In the beach town of Denia, the Posada Del Mar sits right next to the harbor, and along the promenade of the town. The building is a 13th century building restored to be a center of hospitality. They moved me from a normal room to a suite on the corner of the 3rd floor looking out to the Balearic and Mediterranean. The hotel lobby is fairly luxurious, a connecting restaurant and bar, plus a great mix of modern and historic design elements. When i got to my room, it was huge. Windows on along all the walls with doors opening out to the harbor. Large bed, huge bathroom, super well appointed and mostly important, super clean. I just wish i was there more than one night as i was just passing through town. Free parking across the street, friendly staff and a beautiful location. Next time i head back to the area ill be sure to return

My husband and I chose this hotel for our 11th year anniversary weekend. I was torn between La…read morePosada del Mar and the one next door (which was cheaper), but I'm glad that I choose this one. It's absolutely beautiful! This boutique hotel has all the characteristics you would expect, cosy, warm and tastefully decorated. It has hidden little corners where you can sit down and take a little time for peace and quiet. The reception staff were very welcoming and they even upgraded our room. Which was really appreciated as it was our anniversary! We were given a Junior Suite on the 4th floor with an amazing view of the marina. Even though there was no bar inside the hotel, there's a nice tapas bar adjacent to it, a lovely place to sit out and watch the world go by. The breakfast buffet was also nice, very continental and there's a wide range of choice. I would recommend this hotel if you're looking for a nice boutique hotel overlooking the sea. Denia is a lovely and lively place lots of things to do, restaurants and wine bars to choose from. We had a very relaxed and fabulous weekend. Thanks to the staff for making it special! :)

This is the place to stay! Great views, great service,…read moregreat food. The bar does not offer old fashioned or anything like it. No dirty martini but offers a lot of fruity drinks and basic beers. The rooms are clean, the guest service is friendly and efficient. There is a pool in front of the hotel and you can see the ocean from it. There dining area has direct view to the ocean and you can see it and feel the warmth. Of you want to swim in the ocean, it is not far at all which makes it a very convenient and central to everything. If you are wondering where to stay, this is your place.

Rooms were clean and cool, nice and cozy although being on some of the higher floors made me a little scared and my little brother managed to drop one of his bouncy balls from the toy machines here off the balcony (i have a fear of heights) being right by the beach is great and the surrounding town was very nice to go out and chill in at the evening. overall amazing place, glad to have came here, was so sad to leave.

The food is good but inall honesty I have noticed it deteriorating from the standard it was at 4 years ago. I always stay all inclusive and I feel it represents good value although the mid afternoon snacks tends to be lunchs leftovers. Four stars, two years ago it would of been five.

Needed more towels in bathroom and paper products in kitchen. Housekeeping was great - prompt and provided clean linens each day. One street from the beach - which was awesome. The breakfast buffet was reasonably prices at 13 Euro, but needs an upgrade - but choices and higher quality food. Also - beware if you get a room on the 6th floor if the rooftop bar is open. You will be right beneath and the noise from people an chairs dragging late at night or early in the morning is no fun. Otherwise - great property and would stay again.

The room was not very big, but when all you are doing is sleeping there, how big do you want it? The dining room was large and the buffet and cooking stations were well laid out. The choice was great at each meal time and catered for the Brits who dont want to venture from their "chips with everything". Shame about the Yourkshire puds tho that were a little over done! The sun terrace and bar are nicely sheltered from any winds and we even took part in the afternoon shooting competition. In the evening the entertainment in the downstairs bar was good and varied, hosted by a British couple with disco and karaoke. We will certainly return to this hotel.

Enjoyed my stay at the Hotel Kaktus, which was referred to me by a local friend. First of all, as…read moremany other reviews have mentioned, it is a little dated. However, there are a few things going for the Hotel Kaktus: 1) location and 2) staff. The Hotel Kaktus is across the street from the beach and in the heart of L'Albir, which makes it incredibly convenient to restaurants, shops, and (of course) the beach. The staff is amazing, especially the front office staff. I accidentally left a bag on the tram, and the team called lost and found for me. The hotel is meticulously clean. I ended up purchasing breakfast with my stay, which was a great way to go, as I don't make decisions really well first thing in the morning. Food is available only from 8am-10am, which gives you a limited slot, but the food is plentiful and decent quality for a buffet. I wouldn't recommend eating here for dinner, as there are lots of decent options within 5-10 minutes walking distance. If you're looking to stay in, there are a few caveats I'd give. First of all, the in-house entertainment is really not geared toward younger people (which is fine). A lot of retirees stay here, which is GREAT if you want a quiet holiday. Many of the balconies overlook the ocean, which was a great way to conveniently relax. However, I would also mention that it's also heavily utilized by smokers, so YMMV if you're a non-smoking asthmatic like myself. I also loved the fact that there was a kettle in the room, which I utilized heavily during my stay. I checked out the gym while I was there, and it wasn't anything to write home about. I ended up doing most of my exercise outside the building, so it wasn't as big of an issue for me. Overall, a solid stay, and really great value for the money.

Our room was two rooms a sitting room, a bedroom with a bathroom and a bidet. 10 stars for any hotel that provides a bidet. Viva España. We had a kettle and in 8 nights we used it once. Why on Earth would anyone make coffee in the room surrounded by places making some of the nicest coffees we've had in a long time. We had a fridge which was put to great use and the air con was top notch. The bed was cosy the view was fabulous. The breakfast choices were pretty good. Like all hotels the coffee could be better but it was fine for machines - we are just very fussy. The scrambled egg was delicious. We mention it as often this is dried out or cold in many hotels. The mushrooms were real tasty too - scrambled was available daily but mushrooms were now and again. If you have a sweet tooth there are plenty of sweet treats, jams, honey, cakes, biscuits. It's been a long time since I saw Marie biscuits. The ladies cleaning the rooms do a real good job. The staff are friendly and courteous but can be under a tad of pressure at times at breakfast. The bar staff make ace cocktails on 26th floor and the views are stunning. I only had credit card and wanted to tip at the bar but it wasn't straightforward using a card. The only thing we found tedious was having to wait on the lifts but it was occasional. You need a key card to work the lift or you're going nowhere. The lift on the right as you face them goes to 26 floor but the one on the left stops at 25. We are likely to return. If you want to buy some essentials go out the front door and turn left immediately - you'll be walking away from the sea. There's a supermarket on the same side of the street about 1/2 minutes Suma I think. They'll rip you off. Keep walking uphill you'll see a KFC and a Five Guys and when you get near the top by the main road on the right hand side there's an excellent home bakery with a good supermarket next door. Across the main road is the stunning huge meat, fish and vegetable market - Mercado. Looks like the entrance to a train station. Bombon Boss cafes are excellent coffee stops.

The beach itself, is within easy walking distance. The room was quite small and the elevators - all two of them - were small and inadequate for a 23 or 24 story building. Breakfast buffet was adequate for the price. The hotel staff spoke excellent English and were friendly. I especially appreciated them letting me e-mail documents to them for printing. If you are traveling on a budget and want to be close or on the Mediterranean, this is a good choice. I would actually rate this hotel about a 3 1/2.
