Portonovo & the nearby Sanxenxo are almost totally a Spanish Resort.. But that should not stop Non-Spanish speaking people off visiting this wonderful place.. It has everything anyone could want.. great restaurants and a night-life without an equal.. everything is here if you look.. and the Hotel Canelas is a very good hotel as a base to explore the area.. situated on the outskirts of Portonovo.. Its a short walk from the lovely Canelas Beach (Blue Flag) and the town of Portonova itself.. the Hotel is a little Gem with the most attentive staff of any hotel i've stayed in.. the rooms and communal areas are excellent and cleaned daily to a very high standard.. We stayed on a Half Board package and opted for breakfast and lunch most days.. the breakfast was very good with all the normal
items.. the lunch offered a seletion of local dishes which were well cooked & presented.. the staff in the restaurant were so attentive & efficient without any faults whatsoever..
The Reception staff (Day & Night) were always helpful and so Professional.. And the maid service to the rooms was second to none.. There are some things that might be a problem to some people.. 1.. The hotel's pool which while being of a very high order is situated on the other side of a quite busy main road - this wasn't a problem for us but for people with small children this should be a consideration.. 2.. The TV in the room is Totally Spanish.. an addition of just Sky Or BBC News would be Bonus.. 3.. The Wi-Fi is very hit and miss , it works ok for a day then takes 2 days off, not good and should be address by the Hotel..
I Think That I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.. do yourself a big favour and tried it.. I'am confident you won't be dissapointed..
