Broncemar Beach Suites

The location and overall mood of the hotel were very good and pleasant. The entertainment team, known as the “Animation Team,” was professional and friendly. My daughter always wanted to participate in their programs! 😊 The staff in the kitchen and bar were friendly and maintained high standards of cleanliness. However, one negative point was that the man responsible for drinks at the snack bar was, unfortunately, impolite 😡

So me and my 11 year old and 6 year old stayed here in may (2024) it was our first ever holiday abroad and i can honestly say I couldnt have chosen a better hotel to stay in! I had previously emailed the hotel to ask if it was possible not to have a pool level room as my 6 year old has adhd and i was petrified she would run into the pool! The hotel said they couldnt promise a higher level room but would leave it on my file.....ilI had a higher lever room on arrival! The rooms are are lush! Extremely clean and quite spacious. The entertainment team were amazing!! Especially Luigi and Emma, they were always getting people involved in games throughout the day, one in particular was luigis magic capet!! The food was tidy, a great selection of fresh cooked food for everyone and always enough to offer. I have also booked to return to Broncemar for my 40th birthday next march with 3 extra guests!!

Room - Junior Suite I was looking forward to spending some time in the garden which had a balinese bed sun longer. I contacted the hotel 6 weeks prior to our stay and requested a sunny aspect, which they said they would accommodate, however our garden got no sun at all throughout the course of the day. The Junior Suites opposite got the sun all day, so it's 50/50 as to whether you'll get a room with any sunshine. Requested another room but was told the hotel was full. The garden itself was fine, though it wasn't appealing to sit out in the the shade in December. We spent most of our time outside if the hotel for this reason as were not ones to sit around a busy pool all day. The room itself was basic and in need of some tlc. Definitely not a 4 star as advertised on their website. However the cockroaches were the real low point. My daughter put her shoes on and a minute or two later took one off as she felt something inside, and a cockroach fell out! There was also a cockroach in a suitcase (that was kept off the ground for the duration of our stay) and climbed up my arm when I was packing! My daughter saw one in her bed and refused to go back to sleep in it after we made sure it was gone. We found around 12 cockroaches in our room over the course of our 6 night stay. Food - It's a standard buffet style restaurant. Plenty of choice, nothing amazing but you'll always find something to eat, though it was never hot. The chef cooking the omelettes on a morning has to be the most miserable man I've come into contact with. Entertainment - we watched one show and decided not to watch any more. The kids enjoyed the floating thing in the pool that you had to run across though. We didn't bother with the kids club. Beach - 5/10 minute walk and lovely calm, clear water, safe for the kids to play in. We did the glass bottom boat, saw barracuda and manta rays amongst many other fish. The kids did the inflatable water park. The 9 year old loved it. The 7 year old, not so much. They both enjoyed the sea lion experience at the marina too. Mini golf at the Barcelo hotel was also good fun. Restaurants - there are plenty within close proximity to the hotel. Many were British style cafe/pubs aren't our thing. But we did eat at the restaurant on the marina a few times which is part of the Barcelo hotel. The food was excellent. We were half board at our hotel, but ate out for most meals after a few times in the hotel restaurant. All in all, I wouldn't return to Broncemar Suites.
