I am surprised to see the good reviews for this hotel on here. I wont be long on it. Location is good that it is close to the beach (have to walk 10 minutes to be able to cross the closed off area). Cleanliness is ok and room we stayed in was biggish but dark so make sure you get the upper floor ones.
Staff was however incredibly morbid, rude, unhelpful, and somehow seemed to be a in a race to win the title of 'who can be the rudest to the customer today'. We were appalled at their lack of interest of being civil. They seemed to be a lot more friendly to the Spanish tourists (one of us speaks fluent spanish but seemed not to be important for this). None of them spoke English, not a problem since i am good at pantomime. Oh and they will ask you to call your own taxi if you need one. And if you want a fanta, they will ask you if you want a fanta lemon, and on a 'yes' they will tell you they dont have it. Odd!
The price was OK for august. Breakfast was dried up white bread, some chorizo, and bad orange juice, admittedly very good coffee, served with an unfriendly grunt that could curdle the milk. Bon Appetite if you can see the bon at all. Evenings there is noone and nothing to do in the hotel which made it feel like a ghost town. If you want to have a drink, head to the bar of the hotel next door called Dos Mares, stunningly decorated and inhabited with better service, the best mojitos i have had a for a long time. In fact, while you are there, just book a room and stay there.
Overall a hilarious experience where you can recite the Fawlty Towers attidue of Dulce Nombre staff all the way back home but certainly dont want to repeat it the second time. No sucking lemons for me this time.

we chose this location based on proximity to windsurfing and kiteboarding. The room was basic; no frills. You need a car if you stay here as it is a 10-15 minute ride into Tarifa. the location is very convenient to the windsurfing however. the hotel has a nice pool. However, staff are not very friendly and cabs are not straightforward.

We wanted two nights near the ferry to tangiers with parking. Some of the hotels in town were said to be noisy with no parking and some of those along the beach would only take week long bookings so we ended up here booking on the net 6 months ahead.
It was easy to find. Reception was welcoming and they were expecting us. The rooms were on the small side but had recently been refitted and thus were modern. We also had a balcony, which we picniced on one night and watched the sun set over the sea. The room was clean.
There was a pool and a tennis court for the active. The hotel was not far from the beach although it did not look like you walk there easily and its a windsurfing beach rather than a swimming beach
The hotel had a restaurant but it didnt seem to be open. (end of season). There was another restaurant 100m down the road. Although the guy on reception spoke excellent english not all the others did. It semed to be family run bisuness. Breakfast was basic but adequate and they did accomodate our early start one morning to catch the ferry after we managed to get around the language differences.
A pleasant place to stay.
Tarifa was about 5 mins drive away.

Everything was great! The night staff, considering we turned up with 1 of us disabled, went out of thier way to be acomodating, great place, prices, rooms, view. breakfast is sufficient. Go There!
