Parador de El Saler

A lovely hotel golf resort in a stunning area, we stayed for 2 nights with a dog. The room was large and the bed comfy our view was away from the sea but we were glad as there was a cool breeze which we couldn't feel on our balcony. Although dog friendly you are very limited on what you can do, we couldn't use the restaurant or the bar only the terrace, which would be ok if warm enough. To be fair the terraced bar had glass screens so we ate outside and had a lovely meal. Would come again without a dog to use all the lovely facilities. The beach by the hotel was not dog friendly but 15 mins up the road Pinedo beach was.

Room - great size and view of the sea/golf/pool. Gym and Spa were a highlight, thanks to Pilar for wonderful treatments and positive energy. Restaurant staff and bar staff were wonderful as were the receptionists. Not too many rooms so very quiet by the pool even though the hotel was full, nobody guarding loungers with towels, drink service by the pool was very nice and chilled. Karina, Barbara, Yago (very kind), Lorena, Cristina all great staff and it isn't an easy job to keep smiling thanks to all for making us feel so welcome. Oh gosh and Alfonso/Marta on arrival, thanks again after our rental was a no show.

This was the only Parador where I was charged for breakfast. When you are already paying premium prices it is a disgrace to charge an additional €23 for breakfast.

Location and design. Perfect for golfing 🏌️‍♀️

Location was good and the room had a lovely view of the sea and was very spacious. The breakfast was very good.
