Playa BlancaOn our lists
H10 Rubicón Horizons Collection, long known as H10 Rubicón Palace, stands on the seafront on the west side of Playa Blanca, with the promenade running past towards Playa Flamingo and the town centre. Its 584 rooms are set around gardens and a spread of pools: five for adults, one of them heated, and three for children, two of them heated.
Families get the Daisy Club and the Daisy Adventure play area, while an Adults Only Area with its own rooms for over-18s gives couples a quieter corner. The Despacio Thalasso Centre has seven treatment rooms, and there is a gym. All inclusive is the board the hotel shows, served across two buffets, several themed à la carte restaurants, a run of bars and two food trucks. It suits families who want everything on site and couples happy to settle into the adults' area.
