Villa Luz Design & Art Hotel

We booked the hotel only a couple of weeks before going but looking at the photos and all the facilities like the games room, beach bar and entertainmet, we thought this looked great. The games room and the beach probably made us book it. For a start, we flew to Alicante airport with no idea that the hotel was 140km away from Alicante airport. Valencia airport is much closer? Speaking to other guests, we also paid £350 for the transport which was over double than other families. Weather hasn't been great but that's the risk coming in October. Hotel is very clean with no flies or smells etc. please read.. If you are all inclusive, you WILL have to PAY for the games room AND the bar on the beach. They DO NOT tell you this on booking and we thought everything was in. If we knew that we had to pay for the beach bar and games room, we wouldn't have come. However, there is no option to book "ultra all inclusive on booking" this entitles you to the games room and beach bar for free. They make you believe that everything's included on the website and photos and it's not. We booked 7 days and didn't arrive until 1.40am on Friday and we go home in the early hours of Thursday morning meaning we lose well over a day of our holiday. When we arrived I couldn't get my booking information as they wouldn't let me sign into the WiFi without me booking in?! So this isn't great when you've dragged your kids round for 8 hours through the night and can't get your booking confirmation up on your phone. Rooms very clean but basic. There isn't enough chairs for us all to sit outside. Plus you all have to sleep in the same room. There was no water in the fridge but there is a kettle and hot drinks and a few cans of cold drink but they will NOT top up your fridge again during your stay so make sure you bring water. Sadly again, you have to be "ultra all inclusive" for this. We didn’t have a great room with a great view considering a lot of rooms are empty. We have visited several magic hotels and all the others provided a packed lunch or something to eat after all of the travelling on arrival. This is the worst one of them all for this when you arrive. The food is "ok". It does seem to cater more for Spanish. It's nice to be taken to your table though and asked what drink you would like when sat down. The foods don't look very appetising but some dishes are nice but my 2 children struggled to find things they liked. The restaurant is open all day but most of the food is out all day and dry. We ended up finding a shop and buying some Nutella as my children have autism and they didn’t have beans or anything to go on their breakfast. The snack vans with burgers don't open until 4pm which I think is far too late. They do toasted sandwiches, chips, hotdogs and pink burgers but this doesn’t open until 4pm. You can help yourself to ice cream from the restaurant all day. Entertainment wise, there is not a lot for older children. I will say this as nicely as possible. The

The hotel was very clean. The staff were very accommodating especially Juan and Gloria. Both of them went out of their way to make my disabled sister and family feel really welcome and met our needs. The only improvement would be to have more activities for teens.

The games room and the beach probably made us book it. For a start, we flew to Alicante airport with no idea that the hotel was 1.5 hours away from the airport. Valencia airport is much closer? Speaking to other guests, we also paid £80 each way per person (x4) for the transport which was over double than other families. Weather hasn’t been great but that’s the risk coming in October.

They do toasted sandwiches, hotdogs and pink burgers. You can help yourself to ice cream from the restaurant. Entertainment wise, there is not a lot for older children. We struggled with somewhere to sit during the day to keep them entertained . There is only one table tennis table. Dinner doesn’t start until 7.30pm and this can go on until 10.30/11 ish. Meaning that night time entertainment doesn’t start until around 11pm. Far too late for most children. Other than the pool in the day,

Great hotel with amazing staff. Super comfortable beds. Close to the beach. Huge buffet with lots of options. Very family friendly our kid had the best time. Pool area was great with small pool for the kids and 2 jacuzzi and slides. Clean! Friendly staff. And lots of shops and restaurants close by as well as bus to Gandia centre.

We stayed for 10 days at the Villa luz, and enjoyed it immensely. The hotel was clean, the staff were friendly and there were lots of great things for families and kids. The pools were loads of fun, with waterslides as well, and a very short walk to the beach. The food at the hotel was delicious, and you can customize your stay from bed and breakfast, to fill all inclusive. I recommend half board so you can go enjoy and explore restaurants nearby as well. Easily located a short drive from Valencia, as well as other small towns nearby to explore.

Stayed here for the past week, this hotel was kept immaculate. Our children loved it. The food was very tasty and varied, plenty for everyone. Premium spirits from the bar, had such an amazing time, the weather was lovely for October. Will definitely visit again ☺️

Nice hotel and kept very clean. All the staff are friendly and cannot do enough for you. The food was varied and very good. The drinks were premium drinks and the Estrella lager very nice. A special mention to Sandra and Victor the bar staff and Ryunko behind reception. A great holiday and would visit again.

5 stars for the service: reception, cleaning of the rooms, food, organisation. 0 stars for the bar on the beach for annoying and too loud music. In the evening you would want to spend a chilllout time with your family, instead the ears are attacked with aggressive Spanish rock. Seems like the bar service people want to keep the people away from that place. The toilet near the beach bar also scary, stinking, no toilet paper, pooped all over. 0 stars for activities for adults. Nothing available.

Very nice service and hotel facilities great I recommend it to stay there and close to the beach and shops . There is option to book rooms with private jacuzzi’s . They have 3 pools and 2 jacuzzi outside. Good was not spiced but plain mostly. Desert was great. Breakfast was great
