I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at Villa del Mar Hotel. The cleanliness of the property and the friendliness of the staff really stood out, and for the price I paid, the value was excellent. While the pool area was a bit on the smaller side and there weren’t many sun loungers, the rooftop bar provided a great spot to unwind, and having the beach just steps away made up for it. The food wasn’t anything spectacular, but considering it was an all-inclusive buffet, it was perfectly adequate. Overall, I had a really enjoyable stay and would happily return if I visit Benidorm again.

Situated right opposite the beach the hotel is in an ideal place. It's quieter than just up the road. The rooms are adequately furnished maybe a bit dated but kept clean. Every day maid service. The staff are pleasant and friendly. The food is always good with plenty of choice.
Ety was lovely and very polite. Very engaging and made you feel so welcome.
Overall had a very enjoyable stay.
Only downside is the pool. If that's what you are coming for then you will find it very small and enclosed.

Mixed Experience – Some Hits, Some Misses
We’ve got mixed feelings about Villa del Mar. Our room was a big let-down — definitely not 4-star standard. The TV barely worked, the shower door was broken, and there was damage around the door frame. We reported it to reception, but nothing was fixed during our stay, which was disappointing.
That said, the rest of the hotel was actually really nice. The cocktails were amazing, no queues at the bar, and the food was good too. The chill-out bar was a lovely spot to relax, and the location is perfect — right by the beach and close to everything.
Entertainment wasn’t great, though. The area where it’s held feels quite tired and in need of a refurb. Some of the staff were lovely and very friendly, but a few were quite rude, which left us with a bit of a sour taste.
Overall, we enjoyed parts of our stay but wouldn’t rush back unless the rooms and service improve.

Location on beach front is amazing. Had a pool view room but I wouldn't bother as we ended up with a view of the kids pool. Pool areas are quite small. Roof top bar is nice with seats and lounge beds. Entertainment room is small with limited seating. Restaurant is big enough with themed food on each night.

The hotel Villa del Mar is an excellent hotel with a great concept for their guests! The all inclusive concept has many possibilities in drinks and food.
Hygiene is very good! Everywhere where you look everytime there is someone cleaning something.
The food in the restaurant is excellent! And is worth all the 4 stars! The manager Joaquin is a great, hard working and friendly man. The whole team is working good as well.
Entertainment is also really good. Every night there is something else to do!
The rooms are big, clean and lovely located of you are in the front. Then you have a view over the sea. At the other side you look at the swimming pool.
We definitely recommend a stay in Villa del Mar 👍
