Bull Costa Canaria & Spa - Only Adults

Our go to Winter location based on three previous visits. We have stayed in the Pool View Bungalows on each occasion. Plenty of space with your own terrace area. The staff are very smiley and helpful all around the Hotel. The well laid out buffet restaurant is easy to navigate even at peak times. There is a outside area by the lower level entrance. There can be a queue here to get an available table. The food quality & variety will suit all tastes and differing clientel of european demographic. An added advantage is The Spa with a sauna, steam room and lots of whirlpool features. Only a short ride from the airport. There are buses (No 30) to the capital & Maspolomas nearby and taxis are cheap and plentyful. The Hotel is Adults only and they operate a Half Board or All inclusive basis. Be prepared to put a few pounds on just on the Half Board. San Agustin is small, with a nice beach, and relatively quiet. If you want Bars, Clubs & racket try somwhere else further South. We met some very nice people, (next bungalow) from Belgium. You know who you are.

My actual mark for this hotel would be 3 1/2 . On arrival was greeted in reception by a friendly , professional lady who gave me all the information required about the hotel in a prompt fashion . Room was very clean , comfortable bed and spacious bathroom , only criticism was instead of a proper tea spoon there was something resembling half a lollipop stick . On to the restaurant nicely laid out , waiter was on hand almost straight away to serve the drinks , was disappointed with the salad options only the basics and food was in very small containers so at times things you wanted weren't available as got emptied fairly quickly , the meat carved by the chef although not the best cuts of meat were well cooked , desserts were nice and plentiful. Fruit options like salad were limited , only hotel I have ever stayed at where I never saw any melon for the whole week , next morning on to the breakfast very busy , not a comfortable experience and I have to say worst cerial choices I can ever remember a couple of processed sugary options I have never seen before and a sort of hybrid muesli/ cornflake sugary concoction in 2 of the containers the rest of the breakfast I would describe as average although the ladies cooking the eggs were quick and friendly , spoke to a gentleman on reception with my concerns over the poor cerial options he took my details and said one of the management team would get in contact within 2 days , that didn't happen which is disappointing as I wasn't demanding to see someone but if you make a promise you should follow up on that . The entertainment was better than I expected , singers in the night bar and a live music option in pool bar , excellent bar service with branded spirits and pour as much as you like with all Inc. Gym was excellent for a hotel . Pool area with sunbeds looked claustrophobic so I went to the garden area which was nice and relaxing and a very good location. The sunbed tagging system wasn't something I liked but most people seemed in favour so fair enough . Just one more point I would like to make read a few reviews saying bar staff favoured German customers, I didn't find that to be the case so don't be put off by those comments

Before I write my review, I have to take James S from Paphos to task. His January review is an insult to many of the holidaymakers and effectively mocks those who are less agile than him. At his age I was playing tennis three times a week, badminton twice a week and golf regularly. For various reasons, none of which are his business, through no fault of my own I now have severe mobility issues at the age of 75. However, my wife and I holiday as often as we can and, although envious of people like James, who are fit and healthy, we thoroughly enjoy life. This hotel is absolutely superb. It is spotlessly clean everywhere, the staff are without exception fantastic and the (free!!) spa is unbelievable. I wasn't over-impressed with the food at lunch and dinner, albeit there was a lot of choice, but I am not a fan of buffet meals. Nevertheless I was never hungry and the breakfast spread was amazing. I am not sure who ate the broccoli though! The pool bar is excellent and the food there at lunchtime is really good. We didn't expect entertainment so it came as a pleasant surprise. Some of it was excellent, some a little less so, but to have any entertainment at all was a bonus. And as stated above, Vanessa was very efficient and welcoming. The alternative entertainment at the pool bar was sometimes worth a visit. We will be going back to this hotel, probably more than once. And finally, to James S, I hope his words don't come back to haunt him. It would be awful if, in twelve years' time, other guests at a hotel he is staying in look down on him as some sort of inferior being if he ever becomes infirm.

Beautiful Hotel. Five of us came for my friends 60th birthday and had a fab time! A simple but elegant hotel, tranquil and peaceful but very friendly. The clientele were very much older than we were but it was so lovely to mix with everyone. The food was amazing! Very good quality! Loved the pool bar food especially! The staff were so friendly. Couldn’t really fault this hotel! 100% recommended! Also they made my friends 60th very special without having to mention it to them.

We been a number of times to this lovely hotel and often taken friends and family with us, who always been just as impressed. The resort is a quiet and pleasant place to visit with good bus connections to other parts of the island. The hotel, which is superb, is set in stunning grounds. Rooms are generously sized and well cleaned. The food and drinks are excellent. The staff are wonderful too. Overall, a very comfortable adults only hotel that is well suited, but not exclusively, to a more mature age range. The hotel has everything that you could want all in one place, including a lovely Spa. We particularly like the sunbed tag system where you reserve your sunbed for the duration of your holiday - we only wish that other hotels would do the same thing, as it saves a lot of bother or hassle!

The hotel is very good indeed. There is much to love, it is for over 16's only, it is spotless, it has reserved sunbeds so no early morning arguments! View from sea view room was lovely. The staff are generally amazing like Vanessa in the lounge bar who makes you feel valued as a customer (she remembered our drinks and was very attentive to ensure we were fine in the lounge). I wish the reception staff were a bit more friendly as we have been many times but no acknowledgement of that or even 'have a good trip home etc' when leaving, just pay your bill and goodbye. Pool bar is great, so is the entertainment and the activities on offer throughout the day. Love the location for nice walks along the sea front. Did not use the spa but reports were very good from others we spoke to. The area is fairly quiet but not far to the busier centres and bus service is great.
