Which room to book at Bahía del Duque
A Junior Suite in the Casas Ducales, with the sea-view supplement paid. It is 40 to 45 square metres against the entry room's 30 to 35, and like every room below the Presidential Suites it is sold on a garden or inland view with the sea as a supplement. The argument for it is not a window the other tiers lack but the wing it comes with: its own reception, its own breakfast terrace and canapés at seven.

Why this one
The ladder has three wings and the argument is about which wing, not which size. The main houses sell a 30 to 35 square metre Deluxe Room, a 45 to 55 Junior Suite and a 50 to 70 Suite, every one of them on a garden or inland view with the sea as a supplement. The Casas Ducales sells the same entry size, 30 to 35, and slightly smaller suites, 40 to 45 and 50 to 60, on exactly the same view terms, and attaches a wing to them: an independent entrance and reception, reserved parking, flexible check-in and check-out, a private lounge, a breakfast terrace from 8.00 to 11.00 that is not El Bernegal, a courtesy bar, a solarium with complimentary drinks, afternoon tea from 4.00 to 6.00 and canapés with drinks from 7.00 to 9.00. Guests report that those extras are what make a 484-room resort feel like a hotel, and they, not a view the other tiers lack, are the case for paying more.
So the pick is the Ducales Junior Suite with the sea-view supplement paid: the open-plan room with a terrace or balcony, the beach in the window and the lounge downstairs. The Junior Suite, the Casas Ducales Suite and the Suite above it still charge for the sea; only from the Presidential Suites up is the view included rather than bought, and the shape up there is unusual. The 195 square metre Royal Suite and the 228 square metre Suite Imelda are counted with their terraces, so they are smaller inside than the numbers suggest, while the 202 square metre Villa Las Palmeras is the first category with a private pool, a villa assistant and breakfast delivered to the door. If the budget reaches a Presidential Suite, look at the entry villa first.
- Ask for
- Ask for a Casas Ducales Junior Suite with the sea-view supplement and a terrace rather than a balcony, and ask for an upper floor of its house; the hotel states no floors for any category, and guests report lower-floor sea-view rooms staying dim until late in the day, so put the request in writing and take what the hotel confirms. Say that the beach is the reason for the stay. If you are two adults and two children, the Ducales Junior Suite sleeps exactly that.
- Avoid
- Avoid a garden or inland Deluxe Room in the main houses if you came for the sea, and any room described as having a French balcony if you expect to sit outside. Avoid the upper blocks if stairs are a problem, because the houses step down the slope to the promenade and the walk back is uphill. And check which wing a rate is for: the hotel sells three tiers under one name, and the Casas Ducales is a different building from the main houses.
Suites against rooms
Two choices are worth singling out. The Casas Ducales Royal Suite is 195 square metres with its terrace, with an outdoor jacuzzi, panoramic sea and garden views and a connecting room that turns it into a two-bedroom, which for a family beats the Presidential Suite's fixed plan. And the villas are a different hotel: Las Palmeras at 202 square metres with terraces, Las Retamas at 256 with a bath cut from volcanic stone, Las Mimosas at 440 with two bedrooms and a heated plunge pool, all with a villa assistant, continental breakfast in the villa from 8.00 to noon, an in-villa chef on request, underground parking reserved for villa guests and preferential access to the thalasso circuit, which the hotel lists as an inclusion without saying what it waives.
