The hotel is located in a great area, with its own beach surrounded by beautiful and picturesque views. Right in front of the hotel there is a restaurant-café, which is very convenient if meals are not included. The hotel itself has a charming atmosphere, giving off an “old village” vibe. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Within walking distance, you’ll find a plaza with restaurants, shops, and another beach. The hotel also offers a selection of excursions and transfer services upon request.

The conditions of the rooms were terrible, especially the bathrooms, which are at youth hostel level at best. The entire building is outdated and needs a complete renovation. The gym is very old with only 1 mat, old carpeting and a few outdated machines. There is nothing that makes this place a 4 star hotel. Nothing is complimentary, not even a clean beach towel. The location and the view are beautiful and the only redeeming qualities of the hotel.

I loved the atmosphere of the ocean and the scenery. Did not like that they only give you one beach towel for the entire stay. The beach restaurant had very LITTLE choices 3 salads from 12:30-2 then ONLY frozen pizza rest of the day. No service at the pool side to get drinks, food. Nothing going on on the property. Very quiet and felt like i was on a retirement property!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We enjoyed 2 nights here. The front desk staff was fantastic. We liked the private resort which had amazing grounds including pools, and the beach/rocks. The pool/beach chair scenario is very undesireable. They ask you not "save" chairs but everyones gets up at the crack of dawn and goes down to throw their stuff on chairs and then proceed to leave for hours. We just went to the beach and put our towels in the sand, or on a portable chair if available when we were ready to get in the sun. We ate at the restaurant across the street and had a blast. You can also walk up the hill and down the street to get to main Baja area of shops and restaurants. All very close!

This was our fourth stay at Grand Hotel Smeraldo Beach and we enjoyed it as always. The hotel has a beautiful, picturesque location with pools, 2 private beaches only for hotel guests and a very well kept garden. The staff is brilliant. The hotel complex is not new, traditionally Italian but very well maintained and spotlessly clean. A superb, relaxed stay at this hotel, truly beautiful views and outstanding food with overall excellent service. We booked half board as before and enjoyed delicious lunch at Pagoda almost everyday but the four course dinner with typical Italian dishes must not be missed. Grazie mille! We will certainly come again,.

Beautiful and isolated location with private beach and large pool areas with sun beds. Nice personnel and excellent food served for both breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The room was clean with good view and terrace, but quite outdated. The bathroom was also outdated, which was seen from a toilet where the pressure created a splash on the floor every time, even when the lid was down. It would be nice with sun beds instead of chairs on the beach as well, since most sun beds were taken already at breakfast.

Relaxing and Remote

Had a very nice stay at the hotel with friends Alas, the weather was pretty poor, which did impact our four day break The rooms are a very high standard The area around the pool suffers from not having enough space for sun beds, but the position means that there is not a great deal of outside space The main hotel restaurant is not good value for money, however the pizza restaurant is brilliant The downside of staying at the Ma&Ma is it is not easy to get to town, the hotel could do with offering a shuttle service, it would make the experience that much better, as there are lots of good restaurants in town In summary, a great stay, not perfect, but I was not disappointed. I would stay again if a shuttle service was provided, as that opens up the choice of restaurants as parking the hire car in town is not easy, plus you can’t drink and drive
