I should have read the reviews

We really liked the location right next to the beach but Camino walkers beware that it is located on top of a hill with a steep driveway. Not for weak or tired knees. However, the view from the room was amazing so I guess that's what you're paying for.

Beautiful location but a slightly tired Hotel. Beware the spa facilities incur an extra charge, not included in the rate

Brilliant setting, and a nice spa experience – even though it was not included in the price.

Good solid hotel in a fabulous spot. Pity the restaurant and swimming pool have closed.

Zumaia, a port with a history, a fascinating old town (pueblo) and two superb beaches, was a real find and this hotel was perfectly situated in a spectacular position above the surfing beach and a very short walk from the centre, with bars and restaurants and swimming off the sea wall. The room at the back of the hotel, while visually nothing special, was comfortable, with silent air conditioning and a good bathroom. The front desk was staffed and helpful. If you want a fabulous view you can just step out on to the hotel's private terrace.

Views are amazing. Personal is super kind. Rooms are clean and nice. There is an option to park inside, so it's great. Very close to the restaurants and supermarkets. It's right by the beach and breathtaking paths for walks.

Great Location and Views

This was a very strange hotel experience. When we arrived in mid-July, what you'd expect to be peak season the place felt oddly quiet, almost like it was closed. The restaurant wasn’t operating, bar was also closed and breakfast couldn’t be booked through Booking.com. However, you could still show up and pay €15 per person, which felt a bit off. That said, the front desk staff were really kind and helpful. There’s on-site parking, which is a plus, though the entrance is quite narrow but manageable with normal size cars. The absolute highlights were the location and the beautiful view from our room. It’s a shame the overall vibe didn’t match the potential of the setting.

Location on the very shore of the ocean with a beautiful view

Standard hotel room. A comfortable bed. Nice bathroom. The main advantage of the hotel is its location on the very shore of the ocean.

The hosts were very kind and nice. The location is amazing, nested on a cliff with access to trails along the ocean, the views are majestic.
