Hotel Maya Alicante Reviews

Strong shower, lots of hot water, nice pool with lots of loungers on deck, excellent service in Spanish & English. Good breakfast buffet, had some things for celiac which was nice, great coffee machine. I would suggest a fresh juice option (even at extra cost), & there was only 1 meal at pool bar/restaurant that was gluten-free. Can use pool before & after check in, & is shower by pool. Wifi worked 90% of the time. Gym is small but not bad. Spain was having a heat wave so AC was rarely enough everywhere in south of country. Room big & clean, lots of big towels, decent bed & frig, gel & lotion only. Balcony was large but enclosed on all but 1 side with window. I prefer a balcony that extends, but probably too hot anyway. Walls are thin so I had to knock on neighbour’s door at 11:30pm & 2am to ask to lower their voices. Location is fabulous, 20 min walk to beach, town, mall & movie theatre, right at foot of Castillo so no real view. On bus/tram line. My only complaint is the AC vent sucks air from somewhere where people smoke. I eventually turned it off as I’d rather deal with humidity & street noise than smoke. It was so bad in the bathroom I had to close the door & hold my breath sometimes when I went in. If they made this whole hotel smoke-free (including the outdoor areas), I would recommend it without reservation. They couldn’t tell me where the vent sourced & there were no other balcony rooms free. Really nice staff.
