    This is a lovely hotel with great facilities, beautiful bedrooms, with comfortable beds and really helpful service at reception. All members of staff smile and say hello when you pass them... The other complaint was the service at Balthazar which was painfully slow... At one point I called the waitress over... She acknowledged me, then took a wine list to some guests, and seated two more couples before coming over... I retrieved a bottle of wine from Spiler that we hadn’t finished and heard them commenting in Spanish about it (not knowing I speak Spanish)...

    Kempinski Hotel Bahia's staff treated us with the utmost care, service, and kindness from the moment we stepped out of the car... The staff makes you want to return to this hotel as soon as possible... Thank you especially to Maria Josè in the restaurant... You served us breakfast every morning the whole week and assisted our daughter with Take Away so that she could play her golf tournament despite the fact that her tee time did not allow her to eat lunch...

In terms of service and staff friendliness, I really appreciated the welcoming and at no time intrusive behaviour...

    ...It was a struggle to get a member of staff to take our drinks order from the sun loungers (which themselves could do with upgrading). The staff we met though, were all faultlessly kind, approachable and eager to help... To conclude, I had a restful and enjoyable stay and I would definitely return... I would suggest, however, that if you are expecting leading 5* service, facilities, and amenities, you may be disappointed...

    ...Kempinski Bahia is an excellent hotel with wonderful staff. There are wonderful gardens in the hotel by the pools and the hotel caters to all... The Kids Club offers daily activities for all young kids and this run by great boys and girls... We didn’t really dine in the hotel except for Breakfast, of which was great and offered everything you could want... 7-8 euro taxi ride down the road and there is a variety of food to be had... Finally, the Hotel is immaculate and has beautiful smells throughout...

    ...Kempinski Hotel Bahia's staff treated us with the utmost care, service, and kindness from the moment we stepped out of the car. Kempinski is a great holiday hotel with a nice pool area, a great restaurant, and a location that is ideal for playing golf or visiting places, restaurants, and bars around Costa del Sol... The staff makes you want to return to this hotel as soon as possible... You served us breakfast every morning the whole week and assisted our daughter with Take Away so that she could play her golf tournament despite the fact that her tee time did not allow her to eat lunch...

    ...We have just returned from an amazing week at this hotel. There were not many other guests apart from the entire Qatari football squad prepping for the world cup so there were no problems getting sunbeds, seats in the restaurants etc which we actually appreciated... The staff are fantastic, every one of them and the gardens superb... We upgraded to a junior suite which was worth the extra and the 180 degree balcony/terrace was the biggest we've ever seen...

    Having booked the Hotel on the basis of the reviews, on entering the hotel foyer it was immediate that the standard of the hotel was amazing, this opinion was only going to increase throughout our holiday , the rooms where of a very high standard and quality , the house keeping staff maintained the quality all week , the outdoor facilities again were excellent,when the children first experienced the outdoor, and immediately realised that it was heated , from that point on we couldn’t keep them out of the pool , only coming out for drinks , ice cream and food , the pool facility certainly made the holiday for the kids . The restaurant staff were again faultless , the quality and presentation was excellent, these high standards continued throughout our stay ... I / we would certainly recommend the Kempinski for a holiday , it certainly exceeds their 5 Star rating ...

    ...Upon arriving we were greeted in a super friendly and welcoming way and were directly invited to have a welcome drink outside with a stunning sea view, while the check-in was prepared. Good way to start a holiday!... There are hardly any points to criticise when it comes to the hotel facilities, everything neat and clean, here and there a touch of paint wouldn’t be too bad but I consider that minimal... Even though the hotel was close to being fully booked, I felt that you can always find a place to relax... The pool/garden area is really beautiful... We tried all, Spiler Beach Club, Balthazar and Black Rose Bar for food and drinks and were never disappointed!... Everyone, from receptionists to waiters and barkeepers were extremely friendly and were always committed to give us the best experience possible... In total, we were very happy and satisfied with our stay, had a great time staying and will definitely return!...

    For the price you pay, this is an impressive hotel. Highlights include the well-maintained gardens, the three pools, and the breakfast offering... I was particularly disappointed that neither the Balthazar nor the Spiler Pool Bar were open... This being said, I did enjoy the Black Rose bar... It was a struggle to get a member of staff to take our drinks order from the sun loungers (which themselves could do with upgrading)... To conclude, I had a restful and enjoyable stay and I would definitely return... The location of the hotel is fabulous and the sea-view never gets old!... I would suggest, however, that if you are expecting leading 5* service, facilities, and amenities, you may be disappointed...

    ...The sea promenade is beautiful and you can walk or bike forever, and also walk to the centre of Estepona... Service was on a very high and friendly level, and so was the breakfast, which was delicious!... Sitting outside in the sun, in winter, with a fresh and tasty variety of food and individual and great service... We like Marbella and Estepona, we love to bike the promenade, the sun and views are great, unfortunately the beaches are terrible...

A fantastic hotel. Amazing location, great views and the gardens and pools are well maintained. The staff were so helpful and friendly. A special shout out to Lisa and all the staff who gave us a sunny welcome to breakfast every morning. Tip: hire bikes from the hotel 25€ each and cycle along the flat cycle path beside the sea into Estapona. Well worth it!!

