Akeah Hotel Rosamar Ibiza

"Used to be such a good hotel and, as an earlier review states, if the the rest of the hotel was like the entrance, it would be a very different place. Since the hotel was sold several years ago, the standards have continued to go downhill consistently. On this recent visit, the following were noted: mirror missing in bedroom, broken door frame, broken door stop, roof tiles in bathroom a mess and no plugs for sink or bath."

"I would say that this hotel only just scrapes in at being a three star establishment. If the whole place was as inviting as the entrance, lobby and staff then the Rosamar would be receiving a much better review from myself. However, the biggest thing that lets this place down is the view - it overlooks a huge construction/demolition site with graffiti scattered all over it. Not the hotels fault, but something needs to be done to resolve the eye saw as it does spoil the holiday feel. The hotel’s rooms and pool area really need some attention. Sun loungers need a good clean or new ones bought and although the swimming pool is clear in the morning, it doesn’t last that long and throughout the day it becomes more & more mirky/unappealing. The music system around the pool is barely audible, so everyone seemed to drown it out with their own music which became a mashed up noise! The lights on all of the outside balconies flicker, not sure if this is an electrical problem and the hot water was on an old gravity fed system, which meant there wasn’t always hot water on demand. The bath in the room had no bath taps to have a bath in and no basin plugs are provided. No kettles, cups or drinking glasses in the room and toilet paper was not always replaced when running out. The wardrobe in our initial room had a door that had holes in it filled with polyfiller, cracked walls and ants everywhere (including the fridge). Some of the rooms have a locked door in them that at some point must have been access to the next room. Although secure, it was paper thin & we could loudly hear everything from the neighbours both morning & night, so didn’t get a great sleep (a couple of hours each night). Finally, the breakfast was 50/50, plenty of choice on the continental side (drinks, bread, pastries, granolas, fruit, chilled meats, salad, etc), but the hot breakfast side of things were basic & faux-par (either over salted or watery). On the plus side, upon airing our concerns the hotel staff were very friendly & accomodating & they did relocate us to another room, which was an improvement. Personally I just think this hotel is a little tired and could really benefit with some renovating, modernising & concentrating on those important little extras in certain areas as it could potentially be so much better."

"The hotel staff were lovely, very friendly, and genuinely helpful whenever we spoke to them. Unfortunatkey We had ants all over our sofa and bed. We told the staff more than three times, and while they kept reassuring us it was being sorted, the issue was never fixed. It completely spoiled our experience. I understand that Ibiza is a party island, but you cannot expect to get any sleep here. Guests come back from the clubs at 6:00 AM making a massive amount of noise and waking everyone up. The staff do not seem to ask anyone to be quiet or manage the noise in the corridors. The breakfast was not good at all. The food selection was very poor and disappointing. Location was perfect for us with fantastic options all around. Final Verdict:While the staff themselves are great, I would not stay here again. Between the bugs in the bed and the uncontrolled noise at 6:00 AM, it is impossible to relax or sleep."
