Info
Summary of reviewsMagic Aqua Rock Gardens is highly praised for its prime location, being a mere 5-minute stroll from the beach, offering easy access for beach lovers and families seeking a relaxing holiday. The surroundings, though slightly uphill, are deemed clean and tidy, contributing to an overall serene atmosphere away from the bustling Benidorm center, which is conveniently just a 10-minute taxi or bus ride away.

Guests laud the friendly and accommodating staff who enhance the stay significantly with their attentiveness and professionalism. The diverse and plentiful breakfast buffet with gluten-free options is a favorite, though occasional long queues are noted. Dinner is generally appreciated for its quality and convenience, though it can feel repetitive over several days. The opportunity to dine at other hotels in the chain adds variety and an adventurous feel to meal times.

Rooms, while featuring comfortable double beds and some with balconies, are often described as small and in need of upgrades with cleanliness being a point of contention. Despite these drawbacks, the hotel’s overall cleanliness receives high marks, thanks to the diligent cleaning staff. Still, improvements in certain areas such as window rails and common areas are suggested.

The pool area, featuring a popular aquapark with exciting slides, is a big hit among families, although the pool itself can be crowded and the water chilly. The children's pool is well-maintained and suitable for youngsters. Entertainment activities for children are highly praised, contributing to a lively and enjoyable family-friendly environment.

The hotel’s free Wi-Fi service, however, often falls short of expectations with reports of poor connectivity and weak signals throughout the premises. While the elegant facilities, engaging entertainment activities and high-quality food make it an attractive option for families, some aspects such as room size and food variety might not fully meet the expectations of a four-star rating.

In summary, Magic Aqua Rock Gardens offers an appealing holiday experience with excellent location and amenities, especially for families, though some areas could benefit from upgrades and improvements to fully align with four-star standards.

Guests appreciate the hotel's strategic position near shopping areas while highlighting the clean and tidy environment of the hotel itself. Despite the uphill slope leading to the hotel, which may be inconvenient for some, many found it a good workout that keeps you fit.

Reviewers commend the hotel for its friendly and accommodating staff, varied and delicious buffet and excellent facilities including a nice pool. The hotel offers a range of activities that cater to both couples and families, enhancing the overall enjoyment of the stay.

Some reviews mention parking challenges and the GPS taking guests to the back of the hotel, which could be confusing. However, these minor drawbacks do not overshadow the positive feedback regarding the hotel's surroundings and amenities.

Many visitors appreciated the good buffet spread and convenient dining hours, highlighting the attentive service and friendliness of the staff. The cafeteria and restaurant consistently received praise for their excellent food. Guests found the dinner and breakfast buffets to feature exquisite and delicious dishes with many dining options and bars adding to the variety.

However, some reviews note that the food tends to have little variety and can feel repetitive over several days. Despite this, the quality of the food was generally regarded as good, aligning with the standards expected of a 4-star hotel. The possibility of visiting other hotels in the chain, such as enjoying a medieval dinner at Magic Robin Hood, adds an extra layer of dining adventure.

Though there were occasional concerns about booking time slots for meals, which could be inconvenient for those exploring outside the hotel, overall everything was considered great, especially for families with children. The dining experience at Magic Aqua Rock Gardens is largely satisfying, making it a notable aspect of a stay there.

Rooms
Magic Aqua Rock Gardens offers a mix of experiences when it comes to its guest rooms. The rooms are generally described as being small, particularly for families or groups with many noting that space feels cramped for three or four people. Despite the compact size, some guests appreciate certain amenities like hairdryers and air conditioning; however, the latter is often reported as old and noisy, affecting the comfort of the stay. Cleanliness appears to be a significant issue with instances of dirty sheets and insufficient room cleaning reported. The decor and furnishings are often described as outdated with some noting old bathrooms and fabric curtains in the shower. On the positive side, the rooms feature comfortable double beds and some have balconies, though these are also cited as makeshift and not ideal for hanging beach towels. Overall, while the hotel excels in entertainment and staff hospitality, the rooms could benefit from upgrades and more thorough cleaning to meet the standards expected of a 4-star establishment.

