Find the Cheap Tiscamanita Hotels

Apartments are up the hill which is a good walk or you can get a taxi for about €3.50. Plenty of taxis about. Very basic apartments but they do include everything you need. you need to request fresh towels the day in advance. There is a laundrette on site which charges €5 per wash, also a dryer for around same price. Beds not the greatest so Don’t expect a comfortable sleep but you get what you pay for!

I arrived at Castillo in the early evening of October 2nd 2023 as a solo traveller. Having left home some 8 hours previously, I felt tired , hungry , and thirsty and was therefore looking forward to being welcomed to my apartment quickly and efficiently as a holidaymaker. Instead I found myself face to face with a surly and charmless young man who ran through the check in procedure in a bored and disinterested fashion before thrusting a grainy and badly photocopied map into my hand in order to find my apartment myself amongst hundreds of similar white bungalows in the complex At this point I might add I’m the only traveller checking in at that point. Some 45 minutes later I find my apartment after walking round the complex umpteen times , if the check in guy had removed himself from behind the desk and simply pointed to a gate 50 yards up the road all this could have been avoided. The apartment was tired looking , sagging curtains , broken sofa bed , the main beds were uncomfortable metal frame affairs with a mismatched wooden headboard jammed up between them and the walls No air con , simply antiquated ceiling fans/lights which were hard to figure out to keep running without the lights on. Kitchenette appallingly equipped . Something scuttles when I open a cupboard Blocked drains emitting foul odours in the bathroom The roads around the complex are shocking , featuring broken manhole covers , broken electrical boxes , discarded rubbish lying around , and oh watch out for cars randomly crossing your path without warning from the strange little mini roundabouts which allow cars to zoom in front of people in a pedestrian zone. Also beware the electric scooters hacking around everywhere I think I had 3 room service visits in a fortnight , and despite paying for late checkout on my last day I then had a cleaner wondering why I was still there at 12 , I had to google the words paid late check out to get rid of her , obviously someone hadn’t done their job! Finally if you come here and are not particularly fit , it’s approximately 1 1/4 miles to the nearest beach , despite saying beach resort and a steep uphill climb on the return I’m sure Castillo will give the standard reply to this review , but you need to revamp your rooms , employ staff that are good with people , repair your roads , look after your grounds properly , including using the irrigation system in order to avoid the eyesore of dead plants everywhere, last but not least some general information given to guests and proper signage around the place would greatly help!

We have just returned from a fabulous ten day stay at this hotel and have enjoyed every moment. Difficult to know where to start and who to thank first. Our greeting by David was excellent and the offer of a drink was such a welcoming touch.Swift check in and then David escorted us to our room and gave us a brief explanation of the hotel on the way and also how our wonderful sea view rooms air con worked . Our fourth floor room 438 was beautiful what a view. Breakfast can be some what chaotic if you go at 8 am it’s fine any later you do have queues, Tom the manager always on hand to help and ensure standards kept up thanks Tom for all your care and hard work making our holiday so special. Michela and Carlotta was also extremely helpful with any minor issues we had they where to minor to mention. I attended Aaron’s fantastic yoga and Pilates classes and was most upset when he had the weekend off and we had no classes all weekend. Food was fantastic, varied , cooked to perfection we enjoyed every meal we had at the hotel and want to say again a big thanks to all the staff who worked so hard to make our evening meals and breakfast so special. Our room was cleaned daily, the hotel is spotless, every morning I watched the staff clean around the pool area , could do with getting rid of the broken sun beds as some are well passed their best days. Spa is well worth a visit we loved the experience again staff helpful and friendly a very relaxing experience. I can’t wait to return to this hotel we had a very restful holiday We will however get a taxi next time as we passed our hotel on two occasions on the coach transfer and was almost the last drop and as you are no more than 10 minutes from the airport worth the cost of a taxi ride. Big thanks to all the staff at this hotel for making our stay so special.
