Asia Gardens Hotel & Thai Spa

★★★★★Barceló · The Leading Hotels of the World · open all year

A 311-room five-star resort of Thai-style gardens and pools beside Terra Mítica, in Finestrat, 2.5 km from Poniente beach. Nine restaurants, a Thai spa, a kids' club and a teens' club. Open since 2008.

Our verdictBook it for the gardens, the pools and the spa, and plan to stay on site: the nearest bar is 1.3 km away. In summer, get to the pool early. Don't book on Booking.com: other sites were £36 to £48 a night cheaper when we checked.

Reviews summary

What guests say

4.5on Google, 4,453 reviews
9.2Brenda score out of 10, #9 of our Top 50

We read the latest 200 Google reviews, posted between 11 Jun and 14 Oct 2026, so this is a summer read. 150 gave five stars and 27 gave one or two. The spa scores highest (15 reviews, 4.7), then location (17, 4.3) and the pools (61, 4.0). Staff come up most (95 reviews) and split opinion (3.9). The weak spots are sunbeds (10 reviews, 2.2), towels (15, 3.1), rooms (45, 3.4) and cleanliness (20, 3.5).

We count and summarise; we don't copy reviews. Averages are the star ratings of the reviews that mention each thing.

Pool and sunbeds

Can you get a sunbed?

  • Adults-only pool, family pool with hydromassage, a 12+ pool and a shallow pool
  • Two Asian-style pools heated to 30 °C; most others heated by season
  • Thai Spa pool heated all year, for spa clients
  • Only hotel towels at the pool
  • Children must wear swimwear; babies need swim nappies

10 of the 200 reviews mention sunbeds, and they average 2.2 stars. Seven describe the same thing: towels on loungers early in the morning, then nobody there for hours, so by mid-morning every bed is taken. One found the cushions dirty. If you're here in summer, go down early or book a suite with its own pool area.

What people are saying

The chatter

Asia Gardens gets far less YouTube chatter than the Levante hotels: 9 comments in the 32,935 we read, and no review video of its own in our set. Commenters call it the one five-star worth paying for, more remote and peaceful than the town hotels, and some were surprised to see it missing from creators' top-5 lists. The suites with a hot tub get a mention.
