Palacio de Sancti Petri, a Gran Meliá Hotel

Superb hotel with exec lounge providing excellent food snacks and branded quality drinks. Took suite which was fine if not a bit tired,although I suspect it had been touched up recently... furniture needs updating but this did not detract from the best hotel we have stayed in,in spain.
Definitely is a 5 star,with well trained and pleasant staff throughout..
Highly recommended.

Beautiful hotel with excellent service and staff. This is actually the first hotel that looks better in person than in the photos. The location is in a beautiful, green resort town, right on the ocean coast. The service is impeccable and all the staff is very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend.

Nestled in the heart of paradise, prepare to be amazed by the exceptional hospitality and genuine warmth of the staff. From the moment you arrive, their attention to detail and personalized service will leave an indelible mark. Indulge in opulent accommodations, breathtaking views, and a level of care that goes above and beyond. Let this extraordinary destination redefine your notion of perfection, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Really lovely hotel. Very modern and well maintained. The location on the beach is perfect and the staff are super helpful. They have a great choice of restaurants too and a chiringuito with free use of the umbrellas when you want to be at the beach. The red level option offers more and is worth upgrading to this level as you get free food and drinks throughout the day.

Magical stay, again. This hotel is located in a slice of paradise. The staff are great, but we just love the building and the grounds. Kudos to the architect and designers for creating such a wonderful space. Afternoons here, chilling by the pool under the warm rays of the sun and taking a cooling dip are simply sublime. Easy direct access to the beach with sun loungers for hotel guests, this must be one of the best and most underrated stretches of beach in Europe. If you can do Red Level, we would recommend it, it makes the stay that bit more special. We will be back again, and again… if you are looking for a hotel in this area, look no further.

Fantastic hotel, great food. Staff are very welcoming and accomodating. The facilities at the hotel are impeccable. We will definately return.

The last 4 years we have fallen in love with Playa de la Barossa in Novo Sancti Petri - Cadiz.
As far as beaches concerned, this is certainly one of the most beautiful beaches you can imagine.
Not crowded, clean, no high-rise buildings along the coast and beautiful dunes. The ultimate beach for enjoying a nice vacation.
During previous visits we got to know the “Duna beach club” from the “Gran-Melia Hotel”.
We used to have late afternoon lunches there. The seafood and atmosphere are really outstanding. Very relaxing, as they have a “Tapas like” menu which let’s you choose just the nice things you like, accompanied with a wonderful wine selection. Almost every day we got excellent service from waitress Sylvia Guzman. She really delivered “Servicio con una Sonrisa”.
During our visits we discussed where we stayed and she suggested to have a look inside the “Gran Melia” in the evening, which we did. Her suggestion proved to be valuable, because we were taken by the wonderful and relaxed atmosphere of the “Gran Melia”.
So for this year September’s vacation at Playa de la Barossa, we decided to stay in the Gran Melia. From the check-in to check-out we felt at home, surrounded by a staff who did everything to assure that all is to your satisfaction. We booked half-board and mainly used the “El Patio”, a buffet restaurant, where we found everything to our taste. Food choices and preparation are really good. Above all, having diner in the patio area is a real treat. If you sit down there in the evening, you get the feeling that you don’t need anything else.
Furthermore we enjoyed wonderful afternoons at the “Duna beach club”, where again, Sylvia made sure that we didn't lack anything.
During the day we loved the gorgeous pool and also there the service is excellent.
We are frequent travellers and have come around, so if you are looking for a relaxing vacation, we can really recommend the “Gran Melia Novo Sancti Petri”.
In our limited Spanish: “Gran Melia es Suave”.
Thanks to the Gran Melia staff for an unforgettable stay.
Special thanks to Sylvia !!

An amazing hotel and staff! We came here with the intention to stay one night and after seeing the beauty of this place and this 5star hotel in all its sense we decided to stay 2 extra nights. The beach is mindblowing, you step into the hotel and already feel relax, instalations top, food amazing. Spa great. But what i saw here is the best is their staff. We wanted to stay 2 extra nights but the hotel was fully booked. The staff tried to help us, and finally thanks to Nieves in reception who did everything to make it happen she even run to pick up my mum in the smoking zone to tell her she had found a solution. Hotel owners should reward and value such excellent staff they have cause its for that reason that people have a great time and want to come back! Hotel 100% recommended me and my mum decided to come back now every year!! Tip : pay the little extra for the room with sea view and garden it was heaven!!

Very nice hotel with direct access to the beautiful Barrosa beach ……..we got a beautiful room with a garden and access to the pool and also access to the Red Level lounge. However, I removed two stars as it is very difficult to book restaurants if you are not Spanish in high season ! They are usually booked so you do not get to enjoy the facilities of the hotel.. other than this .. everything is perfect. EDITED: changed from3 stars to 5 after the great effort done by Carolina from guest relations to find us restaurants. Today we had lunch at the beach restaurant and it was really fantastic. Thank you Gran Melia for the great attention and service and for the quick response to my comment.

Fantastic hotel with helpful & friendly staff. We were in the hotel for 3 days, and one of them I was on working remotely, spending several hours in video calls and the internet connection was perfect.

The breakfast and the other restaurants have a great food selection. The hotel has direct access to the beach. Highly recommended.

Stayed here for our honeymoon. Lovely hotel. Highly recommend the level with private adults only pool. Rooms are big and comfortable. Sent us a bottle of cava as well which was a nice touch! We didn't try all the restaurants but where we did eat was great. The seafood selection is excellent!

Seriously one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in!! The accommodation is second to none & every whim is carmtered for. The sea facing rooms are incredible & the bed is almost the size of Cadiz itself. Staff could not be more willing to help & everyone walks around with a smile on their face.
The beach is a stone's throw from the Hotel & is immaculate.
Breakfast is truly 5 stars. Cannot recommend highly enough. You NEED to come here!!

Clean friendly
After spending 7 beautiful days we couldnt fault anything. A small niggly complaint were dealt with very professionly. Our flight back home was late. So after checking out at 12 they did not only invite us to use the facility but also offered a courtesy room to shower and freshen up before heading to the airport.

King of kings hotel. GL, I don’t need to say more, with a Michel Star restaurant inside, nice stuff and a dream swimming pool of course next to the beach with direct access to it. I recommend crepes with Nutella during the breakfast and the daily dishes they prepare. Billar on the entrance and a small but complete gym. Without doubts, more than 5 star hotel, a GL.

We had a fantastic stay here. Sweet staff and the area was very calm and scenic. Heard it can be very windy at times but we had really good weather throughout our stay.

Wow so well everything, a beautiful place with incredible wonderful people working in it, everything is so airy , clean , tasty, comfortable and above all very welcoming

Excellent service, very good breakfast, direct access to the beach, amazing swimming pool... Highly recommended for taking a break and spending some relaxing days.

5 star resort with all that you would expect, buffet breakfast amazing. Toilet phones, exceptional

When you book Red level you have a higher service level. Stay was excellent.
