Louis Althea Beach

One week all inclusive for me and my sons (8&11) in October 2019. We are very happy and satisfied with the whole trip and stay at this hotel. The most fantastic part is the staff, so friendly and service minded and familiar so they all make you feel at home, whenever and wherever. Apart from this, the rooms are clean and nice and practical, the food is amazing and the surroundings are beautiful. Go here! That is my advice. //Annie

Nice 3 star hotel. Very very good buffet. The food is unexpectedly good. Although the hotel seems to undertake serious measures against the rodents (see the picture attached), I have heard rats squeaking in the vents right in the bedroom and the bathroom. Early in the morning and during the day you can clearly hear them running on the second layer ceilings. Don't get late for the meals. If you show up late, waiters will hardly pay attention to you and offer a table. Even though tables are more than enough. And if you come alone they prefer not to notice you at all. Also, evening shows are crap. Except that, it is a good and quite hotel to stay.

My husband and I have just returned home from a 10 night stay at Louis Althea. The hotel is stunning, beautiful scenery, great staff (most of them) and great food. Most of the staff there are wonderful, we got on very well with Augustus and George in the bar. Augustus is the manager of the bar and the restaurant. He's very easy to talk to and any problems that you may have, even if it isn't about the bar or restaurant, he will try his best to sort out. Top man he is. George, what a star! He's a really nice bloke and nothing is ever too much trouble for him, we spent most of our evenings at the bar just talking to him. There were a couple of the staff that were so moody all the time, never cracked a smile. The food, wow. The food was superb. Lots of options if you're a fussy eater like myself. The rooms were very clean. Not the most up to date but it doesn't really matter when you're only sleeping in there. The beds were SO comfortable! Normally when we go abroad, the beds are the things we dread most about our stay, but here, it was such a pleasant surprise to find really comfortable beds and duvets! I normally get really cold with air conditioning but my husband must have it on. So normally I am freezing as there is normally only blankets so I was pleasantly surprised to see duvets on the bed rather than blankets. The cleaners are so nice, very polite and do a very good job. The pools, we only stayed round the 'quieter' pool but it wasn't really that quiet. Lots of children jumping in right next to you oblivious that you're there. But to see them having fun and laughing away, makes it better. We found that we would have to reserve our sun beds by that pool bu 9:30 at the latest. The pool depth is 1.5 meters, which is great for us. The other pool is where the daytime entertainment is. The evening entertainment was extremely poor. The woman that deals with the entertainment, she never smiled, I think there was an act twice in the time we stayed. They normally finish around 8:30 and then the woman packs up her stuff and then leaves. Theres no background music which we found poor. No speakers even at the bar, that would have made the atmosphere better we think. I think that the only reason I haven't scored 5/5 is purely for the entertainment. It was terrible unfortunately. We will definitely be going back to Louis Althea.
