Ona Mar Menor

I honestly don’t know what people are complaining about . Obviously everyone has got different standards and expectations. For us this property is gorgeous. Yes , definitely a bit old school or more like classic style but you can tell that quality materials are used. We are not golfers, just came for a little weekend escape, but lots of passionate golfers around, some of them with their families. Good and chilled vibes Also to the people who don’t know the Spanish culture , in some part of the hotel this is typical mixture of Spanish / Moroccan designed hotel. Fabulous breakfast and dinner . In our room everything is working perfectly fine . The Spa was also nice. Staff very helpful and friendly , rooms clean and comfortable . Definitely recommended.

A hidden gem, within a gated community, a short drive from Cartagena. Spacious and luxurious rooms, great food, an impecably clean spa and the most serene indoor pool I have ever been to. And all these at a very affordable price! Excellent for a single traveller, a romantic getaway, a family or a group of friends.

Good quality beds. Bath would be good if it hadn't been fitted the wrong way round! Either had to sit on the plug or bang your head on the taps sticking out the wall if you sat in the correct way! Wonder if all the rooms are the same? Drain in the shower absolutely stunk of sewerage ( typical of most of Spanish and French plumbing to be fair, but this was quite bad at times) Breakfast was a good standard with a great deal of choice. Indoor pool 'supposed ' to be heated. Fitness room a bit pathetic with very limited facilities, broken machine's etc. Public areas, corridors etc need updating, peeling wallpaper etc. Main issue is the design of the tiled flooring in the rooms. They are absolutely filthy! Large sunken grouting gaps between the tiles are full of black dirt that has been building up over years! Definitely NOT a place to walk about bare foot. 3 star standard hotel at the moment.

Warm and relaxing staff. Rooms are incredible. Hotel itself was good but location around not got much to encourage you in Spanish culture.

Just returned from a 4 day break at Ona Mar Menor - our first time staying at the main hotel after 12 years of using the Residences. I agree with some of the other reviewers that the 5 star rating is not really accurate but I have to say that whilst we were staying (17th-20th September) there was no construction or any sort of inconvenience. Sure the place looks old and is in need of a thorough renovation (which I believe is already underway) but the twin room we had was perfectly acceptable. It had functional air conditioning and the beds were firm mattressed with good pillows. Our room was on the 4th floor with a balcony and it was a cracking view across the pool area to the golf course. The Pool itself was pretty deserted and is the hotel's best feature we thought. Clean, not overly chlorinated and with decent depth, it was lovely to swim and lounge around. Food wise in the hotel we only had breakfasts which were in the normal terrace room not the basement conference room. It was basic food - no argument there - but it was fresh prepared and had sufficient variety. The Clover bar is a stereotypical fake Irish bar (there is one at the centre of every golf resort in Murcia!) but it was lively enough with plenty of screens showing sport and plentiful seating outside. We ate there the first evening and it was simple food but cooked fresh and not stupidly expensive. Check in and out was speedy and efficient, no complaints there and housekeeping didn't miss anything that we noticed. In summation I would say this is a three star establishment that is perfectly OK for golfers to base themselves in whilst exploring the golf courses in the area (of which there are lots). We came away both agreeing that we would stay in the Hotel again next year.
