All air-conditioned rooms at Hostal Puerto Genovés feature a blue-and-white décor and classic furnishings. Each has a private bathroom with bath tub. Some rooms are adapted for wheelchair users.

We had a wonderful time staying at Hostal Puerto Genoves and loved the rustic charm of San Jose. The owners were really helpful and friendly. Our room was well equipped with a good fridge,an enormous and comfortable bed. Also the owners provided us with a an electric kettle on request. The bathroom was well fitted with an impressive shower system in the bath giving lots of hot water. The pool was an additional bonus. Breakfast provided everything we could want in a continental style breakfast.You could help yourself and even take a tray to your balcony if you liked. The balcony with our room was large, private and overlooked the well tended garden. The property is within a few minutes easy walk to all amenities - supermarkets, beach, village square and the bus stop to Almeria. We had some amazing coastal walks in each direction and there are also interesting inland walks for next time!

At Las Olas you can choose between studios and rooms. Each one comes with a flat-screen TV, and many have sea views. The studios also feature a kitchenette with a washing machine. The rooms with sea view do not have a kitchen, but include a fridge.

Everything was good! We had the studio facing the town/beach and it was perfect. It is not in the centre but at 5 mins walking. Be aware that there are stairs to reach the flat entrance, but nothing impossible.

    A really lovely place to stay. Great location quiet area but close to all amenities restaurants and beaches. Easy parking right outside. The owners could not have been more helpful or friendly. The room and whole place was spotless. Nice pool area with a small pleasant garden area. Our room was downstairs with a lovely large terrace looking into the garden and park beyond. A really pleasant break and will definitely use again when visiting San Jose.
