Let me start by saying that I have never stayed at the Mediterranee hotel, but I have been coming on holiday to Bibione Pineda for thirty years and, since it was built, I have always appreciated very much how it integrated perfectly into the context of the surrounding pine forest a stone's throw from the sea . For these reasons my review will not concern the services offered by the structure, but rather the new "face" that the hotel in question has taken on this year. In particular, I feel the responsibility of writing this review for all those families who are looking for a family hotel in Bibione Pineda and come across the photographs of the exterior of the Mediterranee hotel present today on TripAdvisor, but which unfortunately, alas, do not correspond to the the current image of the hotel. This year, in fact, the Mediterranee has undergone a major renovation, which has radically changed its characteristics: 1) it has been significantly expanded, with the addition of a significant portion of the building in the central area and in front of the entrance; 2) it was raised by one or two floors depending on the area; 3) it has been equipped with a new parking area (which currently consists of a dirt road) which has led to the erosion of a vast green area near the beach and immediately behind the characteristic church of Bibione Pineda, making it definitively lose its contemplative function (now the only thing that can be seen is the gigantic hotel behind it); 4) it was completely painted GRAY. All these elements have completely changed its face, aesthetically transforming it from a welcoming and beautiful (perhaps the most beautiful in Bibione Pineda?!?) family hotel, well integrated into nature and the surrounding context, into a looming, cold and aseptic business(?) hotel, which has nothing to do with Bibione Pineda and which, as unfortunately often happens, has disfigured nature and the surrounding context a stone's throw from the sea. If until last year I would not have hesitated to bring my children to the Mediterranee hotel because from an aesthetic and architectural point of view it perfectly reflected my idea of a family hotel, from this year, just observing it from the outside, I would be careful not to bring them there for don't let them have an experience...in reinforced concrete. Yes, because in the end it is very painful to say it, but this is the visual sensation you get. Now no one will give us back the lost portion of nature and the looming dimensions of the hotel will certainly not be reduced. We at least hope that with this review the hotel owners review the painting of the building, opting for a color more in line with the surrounding marine context. Demonstrative photos follow.
