Pernera Beach Hotel

The accommodation impresses with its cleanliness, friendly staff, and convenient location near the beach and amenities. Guests appreciate the spacious, modern rooms and comfortable amenities but mention varying room types.

At the hotel at the moment (383), here for a week and in general the hotel is decent. Food: we only ever ate at the snack bar from 14:30 and the buffet restaurant in the evening and food at both was decent. Drinks: Were fine, a lot of variety but there was a lack of consistency when making cocktails. The draft soft drinks were tiny with 50% of the volume filled with ice. All other drinks were a reasonable size. Rooms: Aircon: I'm amazed people have said the air conditioning was OK. I admit I'm not used to hot places and don't cope well with heat, it's been 35-36c all week, but I'd expect the aircon to at least do what it says it can do. 1st time I asked if aircon could be looked at a maintenance guy came and said it was broke, he did something and it did seem to approve by about 1c. So you've got a panel saying 20c, the room temp saying 23c. Asked again whether it could be lowered, they sent 2 other people who showed me how to use the panel... "I know but can it get any lower than 23c? No" The only place with decent aircon is the reception area. So far I've had 5 nights of awful sleep, another 2 to go. Also had friends in the swim up room who's aircon didn't go below 27c?! Bed: Decent enough, I believe there is a pillow service if you need something different. Cleanliness: Hit and miss, right now I can see long black hairs on the floor (which aren't mine) , a dead fly, other debris Bathroom: No cold water from the tap, shower floor is floaty like it has trapped air pockets it, but other than that it's fine. TV: LG smart TV, locked down to hotel menus. HDMI connections can be used. Miracast doesn't work. Safety: Lamp has single insulated cables on show. Staff: All the service staff are polite and hard working, can't fault them. Wifi: Connectivity seems decent enough. My name has an apostrophe in it and they use Surnames for the password, their system can't cope with ' so the reception staff signed it in with a different account. Pool: I don't mind having a "Booking System" for the sunbeds but I seen beds claimed and unused all day some days. They should implement a "Not been there in an hour, the towel is removed" Entertainment: They do a decent enough job and the staff work hard, everyone enjoyed it. Parasols are not movable, beds can be loved to follow the sun. Toddler pool isn't covered, has no shade. Kids pool isn't covered, has no shade. Bar area has a handful of tables in shade so are in high demand when the snack bar opens. There are lots more tables and chairs in the sun which everyone avoids until the sun has set. Location: Good location, beach is a 5min walk away. 10min walk to water sports hut. 10min walk to bars, restaurants and shops. Suncream is €18 for Nivea (200ml) €14 for Malibu (200ml) and that's in all local shops. There is a ramp down into the sea a minute from the hotel but don't walk down bare foot! Wristbands: These do my head in, are there really that many people trying to get free food and drink they need to use
