Doubletree by Hilton Islantilla Golf Resort

Hotel staff and management excellent.

We were a group of 8 and we're allocated rooms on all levels of the hotel each had a balcony some looking over the course each had tea makeing facilities rooms were clean and we're cleaned on a daily basis showers were good hot and powerful Aircon was working and much needed no complaints

There were no drawers in the room so we had to keep sone clothes in an open suitcase. On 2 nights the bar had no baileys cream liqueur which we had been having every night. A basic drink we were surprised they ran out of.

Great hotel,friendly staff,good choice of food at breakfast and dinner. Quality of beer served in the drinks package was very poor.

We would have liked vouchers for the drinks. The wine included in the drinks package wasn’t great. We didn’t like the wine choices.

Excellent venue

All good. Great location for Islantilla golf.

Excellent single occupancy room overlooking the pool.The food is of a high standard with lots of choice and the pool area is fantastic.

Can’t fault anything about this hotel, will definitely be coming back 👌

Great hotel, welcoming staff on Reception and bar and Restaurant. Very high standards of cleanliness, comfy beds and nice rooms etc Stayed half board and breakfasts and evening meals were very good, lots of choice and catering for a variety of dietary issues. Well done and thank you!

Good well appointed hotel within a golf resort, great value for money.

A comfortable, well-located hotel, now rebranded as a Hilton. Sadly the food was not as good as on our previous stay.

Fantastic staff who were very helpful. We had an early taxi before breakfast was open so they arranged for us to have little picnics to take away. Lovely pool area minus the flies. Wide choice buffet menu included. Slight downside the there was no nightlife nearby but we did go just outside the season and it was mostly about the golf.

Everything about the hotel was excellent

We have been at this resort many times. No upgrade this year and my husband and we’re both 70 years old this year so this was our birthday treat… nothing from hotel. Rooms too hot to sleep. Buffet very reduced and the same most evenings. Little or no entertainment. Very disappointing. Roberta

The hotel was understaffed on all levels. Only BBC world news and CNN English tv channels. Although the hotel had been refurbished by Hilton, there was black mould around the bath. Room was a nice size with average balcony. The food was below average. Even if you chose an option from the griddle the rest of the vegetables etc were cold so we never had a hot meal. We always had to clear our own table because of lack of staff. They wanted us to keep our cutlery for both starter and main course, totally unacceptable. We have been to this hotel previously but the level of service has deteriorated. There was only ever one person behind the bar and there was always a queue to get even a coffee after dinner. so unacceptable. The opening hours for the restaurant was breakfast from 8am - if you had an early tee time it was difficult to get breakfast before you played. This changed the day before we left to 730am. They told us it was because it was a beach holiday hotel and changed to a golf holiday hotel later in September.

Being out of season you are never able to experience all facilities. eg Between breakfast and 6pm there is nowhere for Coffee or lunch except in the Golf Club. Their beach club is closed till April , and so on, but overall the standard in the Hotel, rooms, staff. food is high. Very busy this time in Hotel and course even for out of season and many longer term 'stayers', and of course Covid rules relaxation made it very popular even for February. Hilton refit has lightened the hotel outlook and rooms.

Basically the Hotel was closed. Only buffet, no restaurant, no pool, no bar. Buffet food was poor.

We upgraded the room and very pleased with it. Very comfortable beds . The bathroom and shower excellent.

Relaxing bars with friendly staff was very welcome after a days golf

The hotel has been upgraded and is very comfortable. The new bar design is dreadful and looks like a works canteen and the lighting is far too bright. We would not use it. It used to be comfortable and inviting. It also does not now open until 8.30pm. The hotel has been changed from primarily a golf location to one catering for families

The hotel is situated in a nice location over looking the golf courses. Hotel is clean and food in the restaurant is good and a great choice. Hotel is shutting for 4 months for a refurbishment.The only negative is the lack of entertainment at night time.

Lovely stay - Golf course great and so handy - Lovely setting. Only criticism was poor entertainment which started extremely late.

I thought the rooms were okay but need a bit of a face lift which I believe is going ahead this year starting in October. Overall not a lot wrong.

This Golf resort has everything you need. Good food and service and very comfortable rooms. There is a Spa and swimming pools, so if you want a chill down from golf for a day or two everything is there. Its about 10 min walk from a gorgeous beach and club bar and is all round a great place to be.

Great for a short break, nice big rooms and good food for a fair price!

