Jan 2012 - Just arrived back from Gardenia Park the hotel is very clean but in need of a refurbishment. The staff are very friendly and the cleaners work exceptionally hard. The real let down is the food it is really really awful out of 10 days the food was hottish 3 days. The desserts are worse than awful there... More

We stayed here in January 2012 so it was off season, and that should probably be taken into consideration as during high season I expect we might have had a different experience, e.g. more facillities available such as the indoor pool/jacuzzi, and more young people around! As it was, we were prepared for the 'Spanish pensioners' and average food having... More

Stayed here in September for a week, the best thing about this hotel is the rooms they were very clean and the gardens are lovely. but that's about it, the entertainment was rubbish, the food was absolutely disgusting, after 2 days of eating there or rather picking bits n pieces that seemed edible we both ended up with bad stomachs...

A couple of days in to the holiday, they started relaying the patio slabs around the pool which was extremely noisy, this lasted... More

Spanish pensioners have the run of the hotel as they get 2 weeks per year free to stay at the hotel. They eat like pigs as though they have never seen food and are ignorant. We had an altercation with a man and woman and they were so ignorant but in the end they knew that they were wrong but... More

2011, first time back in Spain since 1968 and what a difference. The Gardenia Park holiday was all-inclusive and the hotel was great. Perhaps someone previously disliked a meal, as I did. You just bin it and try again for a meal that takes your appetite. There is plenty of lovely salad dishes and about 5/6 cooked choices for lunch... More
