The Clubhouse offers a restaurant with a bar. Dine in the restaurant or enjoy your meal alfresco on the terrace over-looking the pool. Regular evening entertainment is offered. On-site you will also find a sauna, steam room and gym, snooker and pool tables and more.
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
Our second visit to this hotel based on the lively sea front of the Costa del Sol. The hotel is situated in Calahonda close to bars and restaurants. But, situated in a quiet spot very close to the boardwalk that runs from Cabopino to Cala Mijas. Superb for pleasant walks. The hotel staff are really pleasant and helpful. Rooms and facilities are spotless and well equipped. The swimming pool and surrounding grounds are full of shrubs and water features. All in all one of our favourite locations.
Lovely setting right on the beachfront. Large well equipped apartment although a little dated. Comfortable beds. Shower over bath. Well equipped kitchen with oven , hob , washing machine , dishwasher and microwave. Lovely heated pool area , bar and gym and sauna. Not great if you have mobility issues as there are no ramps and lots of steps. Quiet area . Walk along the boardwalk to a few bars /restaurants around the marina.. This takes about 15 mins but beware its pitch black at night walking back. Bus stop outside apartheid for Marbella etc.
Ideal location very close to beach with sun-beds and beach bars with many restaurants. Board Walk 6km in length was available to run or walk with wonderful views. Hotel has two V Shape buildings with varied levels of sea views. Three floors. Not crammed so quite private. You do look into people’s rooms when walking around outside. Pool can get busy, plenty of sun-beds. Bedrooms/apartments are dated in decor and fittings. Reception and bar staff friendly. Be ready for a sharp turn off the dual carriageway when you arrive, we whizzed past twice when we first arrived.
I have never seen infestation to this level before. Throughout the whole complex they can be found inside the apartment, restaurant and inside the walls. When you see the odd one okay. But when they are in the bedroom, toilet that’s when you get concerned. It’s not just a couple number have to be in the thousands.
As always a warm welcome from all the staff at reception, anything needs doing, it is done straight way, nothing is too much trouble. The facilities are great & always a perfect holiday. Thank you.
