I went into my stay at Olive & Ivy with high expectations, having read so many glowing reviews beforehand. Happy to say: not only were those expectations met, they were completely surpassed.
This little hotel is a gem. The attention to detail everywhere – from the decor to the little thoughtful touches in the room – is absolutely amazing. You can feel the love and care that’s been poured into every corner.

We stayed for 6 nights in April and it was our second visit in 4 years. We returned as we found the apartment complex nice and quiet , very clean and well maintained with all the facilities required for self catering. It is located right opposite Paloma Park which is a lovely place to take a stroll with lovely gardens and views. The beach is five minutes walk away and there is a bus stop right outside the entrance to the apartments with frequent buses to Mijas which cost just 1.65 euros each...

Central hotel close to all central amenities and sights. This is my fourth time staying here and would fully recommend staying here. The room, staff and experience is very comfortable and professional. Top tip, the local train service provides a quick and cheap service to both the airport and Torrimonlious.

Physically attractive resort with a club-like atmosphere, partly because most stayers have permanent membership of the resort so are repeat visitors.
Staff were charming and helped with small requests.
These are real apartments with separate bedrooms and kitchens, not like a hotel.
Location is excellent; close walking distance to beach, many good restaurants, and short taxi ride to the Marina and its Aquarium, and Benalmadena town centre with its cablecar and Tivoli park, so an ideal...
