We had a relaxing and very enjoyable holiday in the fantastic Higueron Resort. From arriving there the staff were pleasant, professional and very attentive.
The hotel facilities were excellent…we particularly enjoyed some delicious meals on the terrace of The Med Restaurant, listening to background music. A special shout out to Robert, our waiter, for his outgoing personality and his natural ability to engage with the guests.Thanks also to Guti and his team for such great service.
The hotel offered an extensive choice for breakfast and all areas of the hotel were spotlessly clean and maintained to a very high standard.
The Beach Club was very impressive and the free shuttle made it easily accessible. The comfortable Balinese sun beds, waiter service at the beach and the enjoyment of swimming in The Mediterranean Sea helped create fun-filled days…and many happy memories.
This is a fantastic hotel where attention to detail, from decor to comfort, offers the perfect retreat steeped in luxurious tranquility.
Thank you so much.

It’s a really good hotel with fantastic facilities. Service is good but felt underwhelming at times. Pools are great but the best one next to the med restaurant has no shaded area’s. So it’s full on sun all day every day. Spa costs extra, gym is by far the best gym facility in a hotel i’ve ever had. Infinity pool on the rooftop is cool but the beds next to it also cost extra. Would definitely stay here again!

The hotel is very modern and well maintained, however we felt that some of it was form over function; for example we were disappointed to find no parasols available at the main pool, so the only option is to sit in full sunshine, with very little shade available - this was explained away as a design feature. Then Bali Beds at the main pool are large flat mattresses, if you wanted to sit up and read, you couldn't.
Lastly we found that the hotel had very little to no atmosphere, there was no buzz to the place; sterile even. We stayed on a Monday night in August and around 8pm asked a member of staff if there was bar with some life, some ambiance, it was suggested we visit the Rooftop Bar, which was sadly dead and lifeless.
The room we were upgraded to was large and well maintained, but again it lacked any character.
Overall this hotel wasn't for us, but clearly some do like it and had a different experience to us.

The hotel is visually stunning. It is modern, elegant, and filled with beautiful art throughout. You can tell a lot of thought went into making it feel special, and the rooms are stylish and comfortable.
That said, there were several disappointments:
Most disappointing was the infinity pool, heavily promoted across the website and booking platforms, but only accessible for an extra 200 euros per use—a fact only revealed at check-in. This is not just misleading, it is FALSE ADVERTISING, and arguably illegal. Guests should not be lured in with features they cannot access without hidden charges.
The room design also lacks practicality. The toilet and shower are completely transparent, offering no privacy. Just because you are traveling with someone does not mean you want that level of exposure. In our room (406) the toilet door did not close properly, the shower leaked into the room, and the air conditioning was not working properly. On top of that, the television was very small and noticeably outdated, which felt inconsistent with the hotel’s otherwise modern design.
We were also surprised to find miniature single-use toiletries in the bathroom, which feels out of step with today’s sustainability expectations.
On the positive side, we enjoyed meals at two of the hotel’s restaurants and found the overall service to be very good. With more honesty about what is included and some practical updates to the rooms, this could be an exceptional place to stay.

We had a lovely stay at the Higueron. The pool area was fun and unique with dozens lounge style beds surrounded by water features. The room itself was also interesting and not just the stereotypical hotel design, so that was appreciated. NOTE: the shower, bathtub (with a spectacular view!) & sink were integrated into the sleeping area so if you are traveling with a young child, it may be a little tricky keeping a quiet or dark area for them.
We also loved our complementary glass of wine on the rooftop bar as part of our Hilton Gold benefits.
Wonderful stay. Thank you!
