We had short stay one night. Room was very clean and we loved the vibe. Only minor issue! Balcony sliding door was making noises so not really good if you open/close late time. Pool was very clean. We loved the area and the hotel.

Good overall

Beautiful, safe, and convenient location. Good selection at the breakfast buffet. Staff very helpful and friendly. Beds very hard; maybe its a European thing but i prefer a softer mattress. Attached restaurant not impressed with food selection. Hotel a bit overpriced for the area.

The hotel was spacious, clean & well maintained. I would highly recommend, the pools, beach & rooftop adult pool/beach club was very nice. Reception staff was coldly polite & not especially helpful, they did not make recommendations, etc. The cleaning staff is amazing! The woman who cleaned our room daily made the bed perfectly, was warm, funny, kind & patient with us. The location was good-we had a car, they have paid parking available. However, just outside the gate there is plenty of free street parking, in nice neighborhood. If you want a lounge chair on the beach, be aware the charge is €12 p/p per day. Rota was lovely, lots of good food & lovely locals.

The property was in a good location next to the beach and a good walk through into the town. Slightly frustrated to discover we had to pay for the beach club and that we had to pay for the whole stay (not just the days we wanted to use it). Likewise we had to pay for towels as well which we weren’t expecting. Once there it was a nice area but there was no bar or service until 5pm (also frustrating given there was a member of staff behind the bar every day)! There wasn’t much food choice for vegans/veggies which we both are. The room was really spacious and clean and we had a balcony view that included sea/pool. Overall a nice stay just some minor frustrations around clarity if pricing and

I went to a Rota Naval Base school reunion which was hosted by the Playa de la Luz Hotel. They did an excellent job. My one complaint is that our room bill was very difficult to decipher, and after I figured it out it turned out they were charging for an extra night! In short, excellent friendly hotel, but confusing bill at check out.

This is a great resort location on the beach with two pools and two restaurants. Breakfast buffet is only EUR 10 and dinner buffet was only EUR 25 (prices may be higher in summer). The beach is walkable and about 2kms to the Rota Lighthouse. I spent the first afternoon walking along the beach to the old town and then returned by street to see the old town and newer section. One item different from U.S. properties is that neither of the pools is heated and there is no hot tub. The pools were too cold to use in January but the sun deck on roof of the beach club building was semi-protected from the winds. The staff was very friendly, professional, and helpful.
