Arminda Hotel & Spa

Guests praised the spotless cleanliness and friendly staff. They appreciated the comfortable beds but found the spa facilities lacking.

i got back from arminda yesterday and it was my second year going and i will definitelyyy be going back next year. going back to arminda is like visiting an old friend youve been dying to see for ages. there are sooo many reasons i could list to explain why, the friendly atmosphere, the clean environment, the freshly cooked food, i could go on and on. but the main reason that stuck out for me was the people, more specifically the animation team. in 2024 when i went they made the experience so enjoyable that i knew we had to go back in the slight chance that they would be back too. if im being totally honest, when we got to reception THIS year and found out the animation team were different i pretty much expected the holiday to suck because last year id also made friends with people from all over the world who despite the fact ive not seen them since, im still in touch with. in my head nothing could beat 2024's holiday. i was soooooo wrong. the hotel was and is amazing but the second me and my brother stepped into the teen club and was introduced to the new animation team i knew this holiday would be just as good if not better than last time. every single one of them were so welcoming and kind and funny. even if they had nothing in common with you they could still hold a conversation and have a laugh with you, whether you're 6, 16 or 60 years old. lorenzo, who ran the teen club, is genuinely one of the nectes, funnest people ever, even after he had to hang out with me and my brother annoying him practically everyday haha. he encouraged me to get involved with every activity with him, even volleyball, which im sure him and michele, the sport responsible would agree i am soo bad at. he was so great to hang out with the whole week and its gonna suck not being able to hang out with him again. michele is soo incredibly funny and actually not a bad dancer haha. whether he says he likes doing the shows or not, he always had the biggest smile on his face when doing the dances and comedy sketches. finally all the girls were so sweet and kind even though i didnt spend as much time with them since most of them worked at the kids club. again, they were also such good dancers as well considering its not their main job. they were also all so pretty too haha and enthusiastic, warm and lively too. these are the people that make it worth coming and i really hope that maybe one day i will see them again because even though they now have new families to focus on and entertain i know i wont forget them. so this is mainly just my extra big thanks to them for making the holiday as good as it was and i really truly recommend arminda to any families looking for a summer trip!

Mike was so good, I had a deep tissue massage for 50 mins. He really worked areas that needed attention. Superb! Highly recommended!!
