SBH Monica Beach Resort

Bob

I have heard a lot of mixed reviews about this place so I’d like to share my experiences . The food is lovely and very worth the all inclusive me personally I’m really picky but their lunch / meal options are delicious . They have changing rotations of food every night . Although the food changes they’res always fresh pizza and chip with amazing salad option s and many choices of breads as well as some nights having a great selection of seafood including fresh prawns and oysters (great for sea food lowers as amazing options ) . They have ice cream which is delicious and creamy . The entertainment is quite good for younger ages and some nights older . The entertainment team is kind funny and helpful along with the rest of the staff . One problem though is we did notice after the cleaners had been out charger our wasn’t their which we still dont know weather was an accident or not we went to the shop to discover their 40 euros other than that great workers . The pools are great as one of the main 2 is heated and the other isn’t so you can change depending on how you’re feeling . Also just want to make sure for anyone reading this who is considering booking the slides are quite slow for anyone over the age of 12 due to them not being powerful enough and quite slow at that age due to ruff weight . Our only complaint is our room is quite far witch seems to be a different hotel or apartment complex merged into the SBH one which is quite the walk to meals but it’s quiet and mainly our fault as we booked a suit instead of a room but would have preferred some warning when booking . Also theirs a bus stop to the zoo really easy accessible and i would recommend the zoo 100% . Overall great food , great service , close to the beach and o would recommend to anyone planning on booking !!

I loved the sunset and the all inclusive. The Mini disco and kids club . The room was so clean apart from one cockroach so we got rid of it . The slides weren't fast until I went on my knees. I just started to get used to SBH Monica Costa Calma but sadly we were only there for eight days and we had to leave. But I know you will like it there.

Coata Calma is a lovely resort with a stunning beach, however, bit of a trek so look into transfers first. Hotel is good in some parts, excellent in others. Firstly, the dining room staff, the food & the restaurant layout were all excellent. Loads of choices, eat inside or out & not banging elbows like some hotels. The staff were very pleasant & helpful & always a welcoming smile. The bars & barstaff, again, very good & pleasant. Spent alot more time in the pool bar as it was more relaxed & not one for being stuck inside. Didnt go to any entertainment so cannot comment on it, however met some people who did & said it was very hit & miss. Pools are very nice & the animation team do try hard but not too much interest in what they were doing. Rooms, fine, didnt find any issues & slept well. Overall, a nice hotel in a nice location, but....... my issues were as follows :- Very few English speakers both staff & other guests which made it a little bit difficult to mingle as a Solo traveller. One for beach lovers if that is your thing.

Really happy with the holiday, next to the sandy beach, 3 bars, one overlooking the sea open till 3pm. One pool bar and one in the evening. Drinks are ok, cheap brands, cocktails not delicious at all. Breakfast every day the same, but lunch and dinner are fantastic, various dishes, seafood, cheeses, pork, goat, chicken, many salad options. Room was ok, I couldn't open the patio door and bathroom door was noisy to close. Air con worked well. All the staff very polite, smiling, professional, housekeepers, receptionists, animation team, waiters. There is a market on a Sunday just across a road. Nothing much to do in the area. Took around an hour to get to from the airport. Plenty of activities during the day, archery, rifle shooting, ping pong etc. There is a sport centre right next to the hotel, with free gym, paid minigolf and paid tennis court. Evening entertainment hit and miss, your usual bingo, dancing, white party. Kids club available. Plenty of sun beds, no wars, and this was during the half term. 2 swimming pools, one with the slide. One small shop with souvenirs and rent a car available. Public toilets clean. I havent see a single cockroach the whole week.

We booked a package holiday at Monica Beach from 11.09.26 to 19.09.26. When we arrived late in the evening, we were told that the hotel was fully booked and that we had to stay at another SBH hotel instead. We had not been informed about this in advance. We had specifically booked and paid for TWO separate rooms for three adults, but at the replacement hotel all three of us were accommodated together in ONE family room!!! The replacement hotel also had more limited facilities than Monica Beach, so we did not consider it an equivalent replacement. It was very disappointing to arrive after travelling all day and only then find out that neither the hotel nor the two-room arrangement we had booked was available 😒
