"Second time staying here and it was amazing super easy access to the pools and the beach, and you can get to Marbella and Mijas Pueblos in just a few minutes15-20. There were four of us, including two small kids, and it worked perfectly for a family stay."

"Staff are fabulous here at Wyndham. Breakfast was really lovely with so many delicious options. Swimming pools are gorgeous. Only downside was the room description on hotels.com. I didn't expect a studio room when I had paid for 'a deluxe junior suite'!!! Really thin walls so could hear everything from next door, including their 1am arrival at the resort, reorganising all the furniture and cooking food!!! The actual resort is gorgeous and has everything you need right there! The beach is a 10 minute walk away too, if you like to go to the beach!"

Benalma Hotel Costa del Sol

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful views in all areas of the hotel. Stylish and modern decor, very relaxed. It is split across numerous levels so need to use lifts to access different parts. We were all inclusive and it wasn’t clear at the adults only pool what snacks were included. Pools open at 10am which is very helpful to stop sun lounger hogging. Cocktails not included in the all inclusive, but still a good selection of drinks with generous measures. The restaurant is well set out and good offer was good. The roof top area with jacuzzis and cocktail bar on an evening is stunning."
