What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“We very much enjoyed our stay at Hotel Tarifa Lances. Great location, grocery store across the street, great view of the ocean, lots of great restaurants close by. A short walk along the ocean to the busy downtown areas. We enjoyed the pool both days we were there and the attendant brought us towels as soon as we walked through the gate. The front desk staff spoke very good english and were very friendly every time we walked by (fresh apples at the desk too). We wanted a second cup of coffee in our room and the cleaning staff was happy to provide 2 more coffee pods. The beds and pillows were comfortable and the room had everything we needed. Had a drink at the roof top pool bar in the evening and enjoyed the spectacular view. Would definitely stay here again”
“The place to stay in Tarifa for kitesurfing. Perfect location, 5 min drive to the city center, but also 5/10 min drive to kite spot. The comfort of a proper hotel, comfortable bed, spacious room with nice interior design. Swimming pool to enjoy during no-wind day. The whole team is also so nice. I highly recommend, the place to go for a kitetrip in Tarifa”
“Beautiful hotel, spacious, very well designed & appointed rooms, stunningly decorated and well situated. Great staff, polite, friendly and helpful, and very competitively priced. 100% recommended.”
“Overall, this is a nice hotel. The staff needs additional training or they should be replaced. I live in Marbella and went in person one week before our scheduled stay in an attempt to pay for an upgraded room. It was like I was asking them to send me to the moon. Ultimately, the man at the front desk said he would send me a link prior to my stay so that I could pay. Of course that link never came. Upon checkin, I spoke to a lady (young) at the reception desk. When I said I was supposed to have an upgrade, she said, "who did you speak to". I said the guy you were working with one week ago and you were sitting right there. In the end, I did pay for a receive an upgrade, and the room was nice. That is my feedback. A nice property, great location with a staff that does not measure up.”
