A good quality hotel: spacious, clean and well appointed rooms; food pretty good,especially breakfast (dinner was less appealing and it paid to ask for freshly cooked meat/fish rather than eat the slightly older food on the hotplates). Pleasant outdoor pool and space. We went in the low season and the beach bar had reduced its opening hours. Still issues over poor free internet access (access in rooms is charged). No character but convenient - easy stroll to Puerto Banus. We thought that the hotel was on the beachfront but it is 50 yards back. Still very easy access.

This hotel is really well located, the staff are lovely and friendly and the rooms are well kept. It's a quick walk into Puerto Banus, or a cheap (€7-8) taxi ride to Marbella to put you in the action. The breakfast is pretty good, offering the standard stuff such as pastries, fruit, omelettes and the like.

I wasn't really convinced that this place cost as much as it charges, it values itself a little highly. The rooms, although well sized and clean, have little privacy due to the walls being so thin. The atrium also does carry noise which can be a touch loud at times. The suites are a little bit of a let-down; the hot-tub was filthy and didn't seem as if it had been cleaned for a good while. The food on offer aside from breakfast is simply dreadful, I can't tell you enough to avoid it! The pool area is a bit on the cramped side but this can be remedied by escaping to the beach club.

Still, not bad due to the location and the service, you could do a lot worse.

Hotel:- Despite the fact that this is definitely not the best 4star hotel we have stayed in, compliments should go to the staff on breakfast duty who were 'top notch' and the food was quite acceptable. Shame that it is not possible to have some outside tables though. Although our room was showing signs of wear, it was furnished well with comfortable beds. Light, bright and clean with plenty of mirrors, sockets and good wardrobe space. Very disappointing that the air conditioning appeared to be 'turned off' during the night as this is when I appreciate it most - not good enough!
On arrival we were given a voucher for a complimentary cocktail at the SEASOUL Club. Despite the opening times being quite clearly displayed at the hotel exit and outside the club (closing 11.30pm) we had to make a special early visit before 6.30pm (which after a couple of disappointments we discovered to be the actual closing time!) to receive the only alcoholic 'cocktail' offered which was a very weak Sangria. The staff there were most unfriendly.
To end on a good note, the hotel is positioned well, much nearer to Puerto Banus than Marbella but both very pleasant walks along the coast. For a great meal, close by, pop across the main road to El Carnicero Grill, lovely place.

Believe all the positive reviews. The staff are very friendly, there are plenty of loungers by the pool and the buffet breakfast and dinner are excellent. Perfect location for a quiet relaxing holiday and only 45 mins from Malaga Airport by car.
