With 532 rooms, sprawling lush grounds, and tons of on-site activities, the mid-range PortBlue Club Pollentia is a large Caribbean-style resort popular with families and couples. Aside from all the expected features of a mega-resort -- including a fitness center, a spa, a kids’ club, and plenty of outdoor fun -- the hotel has a quieter adult-only area with its own pool and restaurant. Renovated rooms have a fresh, contemporary feel, with laminate floors and clean lines. But non-renovated units are basic and dated. Beachgoers may want to consider adult-only Hotel Astoria Playa, or family-friendly Hoposa Uyal Hotel.

On a headland that juts out of La Manga del Mar Menor, the three-pearl Servigroup Galua is surrounded by the sea on all sides. All of its 194 rooms have a sea view, and most of the hotel’s shared areas look out over the water, plus it’s a two-minute walk to the beach on the Atlantic side, or 10 minutes to the edge of the Mar Menor. Although outfitted with dated decor, rooms have flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and hairdryers. Features include an outdoor ocean-view pool, a spa with treatment rooms and hydrotherapy pools, a small gym, and buffet restaurant.
