Tripadvisor Reviews
Lovely Hotel
Very clean hotel, refurbished room which was cleaned daily. The staff are pleasant and helpful. Pool area is nice and overlooks the prom and beach. There is 20% off at the beach club opposite, we spent 2 days out of our 7 there. There were plenty of lifeguards around as the water was a bit rough due to the wind. As mentioned in other reviews the age group is definitely older, 65+, I would say, but it does make for a relaxed and quiet environment. We didn’t stay in for the entertainment as we prefer to go out in the evening, had a nice stroll along the prom and found some decent bars. There was a TUI rep there every day if needed. We got a taxi to Mijas Pueblo one day (and the bus back), which was a lovely day out. We also got the ferry to Benalmádena from the port for a change of scene (definitely preferred Fuengirola). The food was average really, I think I expected a bit better for a 4 star but it was okay. There was always sunbeds available, although some people were there at 9 am to reserve their preferred ones! Would return and do the Ronda trip as well next time.
Yarapoor Hotel Cold Food Poor Service
If you like cold food and poor service then I thoroughly recommend this hotel This is supposed to be a TUI Blue hotel however having stayed in other TUI blue locations I believe the Yarama needs to have this title removed.
Invariably whenever we go to the restaurant there are never any tables set and ready for guests with many either full of empty plates or been cleared and not reset on one occasion we asked a server if there were any set tables for us to sit at she just held her arms out and shrugged her shoulders.
Food is left out on the servery without temperatures being regularly checked and is invariably always only just luke warm show cooking food is not cooked to order and in our experience is also luke warm, when pointed out it wasn’t hot they suggested they could reheat it (chicken???) We even witnessed one guest heating his cooked breakfast in the provided microwave.
Rooms are lovely and clean and appear to have recently been modernised however there is no drawers or places to store clothes apart from a couple of shelves in the wardrobe and nowhere to put your suitcases so room always looks untidy and cluttered
They advertise happy hour but cocktails aren’t included.
Pool towels are provided but if you want to change them during your holiday it costs you €1.00 per towel. Never had this before.
Overall for what you pay it’s very overpriced and certainly not good value for money
We certainly won’t be stopping here again
Poor value
Hotel spacious and clean. Lovely room. Food good but restaurant service awful. Set the table myself 3 times. Had to ask for a drink one night....another night just had no drink. Tables not cleared or re set.
Relaxing Stay, Good Food and Friendly Staff
The hotel is very well located with a nice atmosphere. Food at both Breakfast and Dinner was plentiful and we had no issues. We could always get a space by the pool, and can understand the charge to replace your beach towel. The beach club opposite is also worth a try, if only for a lunch of fresh fish. Noise from the evening entertainment in the bar area may be a bit of a problem, if you're on a lower floor. We did have a small problem with our room during our stay. The night staff resolved it as best they could at the time. In the morning thanks to Miguel we were given a replacement room and the situation was resolved very calmly. We'd like to thank Miguel for his patience.
fabulous place
Does not get much better than this. Location, location, location. restaurants all around .Lovely buffet breakfast with everything except bagels and smoked salmon.
Staff was terrific. Junior suite on 15th penthouse floor was perfect with lots of sitting room with great balcony offering view of beach and sea views in both directions, beautiful sunrises. Maid service twice a day, big bath towels and comfy bathrobes.
Pool was lovely, with aquatic exercises every day at noon with terrific Emi. Live entertainment every night.
People we met there have returned year after year, some have stayed at other hotels along the beach but said Yaramar was best by far.
Speaking of beach, easy to walk into and shallow quite a way out. It is beautiful and incredibly well serviced; lifeguards, showers, bathrooms, wood walkway to close to water, areas with support for handicapped people, lounge chairs covered by umbrellas for a cost but room to bring your own chairs. The garbage service is fun to watch.
A few complaints. Constant music at pool-some quiet time would be welcomed. Hot tub is accessible only by stairs and not very hot.
Would be nice to offer laundromat services in the hotel. A good one was available a few blocks away,
See you there next September-best time to be there.
