Malibu Imperial Resort

Malibu Imperial Resort

8/10 Good
"On the positive this was a lovely property with all the amenities you would expect for a seemingly 'luxury' experience. The inside space was lovely, great balcony and en suites for both bedrooms. The living space was great and the kitchen perfect for our needs. The pool area is clean and beautifully kept and the sea views exquisite. The areas to improve are a few and quite important. Three nights and mornings we had no hot water. This was addressed the next day but with no apology or offer of redress. Fairly fundamental to a holiday property to have hot water. Towels and toiletries. The latter not provided as I assume most people staying here are from continental Europe. But if you fly in it would be nice to provide a small tray of them. The towels were like sandpaper. Using some softener to wash them would help a lot, but they are also very small. More children's size than adults. The last issue is around the other 'guests' and their behaviour. Whilst this isn't directly the fault of the resort, indirectly they should be doing more to control it. This is clearly a family resort but children took over both pool areas a lot of the time, shouting, using large floats, throwing footballs and American footballs, jumping in to create large splashes and being part of large fat groups of people who drank constantly around the pool, played music loudly and didn't care about other guests at all. These several groups were basically breaking all the rules listed on the wall. "

5 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Vir

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Vir is from January to March, when hotel prices are likely to be lower. For a great value for money experience, consider staying for at least 4 to 5 days to fully explore the area's significant landmarks, historical sites, and cultural attractions. This timeframe allows you to appreciate the rich history and natural beauty of Vir while keeping your expenses manageable.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals on Hotels.com, begin by checking the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute DealsOpens in a new window sections, where you may find discounted rates on hotels as your travel date approaches. Enabling email alerts or push notifications can keep you informed about flash sales and promotions, helping you seize opportunities to save. Additionally, the Smart ShoppingOpens in a new window tool available in the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you're more likely to see the best options. If prices drop or new rooms open up, you'll be notified first, making it easier to book that spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate based on factors like the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates might help you save on your stay at the Vir hotel. If you're in search of something special, boutique hotels often provide a more personalized experience and can sometimes offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher end, we’ll recommend more affordable dates, which could help you find a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Staying near major attractions or city centers can be convenient, but it often comes with a higher price tag. For more budget-friendly options, you might want to look at hotels in less central neighborhoods, where you can find a better balance between cost and access to the sights you want to see. Independent hotels located a bit farther out usually tend to be more affordable and can offer a more authentic experience.
