“We spent 4 amazing days at the Iberiostar Selection Albufera Playa hotel and resort. My family and I had a wonderful. The rooms and every corner of the hotel was impeccably clean. We enjoyed the food from the multiple restaurants. The buffet offered lots of excellent options. The specialty food restaurants also offered top shelf food. The staff was very attentive and provided superior service. We were extremely impressed by the staff’s friendliness, insightful information they shared and the time they took to get to know us as individuals instead of treating us as just another customer. In particular, Christian went out of his way multiple times to proactively suggest activities, ask if we wanted another drink (he remembered the drinks each of our family members’ favorite drinks, and always made us feel welcome! Additionally, Tolo went out of his way many times to help us with special requests we had and explained other options we had for dishes and drinks. We would definitely return to this hotel/resort!”

“We had a wonderful stay at Iberostar Selection Albufera Playa. The hotel is excellent, but the food is even better – the variety, quality, and taste exceeded our expectations every day. The entertainment program was fantastic, with plenty of activities for both adults and children. We especially appreciated how much care and attention the animation team gave to the kids, making them feel welcome and included. A special thank you to Tolo! You made our Spanish evening truly unforgettable with your energy, kindness, and great atmosphere. It was one of the highlights of our holiday. We highly recommend this hotel and would be happy to come back!”

“Absolutely beautiful hotel in a great location. A 4 minute walk to a wonderful, sandy beach. The sea was shallow for a long way out, and the waves great for play, ideal for the whole family. The whole hotel was excellent, the staff courteous and helpful. All inclusive food and drink is so relaxing for a family. The self service drinks stations were located all around the complex. The main buffet had an amazing choice of food to suit everyone, young and old, fussy or adventurous. There were always the staple dishes available for the less adventurous, as well as foods from many other countries featured daily. Everything was beautifully presented and mainly delicious. There were several other restaurants on offer for more formal dining and an excellent grill/buffet too. So much choice. The pools were all great and well maintained. The kids area was, obviously, a bit noisy but lots of fun to be had for the little ones. Lots of other quieter pools to go to for a relaxing swim. The rooftop area with a smaller pool ( to cool off) was wonderful, offering spectacular views. There were exercise classes, a good gym, kids clubs, great evening entertainment and wonderful cocktail bars. All round it was a wonderful holiday.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is our 14th visit to Iberostar Selection Albufera Park, which probably says everything about how much we love this hotel. There’s a reason we keep coming back year after year. The hotel is fantastic, the location is beautiful, everything is incredibly well maintained and, most importantly, the staff consistently make you feel genuinely welcome rather than simply another guest. A special mention has to go to Maria on Reception, who is making sure we are so well looked after and has gone above and beyond to make our stay extra special, including arranging a lovely room for us. Her warmth, professionalism and personal attention are hugely appreciated. After 14 visits, our expectations are understandably pretty high, yet the team continue to deliver. It genuinely feels like coming back to somewhere we know and love. Thank you to Maria and the whole Albufera Park team for making another stay so special. At this rate, visit number 15 already feels inevitable! 🇪🇸☀️❤️”

“We truly enjoyed our stay! The resort is amazing, with excellent facilities and a very pleasant atmosphere. In addition, all the staff members were incredibly friendly, attentive, and always willing to help with anything we needed. I would like to give special recognition to Gleici, who made our experience even more memorable. She took exceptional care of our room, keeping it spotless and perfectly organized every day. Beyond her excellent work, she was always kind, warm, and attentive, which made us feel very welcome throughout our stay. Congratulations to the entire team for their outstanding service. We highly recommend!”
