Hello terr68
I agree with everything Netsie says about the Son Matias. We have been in January 06 and 07, and we think it is great but it is a 'No Children' Hotel.
We have also stayed several times at the hotel Santa Lucia which is next door and they do have children there. It is also a very good hotel.

The Torrenova Marina is an excellent hotel which caters for families especially children. The food, rooms, entertainment and facilities are excellent though its position is uphill. You are sure to enjoy what this hotel has to offer.

Hello all, talking of the hotel Marina Torrenova, we have booked to go in October with my daughter and our two gransons I have seen some good reports for this hotel, but the one thing that keeps coming up is the bar prices. Can any one tell me if they are as dear as people are saying or just 3* hotel prices, it is that I have seen on some reports that is best to take your own drink, but I am not one to try and do this your replys are needed.

Thanks,
Dave.

you will find if you take your own drinks into the bar pool ect.you may be asked to leave or pay the price of the drink you have taken with you,ok round pool is not so bad,but in bar no,drinks are a bit more than bars,thats how they make the money.

Hello djwoody, thanks for your reply don't get me wrong I don't mind paying hotel prices and know that they are always more than the local bars, it is just that on the thomson site people say that they take there own drinks as they are so dear. I just wanted to know how dear, are they way over the top or just hotel prices.

djwoody, have you stayed at the Marina Torrenova?
I think what he's saying is in a lot of reviews the bar prices have been ridiculous! 3.8 euros for a pint of local lager??? kids drinks are also quoted as being way over priced and not 1.5 euros! Plus many of the reviews state that they take their own drinks to eat!

hi there, we stayed at the Marina Torrenova in october 06 and found it a very clean hotel the staff were friendly and happy to help, we did find the bar a bit expensive (but your on holiday enjoy it), the only set backs about the hotel is that it is up a hill and the pool is half in the shade untill the afternoon which makes it hard to get a sunbed,but it's close to the beach and set in a quite location, food was ok just depends on your taste buds really, we would return to this hotel as we had a great time.

We went to the Santa Lucia when our boys were a similar age to yours last year. Hotel is great, excellent rooms and service, however the food isn't fabulous for 'picky' kids but ours always managed to find something! We have been 4 times with the boys and the selling point was the beach on the doorstep. Only downside was there are no 4 bedded rooms you will have to pay for two rooms which means you are paying for 4 adults but well worth it, we emailed the hotel a week before we were due to go and requested interconnecting rooms, we made sure the outside door was always locked and the boys used to go out through our room. I can certainly recommend the hotel. Sparkycat x