This was a good stay for large groups of golfers but not ideal for couples The restaurant food was quite basic and there was a cafeteria feeling to the scene That's tinned fruit which was a shame when we expected fresh fruit in this part of Spain We upgraded our room to a junior suite which gave us more space but the room was tired in need of modernisation and quite basic.

good hotel, a bit old fashion but I enjoyed

Supurb, friendly , helpful staff. Nothing to much trouble. Would highly recommend it.

Hotel was in need of a bit of updating, especially in the bathrooms. Service was generally good, apart from the Italian Lounge, which was slow and chaotic. We had an incorrect bill 3 out of the 5 times we ate there. Dining room was ok until the weekend, when all the large groups arrived and made it an uncomfortable experience as a small group of 4. Also, some people f the show cooking items ran out when we were eating - at 8.30 pm. The outdoor pool area was lovely but beware there are a lot of flies.

The hotel facilities were as expected, very good, but the service was excellent, particularly in the main restaurant. We were also fed on our arrival at 1 a.m, as well as that, they kept the bar open for us for a nightcap.The buffet was one of the best that I have experienced, and together with the golf represented excellent value for money when compared to the tariff prices. The rooms were functional and clean, and pretty comfortable.

Great for golf break could not fault anything staff very helpful and friendly would use this hotel again

Accommodation was all that we could ask for.

Very clean,friendly, food very good and plenty of it. Very easy from hotel to golf course just step across the road and you are ready to play chatted to many fellow golfers and shared our experience and cost my party seem to have the best deal using your company and will definitely be returning very soon as well as recommending you service was great, great first trip overseas golf experience Thank you David Donaldson

The hotel was excellent.Rooms were very comfortable,plenty of space with good views either overlooking pools or surrounding area including golf course and club house. Staff efficient and very friendly.Quality of food was good although buffet area in general was small taking into consideration the number of people in the restaurant.Pool area was lovely,plenty of loungers nice pool bar and a great pool.

Two of the three nines very difficult.

The course was 3x9 holes green/yellow/blue we found the yellow the most difficult a lot of dog legs on yellow we found there wasn't a lot of roll on the fairway and around the greens there were a lot of repairs going on around the greens which prevented the balls travel .some of the greens needed attention as they were pitted and made putting difficult. overall it was very testing but our group enjoyed all of the courses down side most days it was a 5 HR round

Only one out of 5 rounds was over 5 hours, otherwise it was average. One of the three nines was harder than the other 2 but interesting.

We all had a fantastic time yellow and blue course as a combination is second to none.green course was more than adequate. Overall a great challenge.

Not the first time for two of us. Loved the golf though as before as last year.

Buggies a little expensive. The tees require some tlc

Mainly good. A few areas were sandy due to repair work.

We could only use 2 of the 3 courses as the Green course was under maintenance. A bit disappointed with that as didn't know until we arrived.

Very interesting holes, and you need to play well to score. Lovely golf course.

The staff on reception, bar, and trolley staff were lovely, helpful and very friendly and once again the ethos from the hotel similar. The golf course had some hard holes but they were challenging and enjoyable. Well maintained course and lovely run after the UK! Would recommend and definitely like to go again.

Had three rounds on this 27 hole course, very well looked after. Buggies available (a bit pricey) but all in all very good

Really good golfing experience

Well-designed 3 x 9-hole loops. We really enjoyed the golf course(s) and whole experience. Sadly the greens were really slow throughout. Maybe they are left longer in winter - we played 31 Oct to 2 Nov - but nevertheless they were disappointing.

Blue course a good test of accuracy off the tee - leave the driver in the bag but the other nines were slightly more open. Great set of 3 9 holes which was fun to play different combinations. True greens. Houses down the sides of most of the fairways so a wayward tee shot = lost ball. Very walkable course.

Course in good condition but had to play difficult blue three days as yellow closed for maintenance! Then large group took all morning times so out 1.30ish last two days and just too hot at this time.

Only two of the 3 nine hole loops were open so we never got to play the one course. The rounds were always pretty slow although there seemed to be quite a lot of mainly Spanish people playing 9 holes only. Therefore if you arrived on the 10th you often had to wait until some were starting their round. No course ranger checking on pace of play and one day we followed a 5 ball!!! We asked if they could be told and someone went out to them although they immediately went back to playing as a 5!!! That round was very slow. The greens were pretty dreadful - I only regret I didnt take any photos because one was half covered with pretty deep sand and the other half clear. Another was as if large chunks had been cut out - no gur so you were putting through it. There was an automatic watering system and relief was needed because it was very boggy. The red tees were always wet. Overall, although an interesting course and some tricky holes it wasn't worth playing 5 times! In fact we only played 4 times because of thunderstorms.

