DO NOT COME TO THIS HOTEL
- food. we booked breakfast and dinner. Always the same rubbish eggs and cold food beans were watered down. Me and my partner kept feeling unwell and being sick so highly likely got food poisoning.
In the evenings the food was no better vile to say the least. On multiple evenings we weren’t offered drinks which were expensive anyway.
The fridge in our room was full of mold so we didn’t use it at all.
On check in- you were supposed to be able to check in from 2pm we arrived at the hotel after 12 hours of travelling already to know our room wasn’t going to be ready for another 15 minutes not the end of the world. We ended up waiting over 2 hours for our room to be ready sat on dirty and smelly sofas without being offered a drink or anything.
We got told in the restaurant to move tables as we sat at a 3 persons table when there were two of us because no other seats were available. We had to stand up and eat our food that night. The restaurant staff were rude and ignored us.
We had a man from the restaurant staff run after us as we wanted to enjoy a banana in our room and got it taken off us.
The bathroom door didn’t shut right and the bath kept leaking. We had hardly any toilet roll at all times.
There is no such thing as wifi in this hotel.
The pool was absolutely freezing cold and you couldn’t even pop your toes in without shivering.
We ended up going out for most nights to eat at restaurants because the food was vile. Which we didn’t really want to do as we paid for food at the hotel but had to pay more.
Towels and bed sheets were dirty and smelly.
This place is disturbing with how it is still running is a shocker.
They call this a 4 star hotel that needs to be changed to a 1

Honest Review
From the moment we arrived, it was clear this is not a 4-star hotel — at best, I would rate it 2 stars.
The rooms are acceptable but very dated. They were cleaned daily if requested, which is a positive. However, the beds are extremely uncomfortable and the pillows are terrible — so thin it felt like sleeping without one. I had to fold mine in half just to get some support.
The food was very disappointing.
Breakfast was exactly the same every day with very limited choice.
Lunch and dinner were hit and miss, and most food was served cold.
The dining staff were unwelcoming and rude.
One of the most embarrassing experiences was being chased to the lift by a staff member because I took a single tangerine out of the dining area. You’re also not allowed to re-enter the dining room — even if you just want dessert later. If you try, you’re told you must pay extra, often rudely.
The bar staff were no better. If you’re on an all-inclusive package, they make you feel like a second-class customer compared to those paying for drinks.
On the first night, I was bitten by bugs, leaving visible bites on my arms, neck, back, and even my forehead — which completely ruined my holiday photos and comfort.
The only real positive is the location, which is excellent and within walking distance of everything. Also, reception staff were genuinely welcoming and helpful, which was appreciated.
I’ve been on many holidays, and unfortunately, this was one of the worst experiences I’ve had. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Also gym was out of order and never been open . Pool on roof is tiny and only limited sun loungers.

I was very disappointed with my stay at the Magec Hotel. The rooms looked nothing like the pictures shown on the website. In reality, almost nothing matched what was advertised online. The room felt outdated and misleading compared to the images used to promote the hotel.
The food was another big letdown. It was often cold and there was very little food on the plates. The quality was poor and definitely not what you would expect from a hotel offering meals to guests.
On top of that, many of the facilities were closed. The gym and the sauna were not open, and overall it felt like almost everything was closed or unavailable during the stay. These facilities were one of the reasons I chose this hotel, so it was extremely disappointing.
Overall, my experience did not match what was promised on the website, and I would not recommend this hotel based on my stay.

I did not have a good experience. The wifi in my room was non-existent and somehow I also had bad cell phone reception, when I asked for another option I was given the same Wi-Fi that already wasn't working. The blanket was tissue paper thin and the one thin pillow was not great. The door to the patio made noise with the wind throughout the night. The pool was glacier temperature so I could not enjoy a swim and there was only one towel in the room anyways. There was no fridge in the room. The breakfast buffet was good but when I tried to bring a plate of food to my room to enjoy on the balcony (the one bright spot in an otherwise crappy morning on very little sleep) I was chased down and loudly told I had to eat in the dining hall only. I felt like I was being publicly scolded like a child. I will never stay here again!!!!!! Not worth the money, at all.

The hotel was fine, decent location, spacious rooms and nice balcony. The cleanliness was good, a couple of small cockroaches in the room though. Ill add the fridge in the room was a nice addition. The bar staff were 10/10, the restaurant staff 3/10, not attentive, one was very rude and wouldn't let me return to the restaurant for dinner as I'd been in once and only had 1 chicken drumstick and a few Canarian potatoes, I only left to find my friend and came back in to continue dinner and was refused. The pool bar never opened on time and service was slow. The pool is fine but very small. The sauna seemed to not even exist and even if it did it was closed (according to the website). The food options were very limited compared to other all inclusives of the same budget range, and not very varied. If you want fruit as part of your meal it was awful every day. Most all inclusives have a beer tap along with wine and sangria to help yourself, this hotel has none. The location however is good, close to many restaurants, bars, shops and not too far from the beach.
All in all I wouldn't return but may suit some
