey after 24.00 hrs you are issued with a warning which can lead to eviction. So please if you are planning to go to this hotel, then please dont as YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ENJOY YOURSELF. Oh and by the way there is a female security guard at night to the locked door who in glasgow terms is "a nippy sweety" Please do not stay here as it comes with a health warning!!!
Never again from A TripAdvisor Member
Just back from Benidorm,liked the places but these apartments were horrible,clean towls once a week,have to pay 2 euros for a sun lounger,no inflatables in pool. Came back one night from being out the front door of the apartments was shut,know-one had told us we had a key to get the door open,on our last night was left terrified as we were having an early night as we ahd to be out our room for 10a.m,got woken up to people trying doors up above us,people screaming get out get away,at las a sucurity WOMAN started walking along the corridors. Did not like the idea at night coming off the lifts when dark you had to find the light switch to light up thw whole corridor,so unsafe. I would deffinatly not recommend this apartment to anyone. I am only 18yrs old went with my boyfriend,loved it but hated it when i knew i had to return to that dump of a place.
Never again from A TripAdvisor Member
Just got back from 7 days at the Aquarium II Apartments, never again. On arrival we had to walk 15 minutes away to get the key as they are closed after 7.30pm, and when we got in my wife had to clean grease off the floor by the kitchen sink. There was supposed to be a washing machine, but nothing. The pool opened at 11am and shut approximatelly 7-7.30pm and you were constantly being watched. You pay to use the sunbeds, but if you leave them they stack them up again. You boiled the kettle on the stove which took 35 mins on average, the lift up took on average 15 mins to arrive. And staff on checkout time who look at you like you were dirt. NEVER, NEVER AGAIN
basic and short staffed from malkmer
Stayed in Acuarium II apartments for one week from May to the first week in June and was glad to see the back of them.The apartments have double locks on them but this did not prevent my wifes new running shoes from going missing two days after we arrived then food going missing on the fifth day.We took our two sons and after two days of constantly washing them etc..the towels and bed linen required changing so we asked the very rude maids for fresh ones and were told no.Reception is never occupied and to sit at the pool you have to pay for everything,loungers,tennis and you cant use any inflatables in the pool.Also noted that the brochure showed a pool photo from another hotel,the pool here is very small and not a quarter of the size of the pool in the brochure photo.Local people live in the apartments and any noise after 24.00 will not be tolerated and some residents were evicted on my stay.The lifts are very small and take an eternity to arrive.On the date of departure we had to vacate the apartments for 10.00a.m and our luggage was put in a car lock up under the hotel at the side with no security watching over them.Cheap place to stay but at a cost.Wouldnt stay again rent free.Nice weather though.