Courses ( 3 nines ) very good condition except maybe one or two fairways which were being hollow-tined. Greens were very good considering the amount of play. Fairways good enough for buggies so not 'on the path' restricted. Problems for some with allergy to the Pine Processional Caterpillar nests this time of year. High winds sometimes get the 'nest hair' blown about. Take spare golf clothes and Antihistamine. Despite the above always great to go here and will go again.

Very unusual layout with long walks between green and tees. Very hilly and lots of blind greens. Would not go back.

Bunkers were not in play. Also asked to reserve 2 buggies on 3 rounds. The hotel had only reserved 1 buggy so only managed to get 2 buggies on one of the rounds

Was good but only 3 courses I knew that when I booked but wasn't really enough

We have played here before the courses are challenging but enjoyable to play. The Greens were not great but it is the end of season

Surrounded by property makes it a little crowded. Some fairways needed attention.

Golf courses were in great condition and did not disappoint. Felt buggy hire was very expensive, golf club was lovely as food in there. It was all let down by food in hotel extremly poor this year. Based on that won't be back. Which is a shame as golf side of resort fabulous.

The golf course is made up with 3x9 holes. which are called the blue nine,yellow nine,and green nine. The green nine is the easiest for scoring and walking.The other 2 are a good bit harder and challenging.Overall course was in good condition.

Great course - each had its merits - having 3 different courses in one was also a bonus. Greens and fairways fab. We walked all the time with push trolleys which was fine and if there was just the two of us we were round in 4 hours. One of the 9 holes was classed as easier - ok for wild long hitters as not much trouble - more difficult for the ladies. Views terrrific - water stations on course.

The three nine holes all had challenges but not overly hard,the worst looking part was the condition of the buggie paths they were in poor condition.

With three 9 hole circuits (all of varying difficulties and terrain) you can mix and match to your hearts content. Fantastic sea views from one of the courses and all the greens were very well kept. A fully stocked Club House and Pro shop available (dangerous on the credit card), ample buggies and trollys available and very helpful staff. My third visit and will be going back again. Thank you to Will at Your Golf Travel for organising transfers and everything else, it makes the trip not having to worry about anything (apart from your putting of course, lol). All in all I would recommend this for beginners and experienced golfers alike.

We had not pre booked buggies..as 4 of our group are well in to their eighties this was a major problem..we did not get 4 full rounds in because of the lack of buggies..

Tough run of 3 nine holes, Blue was particularly tough with tight fairways and narrow greens. The greens were in excellent condition!

The course was very busy and extremely slow There were novice golfers taking up to 4.5 hours to complete 18 holes The course condition was good Unfortunately the timings went astray when we tried to play our second 9 holes Andre had to go to the golf shop to move to another course to complete our round.

Friendly pro and restaurant staff. Allowed us to play 27 very accommodating. Would recommend.

3 courses of 9 holes, blue and yellow ones pretty challenging, green one more relaxed

Tough but fair. If you hit it in the wrong place, you got punished. Look forward to playing it again sometime. Especially the Yellow & Blue course configuration.

We played the Amarillo course every day, together with Verde on 3 days and Azure on 2. Azure was definitely the most challenging and interesting. Both the other two courses had their challenging holes but definitely holiday golf. Certainly enjoyable for all abilities.

The front 9 are rightly described as the more difficult, and the back nine (19-27), as probably the more forgiving. There are some stunning holes and views, as the course has an elevated location. The condition was fine, and the rough was not too difficult to find balls.

Enjoyed our golf again staff excellent

Very enjoyable

After many photographs,we got down to golf may I say at this point I won the competition ha ha the course is 3 x 9 holes so each course was different as far as difficulty goes but very rewarding problem was trying to concentrate on the golf with the beauty of the surroundings my party will definitely come back, after other fellow golfers who couldn’t make this trip are are coming on board for our next trip Thank you again David Donaldson

Played blue/green then green/ yellow.Both combinations interesting with a variety of challenges presenting themselves Greens and tee boxes were all in great condition.Pace of play was well monitored with rounds around four hours.Overall, a very pleasant experience.

Long distance between tees,hilly not helped by weather being very hot.
