Melia Alicante
"Such a perfect location. One side the best sunrise on the beach you ll get, the other side a beautiful sunset sky above the marina. Breakfast and dinner were buffets with lots of fresh choices. Maybe it would be good to have more gluten free options for dinner like they do for breakfast"
