"The variety, quality, and selection of food was fantastic. Everything was super clean from our room, to each and every restaurant, and each and every pool, washroom and sunbathing bed! All staff were super helpful, and made sure we were well taken care of from the minute we arrived till the early breakfast that was provided on the day we left! The entertainment was fun! We enjoyed the Chicago show! Thank for a great time!"

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful hotel, very well located. At first glance, you might feel a bit of envy when arriving on site, as the hotel is surrounded by larger and more modern resorts. However, Bella Beach offers everything a family with young children could need. The buffet is exceptionally good, so in my opinion there’s no real need to book the à la carte restaurants. The only downside of our stay was a small issue with the air conditioning. That said, the staff is truly friendly, and I highly recommend this place."

"The pool was amazing and had something for everyone, with plenty of facilities and really kind, caring staff. The entertainment every night was also brilliant and never failed to impress — everyone was so talented! The buffet had a great variety of food, with plenty of different options to choose from. We also loved that even after checking out, guests could stay and enjoy the food and drinks for as long as they wanted, which was a really nice touch. The only downside was the sunbeds around the pools. For the size of the hotel and the number of guests, there didn’t always seem to be enough to go around. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely recommend it!"

10/10 Excellent
"The most impressive was quality of food in buffet and the 3 restaurants. It's also perfect for families with kids. Cleaning was good, but missed some spots occasionally. The rooms are descent sized, comfy beds, bathroom was a bit small, but not a problem. What made stay great was that it was such a compact resort, but somehow they have "hidden the rooms" so it doesn't feel crowded. Beach is great, with plenty of chairs, pools the same. Amazing place for kids, as they kept meeting new friends, and parents could relax with a good overview pools and beach areas. Kids club had good opening hours and nice staff. Some staff members were excellent, some average, but they were all helpful with the kids. Food was beyond expectations. Top ingredients cooked very well. Exceptional value for money. What could be improved- Though most food was included, a couple of dishes needed extra payment. No roomservice was included in the Effortless package, but the ice cream shop was. There were 2 Wine lists, Effortless (all inc) + regular. The regular was available everywhere, the full effortless only in restaurants. In Bars only 3 wines, but all drinks included. Wine selection on effortless wine list could be improved, but a couple of good wines so no issues. Did not like shampoo and shower gel at all. Overall, for what we paid, we feel we received great value, our kid met so many new friends it was a great vacation for all. Will definitely be back."

"Just had a 7 night stay with my husband and children- 16,14,11. The hotel was clean and tidy, the staff were helpful and friendly and couldn’t do enough to help. My daughter has a wheat and dairy intolerance and they were happy to let us use things we brought with us as well as buying milk and making a cake that she was able to have. The pool was big enough for them to play and have fun but not too busy like some bigger hotels. We are looking to come back next year."
