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 numerous pools and-especially-kind staff contributed to a delightful atmosphere. However, we were taken aback by the charges for late checkout, which felt a bit steep. Still, the location was ideal for exploring nearby attractions, making our overall visit memorable.

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. Our stay was enjoyable, but certain aspects did not meet expectations, such as the lack of maid service and the age of the furniture in the apartment.

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.

I had a lovely time staying here, especially with the spacious and well-furnished apartment that was perfect for my family's needs. The indoor pool was a highlight for us, and the location was just ideal, being so close to the beach and local attractions. While the strict pool rules did dampen our kids' fun a bit, the overall experience was still very enjoyable, and I can definitely see us returning for another holiday.
