We've just returned from Deloix Aqua Center hotel after a 10 night HB stay with the wife & 2 children.

The children are 1 & 12. We stayed in a "Family Room" with a huge balcony overlooking the pool & views of Benidorm.

Long story short - it's a beautiful hotel, gorgeous big pools, big rooms/balconies, clean, huge aircon reception area, great facilities all round & for children BUT the food could be improved.

Its definitely a favourite for spanish guests with the hotels restaurant catering for spanish guests - which is okay with us, but the Mediterranean offering we felt bland & not good quality. . was a great stay, we could of stayed longer tbh & that's rare after 10 nights away with kids.

Staff helpful & friendly. Huge outdoor pool with no "sun bed wars", indoor spa slip level pool, mini waterpark & softplay for infants, games room for juniors-teens, tennis courts & adult only pool with bar on the roof, day entertainment round pool, evening entertainment with own outdoor terrace/stage/seating.

I mean, even listing the facilities & amenities says everything- amazing hotel.

We purposely chose the location up in rincon away from the hustle and bustle of benidorm but near enough to venture into. Aqualandia was a 10/15 min walk up the hill. Supermarkets left & right with a short walk & lovely restaurants, bars, cafes in walking distance either way out the main reception. Reception will ring a taxi promptly. We visited the old town, aqualandia, mundomar, altea & albir.

We went HB & it gave great flexibility to our holiday with the option of 2 meals out the 3 offered in the restaurant. We often went for breakfast & am evening meal, but sometimes missed breakfast & had lunch & an evening meal. We was out exploring most days but made a point of eating at least one meal a day in the restaurant to keep our eating out costs down.

#Only Let Down - Food#

We always found something to eat. Some days were good with fresh grilled chicken & steaks on the hot plate. Foods not exactly bad, great desserts, decent salad station but all not very inviting or enough variety. The food also poorly labelled, its guess work on some visits & nothing about allergies.

If i had payed all inclusive i would not of been happy.

We tried lots of different food throughout our stay, we are not fussy eaters & didn't/don't expect "Full English, Burgers, Chips, Chicken Nuggets" on the menu on holiday but it was a very seafood based, lots of pork & some visits we couldn't put a meal together that made sense (if that makes sense) Food appeared to lack flavour & spice. Breakfast average, hash browns, boiled eggs, fried eggs, cold meats, cheeses, breads - good. The limited cereal, poor coffee, juice sickly sweet, fatty streaky bacon & greasy chorizo sausage - not good. "Omelette guy" unfriendly/abrupt (but happy chatting to guests in spanish) & the was Omelette poor anyway.

Plus drinks at lunch & in the evening aren't provided, you have to pay which is a little harsh as we've payed half board, not even water available. Staff in restaurant friendly & efficient.

Would I let the food put me off returning, probably not as the hotel itself is definitely 4☆ fantastic.

Great stay, loved the 10 nights, beautiful pools, lovely atmosphere, we just ate out more than planned due to restaurant predictably, lack of taste & menu.

Taxi time all the time

I was the first person to stay here when it opened and was here for 4 weeks. Amazing hotel and amazing staff and the spa was exceptional and price was incredible. Been past on a bus but never stayed again.

My favourite hotel, especially in the winter as the pool is amazing. The random breakfast items have always made us laugh. Sprouts?

Pool good - bit souless for me!

Last time I stayed about 6 yrs ago food was very disappointing compared to previous yrs. I don't like the way the Balcony is shaded.

My sister and I have not long returned from a week in Benidorm, we stayed at the Deloix Aqua Center Hotel, it really was a fab hotel, beautifully clean, staff were lovely, room was a very good size with a great balcony and was cleaned on a daily basis.
We stayed Bed and Breakfast, and the food was lovely, catered for every taste, hot or cold choices, an abundance of food was available.
It was a little too far out for us, but it was also our first time in Benidorm, so now we have the lay of the land we can make choices to suit us for next time.
We both thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and will definitely be back for a future visit.
