Delicious Varied Cuisine

The dining experience at Oasis Salinas Sea was good, with a great variety of food options. I particularly enjoyed the beach BBQ where the grilled chicken and fish were excellent. Breakfast had plenty of choices, and I appreciated the availability of freshly prepared dishes. The overall quality of the food helped contribute to a wonderful stay.

Relaxing Pool Area

I found the pool area to be a perfect retreat. It was well-maintained and had a great atmosphere, complete with music during the day. I loved the swim-up bar where I could grab drinks without leaving the water. Additionally, the proximity of the beautiful beach to the pool created a seamless transition for leisure activities.

Comfortable and Spacious Rooms

My room was clean, spacious, and featured effective air conditioning that made my stay comfortable. I enjoyed having a good-sized refrigerator in my room, and the daily housekeeping service kept everything tidy. The beds were firm but cozy, enabling good rest after daily adventures.

Engaging Evening Activities

The hotel offered enjoyable evening entertainment, which added a vibrant touch to my stay. While not every show was perfect, the effort put in by the entertainment team was evident and created lovely memories. It was a fantastic way to unwind after a sunny day at the beach.

5.0/10

I was thoroughly disappointed with my stay. Despite being advertised as a 5* hotel, many aspects fell short, especially the service from the staff, which was rude and unhelpful. On the brighter side, the location by the beach was fantastic. However, the dining experiences were frustratingly poor, and the overall cleanliness and maintenance of the facilities left a lot to be desired.

I had an overall enjoyable vacation at the hotel, with clean and modern accommodations and a fantastic beachside location. The staff were generally friendly and accommodating, which made my stay pleasant. However, I did run into some service issues at the pool-side food court and reservations for on-site dining were unnecessarily complicated. Overall, it was a good experience, but the dining service could use a bit of improvement.

The hotel is in a superb location, just a short walk from a stunning beach and within easy reach of the charming town of Santa Maria. The rooms are spacious and modern, but there are a few issues with comfort and amenities. While the overall service was decent, some improvements are needed, especially during check-in and dining. Despite these drawbacks, it's a great place to unwind and enjoy some winter sun.

The hotel has a truly beautiful setting with a gorgeous beach just steps away and well-kept sunloungers. The cleanliness of the hotel is commendable, and the breakfast is definitely a highlight. On the downside, the service can be inconsistent, especially for all-inclusive guests, and the dining options lack variety and are often lukewarm. Overall, while it has great potential, a few improvements are needed.
