There is absolutely nowhere on the Costas that is anywhere like Moraira. And the La Sort hotel is without doubt the best place to stay in Moraira. Despite what other ‘Moriara hotels’ claim in their advertising, none of them are close enough to town for you not to feel a bit isolated. In contrast, you can stroll out of the La Sort and, depending on your mood, immediately be walking along the sea-shore or the beautiful marina or around shops and restaurants. The hotel has eleven rooms that have uninterrupted views of the beach and get the afternoon sun, while the other eleven rooms look across a wide boulevard with palm trees and fountains and get the morning sun. My partner and I stayed for a month in one of the beach-facing Penthouse rooms that come complete with a good-sized roof terrace and automatic awning – we’d suggest that it’s well-worth the extra.

The hotel-style is ‘modern chic’ throughout – but also has nice little practical touches like free broadband (easily fast enough for Video Skype or online TV), a good-sized digital safe, quiet individually-controlled central air-conditioning, automatic air-fresheners (which actually smell nice!), and beach-towels and parasols available at Reception if you need them. The breakfast is far broader and more substantial than you’ll find in many Spanish hotels – if you want eggs, bacon and sausage then they’re there, as is wonderful French bread and croissants, fruits, cereals, cheeses, cold meats and, of course, superb Café con Leche. You may see a few other reviewers’ comments about there not being coffee or tea making facilities in the room. This frankly is typical of even the very best Spanish hotels. The locals don’t tend to drink tea and I suspect wouldn’t dream of insulting their guests with instant coffee. If you fancy a brew-up in your room (this applies anywhere in Spain) we’d recommend bringing a small travel kettle with you.

In total contrast to one reviewer’s negative comments about parking and the attitude of the manager and staff, we found both to be excellent. There is a tremendous amount of free parking in Moraira. Having parked in front of the hotel to check in and unload your luggage, we would recommend you park longer-term in one of two places (each is only a couple of minutes walk away, and both appear completely ‘safe’). The first is a huge car-park up the street. On Fridays they hold the Moraira market on the part of the car-park that is FURTHEST AWAY from the hotel – so you would need to move your car a few metres to the part of the car-park that is NOT used for the market if you’d parked in the wrong place. Hardly very difficult – and (despite what the irate reviewer claimed) we found it to be very clearly signposted in English. Anyway, if you don’t want to park there then there’s another large area of free parking amongst the pine trees on the beach beside the hotel. Although this is mainly used by people visiting the beach, it’s also ideal if you’re staying at the La Sort. Street parking (marked with Blue lines) is all Pay-and-Display.

And finally, we found all the staff – whether the cleaners, those on Reception or the owner Juan himself – to be highly attentive, always courteous and professional, and extremely friendly. In conclusion, we found the La Sort to be a superb base and thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

What a shame!! This hotel is in a beautiful location, And the hotel itself is very nice and clean, But i am afraid that's all the good i can say about it! We landed ourselves a nasty £120 fine when the staff decided to tell us to park our car in a designated car park that was actually out of bounds on fridays for a market! And consequently towed away! Then the tow people damadged our HIRED car and we had to pay an excess of £400 to the car hire company!! The manager was incredibly rude and totally refused to be held accountable for the fact that his staff didn't warn us about the market (you tend to take somebody's word for it if you're not familiar with the area! Despite the SPANISH signs! We didn't scream & shout, Just tried to reason with him but he refused to take any responsibility ( bet he's onto a winner with the tow people!) The room service was very overpriced and there are no coffee making facilities in the room! No food was incuded not even breakfast and we paid nearly £900 for 5 nights!!

We have stayed in Hotel La Sort for many years, after trying all of the hotels in the area, La Sort wins hands down, in terms of location, quallty, value and service. The staff are always professional and friendly, more similar to a 4 or 5 star hotel. The location is perfect, right on the beach , it's best to book a beach facing room, so that you can go to sleep to the sound of the sea.

I stayed in Hotel La Sort in Moraira with my husband for our wedding anniversary after being recommended by a friend. We were not disappointed! The hotel is a lovely, modern, boutique style hotel and fairly small with only 22 rooms. We had a Penthouse room with beach view and private balcony and the view was out of this world. We were able to take breakfast one morning on our terrace which was lovely, and the next morning had breakfast in the dining room. Breakfast was reasonably priced at 11€ given the large selection of hot and cold food on offer, and the coffee was delicious. The rooms were very comfortable with a modern design and a Jacuzzi bath, some English tv channels and a well-stocked mini bar. Everything was very clean and the staff were all very friendly and attentive - we will certainly be going back there again!
