The hotel is very well located in Noja. The room was great. We had a gorgeous view on the ocean. We took twin beds and that wasn't the best for a couple but now I know for next time. The staff is very kind and helpful. The restaurant of the hotel had a delicious breakfast and good service. Nearby there is a bar where you can get drinks with a view from the beach. The surfing school is very close and nearby you have a small supermarket and several good restaurants. Not everything was open during the Easter break but it was enough. There was daily room cleaning. For the hair dryer, you could go and ask at the reception to get one.

In terms of facilities, a tea kettle would have been nice. In Noja you do not have a lot of taxis, and they are more or less price makers. It was impossible to have a taxi to go from the hotel to the bus station which is 20min away by foot or to a location 15min away from the hotel. The taxi is quite expensive and they won't accept any trip. So make sure to book yourself a sit in the bus and travel lightly as you'll need to walk 20min to the bus station.

From the first moment on you feel at home in this hotel. The blue colours of the decoration gives it a very "vacation" feeling , the staff is very helpful and friendly. We stayed there in May so it was very calm and we had the beaches around the hotel (almost) for us alone. Only some steps away from the hotel you can find beautiful beaches and paths along the sea. The food at the hotel is very good, both the breakfast and the dinner, and the staff at the restaurant very helpful and friendly. The view from the room and from the restaurant over the sea is amazing.

Even though the food was very good, it seemed that due to the low season, there was not the full selection of food available, so in summer this must be better

Location. Right opposite Playa de Ris, one of our favourite spots in Spain, which is just beautiful and was surprisingly quiet for early June. The hotel is very clean, and the staff were courteous and helpful. There's a nice bar that also serves food and a more formal, a la carte restaurant. The bedroom was "no frills" but spotlessly clean. I'm not sure that it was air conditioned, not that it was needed. The price was very good value for money and included breakfast. Would definitely recommend.

Our room (east facing) was a little noisy in the evening since it was above the bar, although it went quiet at midnight. I don't know if the bar is open until later during peak season.

The owner's welcome, so unusual in a seafront location. Perfect spot, our balconies with frontline view of the beautiful bay. The sea was warm and calm with plenty of sheltered places to sit and relax. Private parking offered (fee) but parking right outside was free in mid June. Half board option taken with two good choices of starter and main courses. all tasty and enjoyable.

Breakfast at 8.00am would have been better instead of starting at 9.00am. Not a criticism really, that arrangement may suit a lot of people but not our personal choice.

Found Pineda Playa more or less by chance, but what a wonderful find, especially if you have a seaview and balcony (room 210 is splendid for its views of beautiful Ris beach). The hotel is right on the front, with a cafe overlooking the waves, its own restaurant and a quiet garden area. Parking too (reserve in advance). It is an easy walk to a couple of other good restaurants. Room is of a fairly simple standard but has all the usual facilities. Very friendly and helpful reception staff - thank you Elena! We hope to go back.

Would have liked a ceiling fan and a bedside light both sides of the bed. There is a bit of noise from the cafe tables below, so worth being on the second floor if possible.

Great location, I would say the best in town. Basic accommodation, but exceeding its two stars rate. Includes a bar and restaurant with terrace and amazing view over the beach, which is just in front. Friendly and helpful staff.

Our room didn't have a balcony or sea view, unlike most of the other rooms, but we got it at the last minute as the only one remaining; I would suggest to request it when booking in advance. There was no space for parking in the hotel car park, but we managed to park easily in front of the hotel for a fee of €5 a day.

Fantastic location overlooking a beautiful beach. Our room had amazing dual aspect views that really took our breath away. Lovely restaurant and bar, we ate the most delicious fish, beautifully cooked. And the staff couldn’t have been more helpful, extremely welcoming and sending on a couple of things we left behind.

Nothing! It might be a bit of a walk from the centre for some people but it was fine for us. Well worth a bit of a detour!

we loved the location, right on the beach.the pinchos in the bar were really tasty. and the breakfasts were tasty and plenty of choice.

maybe it was late in the season but there were no shops anywhere nearby that were open and no other restaurants. the food in the evening in the hotel restaurant had a limited choice.also the tea anywhere we tried was like dishwater .

Stunning location. Clean and comfortable room with great view. Lots of friendly staff. Nice food for half board. The beach is just beautiful. Very welcoming to young families.

A little distant from the main town. No laundry facilities available. Limited public transport options to Santander Airport.

We were lucky enough to be given a room with a balcony on two sides - the view was stunning along and the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks very therapeutic. The room was adequate with a good-sized work station for one. Secure off-road parking.

Sound insulation and people in the adjacent room smoking on their balcony.