Generally, many guests found the beds to be large and very comfortable, often highlighting the cozy and comfortable mattresses that contribute to a good night's sleep. Descriptions of "super comfortable beds" and "comfortable bedding" indicate that positive sleeping experiences are common. However, some guests noted issues such as beds being pushed together, resulting in less comfort and occasional poor quality bedding. Additionally, there were occasional mentions of beds being noisy with some complaints about creaking sounds and missing legs. Pillows were reported as being too soft by some visitors and attention to mattress cleanliness was raised by a few. Overall, while the majority of guests appreciated the comfort of the beds, a few areas of improvement could enhance the overall sleeping experience at the hotel.

A significant number of reviews highlight the dedication of the cleaning staff, noting their pleasant demeanor and consistent efforts to maintain clean spaces.

Some guests also mentioned that the rooms felt in need of an upgrade despite being generally clean.

Ultimately, while the hotel excels in maintaining a clean environment and offers excellent staff service, there are isolated instances that indicate room for enhancements in cleanliness and facility updates.

Overall, the positive interactions with the staff strongly contribute to the favorable impression of Magic Aqua Rock Gardens with many guests noting that the staff's attentive and friendly approach is what they liked the most about their stay.

Wi-Fi
Magic Aqua Rock Gardens offers an impressive array of amenities for guests, but the Wi-Fi quality has received consistent criticism. Visitors have noted that the internet signal is often too weak with poor connectivity throughout the hotel, including the pool, bars and rooms. There are frequent complaints about the Wi-Fi not working for the entire week of their stay, which has left many guests dissatisfied. Additionally, issues such as cards frequently deactivating and intermittent mobile signal at higher floors have been reported. This hotel may need to enhance its Wi-Fi service to meet guest expectations.

Pool
Guests at the Magic Aqua Rock Gardens have shared mixed but predominantly positive feedback about the hotel's pool area. The highlight for many is the aquapark, which boasts several great water slides that are a hit with both kids and adults, offering fun and excitement. The children's pool specifically has been noted as being very good for kids and the entertainment around the pool area adds to the joyful atmosphere. The pool area features a huge TV, music and plenty of sun beds, minimizing worries about finding a place to relax.

However, several reviews mention that the pool is generally small and tends to be very crowded, making it difficult to find free loungers or even space to put down a towel. The pool water has received numerous comments for being uncomfortably cold, described at times as freezing. Despite these issues, the pool is well-maintained, as evidenced by consistent cleaning and upkeep.

The limited sunlight in the pool area—only from midday to early afternoon—has been noted, reducing the time the space is warm and sun-bathed. Nonetheless, the area with the slides along with the pool's accompanying jacuzzi and bar are considered great features, contributing to a generally enjoyable experience for visitors, particularly families with children.

Magic Aqua Rock Gardens appears to be an ideal destination for both couples and families, blending relaxation with various engaging activities that make any stay enjoyable. It’s clear that the hotel delivers on its promise of memorable and fun vacations, especially for families with small children.

4 Star
Magic Aqua Rock Gardens offers a mixed experience that may not fully align with its four-star rating. While the hotel is described as overall good with commendable cleanliness, several aspects do not meet four-star expectations. The food quality and variety often feel more akin to a three-star establishment and the small room sizes fall short of four-star standards. Reports of a strong sewage smell in some areas further detract from the experience. The commendable effort of the limited staff is noteworthy and evening entertainment includes two shows per night, though they can be crowded. It seems the hotel may have one star too many based on these reviews.

Children's Pool
Magic Aqua Rock Gardens in Benidorm stands out as an idyllic choice for families, particularly those with young children. The hotel offers excellent facilities specifically designed for kids, including a well-maintained children's pool that receives high praise for its suitability and entertainment value. With numerous activities available, it promises an engaging experience for little ones.

Families appreciate the hotel's thoughtful design and the warmth and respect from the staff towards children. While there are plenty of positive aspects, it is noted that the children's pool area could benefit from more loungers and better sun exposure. Overall, the combination of dedicated children's amenities and a family-friendly atmosphere makes for a memorable and enjoyable stay.
