    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    The Melia Llana has a great spot on the coast of Sal. It’s a couple of minutes’ walk from the picture perfect beach and within easy reach of Santa Maria.

    You’re right beside a white sandy beach at the adults-only Melia Llana. There are sunbeds by the ocean and two pools back at base, just a few steps from the bar. Plus, if you fancy a change of scene, you'll find a beach club down on the nearby sands.

    The numbers really add up at this place, which only makes it more appealing. There are two pools, two restaurants and four bars across the site.

    My husband and I have recently returned from Melia Llana and what an amazing experience. We had chosed Sal as our holiday destination for 2018 and we couldnt of chosen a better hotel or resort. From the time that we arrived, to the day we had to depart we couldnt fault it. The staff are attentive and professional and ensure that your time spent there is a "No Stress" experience. We had booked a Deluxe Room and as others have said they are very spacious and spotless. the bed is huge and yes it does have a firm mattress, but that suited us. We looked onto the seating area of the Azul Bar where most mornings I attended the Yoga session, something I had never done before, but the young lady who takes the classes takes time to ensure that all individuals are OK and adapts any position to your own capabilities. The bar staff in all areas, again are so attentive and polite. Carla at the pool bar is an absolute star, she made a point of getting to know people and made us feel very special during our stay. The Snack bar again is fab, all food looked lovely and I especially enjoyed the Vegetable Tacos. My only slight critiscm is that, as being by the pool, plastic glasses are used, but it did mean that a few glasses were cracked or had broken handles, so perhaps this is something that could be monitored and replaced more regularly. Food in the main restaurant was again of a very high standard, I know some previous reviews mention the temperature of food could be hotter, but I cant agree as all meals were cooked beautifully and the selection was amazing, from fresh fish, which my husband loved, to vegetarian dishes and freshly cooked dishes. Again staff in the restaurant are continously tidying and ensuring your glass is filled - so attentive. During our stay, we did explore the island either by foot, electric bike, 4x4, horse, sailing boat or taxi and again enjoyed every minute on learning about Sal and seeing how the locals bring the fish in and sell on the Jetty. Our whole experience of Sal has been amazing so thankyou to everyone on the island and especially to Melia Llana for making our 2018 holiday a fantastic one, its a memory that will stay with us forever. I will definately recommend and we hope to return ourselves soon.

    Much like all the other 4 & 5 star reviews, the Llana is excellent. Stayed for 11 nights with my wife in February 2018. Initially in a “regular” room in block 4, ground floor facing away from the pools onto a service road to the Dunas. Not a picturesque view but we don’t spend the daylight hours in the room, so no complaints. The room was clean and plenty big enough. The bed was huge! Unfortunately we had a slight leaking waste pipe from one of the bathroom sinks after a few days. The maintenance team had a few attempts to fix the leak but after the 3rd attempt we were moved to another room, a swim up room in block 2 no less. The room was slightly smaller as was the bed, but all still perfectly acceptable. All in all, great food, great location and fantastic staff. Special thanks to Valdano, Suely, Edna, Ana, Cristian & Edilene at the Pura Vida snack bar and Safira pool bar and also Otelino at the Avenue bar.

    Such an amazing hotel and the staff are the best I have ever experienced with there friendliness and nothing was to much for them with smiles all the way , the evening meals were okay but maybe a little to much fish on the menu that would be my only disappointment
    Beautiful place, lovely people

    This is our second visit to this wonderful location. It was great to be recognised and remembered by Jailson on reception, who gave us a very warm welcome. The Melia Llana is still maintained to a high standard and we still love this place. If you’ve never been here before you wouldn’t have noticed but having returned we did notice some small changes to the outstanding service we enjoyed last year. For example, unlike our first visit, the staff around the pool area seldom came around asking if they could get a refill for us. The glasses and pottery have been swapped for plastic ones which are worn/scratched or cracked and these were in short supply. The excellent bar staff having to use whichever type was to hand. Definitely a drop in standards and the reason I couldn’t give this another five star rating. The rooms are maintained and cleaned to a high standard with fresh towels and linen. The mini-bar was well maintained. The grounds are very well maintained and the cleanliness of the public beaches puts our beaches to shame. The menu is wide and there’s something for everyone. Taking into account that virtually everything has to be imported, except maybe the seafood, this is commendable. You have to remember that this is a very small island surrounded not by fields but by the sea, hence the huge variety of fish on the menu. One slightly disappointing aspect was the fresh orange juice on the breakfast menu. This was an unappealing shade of brown throughout our stay. The staff as a whole are excellent and do everything possible to make your stay here relaxed and stress free. We do love this place, but not sure yet if we’ll return for a third visit.
