This was our third visit to the Columbia Beach. We love so many aspects about the hotel, but the stand out ones for us are the staff, the Freeform pool ( never feels busy as it’s so large) and the west sides architecture and village feel. The food is also outstanding with generous portions and the best half board options of any hotel we’ve come across. The suites are very comfortable and most of the upgrade charges are for the different outlooks, like sea view, garden view, inland view etc, rather than added amenities. We had a small issue with our room on arrival and were very quickly moved to a different room that was actually an upgrade, this is the sort of thing that makes the Columbia beach special. All the staff genuinely seem to want to make your stay as relaxing as possible with no request too much to ask. We came in mid September and had no problems whatsoever securing sunbeds even late morning, although on a previous visit in July this was trickier, but the pool boys are only too happy to sort some out for you. The Freeform pool on the west side is kept as a quiet pool and games and more boisterous children are directed to the other pool on the east side. This made for a truly peaceful relaxing stay. One request please, can you provide mint tea in the room, I asked but was informed it wasn’t an option. We will definitely return.
