Costa del Sol Occidental accommodation from NZ$71

I was not happy that this huge resort that was almost empty ( low season of November / floods) and yet I was assigned a room that had a door separating it from the next one ( junior suite) occupied by family with little kids. Annoyed little with noise. I would have complained but noise stopped around 9:00 PM which was bearable. The staff were very friendly.

When we arrived early as check in was 1600 they allowed us to check in and gave us free upgrade which was much appreciated. We dropped bags in bag store and went out to explore and they were brought back to our room at 1600. The hotel is very large made up of lots of sections with a free train bus at certain times to get around. We walked all over and it’s a very well kept lovely looking resort. We had an apartment on 2 floors with 2 bedrooms, garden patio with sun loungers that backed onto pool. There was also jacuzzi. There were about 4-5 restaurants and bars and some shops on site. The apartment was clean, comfy, and could house 6 people as had a very comfy double sofa bed also. Had a hi fi with Bluetooth connectivity and tv with many English channels and sports etc. WiFi free throughout and your own private WiFi in your apartment also free. WiFi was always fast. Kitchen has cooker, oven, microwave, washing machine and all facilities you’d need. Staff were all lovely and always say hello. Grounds and garden are beautiful. Bus stop out front of resort but we liked walking along beach/seafront. First bars etc after 15 mins but to get to the centre is about 35 mins walk. Getting to hotel was easy. Got train to fuengirola from Malaga and then taxi from train station. Train to was about 3 euros. Taxi about 12 euros from fuengirola station to hotel. Too hilly to walk with case. All in all had a great stay and will definitely return.

Very clean, excellent breakfast, nice employée, very well located, proximité of buses. Pillows are really not confortable and the room (mid-november) was really hot.
