Barceló La Nucía Hills

Barceló · season not confirmed

A Barceló hotel of suites and apartments in La Nucía, inland next to the sports city. It is not in Benidorm: Poniente and Levante beaches are both about 5 km away on our map. Several outdoor pools, a rooftop, a spa for over-16s and a 24-hour gym.

Our verdictBook it for peace, big rooms and staff that guests rate highly, and bring a car or budget for taxis: there are no bars within 300 m. The catch is distance, plus a morning towel-on-the-lounger habit that the hotel's rule doesn't always stop. We have no price data; breakfast is not included in room-only rates.
  • La Nucía, not Benidorm
  • Several outdoor pools
  • Spa, ages 16+
  • 24-hour gym
  • About 5 km to the beach

The weakest spots are value (10 reviews, 4.0), entertainment (4, 4.0) and the spa (7, 4.3). Reviewers who mention location like the quiet but say you need a car or a taxi for everything.

Pool and sunbeds

  • Several outdoor pools
  • Gastrobar by the pool
  • Spa: mini pool with whirlpool, sauna, Turkish bath and a water circuit with a heated pool
  • Spa is for ages 16+ and costs extra
  • 4 massage rooms

10 of the 200 reviews mention sunbeds, averaging 4.3. Six talk about reserving: putting towels down is banned, but some say families still claim beds before the lifeguard arrives and keep them all day. Three say beds are easy to find, and two found them short. Only some junior suites come with their own sunbeds.
