    The double standard room we got is not very big. Changing buildings for the swimming pool was not too comfortable.

    Perfect location, super comfortable beds, very nice restaurant and super nice staff. Bathroom was beautiful, too! A lot of pleasant courtyards, shared living rooms and nice swimming pool area.

    Everything. Just a perfect stay. Beautiful rooftop pool, wonderful, spacious room, lovely meal in the restaurant, idyllic setting, amazing staff. El Rocio is a fascinating place. Next time we come, I hope to book a room with a terrace.

    A beautiful location and beautiful facilities.

    The restaurant seems understaffed. The food is great, and the staff is lovely, but the service is very slow. It seems to me that this is not the fault of the staff, but rather the lack of personnel. I recommend that the hotel rethink the breakfast. It is not self-service, so the one server takes and inordinate amount of time to serve up the food. And with us, she even forgot to serve us our pastries. Breakfast, for travelers, is a key moment. We need to eat and get off to our day. The La Boca restaurant does not facilitate that. And getting a table in the evening is challenging.

    The location is unbeatable. Right on the lake (the Charco de la Boca), with full access to all of the hiking trails and organized visits to Doñana.

    That we only booked 2 nights 😀

    Beautiful rural hotel with very clean comfortable room. Exceptionally helpful staff that went out of their way to help us with a private Donana tour booking and restaurant recommendations when we'd forgotten to book the (excellent) hotel restaurant.

    There was nothing I didn’t like. Only thing is a suggestion, the crispy spinach and prawn salad was a huge bowl of crispy spinach and not many prawns, you couldn’t really see the prawns. I would suggest massively reducing the amount of spinach and add 4 large prawns instead.

    Loved our stay at La Malvasia. We booked a junior suite, the added touches of robes, slippers, wine and snacks were well received. The town is great for exploring. The location was perfect and very peaceful. Sitting on the veranda in the evening and listening to the wildlife was heaven. Unfortunately we had to amend our booking to one night due to unforeseen circumstances, the staff were exceptional and sorted everything out so there was zero stress. I can highly recommend this hotel and we will be visiting again. One thing to note if you are taking your dog maybe request a room in the extension building as it will be quieter for them.

    I booked with my dog. Non refundable. Then to be told dogs over 7kg not allowed. Dogs cost 35 euros normally but I was then told my dog would cost 60 euros. I told them I would not pay that and then they agreed to accept the lesser amount due to my non refundable status 😳 My visit was great until check out time and a lot of confusion about paying for my pet. That not a problem in itself. The abruptness and accusing tone of the lady was horrible. All the other staff were wonderful.

    Breakfast was very good but timing was a bit awkward with servers bringing around each choice at different times - you didn’t really know what the full breakfast options were.

    Quiet location, comfortable bed, tasteful decor, very nice wrap-around veranda with seats. Very good restaurant.

    The breakfast was moderate with very slow service. This is at least partly due to the silver service when a buffet would work much better

    Room 30 - One of our windows was permanently shut due to it being fixed, made the lounge dark. There was no telescope that we were expecting. The view was the lagoon in the distance but was over the car park. No iron. No kettle.

    Stunning hotel in an amazing location on the side of the lagoon. Lovely roof top pool. We had a suite which was beautiful and well designed. We had seafood paella for lunch in the restaurant and it was delicious.
