The hotel had a good location. The staff were friendly. The lobby and restaurant were very nice. We had booked the hotel with breakfast only, the food quality was good but the variety of food was limited. My family and I were very satisfied.

We had such a relaxing and fantastic time at this hotel. All of the hotel staff were friendly and helpful and the lady that cleaned our room each day was amazing. The room was very comfortable and the views of the bay were gorgeous. The facilities and restaurants were spotlessly clean and we really enjoyed the buffet breakfast which was plentiful. The beach was wonderful and felt like it was a private beach due to its close proximately to the hotel, although we did have to pay for the sun beds and parasols each day as these were not managed by the hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely book this hotel again.

We purchased Delex room, but they sold it to someone for better price and they put us in disability room. We had a bathroom like in the hospital on rehab place for disabled people. Was so upset, they lied to us saying this is the room you paid for. No AC, elevator not working most of the time we have to walked stairs to 11 Th floor. Elevator feet’s 3 people, so slow 🙈, you have to wait for 10 min , then it’s comes- it’s full and you wait again…. You give up and walk upstairs with no AC…. It’s horrible place, don’t go there, please find something better. No stores or shopping around this hotel, you have to get taxi to go eat or shop. Food very bad, every day same breakfast . In Europe people don’t know how to cook good food. In 7 days I had one dish what actually was good. You have to pay for drinks, they very expensive too. You have to pay even for water. I regret for my choice with this hotel. And remember, water temperature is very cold for swimming. Outside was 95 degrees but water never gets worm in this sea , be ready spend so much money for flight tickets and just to get sweat on the beach, you run into the water and it’s so cold that you run back to the beach. We made a bad choice with this vocation, nothing been pleasant .
This is how our bathroom looks like there….
You can see it’s like in the hospital

Good sized room and very clean, staff very friendly, decent food, modern hotel and quite classy in some areas. The pool area for adults it’s too small for such a big hotel, the “ families pool “ is unbearably crowded. Also the smell from the “ BBQ boat “ is annoying if the wind is blowing towards the pool area. And they BBQ with wood, not with any sustainable vegetable coal or such less harmful product. The outside area facing the beach isn’t well kept. In a nutshell, many good things, lesser bad things. A 4 stars hotel mostly catering for the all inclusive holidays companies. Please be aware that the beach does not belong to the hotel. Sunbeds cost 7 euros per day per bed. And it’s quite small and quite crowded with locals enjoying the sunny Benalmádena.

Not much happening in the area, but it’s perfect for a calm, peaceful, and quiet getaway for a couple of days. Fantastic rooftop bar, and the beach outside isn’t exactly 'private', but it’s not busy either, so it was still enjoyable. I would have preferred if sunbeds and umbrellas were offered for free, since we paid a lady for some.

Paid on site parking. Very busy tourist hotel. Totally understaffed in the main bar and the bar by the adult swimming pool on beach front. Check in slow and check out even slower as we needed a Factura which was a major challenge. Receptionist at check in and checl out was the same and she did not fully understand the system. Alas. We booked 3 rooms for 1 night.
