Melia South Beach

Beautiful hotel! The views are amazing . great staff the service was TOP. I was there for my birthday and found in my room a very sweet note a bottle of cava and a slice of a delicious cake . Very thoughtful. Breakfast very nice also a lot of options to chose from. The only down side is that the toilet is open and it makes noises at night … i got scared a few times . For sure will visit again

Very nice place to visit next to Nikki Beach amd great amenities

Would love to give the hotel 5 stars because of the excellent child care and friendliness of staff. However , no one at this hotel actually takes the time to explain which restaurants are included which restaurants are open at which times …. At the end of the stay you are bombarded with a HUGE bill despite pre paying for breakfast and dinners… And if you like room service this is not the hotel for you because the hotel will not show up with extra towels , or food , or wake up calls or anything else you ask for .

The hotel was fantastic, the room , but in particolar the dinner.

Great location

Very friendly around the pool areas although too many towels os sun beds without people using them for most of the day

The hotel is modern and clean, great pools. Our room (406) was huge, cleaned every day, fresh towels etc.. Great spot at one end of the beach, which is a short walk across the hotel. Choice of 3 pools which includes an Adults only pool. Plenty of sun beds, although it was early October. Good buffet breakfast with wide selection. Staff very helpful. For some the music from Nikki Beach next door would be an issue, for others a nice vibe. A true 4* hotel and I would stay again. Only drawback for sunlovers is the amount of shade around the pools at varying times, although plenty of space to move around and chase it.

Cons: The breakfast hot buffet was not at all hot any of the mornings during our stay. We reported this to one of the waitresses who proceeded to go and dip her finger into the beans. If this wasn’t bad enough, we then never received any feedback and seemingly nothing was done as the hot buffet remained cold for the rest of our holiday. Further to this, the cakes were located in the outside part of the buffet, which every day, were covered in flies. These should be kept inside. Also, the churros were rock solid and inedible. The hand shower hose clip had broken so kept sliding down. We were unable to use this without holding it which was difficult when not wanting to wash hair daily. The pool bar was closed meaning the only available place to get lunch at the hotel was in the expensive a la crate restaurant. This was all big main meals (steak, salmon) with no place to get a lighter lunch. Wi-Fi did not reach up to our room (3rd floor). Coffee and tea is provided in the room however there is no milk cartons. We had to ask reception 3 times before any were bought up to our room. When they did, we only received 4 tiny pots. The sink plug did not work so we were unable to fill the sink. The shop next to reception was not open. There was no explanation at check in with regards to the 2 adjacent Melia hotels and what facilities we were able to use. It turns out access to the gym, indoor pool etc in both hotels is allowed for all guests. It appeared not many people were aware of the third pool to the side of the hotel as there was no signage. There were no information displays anywhere in the hotel for activities, entertainment etc. everything was via QR code. Pros: Good range of breakfast options. Hotel and room were clean and tidy. Staff were approachable and polite. Great location and sea view. Shame the Melia rooms only have a Juliette balcony. Easy to access rooms and buy drinks using the wristbands provided.
