Family-run hotel with very friendly staff. We felt at ease. A few small points of criticism i want nevertheless note: We had a room with a sea view. But instead of the noise of the waves were often loud fan noise (humming) from the pool area to hear. Currently, it is up to hotels probably in the trend in the bathrooms stylish sliding glass doors to, so also in the galosol. The sound proofing to this doors goes unfortunately against nothing. People for their ' shops ' privacy search will do a little uneasy, especially at night. In the bathroom also much too small … read more

We were in the 4 stars galosol ( there are 3 houses : three stars; 4 star sports hotel galosol and 4 stars atlantico). Galosol the best. Size and location of the hotel great. No mass processing. Terrace with a pool, with a view of the atlantic ocean ( 1. row), with the sun for breakfast, with a little green, loungers, swing... It is nothing missing. Room renovated. Great. Bathroom with large bodenebener shower ( water tap at the washbasin too little swing, could hardly the hands under the water, but that diminishes the feel good factor not). Premises for the food also renovated. … read more

Through and through a very good hotel with a great sports offer in a magnificent location. Wonderful the rooms with a direct view of the sea! Only drawback and a suggestion: - the breakfast buffet is after 3 days boring, because despite a good deal always the same there is. Since one knows better in 4 * accommodation. - suggestion: the one in the age of the internet in a 4 star hotel for the access numbers is also from yesterday. … read more
