El Cortijo de Zahara by QHotels

Everything was great (except the weather, rather cloudy); location, view, a spacious nicely decorated and very clean room (junior suit), swimming pools, plenty of terraces with beds, very elaborate breakfast, friendly and professional service. The only thing i was missing was a gym.

nada

Peaceful and beautiful hotel. Very good place to get away from the crowd and just relax.

The mattress and pillows could be better. Mattress was kind of hard and pillows were thin.

Second time staying here, good service, clean, best views

Calm, good location, breakfast

Poor internet , scarce storage for putting clothing away, in-room telephone didn’t work

- rooftop swimming pool with beautiful view - very helpful and kind receptionists - great breakfast - 5min walk to stunning beach

- shower water temp was terrible. It would get boiling hot and then cold every few seconds. Was impossible to shower

Everything is just perfect, I would come over and over again here. The room, the amazing breakfast, the pool with the view, the garden, the extra restaurant and bar. Perfect without doubts.

location, fabulous views beautiful gardens and pool areas very attentive staff

restaurant was good except for the starter, we chose goats cheese salad with camaralised onions to share. it came as if someone had opened a packet of supermarket salad and dumped in on a plate with a small slice of cold goats cheese on the top and raw onions. apart from that the steak and fish that we had was excellent. Although the hotel is beautiful don't expect a comfortable night's sleep if you don't like hard beds and poor quality pillows. real shame as this is almost a perfect hotel. But a big thing is having a good night's sleep so one can enjoy the hotel. Maybe more wine at dinner is the solution

The staff was amazing and the place was clean and beautiful.

The food at the restaurant was the worst we had our entire time in Spain. Also a bit out of town and hard to do anything without a car. Felt more like a resort than a Spanish hotel. Wasn't very cute and homey.

I felt very well looked after particularly by those working on reception and at the restaurant for dinner and breakfast.

The suite was lovely although not soundproof.

I love absolutely everything, the property is sublime, breakfast was sensational and the hotel kindly upgraded our room as it was a special occasion and we was only staying at the property for one night, but what a beautiful romantic night it was❣️

The breakfast was great quality, fresh & chilled orange juice was a real bonus. Bread types were plenty and good quality. The Deli option broad and good quality. The Cuban cook showed such a positive vibe!

Loved the tranquility of the hotel and the room (220) was sensational with an amazing sea view.The room was very clean and comfortable and the staff were helpful, especially behind the reception desk when we were trying to get a taxi.We received cava or wine and cake each day which was completely unexpected and lovely.

We were very disappointed that the bar for the rooftop pool terrace wasn’t open on the Sunday afternoon when it clearly said it opened on the weekend. No music, no staff and so if we wanted a drink we had to walk to the other pool.Breakfast was fine. If you wanted something else that wasn’t on the buffet it was a bit chaotic as you had to ask a member of staff who then went and ordered it for you.

I will never come back

a very tired and old fashion hotel. Rooms were noisy. You can listen to all your neighbours through doors and vents.

Great location, excellent parking. Very helpful staff. Excellent breakfast buffet.

One poor meal in La Bodega. Understaffed and both dishes were poor. A gazpacho with so much raw onion that there was no other taste, and noodles which were so over seasoned as to be almost inedible… chef needs to taste what is being plated. I’d normally have returned both dishes, but with only two staff serving a full restaurant it would have been unreasonable to start that conversation. The only blemish in an otherwise relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Place is nice, staff is nice and doing really hard and solid work. Breakfast was one of the best I ever had in Hotel. There is many things that is done right in this place and I can see management is trying really hard to make this place great.

So WIFI is a joke. TV restarted every 20-30 min. My partner at last meal got something not fresh and got sick. Rooms are clean and good but some parts of the room should be "refreshed". SPA was not available for us because it was almost impossible to make reservation. Parking spots are problematic - they should be some info if there is free spot or not.

The hotel offered excellent breakfasts, with a wide variety of options to choose from each day. The location was fantastic, just a short walk from the sea, allowing us to enjoy breathtaking views throughout our stay. Overall, the combination of delicious food and the hotel's stunning surroundings made our experience truly memorable. It was my husband's 40th birthday, and the hotel staff surprised him with a special gesture, which was incredibly thoughtful. We truly appreciate their kindness and are very thankful for the surprise.

The fridge could have been placed somewhere other than inside the wardrobe, as it took up too much space.

Absolutely everything about this place was amazing. We were a bit put off eating in the onsite restaurant from other reviews but it was amazing food, yes limited choice but what they served was fabulous. The sky bar with infinity pool was a perfect oasis of tranquility, we will definitely be back

If I had to pick one thing, and I'm being very picky (!) the outside patio furniture was not to my personal taste...and that's it!

Stunning … the views were superb

The music around the pool was often too loud … pop music. Suited the staff better than the clientele.

A nice place to stay to enjoy Zahara de los Atunes. The rooms in the historical cortijo are fantastic, and the facilities beautiful, with great views. Overall a very nice stay in Zahara.

The new buildings were not build with the same charm of the old cortijo. I would recommend refreshing installations to keep the style. The breakfast area was noisy and dark, affecting the overall experience. I would recommend rethikning the overall option for breakfast and find a different location that keeps the charm of the cortijo.
