Superb hotel - very highly recommended.
The San Fermin Hotel is about a 5 minute walk from the beach and about 20 minute walk from the marina. The bus stop is about 5 minutes away too… you can jump on a bus to Malaga or Mijas or anywhere down the coast for 1 euro 75!! When we landed at the airport, we actually got the train to the resort. It took about half a hour and cost 3 euros! The hotel is then about a 29 minute walk from the station. This hotel is gorgeous. It’s clean, well kept, has amazing staff and serves fantastic food. Our room was lovely and spacious. We had a balcony and a fridge, which had a bottle of water in when we arrived. Tea and coffee in the room isn’t replenished so you might want to take your own. We stayed bed and breakfast and the breakfast was superb. There was a chef doing fresh pancakes and omelettes and eggs, and all your usual hot buffet items. They also had a massive selection of cakes, pastries, breads and fresh fruit, along with meats, preserves and cheeses, and cereal. There was something for everyone and it was served until 10.30. The pool is very big and there are lots of sun loungers. We never had to fight for a sunbed and could pretty much choose where we wanted to sit as the pool area was massive. The staff couldn’t have been more accommodating. There is a luggage room where you can store your cases if you arrive before check in time or are leaving later in the day. The bar staff were mega efficient and there is a little snack bar round the pool serving fantastic burgers and sides. The hotel is very spacious and it never felt crowded or overrun. I would absolutely stay here again. It’s a real gem and highly recommended.

September trip
Stayed for three nights bed and breakfast.Hotel was extremely reasonably priced so we were really pleasantly surprised by how good our stay was.Staff all really friendly,bars incredibly cheap,all areas spotlessly clean,room and pool area nice.Its not a five star hotel but for a base to explore the area it was really good.

Beautiful outdoor space
Lovely place rooms are bright outdoor area was fabulous like a huge garden with plenty of sunbeds. Food in the lunch bar by the pool was amazing and fairly priced. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I had left behind a teddy behind me and they were so helpful on getting it shipped back to me. Went above and beyond truly grateful and appreciative towards the staff. Only fault is the massive hill the hotels situated on but not a deal breaker as everything important made up for it

Great hotel
Im am one of a group of 18 golfers,who have used this amazing hotel for the last ten years,small and friendly,friendly staff,lovely and clean inside and out in the garden,its been modernised over the last couple of years making it an even better place to stay,for short or longer holidays,five minutes from the beach albeit down a steep road,plenty of bars,and restaurants,within easy walking distance. The pool area,and garden have plenty of space to relax,take in the sun,and if you need a pamper,Rene,can give you a relaxing massage,in her tent in the garden,there's also a small gym in the garden. Although we stayed bed and breakfast,which was full of choice,and great to start your day with,overall a great place to stay,and use as a Base for other local attractions.

Absolutely wonderful hotel
Absolutely wonderful hotel. We stayed for a week 16th September & I want to say that the staff are amazing, very polite & helpful everyone of them.😀. Front desk checking in was the easiest ever. The room was clean & overlooking the pool & had the best shower in a hotel. The grounds beautiful & clean with plenty of sun beds all on grass . We were b & b which the breakfast was very good with the best bread I’ve had in a hotel. The staff clear tables very quickly . Didn’t eat in the evening but some days had a lunch by the pool which was cooked to order . Great to have a bar by the pool. No need to rush down to lay towels on the sun beds as there are plenty. This hotel should be 4 star easily . We look forward to staying again, thank you 🥂
