H10 Blue Mar Boutique Hotel - Adults Only

“Relaxing stay”

Great service, very friendly staff! Hats off to Oriana, Ana and Pilar that went above and beyond to make us feel welcome!

“Quality food, quality experience at a good price”

Amazing food, friendly staff, good spa and pool. Right next to a lovely beach, local amenities and beautiful scenery. Quiet, but my visit was out of season. Good value for money.

This is our second trip to this hotel and it certainly will not be the last. The hotel is so clean and the staff are professional and welcoming. It is quiet and so relaxing. The breakfast has everything you need, fresh fruit, cereals yoghurt, freshly made omelettes and so much more. The pool and outside area are clean and tidy and the rooms are cleaned daily. If you are looking for somewhere peaceful and relaxing then this is the place to go. The beach is two minutes walk and I could actually hear the sea in my room at night. We cannot wait to return.

Overall impression The hotel looks lovely at first glance and the staff are genuinely its best feature. Everyone we dealt with was friendly, helpful and professional, and the cleaning team in particular did a brilliant job every day. Unfortunately, despite the great service, several things stopped the stay from being truly enjoyable. Room We were given a complimentary upgrade to a "Chill Out" sea view room with access to the terrace and Bali beds. It sounds fantastic on paper, but in reality the setup doesn’t really work. The terrace is completely shared and sits right in front of the room’s balcony, so you have no privacy at all. People walking past can easily see straight into your room, and the thin curtains do nothing to block this. The hotel also doesn’t seem to enforce its "no bed reservation" policy, so guests often claim the beds all day. The area wasn’t cleaned all week either, and after a storm, debris was left scattered around. Guests should be made aware that this terrace is communal, not private. It would make a lot more sense if drinks could be ordered directly to the Bali beds through an online service, which would actually make the area feel like an upgrade. Inside, the room looked fine after a light refurb, but the air conditioning and plumbing really let it down. The air conditioning was both loud and struggled to cool the room properly. I can see this being a real issue in the height of summer. The pipes also make constant gurgling and echoing noises when neighbours use their bathrooms, which made sleeping difficult without earplugs. Atmosphere and ambience The hotel is peaceful but feels lifeless, more like a retirement home than an adults-only getaway. There is no background music around the pool even though speakers are there, the bar TV was never on, and the entertainment consisted of just two live acts in a week. Adult-only does not need to mean boring, and this place could really do with a bit more energy. We also visited H10 Casa del Mar during our trip, and although it is not adults-only, it had far more life to it, with music, movement and a generally happier vibe. It felt like a place people actually wanted to spend time in. Here, it often felt like the hotel goes out of its way to cater mainly for older guests, which might explain the subdued feel. That is fine for some, but not a sustainable approach if they want to appeal to future visitors. Food Breakfast was good quality, though identical every morning. Dinner, on the other hand, was underwhelming. The hotel rotates just three à la carte menus with one vegetarian option on each, and ingredients are clearly reused. You will spot the same mushrooms or chicken turning up again the next day. All of the meat and fish we ate was overcooked, and every dish came with the same frozen vegetable mix. It was disappointing enough that we downgraded our board, though to be fair, the reception manager handled this really well and offered resort credit, which we appreciated. Given the quality and freshness of the food, it’s not surprising that some guests have reported feeling unwell after dining here. Verdict Overall, it is a clean, quiet hotel in a great location with excellent staff who work hard to keep guests happy. But it lacks atmosphere, variety and attention to detail. With some investment in ambience, better food, and a rethink of the "Chill Out" rooms, it could be so much more than it is right now.
