The property is large, beautiful, and serene. The front desk was always available, friendly and helpful. There's a couple restaurants on site. Both have great food! The one by the pool is great to hang out and watch your kids swim while you eat. It's right on the beach so you can practically walk out of your room and onto the beach! It's a great place! Will definitely stay here again!

I have stayed at the Playa De la Luz numerous times and it is always clean and comfortable. The location next to the water is fantastic. It is a great place to stay when you are visiting Rota.

Great Clean Hotel For Price!!
I stay here quite a bit for work trips. The grounds and rooms are always clean. Renovation of the pool and restaurant area were completed about 18 months ago and really looks great. Breakfast bar variety is better than most European hotel options, roomy and great service. The gym is decent for a European gym for sure with good variety of basic equipment. Pool closed in winter but lively during summer. Shower pressure was good this time as the shower head was updated in this one where others and sometimes lacking pressure. The room has the twin single beds which I still don’t understand but common.. the beds are a little hard but super clean and comfortable nonetheless.

Disappointed
Workout room has limited number or damaged equipment.
Room A/C did not work properly.
Ants present in bathroom.
Room cleanliness was substandard (ants, hairs in bathroom).
Had to switch rooms.
New room key card failed every day, had to change and get a new one three times. Apparently, the card was good for one day each. Why didn't they just program the new card for the duration of my stay?
Couldn't provide me with a receipt for voucher purposes.
