Grand Hyatt La Manga Club Golf & Spa

Hotel facilities, food, golf, rooms… all very good. My one complaint is the service on reception. You want fast snappy service, but it was always ‘please take a seat’ and took bloody ages! Not 5* service. Just really frustrating and time consuming unfortunately

We stayed here for 3 nights. Having said that we are not golfers so it might be perfect for a longer golfing holiday but for us 3 nights was enough. Anyway it’s a great hotel, definitely 5 star. But like most golf hotels it is quite isolated. Beautiful scenery and grounds with hundreds of palms and trees but strangely lacking in flowers. This hotel, the Hyatt La Manga Club Golf and Spa is not on La Manga, La Manga is a long strip of land that runs along the Mar Menor and is a concrete jungle of low quality badly designed 60’s style properties and definitely not worth a visit. This hotel is not near La manga it’s well before it (about 3 miles off) and is as close to Cartagena (which is a beautiful city and well worth a visit). Having said that it’s a brilliant manicured resort with this luxury hotel in its centre. Our room was lovely, with some of the best range of contemporary furniture I’ve seen in a hotel room and with a great big flat screen TV. (Perfect for the World Cup). Surprisingly for a golf hotel there were lots of families with children. There is an adult infinity pool, which looks great but there aren’t many beds and access to it is via a lot of steps. But it’s still a lovely place to chill. The family pool is large but when they say family they mean it, it was full of kids and two great big inflatable flamingoes! This pool has a rope barrier strung across it from side to side, presumably to stop the little ones swimming into the deep end. But where it is positioned across the shallow steps makes getting in and out of the pool difficult for anyone old or frail. It needs removing completely leaving it up to parents to look after their young children when they swim. It’s actually quite deep for a family pool, which is unusual nowadays but there are plenty of sunbeds and there’s also a restaurant by the pool and a bar which is great. We actually spent most of our days at the adult infinity pool, it overlooks the 18th green so you can bathe and watch all the golfers show how hard the game is. We ate at the Italian on the first night the food and service was excellent. We ate at the Asian restaurant the 2nd night the Teriyaki beef was superb and again the service was great, although the restaurant lacked atmosphere. Our last night was the steak restaurant (which is actually the breakfast restaurant) food was ok, but the service was very poor. Overall the staff are good, certainly the front desk, around the pools, and the hotel bar, The Final Green, but the restaurant staff generally seem a little complacent and not quite reflective of the hotel. In fact the staff at the family pool daytime restaurant were a bit surly. After all said and done, we enjoyed our stay, it’s a lovely 5 star experience but we were glad we only booked 3 nights. It’s probably due to the fact it’s so isolated and like most golf hotels is a little short of atmosphere of an evening. (Maybe all the golfers are knackered and in bed, I can’t believe so many played 18 holes in 35 degree heat). The hotel is lovely, the grounds are spectacular, overlooking the golf course, but it’s a massive resort and it feels a little isolated.

We recently stayed at the Grand Hyatt La Manga Club & Resort to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary, and what a wonderful experience it was from start to finish. The hotel and grounds are beautiful with a lovely spa and peaceful infinity pool. We took advantage of the half board offer which included drinks, and found this very good value-we particularly liked the Asian restaurant where service and food were both excellent. On arrival, we were surprised with an upgrade to a suite to celebrate our anniversary. It was such a lovely gesture and felt like a real luxury. We were so grateful, and it made our stay even more special. I would also like to recognise three members of staff who truly made our visit memorable. Firstly, Jose Ignacio at Reception. He gave us such a warm welcome and was incredibly helpful throughout our stay. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and his professionalism and kindness created a wonderful impression of the hotel. Secondly, Cristina at the Alma Spa. Although there was no availability for treatments on our anniversary, she kindly managed to fit me in for a beautiful massage. It was an exceptional act of customer service and was very much appreciated. Finally, Cati in the breakfast restaurant deserves a special mention. She remembered it was our anniversary and arranged for us to have breakfast on a private balcony. The table was beautifully set with Cava, fresh orange juice, tea and water, creating such a special and memorable start to our day. It was a wonderful surprise and one we will always remember. The service throughout the resort was exceptional, and these three members of staff are a real credit to the Grand Hyatt. They each went above and beyond to make our anniversary truly unforgettable.

We have just returned from an absolutely wonderful week at the hotel. Spotlessly clean, very comfortable room / beds, wonderful food with breakfast an absolute highlight, and excellent service from the staff for whom nothing was too much trouble. We enjoyed watching the World Cup in the bar, lunch at the pool bar, use of the Spa, pre-dinner drinks in the Grand Club, with a walk up to the excellent Dantes and the supermarket when needed at Las Sabinas because of the hotel's location. We also enjoyed interacting with the football teams around the hotel who were always generous with their time for photos/selfies. We can't recommend the hotel highly enough. Thank you for a really wonderful stay,

We are currently staying at this hotel. We have been coming here for over 20 years. It has been our experience over the years that certain parts of the hotel and amenities are restricted to us for one or two days. This time however we are not allowed to dine on the terrace at all for the duration of our holiday. It is the only decent restaurant in the hotel. This is due to it being taken over by football teams. The hotel has set up a temporary ‘grill’ restaurant at the pool bar which is quite frankly , not good enough. We also have restricted access to the gym facilities because of the football teams. The teams have been quite rowdy in the afternoon and families have had to get their children out of the pool for fear of them being hurt during their show boating etc.
