Hotel Benalma Costa del Sol

The hotel position in the beach was fabulous. The roof terrace with jacuzzis a great feature

Hotel has been refurbished it looks like new. Rooms have a fantastic view of the sea (we were floor 11). Bar staff very friendly and serve some really nice wines as part of the al inclusive. The Thai restaurant was superb and although we dined out at various restaurants this was by far my favourite meal of the week. Rooms are clean with good air con. We were also given a bottle of fizz for our anniversary which was a lovely surprise after a day on the beach

I highly recommend this hotel resort for a peaceful getaway. There were a mixture of couples, families, friend groups at the hotel. It was not rowdy. We enjoyed the different bars the hotel had to offer, plenty of areas to hang out. The beds were extremely comfortable and the air conditioning was very good and there was a ceiling fan too which was good as air conditioning stopped when the balcony door was open. The room was spacious and so was the bathroom. The sea view from the room was beautiful and an amazing way to wake up. The breakfast dining area overlooked the beach and sea which was also lovely. We enjoyed the adult pool area and the rooftop sun lounge and Jacuzzi area. The hotel location was in a really quiet peaceful area away from the hustle and bustle but was close enough to the Marina and the Pueblo of Benalmadena. There were some nice local cafes and restaurants within walking distance. The hotel is really clean and beautifully decorated. It is right on the beachfront. There are bus stops right at the hotel and a train station about 15 mins walk that goes to goes between Malaga and Fuingerola. This is really great if you want to visit the city or the Plaza Mayor outdoor mall they are great day trips. The BioPark in Fuingerola is lovely too. Taxis are cheap to the Marina and Pueblo areas around 10-14 euros.

Beautiful location and uninterrupted sea views. We were all inclusive, so although the buffet can be a bit same, it always had good choices at breakfast, lunch and dinner. Our room was spotless and comfortable. The balcony was a good size to sit out comfortably to enjoy a coffee in the morning or drink in the evening. The female singer on Sunday was brilliant, very entertaining and engaging with the audience. All staff - reception, cleaning, restaurant and bar were welcoming and helpful. We’d definitely return.

The properly looks to have been recently renovated, it was spotlessly clean and very nice interior. We were breakfast only so can only comment on the breakfast being nice, plenty of choice. We ate at the Barista bar downstairs on the Saturday and the food was lovely there too but this is only open on the weekend.
