SBH Maxorata Resort

The room, wow! Stayed at SBH chain hotels 3 times now as we love them, but this hotel room was definitely the best standard and cleanliness we’ve experienced. Very modern, clean and fresh. The sun beds have to be paid for, which is fine, but….. the hotel staff do not stop people coming down. We paid for the beds, for the day and were told very clearly no under 18s, and they have to be paid for. Not one staff member checked through the day and there were loads of people in and out etc. They can’t be blamed as it isn’t signposted or hotel guests made aware that the area is private. But the staff did not keep a check on this, and was pointless to pay for it. The food, standard all inclusive I guess. The quality of the food was not the best. Having stayed at other chains, the quality in this one was far below the standard SBH has set at other hotels The dining room was always busy, to be expected when the hotel is so big and so busy, but never struggled to find a table in there. The all inclusive was fine, the only thing we struggled with was that the snack bar had one staff member at the bar and it was so busy, that they should have opened up the pool bar or put another staff member on, as it was quite chaotic down there a lot of the time All in all, there were good and bad points like all hotels and all inclusive resorts, it was a great distance away from the beach and shopping so always had something to keep occupied.

Not as bad as reviewers say. My experience here was somewhat decent. Most of the food was good, Waiters, shopkeepers and cleaners were nice. There was a nice selection of rooms with different characteristics and some great views. Very easy to get to the beach as all you really have to do is exit through the roadside entrance, cross the road, and walk to the beach. Pools were kept clean and i had a nice time here. Overall, It was decent, and i reccomend it if you like going to the beach and relaxing at the resort.

I booked this with my 12 year old son. After reading some of the reviews I was really nervous. However. It's really not that bad. It's a really good 3 star. I mean, high grade 3 star. I've been to 5 star resorts and it's not on par with them but it's a really comfortable, open spacious hotel. Where is misses are things like cracks in the door frame and the carpets need replacing in the halls. But the rooms are open and spacious with air con, our view wasn't great but had beautiful sunshine in the morning. The food was interesting. Not glamours, lots of salad choices, meat changes daily, lots of vegetables. The deserts were mainly the same each day. Now... the drinks.. seriously watered down. You can knock back 4 / 5 cocktails and still be sober. The pools are freezing. Not heated. Takes ages to acclimatise but once your in they're fine. Although I'm a very cold person so I had to get out after 20 minutes even if I swam continually. The views are beautiful of the beach, the service was good. The restaurant/ buffet area was clean tidy and continuously cleaned. Chefs cooked infront of you. Soda on tap, same with wine and beer. 2 hour transfer from airport. Beach is stunning. Very windy though and can be choppy. All in all a lovely well rounded hotel. Don't be afraid.

We were in September 2024 in this hotel. I made a booking online and received a confirmation. We came with a 1,5 years old baby and the receptionist said they have no rooms and they can’t host us. After some stress and arguments they confirmed that our booking is ok and we got a room. Maybe better was not to get a room there at the end. The hotel is old, a lot of things broken and out of service. Really not nice impression to go around through the territory: dirty, broken, some dishes and glasses everywhere. Probably not enough cleaning personnel. The food was not good. Salmon was only served Fridays. The serving of the food - without putting any afford. The drinking machine was always “broken” - even it worked if you ignore the sign… Would not advise the hotel and I personally will never come back.

Nice holiday, old and shabby in places. Rooms not cleaned very well, regularly needed to ask for towels and toilet rolls at reception. Asian restaurant wasn't very nice and wasn't worth booking or paying for drinks. Broken glass, empty glasses and bin bags hanging around outside rooms. Trees need trimming around paths and walkways need sweeping, just looks unkept. Food in restaurant nice, can't fault the staff. Lots of sunbed saving, so struggled to get 4 together for our family. Shame the children's pool isn't bigger. Again the staff make this hotel. Shame as it could be lovely, but needs a bit of TLC! Enjoyed our stay but won't be returning.
