    The cafeteria, and the room, nº 450, wasn't clean of dust... below chairs, the bed, a whole lot of dust. As if they've been cleaning around it...

    The room, the hotel itself, all wonderful.

    Felt a little remote from the coast & you need a car or else you have to rely on taxis. Also sometimes the staff left it up to the guests to find their way, ie heres the keys on you go.

    Excellent room, lovely pool area with great terrace and bar. Remembered a birthday and laid on Champagne which was a nice touch . Some of the staff were pleasant and friendly and catered well to the guests in general.

    Nice and relaxed for a large hotel

    The lady in the salon is extremely rude, Which is sad because she doesn’t represent the rest of the lovely staff.

    The beds are so comfy, Rooms are SO clean, Kids club is great, Salon inside, Lovely girls at reception, 10/12 min drive from Puerto banus only a €10/€13 taxi !!All the food was so nice!! Really reccommend for the money you pay for it

    We booked half-board, specially because of the food reviews and we got a bit frustrated. From our experience breakfast is ok but not amazing as it’s said. Dinner quality is low, and the food has an industrial flavor, and no salt at all. Not much choice for starters. For a 4 star hotel we were expecting a bit more quality. Far from the Marbella center and the nice beaches, but we were already aware before going. Pool closes at 8pm and it’s not allowed to swim after that time. A lot of noise during the morning from the corridors as the cleaning ladies start working, not really nice to rest after 8am. The toilet doesn’t have a brush it’s not understandable and the cleaning ladies also don’t clean it.

    Large room and nice pool area.

    We booked a superior room and in the description it said we would have a balcony. We had no balcony and asked reception about this. They said they had no rooms to assign us with a balcony. The staff member who we spoke to was rude about this. This is disappointing as we did not get what we booked

    The beds were comfortable and the hotel was clean.

    The breakfast was excellent, lots of choice and delicious, it would just be helpful if they added allergens to there labels and maybe a station for gluten free cereals and breads. Then it would be a perfect 10.

    The grounds are lovely, the pool area is spacious with plenty of sunbeds, with a lovely bar area, the rooms are huge. The ladies on the housekeeping team are really lovely and friendly and do an excellent job.
