We have just arrived home after staying at BQ Delfin Azul for one week with our 11 month daughter. On arrival, we were greeted at reception by a welcoming lady - check in was quick and easy. We had to pay a local tax fee which we weren't aware of until arrival which was around €50 for us all for the week. We were allocated room 205. The room was clean and modern but very small and felt extremely cramped with a pram and a travel cot to fit in. The travel cot had seen better days and had a hole in the side but it did the job. We had nowhere to store our suitcases due to lack of space so we had to leave them outside on the balcony for the week. There was no kettle so we had to hire one for the baby's bottles which I think cost €25, but we received €10 back on return. We had forgotten to bring towels for around the pool so we had to hire them - it cost us €20 each for the week but we received €10 each back on returning them. We were a bit miffed when later saw towels from the nearby shops were €5 so it would have been cheaper to buy some we could keep. The bed was comfy and big. The maids did a good job and came daily except but finish around 2pm. The TV had English channels which was good. The view from our balcony wasnt the best, but we didnt use it anyway apart from to store our luggage and dry our clothes. We also had to put a stool out of the room on the balcony to try and make a bit more room. There was a safe in our room but it was locked so I guess you had to pay extra to use it. Breakfast was good with a choice of foods - bacon, sausages, eggs, cereal, toast, biscuits, pastries, churros, cheeses, meats, hot drinks, yogurt, fruit etc. Some days were better than others for fruit - there was usually 4 trays of fruit a day, some fresher than others. Overall good but not amazing quality. Waiting staff never stopped - they worked so hard making sure the tables were cleared quickly and ensuring food was constantly being brought out from the kitchen. We only went to the entertainment evening once during our stay as we were only bed & breakfast so spent most evenings out. The kids entertainment was good for older kids (our daughter was too young to be involved) but seemed to start late at 9pm. We didn't stay for the quiz because it was a picture quiz (guess the landmark) which was on a large screen which wasn't visible from our table outside. Entertainment team seemed really good and hard working, and were very pleasant. We loved the water area by the pool for kids - the fountains came on every few minutes. We went in the pool most days and spent a lot of time in/around the pool. The pool was open 9-7pm. We only used to get our sunbeds after breakfast and there was always sunbeds available, but usually all of the sunbeds with umbrellas were already occupied. You have to be there early if you need an umbrella too. Food and drinks at the poolside bar were good and reasonably priced too. There is quite a large menu of dinner items and snacks.
