My wife and I stayed at La Bobadilla for 6 nights (4th to 9th Sep) and treated my son and his new wife to join us for a honeymoon vacation (4th to 8th Sep). During this period the hotel grounds including the entire pool area and outdoor eating spaces were plagued by wasps. As a result, what was meant to be a relaxing week turned into a nightmare particularly for my son and his wife. On one occasion they even had to call members of staff to have a hornet removed from their room after which they kept the doors to their patio closed for the rest of the stay. On a number of occasions, we were made aware that the area around the hotel was suffering the same increase of wasp infestation and despite professional services to remove them from the hotel grounds they were not being very successful. Apparently, and more disconcerting, we were informed that this is an annual problem only this year was particularly bad since there had been little rain in the area. The hotel is magnificent and the staff polite and extremely helpful and were it not for the wasps this would have been a delightful stay. However, we spent a lot of money and had we been informed prior to our stay that there was such a problem we could have made alternative arrangements. Clearly, from a commercial perspective, that is not what the hotel would have wanted but surely that would have been the right thing to have done?

The rooms are quite nice and the food is excellent. Maybe a duvet wouldn't go amiss but overall we were very happy with the service and had our best meal in a week in Spain. The breakfast is generous and varied and was a mix of hot and cold dishes. Dinner was sublime - the scallop and fruit salad was excellent, while the sage and butter and ricotta and spinach ravioli was very tasty. The pork steak was mouth watering. I definitely will eat here and visit again.

Stayed at this hotel on a Travel Department ”Highlights of Andalucia” Tour. Would recommend they seek somewhere else as there are significant issues especially with the food. The offerings gave the impression that the hotel was working on a low budget, the food was of a poor quality and limited choice. Once it was gone, it was gone! There was little evidence of food being replenished and some of the dishes were inedible: a stringy beef stew one evening and a revolting pumpkin soup another. Very, very disappointing, the worst food I have tasted on a Travel Department tour. Surly woman on reception who rarely smiled; a real shame as the hotel itself is spotless and comfortable. Too remote, would suggest Travel Department look at alternative locations in future.
