Sol Katmandu Park & Resort

Very good location and facilities are outstanding however quite noisy in the evenings with being near the BCM Club

Just back from a great family holiday in Oct half term,all staff worked hard,everywhere was clean,lots to do & lovely beach nearby,we went in the theme park everyday,crazy golf & upside down house our favourites but enjoyed all the park had to offer.Splashzone & soft play worked on a session basis but gave plenty of time in both,both large & small pools were well manned with lifeguards,some of our party were especially delighted as Strongbow was on draught in main bar & pool bar🍻lots of choice for food & each night was themed,cakes were the best Iv ever had,very tasty & proper slices,lots of sweets & fruit too & self serve ice cream ,entertainment was very good some nights,there was a candy floss machine which for a small price,you could choose your own design/flavour,fabulous . My only negative was the queueing system at the evening meal,one long queue formed & took 10-15 mins to complete & maybe the children’s disco could be improved but having said this we had a great holiday & would 100% recommend for families, Well done to all the staff👏

Sol Katmandu is a fantastic place for families. We were only there for four days but managed to spend every waking minute inside the resort chilling out and having fun. The splash park and Upside Down house were brilliant - managed most of the attractions two or three times. The only minor downside was the evening entertainment. We had three children aged 12-14, and once the pool and attractions had closed, they were bored. The kids entertainment is aimed more at younger children. Maybe it's just the time of year, but we are definitely looking at coming back during the summer holidays very soon! The food and drink was amazing. Different dishes every day. Was a little confused with the rules of the pool area - we were told that food isn't allowed within 1 metre of the pool, yet we were sat about 15 metres from the pool and still wasn't allowed to take food to our sunbeds...yet there were a small minority of people that seemed to do this without being challenged. That said, we will definitely be back!

I’m two nights away from going home now. My son and I (he is 7 years old and is mildly autistic) have had a great time. Starting with the food. My expecations for all inclusive food is pretty low based on previous experiences at other resorts. Sol Kathmandu is comfortably the best food we have had on an all inclusive holiday. Tonight there was paella with fresh king prawns, clams and crab. My son had veal steak with chips and every night has been different and far better than I would have expected. It’s not Michelin star but who expects that on a holiday? We expected to have to eat out most nights but that hasn’t been the case. The staff are friendly and non intrusive and allow you to enjoy your holiday without trying to sell things to you all the time. The rooms are a little small but you only sleep there dont you so who cares? Last night they had like a mini gladiators evening for the kids which was great fun, my son loved it. Would recommend spending the 15 euros for unlimited crazy golf, we have played most days so got our monies worth from it. The splash park is ideal for kids under 10, however, if you prefer a more adventurous water park go to Western Water Park where there are some great slides and a wave pool. I cant speak highly enough of this place. We are not the type to go somewhere twice but i may well come back here as my son has loved it and he is the most important person when it comes to holiday. Thank you Sol Kathmandu, you’ve been bloody brilliant!!

Wanted to post a warning to people about the food here! Had 3 major incidents at the hotel when we stayed last month. The first was on the second day of our arrival at lunch time and was that they had onion rings out, and listed as onion rings, confirmed with the kitchen staff that they were onion rings- they were in fact fish! I have an allergy to fish! Told the manager immediately that they need to take the sign down and put a new one up to make people aware- sign was taken down but after over 20 minutes later I had to approach the manager again as no new sign had been put up! This could have been life threatening for someone. Second incident was that my youngest son (who is 5 years old) fell down an open hole in the grounds of the hotel - bruising and grazing his legs, arms, elbows, and also causing a bump and bruising to his head. This was in the evening around 7:30pm (the same evening that the onion rings incident happened) the hole wasn’t filled until after 3pm the next day and no warning signs or cover had been put over the hole in the meantime. Third incident was the following day at lunch time they had a chicken curry out, I got some and ate a bit and then proceeded to cut some up for my son- had I not have cut it up I wouldn’t have noticed that the chicken wasn’t cooked properly and was pink! Not only that but they were using the same utensils for raw meat as they were for cooked meat! After these incidents regarding food we then ate out for the rest of the holiday and only ate breakfast in the hotel which was always only croissants and pancakes so that they were plain and easy to spot if undercooked! Couldn’t post the review immediately as was going through a complaints policy with the travel company. Still waiting to hear back from Melia hotel group which is shocking that they haven’t replied yet given the nature of the serious incidents that happened at their hotel!

Excellent park with some much for little ins to do we all loved it here and will be revisiting very soon, Lovely clean amenities not to far to travel from airport and loads of eating places around the park including sandy beach. We had the best time

Overall a disappointing experience.
