First time staying at this hotel, it was at the far end of the strip but worth it because we got to experience the entire strip when we went for evening walks

The staff was great and the areas in the hotel were huge, well kept and clean. Totally recommend it for a pampering trip. The location is great if you are a regular in Fuengirola but newbies can struggle a bit to get out and about and take advantage of things around. Will return!

Really nice hotel just 10 minutes walk away from main strip and shopping. The hotel itself is nice but the negatives for us were: - Very little choice of vegetarian food. Even the salads had fish/meat - Lots of food cross contamination with utensils, etc. - Pool was freezing cold as not heated - be great if they had a heated pool - No entertainment - No arcades/pool table Positives: - Close the nearby restaurants - Ample free parking outside hotel - Only hotel on the beach in the area so you can leave door open and listen to waves - Huge Miramar shopping centre 10 mins walk away with outdoor go karting on roof Overall, a good hotel and would come back as long as they can address the food situation. More and more people are going vegetarian/vegan and hotels should get ahead and cater properly.

Reception, cleaning and restaurant staff very good. Helpful and professional. Beach bar staff seemed disorganised (forgot our order and just left us waiting) and disinterested. Room was spacious, clean and plenty of storage but was in need of refurbishment. No tea/coffee making facilities in the room was a disappointment. Buffet breakfast and dinner were very good with a good selection. My wife doesnt eat meat but had no problems. No possibility of coffee post dinner seems strange.

Having lived in the area previously. I decided to stay here with the family for ease of pool and beach access. I found the property spotless, credit to the cleaners, not a smudge or water mark in sight. Breakfast was sufficient with a good variety. Rooms were comfortable albeit, decor could be modernised in the future but that’s not a criticism. Whilst it’s at the end of Fuengirola beach/paseo, it’s literally walkable to Miramar shopping mall and Fuengirola city centre (15 -mins) Castillo Sohail is literally next door

We had a sea view room, very nice views. Rooms are dated and the cleaning staff never cleaned our cups. No kettles in room, you need to request. The hotel has no irons, bring your own as they charge per item. Vegetarian food is very limited and was pointed to the salad bar every evening as we were half board. We ended eating outdoors every evening as there are some fabulous resturants nearby the hotel that offer great vegetarian food and only had yogurt and fruit for dessert every evening.

Have stayed before so knew what to expect. Golfing trip with three friends, the hotel provides a very comfortable base, staff all very polite and helpful. Nice touch was chocolates and card left in my room by guest services for my birthday! how did they know? Will doubtless stay again on our next golfing trip.

A little bit out if you have difficulty walking. I’d say a good 45min walk to centre of fuengorila at marina or train station. . And there is no shop close to the hotel. Although it does have vending machines. Closest supermarket is about 10min walk .Hotel has Very good facilities. Maids are excellent at cleaning the room . Shampoo conditioner comb sewing kit toothbrush toothpaste all in room. Rooms are a really good size . No kettle in room but u ask at reception and one is sent to room. Towels are supplied for pool. Safe is free . Hotel sits on the main road which is excellent excess north and south. If no car. Bus stop only a few minutes outside hotel.

Had a very pleasent time at this Hotel...good sized rooms....large bathroom...great views over the sea.....good selection of food at breakfast....dined in restaurant one night only...while there was a good selection I thought the food itself was very bland...... excellent staff...very friendly and helpful....could have done with an extraction fan in bathroom....softer closing doors would be an improvement.

IPV ON THE BEACH
Arrived very early hours due to flight cancellation. Booked online as I’ve stayed here before many times . On arrival at 02.00 the receptionist said our reservation hasn’t updated so she wanted to book us in direct . This was more expensive and I would have had to pay twice . She did eventually book us in at the price paid but gave us a room I hadn’t booked on the ground floor next to a very noisy generator. So no sleep on top of a very stressful day . However the next morning a very helpful staff member changed our room to a 5 th floor one which was lovely. After that absolutely no complaints at all . Stunning hotel in a beautiful location right on the beach. Good service and good food.

Lovely hotel with staff who went the extra mile. Cleaning staff were amazing. Loved the thermal spa and hudge chices of foods at breakfast. We were on BB but went into the buffet most night with amazing quality fresh cooked fish and seafood as well as meats and vegeterian and vegan dishes. Great security in the grounds with card access only. We were glad it is rated as an adult hotel so we could enjoy the area without ball games and shouting or running around. One small thing the carpet runner in Rhonda roomd was threadbear in places and could be a trip hazzard. We wil be back.

The breakfast variety was very very good! The bar food for lunch was not great. Most everything I ordered a la carte was just average though the prices were not. The beach is convenient, pool, spa, and gym facilities were all really good. Plenty of easy options for walking and running. Wifi is very weak in some corners of the property. It is challenging if you are working so check before you fully accept your room. Some rooms with connecting/adjoining doors are not private. You can hear your neighbors completely. In fact, you can talk to them. It was a real problem for me. Our neighbors were on a different kind of vacation and just kept us up half the night. They were not being particularly load but everything came through. All that said, I would recommend the hotel. Just choose your room wisely

Great room with view of the sea. Air conditioning worked well and was quiet. Pool was lovely temperature and there were no sunbeds being reserved. We went down at 10.30am every day and most sunbeds were still empty. Even at lunchtime there were a few available. Plenty of shade options too. Staff were great. Buffet breakfast had plenty of choices and we tried the buffet dinner one night which for 25€ was a reasonable price. Would definitely go back if revisiting the area.

The views from this hotel are stunning. Our room was clean and comfortable. The staff are friendly and helpful. The hotel is right on the beach so it was a very relaxing place to stay. The pools are beautiful and they had daily activities which I declined so I could just veg out on the beach. The buffet breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices. I loved this hotel so much, I will definitely go back.

Great place for families
This hotel was a bit of a let-down at first compared to where we had just come from; but in the end not a bad place to stay. It seems to be the place for families vacationing and maybe not so much for couples looking for an upscale hotel. The food was good and the breakfast buffet had a lot to offer. It did feel like we were on a cruise ship lining up for breakfast waiting to be seated; but we were happy with the quality of the food. We also had a lunch and dinner there and were equally pleased. As far as comfort, the pillows on our bed were flat and pretty hard. I did ask for extra pillows and got one nice fluffy one and another hard one. The bed itself was comfy. The hotel was clean though a bit dated. The location was good in that you could walk to the mall and other restaurant options. We had a balcony room and our view was spectacular!
