Delicious Buffet

The breakfast buffet was a highlight of my stay! It had a vast selection of fresh fruits, pastries, and local dishes that were simply good. Each morning felt like a special treat, setting a positive tone for the day.

Great Pool Area

The swimming pool was a wonderful escape, with its crystal-clear water and perfect temperature. I spent hours relaxing by the poolside, enjoying the serene atmosphere while reading my favorite book.

Spacious and Modern

My room was impressively spacious, designed with modern decor and equipped with everything I needed. The high-pressure shower was especially refreshing after a day under the sun.

My stay at the Melia hotel in Zahara was quite contrasting. While I had an amazing experience with the staff at the kids' club, the initial check-in and dining experiences were frustratingly slow and chaotic. The rooms were decent, but the overall disorganization during our meal and check-in really impacted my family's enjoyment. The hotel does have beautiful beach access and a nice pool area, so there were certainly highlights during our time.

I had a fantastic time at the hotel, primarily due to the amazing staff who genuinely connected with my children. The location is perfect, with stunning beach access and a tranquil atmosphere. However, the check-in process was a bit slow, and if you're not a fan of loud entertainment, the lively evening activities might not be your cup of tea. Overall, it's a great place for families looking for fun and relaxation.

While the hotel has some appealing aspects like direct beach access and a fun pool area for families, my stay was marred by overwhelming noise from entertainment activities that disrupted our peace at night. Additionally, the dining experience left much to be desired with slow service and undercooked meals. The staff was polite, but the overall management seemed lacking, which impacted our overall enjoyment.

My experience at this hotel felt more stressful than relaxing. While the beach access was wonderful and the pool area looked appealing, the dining situation and service left much to be desired. The staff were friendly enough, but we faced long waits and inadequate communication during our meals. Overall, this could be a better spot if the dining experience and service issues were improved.

I recently spent a wonderful family vacation at the Melia Zahara, where we enjoyed beautiful beach access and a tranquil atmosphere. The kids loved the pool area, which was perfect for family fun, and we appreciated the great local dining options nearby. However, our arrival experience was less than ideal, and there were a few hiccups with dining service that could be improved. Overall, I would recommend it for a family getaway, especially considering the variety of kid-friendly activities available.
