Just come back from a weeks stay in the Helios Hotel Almunecar. We did not have any complaints whatsoever the Hotel was very comfortable, good food, and friendly staff. This Hotel is an ideal spot for people who like to walk as you have a very long promenade both ways, Hotel right on the sea front with all amenities near,... More

We decided to try Saga for the first time and booked for a week in December at the Helios. We found that the hotel was generally pretty good, staff were very friendly and the room was clean, large and comfortable. The hotel was not full at this time of year and so there were no problems with queueing for meals... More

I was very disappointed with my holiday here after reading the mainly good reports on TripAdvisor. I have marked it as average as the Staff were always friendly and helpful and the rooms clean and pleasant. What spoilt it for myself and my partner was the eating facilities. If you did not arrive at the dining room, which was always... More

Having tried Saga for the first time we selected a week at the Helios in Almunecar. As we arrived at the hotel one feels instinctively something is wrong. The building itself is very pleasant, in places, with hints of art deco and large airy bedrooms each with balconies and en suite bathrooms, albeit dated they were reasonably clean. The problem...

My husband and I travelled with Saga for a weeks stay in Hotel Helios which turned out to be very disappointing.

The location is great, a good safe area and very pretty, no beggers, don't expect golden sands though the sand is black. This was a budget holiday with Saga, we opted... More

Travelled with Saga Holidays. Would definitely visit this hotel again, and found it to be one of the cleanest and brightest we have ever stayed in. The old town, is just a short walk away, and the bars in the plaza were really good value, and very friendly. One bar in particular, the waiter named Juan went out of his... More

We stayed for 3 nights in the hotel. We were happy with the room, it was basic but very clean and the beds were comfy. All the rooms have sea facing balconies which give good views. The roof top terrace is nice and was always quiet when we went up. There is a large swimming pool and a smaller "basking"... More

The Helios could be a good hotel. It has an excellent location, the bus into town stops almost outside the door, the food is more than adequate, the restaurant staff are exceptionally helpful and friendly, and it has an excellent Saga rep. But then there is the NOISE level and the explosive manager. ( NOTE These comments are based on... More
