Universal Hotel Cabo Blanco - Adults Only

Great stay and great staff, will return for sure

Good atmosphere, nice staff and idéal location.

Lovely place for a quick break away. Good was amazing.

Amazing stay! The hotel is super Nice, with really good Food!!! Can absolutely recommend! Super friendly staff, nice pool - enough sun beds so that you don’t need to fight to one.

Lovely hotel and fantastic surroundings. Very quite hotel. Super possibilities for lunch. But dinner was primarily spanish and german dishes.

Cabo Blanco has the beat staff anywhere. Friendly and helpful and really make you feel like you're someone special.

Nice and friendly staff. Standard room ok but nothing fancy. I was hoping for some amenities for my girlfriend birthday as I mentioned it to Reservations team but nothing special.

Hotel was similar to pictures. Had to pay a fee to use the safe. Good location.

The hotel was very clean. The staff was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. The food was great, and the location was excellent. Highly recommended for couples looking for a nice getaway. Lots of room for bike storage in a secured room.

This hotel is in a great area with fabulous views of the sea. The double rooms are a little dated, but very clean and lovely views. The superior rooms are more modern. Swimming pool area is very clean,lovely and modern. Staff are very friendly and very helpful.

This is an adult only hotel so very quiet. Majority of German tourist stay here. The views from the pool are amazing. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The only thing needed is the gym needs an upgrade as a lot of the equipment is dated. Overall would definitely stay here again.

I was given a complimentary drink, breakfast was very good, pool in front of sea with direct view of sunset, room with very nice view.

The hotel exceeded our expectations in terms of cleanliness, professionalism and friendliness of staff and most importantly the food, well prepared quality meals, buffet breakfasts a great choice, evening meal was buffet for salad, and sweets but main meal and starters were waiter service. Superb food in the restaurant, the lamb dish was best id ever had but the lunch menu brought us back to earth, was more 3-star. Guests predominantly German speaking we were the only English couple staying at the hotel I believe. Plenty of sunbeds and comfortable areas to relax in. We would definitely return to this hotel in the future and we have never said this before - so must be good!

Nice hotel with a stunning wiew.

Nice quite hotel in a small town. Perfect for a relaxing holiday. The staff are very helpful and nice. Breakfast was a buffet with lots of choice. We also chose to ate a few nights at the hotel and the food was excellent on both occasions. Bit out the way of everything we wanted a nice peaceful holiday so suited us perfectly and is only a short walk into town and the marina.

There was small insect in my room. Asked them to switch me. Took 24 hours and agsin mew room had insect.

Very disappointed this was not an 'Adult Only' hotel which was clearly advertised as such! Only reverts to 'Adult Only' from 14 Apr 16 when 'peak season' starts. Rooms adequate but small with good Wi-Fi and were cleaned daily. TV only provided two English speaking channels (BBC news and CNN) which constantly repeated the same news! Shower would benefit from having a shower door rather than a shower curtain which tended to cling to your body. Would have welcomed more food choices during dinner otherwise food was considered good quality and plentiful. Hotel is right on the sea front (can be windy) offering lovely views and walks. Local buses available to Palmer (80 minute journey for €6.45 (single journey). All the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful and the pool area was very quiet and clean (pool was still too cold to use). Weather was very good (warm and dry throughout the day, no rain, but it was cool first thing in the mornings and in the evenings. Temperatures reached around 20°C (sun cream protection recommended due to the prevailing winds). Majority of guests were German and the area is a Mecca for cyclists at this time of year. Bicycle hire available in hotel but cheaper locally (€8 for a road bicycle from 9am - 7pm including helmet, lock and basket). No entertainment provided in the hotel during our stay (8 - 15 Apr 16). Overall a very enjoyable holiday but would not stay at the same hotel again out of season when children are permitted.

All the rooms have terrific sea views and each evening was a spectacular sunset show from the small balcony. On check-in, duty manager, was very efficient, pleasant and informative. Our room was compact but very comfortable, with quality furnishings and quiet aircon. The pool area is lovely, with lots of loungers & shades and a small pool. There is also a small, sand beach leading onto the rocks. An amazing white sand beach is 3 mins walk. Breakfast was good with a huge range of savoury and sweet foods. The omelet chef was a happy lad and made great omelets. The only let-down was the coffee which was insipid. Staying on a half-board basis, evening meals were included - food quality was excellent, and presentation first-class, with plenty of choice and variety*. Wine list was big, ranging from 9 euros up. Other drinks were cheap, as was the lunch/snack menu, so you could happily stay here the whole time. The hotel exuded a relaxed atmosphere. Clientele is almost exclusively older Germans – all pleasant. Staff was great – I don’t think I’ve been to a hotel with such friendly and efficient staff – the lovely Nicole was always especially cheery, and Arturo who was very professional. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone – it was a truly lovely, relaxing experience. *The dinner menu was given at breakfast, as some items had to be pre-ordered. However it’s only in French & German. Most of staff spoke English and would be happy to translate.

Hotel is in a nice area, on the rocky coast, superb sunsets... as a guest, you can literally jump in the sea from the terrace, about 20 meters away, for a good snorkelling session. Clean room, good breakfast, and very attentive staff. Town is 10-15 minutes walking... Perfect place for a quiet retreat

First let me say the staff at this hotel are a real asset. They were always very cheerful, helpful and polite. We arrived late at the hotel on Thursday. Upon check in we were told that we would have to move rooms on Sunday as our room was booked to someone else. The reason given was that we booked through Expedia and that people booking directly via other operators could select their rooms! We were not happy about this but as it was late we went up to the room. When I booked this hotel my booking was for a double room with a double bed. We were given a twin bedded room (uncomfortable beds). When we queried this we were told that all the rooms had twin beds. This was not what we paid for and we were very unhappy about this. Whilst the public areas of the hotel are beautiful the room was very disappointing. The décor was very dull and tired. The bathrooms was small and worn out. The second room we were given had a bathroom which was even smaller.
