Mysigt enkelt boende

Det här är ett mindre, snyggt hotell. Det är enkelt men ändå snyggt och stilistiskt. Känslan är Marocko i Spanien. Vi hade ett rum med två sovrum och två badrum. Litet och mysigt pool område och nära till stranden i närheten. Mysig frukost. Området är både vackert och slitet, men också tomt. Sannolikt för att vi besökte det i lågsäsong. Mycket trevlig service på hotellet.

Madreselva was so lovely I wanted to move in!! It’s rustic but comfortable. The rooms are set around a central patio with tables chairs and sofas, and filled with tropical plants which give a cool ambience at any time of day. The staff are all lovely (special thanks to Alba who quickly responded to queries before and during our stay). Even the other guests were pleasant and friendly. We’ll definitely be back, next time for longer.

Un trocito tropical con mucho encanto.

Se trata de un hotel-boutique con mucho encanto. Está todo en una sola planta que gira alrededor de un agradable patio con mucha y muy cuidada vegetación. Y en un extremo del patio, la tranquila piscina. Los desayunos son una delicia. Tipo buffete, con fruta, pan embutido y algunos dulces, en el propio patio. No es muy grande, pero está muy bien servido para todo lo que se pueda desear. También sirven zumo de naranja natural. Las habitaciones no son extremadamente grandes. Sin embargo, la cama sí lo es. Y tienen un bonito y agradable patio privado. Tiene parking privado, lo cuál se agradece. La única pega es que no es demasiado grande, y cuando el hotel está lleno no caben todos los coches. Pero el personal del hotel te da la opción de dejar el coche en doble fila dejando las llaves para que ellos lo puedan mover si es necesario. Sin duda, una cosa muy buena que nos llevamos del hotel es el trato del personal. Cada cuál más simpático y servicial. Te informan de todo lo que hay por la zona, las opciones... y por las mañanas te esperan con una sonrisa para servirte el desayuno. Un maravilla donde esperamos volver cuanto antes. @gema.carr

Great little hotel with onsite safe parking. All rooms set around a pretty courtyard. Each room has a small private terrace with table & chairs. Everything was very clean. Breakfast was taken to your table & was very nice. There’s a small pool & it’s less than 5 minute walk to the beach. Enjoyed our stay & would definitely stay again

Madreselva - hotelli, jossa on rentouttava olla

Hotellissa oli oikein viehättävä puutarhamainen sisäpiha. Illalla oli rentouttavaa istua sisäpihalla pehmustetulla tuolilla kirjaa lukien ja katsella samalla tähtiä. Kylässä on niin vähän valoja, että linnunratakin näkyi useana iltana. Otava on hieman hassussa asennossa verrattuna Suomen tähtitaivaaseen. Atlantin aaltojen ääni kuului vaimeana koko yön. Hotellihuoneissa oli 2 miinuspuolta: ei juomakelpoista vettä, eikä jääkaappia. Hotellin työntekijät olivat erittäin ystävällisiä ja palvelualttiita. Ravintolan ruokalista oli suppea, mutta annokset maukkaita. Ravintola oli myös koko ajan auki, päinvastoin kuin muut paikalliset ravintolat, jotka siestan jälkeen avasivat vasta klo 20.

Un Lugar Perfecto para conocer Caños de Meca

El Hotel Madreselva nos ha resultado un lugar acogedor y, desde el primer momento, ha sido como estar en casa. Los empleados muy amables, siempre atentos a hacer nuestra estancia aun mejor. El entorno de primera, con ese jardín donde tomarse un café o desayunar, la piscina o las terrazas individuales de cada habitación. Resumiendo: recomiendo el hotel Madreselva, situado en el centro de Caños de Meca y con un personal de primera.
