Staff was very friendly, especially Angel who helped us check in and give us recommendations for activities and food. If you do not want to pay for parking on property, it can be a little tricky to find parking. The room was clean and had a balcony. No iron or microwave but had fridge. The location is right on the boardwalk with plenty of restaurants and shopping. The beach is right there too. Breakfast including a variety like pancakes, eggs, sausage, yogurt, ton of breads, juices, coffee, bacon, fruits, etc. Overall solid hotel for your money. Would stay again :)

Very good 3 star hotel, probably a 3 star plus. Breakfast was good with varied choices Drinks and bar snacks were reasonably priced. Fran the hotel games/entertain rep was exceptional. Aqua aerobics and other pool games were entertaining and fun. Hotel has an ideal situation by the beach and the main drag. I would definitely re-visit.

This hotel had everything we needed, however, if you want a QUIET hotel this is not it. Loud thumps music by the pool all day and at night music/ entertainment starts at 10pm and you hear every word from your room if you are overlooking the pool and beach

Great location.
Fantastic hotel, lovely sea view. Plenty sunbeds. Room cleaned daily. Decoration a little dated. Roof top bar very nice. Main negative is the towels are very old. Probably should be replaced. Will definitely return.

It’s a 3 star hotel. But it’s in an excellent location. Very family orientated with a large pool and many day time activities. Can be noisy being close to the harbour. But location is key, and you can’t beat its location on the sea front and its sea room views.

Balcony doors
The hotel met all our needs, with good staff and good cleanliness. The one issue we encountered (2 friends in a family room on the 9th floor), was that when we went on the balcony and closed the balcony doors behind us, so that the room could stay cool with the air con on, we got locked outside and couldn't open the door. We shouted to someone on a lower balcony to get someone from reception to let us back in. Thankfully my friend was strong enough to open the door before help came. But when the member of hotel staff arrived, they just said "be careful, ok?". I feel like the outside part of balcony is a safety issue and should have an opening latch, like they do inside. It shouldn't have been dismissed as a triviality.

Great beach front hotel
Great hotel, we were in a pretty basic double room but it had everything we needed. The location is excellent set on the beach front with access to many bars and restaurants. The marina is a 10 minute walk and fantastic. Pool area is very clean and the food served at breakfast and in the snack bar was lovely and great value. Most sun beds are gone early however we always managed to find one and the staff do help.

Would stay again, but not my 1st,2nd or 3rd choice
Great location between Torremolinos and Benalmadena, very close to tourist bars on the road and beach. Breakfast very frantic and often understocked, much better to go out for breakfast. Very poor towels. Roof top bar looks great, but they often play dance music very loudly and always seems closed when you want to go. The bar is open until 2am, but they often refused service before 1.30am.

Hotel rooms could do with a bit of TLC but generally they are clean and cleaning staff I encountered were lovely. The reception team did a get job providing a room for my friend and I. The hotel is in a great location, has a great rooftop bar, and the little food I did have was nice. Would happily stay there again.
