Beautiful hotel . We had a wonderful stay. Staff excellent and reception highly efficient . Great food available for lunch and the breakfast buffet is fabulous with everything you could possibly want .Need to be careful regarding room choice / allocation as some rooms look away from the property with a disappointing view of neighbouring apartments and waste area . Also some partial sea view room have a huge tree mostly blocking the wonderful view . My room was quickly swapped to a fantastic alternative with minimal inconvenience. I would highly recommend this hotel - also 5 minute walk to the Old Town which is very convenient .

Because of the massive power outage, our train from Madrid to Malaga was stranded for overnight, we had to hire tax driving to Marbella the next day. We missed the first night of our two days stay. But the hotel people said they didn’t handle the refunds and asked me to make request through agency. Yet the contact person (Mae) told me it depends on the hotel… seems they were kicking the ball?

A beautiful modern beachfront hotel just a 5 min stroll away from Marbella old town. Minor hiccups: at check in they said we’d have complimentary daily half liter water, the next day they said this was just a one off for the first day, then the day after they changed that again. The breakfast buffet is great, but the ham they call “iberico de bellota” is clearly “Serrano” (much cheaper) instead, based on color, texture, lack of marbling, flavor etc

6-Night Stay Dec-2024

The hotel is lovely & check-in was very smooth. We did not realise, however, the hotel was closing on the Sunday & although we can appreciate staff looking forward to their holidays, service was quite lax (not unpleasant, just staff were mainly absent, something unexpected from a 5 Star hotel, where in every other area, they excelled) - this was both in the bar, in the restaurant; breakfast service, however, was excellent I do believe if we had known the hotel was closing, we would have changed our booking by one-day, so we were disappointed that a) we were not able to use any of the facilities on the final day (or sit by the pool) & b) the service had slipped It is a beautiful hotel though, in an excellent position, we were just disappointed as we are used to hotels exceeding our expectations
