“Fantastic, the best vacation ever cumming”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 August 2010

I was with my wife and my children of 8 and 11 years and enjoyed the stay. From the reception, very friendly and efficient, through cleaning, simply flawless, even the meals were exquisite, varied and of excellent quality. Just 10 minutes from the beach walk, has a free shuttle train that piece by the late hours of going to the beach. Pools good and clean. Room large enough for four beds, perhaps in need of some minor repair. 5 floors with lifts itself sufficient fast. Anyway, all fantastic and excellent hotel for families! But best of all is the superb animation team of the Hotel Carabela. For them I want to go back there!

“Lovely Hotel. Viva Espana.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 July 2010

We stayed here for a week mid-May. The weather was excellent and you didn't have to rush out to the pool at 9am to get a sunbed. You could wander out at 11am and still get a sunbed, people tended to sunbathe later and the swimming pool area was still very busy at 7/8pm.

It only took 50mins to get there from Seville Airport (I think our taxi driver knew a shortcut!)

The buffet food at breakfast and dinner was excellent with a good choice. There were themed evenings i.e. Italian one night and Seafood another. If you sat outside for dinner there was a very peaceful and relaxing ambience.

There were quite a few children there, we had a 10 year old who only wanted to read and swim. The Hotel was a paradise for him.

We went down to the beach on the mini train (it is walkable) 3 times and found the beach to be very large and really quite busy, but if you go down during siesta time it is deserted as it is mostly spanish down there. My only gripe with the beach was they didn't seem to tidy the area very well - there was rubbish around and tables weren't wiped etc. My husband didn't like the fact they served his beer in a whiskey tumbler! I would definitely rate this area as 3*. It is a good base for the beach however as you can come back and clean up then lie on the beds without being all sandy. We didn't eat at the beach so couldn't comment but we found a rather basic looking restaurant on the beach, none of the waiters spoke any English and they didn't have a menu but we managed to communicate somehow and had the tastiest sardines ever washed down with a cold beer (we went back on other days!) There aren't many places to go to eat in Matalascañas and not many shops but if you want a relaxing holiday with good food we would recommend the Hotel Carabela.

Hola Louga2,

Antes de nada queremos aclarar que el hotel ha estado cerrado por reformas estos primeros días de mayo, hasta el jueves 10. Por lo que no entendemos como puede decir que se ha hospedado con nosotros dentro de estas fechas.

Dejando de lado este punto, que creemos es bastante revelador. Lamentamos muchísimo su desazón y que se haya ido de nuestro establecimiento con esta impresión. A lo largo del último año se han realizado numerosas reformas en nuestras instalaciones, un hecho que no ha cesado, puesto que seguimos centrados en mejorarlas. Nos esforzamos para ofrecer una oferta de comida variada y de calidad siempre. Nos encantaría poder determinar mejor que pudo fallar con su estancia, pero como ya hemos mencionado, al estar cerrados durante el periodo que usted afirma haber estado, no contamos con ninguna queja que poder usar de referencia. Le invitamos a que vuelva a nuestro establecimiento cuando esté abierto y operativo. A partir del 10 de mayo, tras estos días de parada para ejecutar nuevas reformas.

No podemos garantizar que no cometamos errores, pero si que de todas las estancias recibidas en estos meses (una media de 1850 mensuales), no hemos recibido hoja de reclamaciones ni quejas generalizadas, al contrario. Nuestros clientes acostumbran a marcharse a casa satisfechos y, de hecho, muchos repiten con nosotros cada año.

Tenemos cuestionarios a disposición del cliente, Oficina de atención al cliente, personal de dirección 24 horas a su disposición, lo cual nos turba más al ver que ninguno tuvimos conocimiento de sus quejas con nuestro establecimiento.

Así como le invitamos a que cuando le sucedan ese cúmulo de inconvenientes lo ponga en conocimiento de los responsables del establecimiento ya que no solo en este, si no en todos, su opinión nos ayuda a mejorar.

Por ello y para que no sea tarde y podamos paliar su amargo sabor nos ponemos una vez más a su servicio para solucionar cualquier error del que nadie estamos a salvo. Por nuestra parte le garantizamos que seguiremos esforzándonos para mejorar y ofrecer el mejor servicio y atenciones si decide repetir con nosotros.

Saludos desde la Costa
