Spacious Apartment

The two-bedroom apartment we stayed in was incredibly spacious, allowing plenty of room for our family to move around without feeling cramped. The open layout and large balcony made it feel even more inviting.

Well-Equipped Kitchen

I loved that our apartment had a fully equipped kitchen with everything we needed. Cooking meals became a fun family activity, and we saved a lot by dining in rather than eating out every day.

Our stay at this resort was quite enjoyable. The spacious apartments provided a great living experience, especially with a fully equipped kitchen that made self-catering a breeze.

The hotel offers a decent experience overall. The location is perfect for accessing attractions and dining options, and the apartments are clean. However, some facilities need attention, especially the pool area where maintenance could be improved.

My stay at this resort had its ups and downs. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive, which really made the experience enjoyable. The location is perfect for exploring Benalmadena, as everything is just a short walk away. However, it was quite noisy at times due to thin walls, which detracted from the overall comfort. Despite that, the amenities were good, though having to pay extra for the indoor pool felt a bit inconvenient.
