What guests think

Across many reviews, Zodiaco is praised for spotless cleanliness and friendly staff, with a location that's a short walk to the beach yet slightly outside the busiest areas, making the surroundings generally quiet.

Rooms are modern and comfortable for the price, though some are small, with limited outlets and occasional noise, and mini fridges are not standard. A large outdoor pool and ample free parking are appreciated, but the bar/restaurant offering can be limited or close early, and several guests wanted more shade. Overall, expect a clean, good-value base with modest frills.

Lovely continental breakfast included. Room was clean and bright. Not sure about the glazed glass door of the bathroom, but bathroom and shower was excellent. The outdoor pool was good, with nice recliners and the pool was a good size and rarely busy. Would definately recommend and we plan to visit again.

Spotlessly clean. Large pool area, could be improved with more umbrellas for shade but great large pool Good breakfast On main road, some traffic noise during the day 10 minute walk to the beach Limited bar times, so having tea & coffee facilties and mini fridge in rooms would make a difference Staff all very helpful and friendly

The Hotel Zodiaco's rooms are small, but they have far more space dedicated to enjoying the facilities than most hotels. There is a pool table, 2 seating areas, a patio, pool with lots of chairs including ones that are covered, a bar and a large breakfast area and restaurant for lunch. The facilities are always clean and you can see the staff wiping down beach chairs, and cleaning walkways etc. The staff seem to take great pride in the facility. The hotel is about 4 blocks from the beach area and promenade which has a lot of restaurants, including Fantastico which has a small menu of great Indian choices. The hotel is great for families with all of the common space and the free and ample parking was a big bonus.

Just returned from a 3 night very enjoyable stay. It’s conveniently located if you want to visit other locations and only 8-10 minutes walk to the sea which had plenty of places to eat or sit and watch the gorgeous sunsets even in November It’s a reasonable priced hotel with parking and included continental breakfast which was an added bonus Our room was as shown on the website, very clean and comfortable bed, which was made up every day and towels changed In general the hotel was spotless. We didn’t use the pool although it was sunny it wasn’t The hotel does have a restaurant but as it is quiet at this time of year it wasn’t open, the bar was and we did pop in the evenings prices were very reasonable. The staff were very welcoming and helpful they gave us some good choices of restaurants to try.

Staff and service were excellent. Breakfast included and having the bar available was very good. Room was a good size. Lots of free parking. Only negatives were no electrical outlet in bathroom for a curling iron if you use one. There were plugs in the bedroom but none beside the mirror. Bathroom shower floor was also very slippery and perhaps should include a rubberized bath mat. More than one chair in the room would also add to the comfort if there are two of you,

The property was nice, clean and spacious. It was quiet but we did find that people slamming their doors was a nuance. The doors do not slam shut - you have to make them slam. No mini fridge in room. You could get ice for your bottle for a cost at the bar. Pool was lovely. Breakfast buffet was great!

Het hotel is ok om even te acclimatiseren na je vliegreis. Het ontbreken van een terras, slechts 1stoel in de kamer. Eigenlijk geen vakantiegevoel, eerder een hotel voor vertegenwoordigers en andere gasten voor 1 dag. Het personeel is wel vriendelijk en behulpzaam en het ontbijt is wat mij betreft, meer dan voldoende

Hotellet var virkelig pænt! Poolen var stor, liggestolene var vildt gode og priserne i baren ved poolen var fornuftige. Morgenmaden tilfredsstillende. Værelset var rent, sengene var gode og alt var godt ellers undtagen nogen få ting - brusehovedet på værelset var løst. Man manglede lidt et mini køleskab i det skab der alligevel er på værelset… derudover oplevede vi enormt meget støj sent aften og lidt ud på natten. Elevatorens lyd ved dens ankomst på etagen kunne tydeligt høres ud på natten. Folks snakken og fodtrin også. Så værelset er bestemt ikke isoleret godt for lyd. Derfor kun 4 stjerner.
