We booked the location based on the photos displayed. Our room was ‘upgraded’ but did not look at all like the photos on the website. Our TV in our bedroom wasn’t working, although we did not contact reception to correct as we did not need to use it and had a TV in the entry area. The beds were very comfortable and the staff we spoke with were lovely. We were on the ground/garden floor and had some very strange and loud noises whenever someone ran the shower or used the toilet. Location was great, unfortunately a bit dated, and the photos should be updated to reflect the current state of the rooms.

Lovely, great value hotel near Malaga Airport

Lovely hotel. Great value. Room was a little noisy and by that, I mean the noise coming in from the communal corridor and from outside my balcony in to the room. My only real complaint as the rest of the hotel was kept very well, with great facilities.

Giant waste of time, over promising, under deliver

Over promised and under delivered in a big way. Spent almost $300 to stay one night at this hotel was told check-in is around two. We’re not able to check in till after four and apparently there were field trips of bus loads of children in the age range of 10 to 13 that we were not told We’re staying I believe the total could’ve been hundreds, but several times during our stay we were woken up by classrooms full of kids gathering in the hallways we spoke to the manager Juan, Antonio and he assured us they would be we’d be entitled to some compensation after spending extensive time applying and citing our grievances. We were actually denied any compensation for our inconvenience at this hotel, which further aggravated us after dealing with the inconveniences of the hotel wasting time seeking compensation was pointless. Seems like they have “loss mitigation system” in which they tell guests with genuine grievances to go through several lengthy processes, which ultimately lead to their frustration and just giving up on any compensation that’s my opinion On the matter. I would never stay at this hotel ever again, and I would never recommend it to any family. It’s already stressful enough staying in a foreign country with a small child then to be put through the runaround by the management. Not to mention when we finally did get to check in at four our keys didn’t work for the door, which resulted in going all the way back to the front desk and dealing with that Situation,horrible

The pool area and reception spotlessly clean. Be aware this is a very large complex so reception area (the only indoor area to relax after dinnner) did feel like grand central station with lots checking in and checking out. Not enough places to sit. The hotel facilitates conferences and events so can be noisy and very busy. I felt there were just too many people for the facility space they had. The pool area at the front was full all day and people queued at the restaurant in the evening. This surprised me as we were low season outside of holidays yet in April the place was packed with kids. Not a problem for a family hotel but I feel Barcelo marketed their hotel on their website as a relaxed environment, a place to kick back in. Be aware this is not the case. It was chaos most of the time at the pool. We all like to have fun but as two friends travelling without children it didn’t make for the holiday we thought we would get. That’s not the reason for just 4 stars. You drink out of plastic at the pool-this is understandable but I don’t want to drink out of scratched plastic in the restaurant. We paid for the balanese beds at the pool whilst other people didn’t. Shower hot/cold That’s the grumble done, positives the staff are genuinely friendly and attentive. My junior suite was huge and kept spotless by housekeeping. The grounds are well kept and it right opposite the beach. You are at one of the furthest points to central Torremilinos but we walked and used taxis.

My room while very comfortable with lovely balcony and sea view was very small. The food was excellent and the staff fantastic. Between 9pm and 11.30pm every night was a very loud hotel party on the stage just below my room. They are supposed to finish at 11pm but often go overtime. While they are providing excellent entertainment for guests it is just some small annoyance if you want a quiet night. The shower was great. Tv was great.

Lovely hotel!

What a lovely hotel! We had an All Inclusive package and it was great. The food was probably the best I’ve ever had in an all inclusive - really varied and plentiful. There was a really good range of drinks included too, all branded spirits and good cocktails. The staff were lovely and the hotel was impeccably clean and well-maintained.
