Relaxing apartment 1st line beach El Palo. Sunny and calm. WIFI

Malaga-Este

"My husband and I had a wonderful stay. Juan was attentive from the start and went out of his way to help us secure our luggage the day of our check out. This allowed us to spend one more day in the area and not have to worry about our bags. The rental is directly on the beach, it was very clean, and well stocked with all the items we needed to start our stay. The area is not touristy, but rather immersed in the Malaga culture. There are lots of restaurants along the beach and a very healthy...

Top Málaga Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Malaga Airport by IHG

8/10 Good

"Déjeuner copieux offert, personnel souriant et aimable."

Hotel ILUNION Malaga

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel. Stylish and enjoyable on every level. Facilities are excellent, great buffet breakfast, lovely poolside bar for food and drinks. Super helpful and friendly staff. Great location - quiet and away from tacky tourist areas, yet only 10 euros in a cab to central Marbella. Haven’t yet tried the beach or gym as only on day two and we haven’t left the beautiful pool, with its relaxing and confortable day beds. I would say the hotel is more suited to adults (and older children)."

Atarazanas Málaga Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. The downstairs bar and breakfast area were well maintained and well serviced while we were there.I thought the amenities in the room were excellent. Tea and coffee were replenished daily, which was much appreciated. The only observation I would make is that, although I took two complimentary bottles of water on arrival, the water was not restocked each day. This is perhaps one area the hotel could reconsider. Other than that, the bathroom amenities were very good.The beds were extremely comfortable, and the room was cleaned to a high standard every day. The hotel is also wonderfully situated near all the main attractions in the city of Málaga, making it an ideal base for exploring the area.Overall, we had a fantastic experience and will definitely be back next year. Highly recommended."
