Insotel Tarida Beach Resort & SPA♡

Lovely hotel!

10.0

We love everything about this hotel! This time we had a swim up room which was brilliant, we made holiday friends with the oter families using these pools. The beach side location is lovely as Cala Tarida is beautiful. Even at the open pools you could always get a sun bed. The food at the buffet is great and we ate once in the Italian whist we were there. The reception is a lovely chill out area, that smells great! We used the spa a couple of times for massages, I would like to give special thanks to Irerive, best massge ever! We would also like to mention Jana from Guest Relations, she went above and beyond to ensure we were looked after during our trip.

Swim up room

8.0

We tried a swim up room this time and really enjoyed it. We had big plans to go out and explore the island but it was just so hot that for kids the pool was a far better option and we went between there and the beach. What was concerning however was that some guests jumped from pool to pool, which involved jumping from a height several times off of slippery tiles at the edge of the infinity pools. This not only looked extremely dangerous but was also a nuisance, as each pool should only be shared by the guests who have access to it from their rooms. It would be good if it was made clear that this is not allowed as it affected the comfort and safety of guests, especially younger children. The food was good, but I did feel that it wasn’t as good as a previous visit. However I enjoyed all of the fish which tasted fresh, and I really liked the Mexican, Asian and Balearic theme nights. Staff were friendly and kind but sometimes at meal times it was quite difficult to make a drinks order as it was so busy. I also really felt for some staff who looked so uncomfortable in their uniforms, some were soaked right through with the heat. It would be good if they could wear branded shorts/short sleeve shirts - it could still look professional and keep them cool. I felt the entertainment was a bit flat and again not as good as last time, but this could be to do with people watching the World Cup instead of the entertainment.

Another great holiday here

Having returned to the Tui Blue at Tarida Beach for our 3rd year; we are again really impressed. The resort is extremely clean and well kept and this has made our stay perfect. We choose to spend our days up at the retreat as it’s a little calmer than the main pool; although a lot more fun at the same time. Our 10 and 7 year old just love the water park; albeit it small; it’s still plenty of fun for their ages. The restaurant and bar is perfect for lunch time and the staff are a lot friendlier than you’d find around the other pools and restaurants. Ramon is a credit to the hotel and goes beyond expectations. His friendly manner to both adults and children make the holiday. Our children look forward to seeing Ramon and his service is second to none. The staff serving lunch are also a credit and are very helpful. The retreat is very clean and is continually cleaned throughout the day. The evening entertainment could be better but this doesn’t put us off. The rooms are cleaned daily with a choice of fresh linen and towels. All staff are very friendly. Compared to our usual visits which are slightly out of season; it was very busy here on this occasion but this is to be expected at the beginning of school holidays. This was evident in the main restaurant at breakfast and dinner as the staff looked a little over worked and under staffed but this is not a criticism to them personally. The food was still amazing as always and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Poached eggs and avocado on an all inclusive breakfast is definitely my highlight 🥑 We will be back ☀️

Another excellent stay

I have visited this hotel on many occasions over last 10years. The hotel is excellent and in a beautiful location. You walk straight out the hotel onto a lovely beach. Facilities at the hotel are excellent. We travelled as a family, 2 adults and 2 children 7years and 10years. They both loved the hotel and had great fun at The Retreat with the pools and slides. Theres a good variety of food and restaurants to eat from. Food is a very good standard. The rooms are spacious well equipped and comfortable with ice cold air con. We particularly enjoyed The Retreat, Ramon at The Retreat is extremely welcoming and runs an excellent bar and restaurant which although is busy is always clean and tidy and no queues for drinks. Ramon is a credit to the hotel. We will be returning again next year.

Great family stay!

2nd year here and a great time again! Staff are all so friendly and helpful, food and drinks selection is fantastic, rooms and grounds are immaculate! Pool areas well staffed and clean and lovey atmosphere. Amazing sunsets from rooftop sunset bar! Perfect holiday !

Great location and views, food not so good and quite expensive.

6.0

The strengths are great - really beautiful location - the forest is lovely and we had a wonderful room with a roof which looked out over the forest and the sea (1136). The downside was that the cost was really high for the quality of the experience. The food is mediocre as are the drinks. It felt not at the levels of 5* all inclusive and we paid a lot (but didn't book a package deal so perhaps you can get it for a much more affordable rate. I did like it but wouldn't spend that level of money on it again.
