The All Inclusive and All Inclusive Plus concepts at Evenia Zoraida Garden are geared around choice. The main buffet restaurant handles breakfast, lunch and dinner with show-cooking stations, international favourites and Spanish classics, plus handy microwaves and highchairs for younger guests.

With All Inclusive Plus (called All Inclusive Gold by the hotel), you can also dine around selected à la carte venues, usually up to three times per week with reservation. Options include:

– Asia Restaurant – poolside buffet and à la carte mix of international, Spanish, Chinese, Thai and Japanese dishes (peak summer, subject to occupancy).
– El Olivo – Spanish and international cuisine in an à la carte setting.
– Italian Restaurant “Carlo’s” – pizzas, pastas and Mediterranean dishes, buffet-plus-à-la-carte style with kids’ menus.
– Mediterranean Restaurant – international, Spanish and local specialities by the pool.

Drinks and downtime are covered by four bars, including Bar Las Vegas cocktail bar, a pool bar on the terrace, a lively disco bar and a main coffee bar. Opening dates and times vary by season, and a smart-casual dress code applies in many venues (no beachwear).

Water babies are spoilt for choice here. The resort features three outdoor saltwater pools, all with children’s sections and sunbathing terraces with loungers and parasols. One pool is tailored for younger families with gentle slides and spray features, another ramps up the fun with bigger slides, spouts and waterfalls, and an additional pool with slides is located at the neighbouring sister hotel (typically open May–October).

A heated indoor freshwater pool operates during May (dates can vary), ideal for cooler days or early/late season dips.

The real show-stealer is the aqua park (usually 1 May–15 October, set hours), included for hotel guests and offering:

– Multi-lane racer slides
– Half-pipe slide
– Aqua loop slides
– Separate splash park with spouts and waterfalls for little ones

Pool towels are available with a refundable deposit. Do note that age, height or weight restrictions apply on some slides and attractions, and facilities may vary by pool.

Stay active in the gym, which comes with cardio machines, free weights, fixed strength equipment, a stretching zone and a sauna (typically 16+, open seasonally from May to mid-October, depending on occupancy).

Organised activities usually include:

– Aqua aerobics and dance classes
– Darts and petanque
– Table tennis

The hotel also places sustainability front and centre and is listed as a Certified Sustainable Hotel, meaning eco-conscious touches are integrated into daily operations.

A note for multilingual families: daytime and evening entertainment is predominantly in Spanish, which adds to the authentic atmosphere but is worth bearing in mind if you prefer English-led activities.
