Very friendly and kind reception from Johana and all staff. Restaurant is well catered for adults but kids options could be improved on. There is a variety of entertainment on every night including a kids disco which they invite all to take part in. If you want to walk anywhere other than the splash park at the entrance I wouldn’t advise as anything of interest is a good taxi ride away. Rooms are good value for money but could do with a bit of upkeep maintenance wise, we found there were a few damages around our room to doors and walls etc, might I add rooms are also well noise dampened, our room was next to the park and outside seating for the bar and when we had to have an early night we could barely hear anything. Overall a good hotel for families.
Great stay thank you
We had a lovely time here. Stayed in a junior suite which was clean, spacious and super comfy beds, yes it could probably do with a little updating but it's to an comfortable standard. It's the quietest of the 3 hotels in the complex but sometimes that's nice when you want to escape the crowds. You can easily walk between the hotels or there is a shuttle bus provided I can only imagine due to the hill, and you can use all the facilities in the other hotels accept breakfast lunch and dinner, you can visit their snacks bars. Short taxi ride to the marina or fuengirola. Although it's a lovely walk to fuengirola- not the one the faint hearted though as it's 40 mins each way and a few steep hills but worth it if you like exploring. The only downside was the food if I'm really honest. Disappointing choice. It's not terrible but it's very average indeed. We ate out most nights despite paying all inc as it was very repetitive and uninspiring. A few more Spanish items would have been really nice and better salad choices. But that is the only negative. Couldn't fault anything else. Some of the reviews are so harsh. It's a lovely place, lovely staff, a little out the way but it depends what you are after and the travel is inexpensive and takes minutes. I would recommend and would stay again. Thanks for a great holiday.
Not bad
hotel wasn’t too bad, just abit of a drive away if you want to go anywhere.
Terrible experience
Very disappointing experience. No parking available despite being charged €20 for the first night. The restaurant is small and overcrowded, with over a 30-minute wait in line. To make matters worse, there was loud construction noise early in the morning above my junior suite on the top floor. I had to call reception twice to ask them to stop . Definitely not the experience you would expect for the price.