Recently returned from a 4 night stay with my mum & sister. We had a great time and couldn't fault the service. Beds and rooms really comfortable , cleaning service brilliant . The balconies where a little small- but thats due to the age/ style of the building . Pool area was lovely and very relaxing . We went out most nights but ate at the beach bar and had snacks in the hotel bar one day . Could not fault breakfast - plenty of choice . Hotel is perfect location for Estepona and only a few minutes in a cab. Overall I would return to this hotel - we had a lovely stay .

Words are not enough to describe the way the entire team at Kempinski Bahia made us feel throughout our stay. The view from our balcony every day was such a nice touch, to see the colours of the sea and sky in superb colours both sunrise and sunset. Not to forget about the 3 swimming pools that are another lovely view surrounded by palm trees in all sizes. The food too was outstanding, equal to a Michelin restaurant and service impeccable. The staff are kind local people who bring the best of the Andalucian culture and warmth, with a genuine smile and willingness to do everything to enjoy your stay, which is in fact the ideology of Kempinski brand and values. The comfort of our sleep in large King bed, the softness of the pillows is something which cannot be forgotten too, you can choose which type of pillow you want, you have heated bathroom floors and a high class quality of products from shower gel to conditioner. This was a truly 5 star stay and I would highly recommend this hotel with all my heart to those who want something different that the ordinary and live unbelievable moments in Costa del Sol, Marbella. Thank you so very much to all team for making our wedding anniversary so perfect and unforgettable, I'm sure we'll see you again!

Kempinski trip advisor In true kempinski style, we had such a lovely time here. Came away with my mum for a 9 night stay, and as a platinum member I have stayed at a large number of kempinski’s across the globe, and is my favourite brand. We were greeted with warmth from the get go, starting with Olaf at reception, and were truly looked after. All of the staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly, service with a smile, but a special thank you goes to Bianca, the lady in red, who truly made our stay extra special. She is an asset to not just your hotel but the brand as a whole. Great sense of humour, and always gave a warm smile and a little chat whenever she saw us. It felt like we were staying with family. Nothing was a problem for the hotel, it was very unfortunate I fell ill (not the hotel’s fault!) but the hotel brought up honey, lemon and ginger, and even went out to get some paracetamol for me, and I made a recovery after a few days. In the morning, breakfast has a huge selection of various foods, presented beautifully, with warm and welcoming staff. In particular, the lady who serves freshly made omelettes (I didn’t catch her name!) was always so happy and a delight! Some of the days (although not every day) we were given a chilled health drink which was a really nice touch. We were lucky as we came away in September, so there weren’t that many kids, but the pool has an adults only area which should be in all hotels - it was lovely and quiet and nice to get away from the few squawking kids that were there. The grounds of the hotel are lovely and well kept. The restaurant was closed so we had to rely on the Spiler beach club for dinner, and we got room service a few times as I wasn’t feeling well. The room service menu is rather limited but the food on there is delicious! Food in general at the hotel was a little pricey for what it is (higher than London prices) but was top-notch nonetheless. The spiler beach club was a bit confusing as it had a fairly empty area that was for non-residents only (a strange concept), I heard that the club is separate however it’s on all of the hotel materials so I never quite understood what was going on there. There’s a little boutique shop on premises which sells little bits and some clothes. The housekeeping staff work incredibly hard and our room was made beautifully and spotless every day. The hotel is incredibly clean and their work is faultless. They were always so friendly when we ran into each other! It would have been nice to have pool service as there were a number of staff hanging around the pool areas seemingly not doing anything (they may have been lifeguards, I’m not sure), and other kempinskis I’ve been to have had staff on hand roaming around the pool areas to see if you need drinks or snacks etc, so if I had one critique it would be this. It’s just a little nice touch of convenience. However, it didn’t detract from our stay as it was made up by the impeccable service elsewhere.

Upon entering the hotel you are greeted firstly by Lola and Paco, a cute parrot couple, located in front of the lobby. When you walk through the revolving doors, you find yourself in the beautiful lobby overlooking the sea. Impressive interior design! We did not spend the night but a beautiful day at the hotel. We started the day with an amazing breakfast buffet. The breakfast offers something for everyone. From fresh bread and pastries over eggs (live cooking station) and local charcuterie (Iberian ham and sausages) wonderful cheese to a fresh fruit selection, jams and a honeycomb. If it tickles your fancy, you can also start the day with a glass of cava, fresh juices, etc. There is also a kid‘s corner for the little ones with a variety of cereals, pancakes, etc. Additionally, you find an Asian corner with original dishes, we did not try but looked great. We then moved on to the garden area to spend the day sun bathing and dipping into the pool. The compound is very clean and well taken care of. Views are spectacular onto the sea. With a regular day pass you are provided sun beds, umbrellas, towels and water in a cooler. The staff is super helpful and will provide additional umbrellas when you require additional shade. (If there is anything to moan about, it would be the water cans and plastic straws - here might more sustainable options be more beneficial, though I also understand the comfort aspect). For lunch we went to the beach restaurant „Spiler“ where we had the steak with veggies and chimichurri (exceptionally great) and the burrata with a selection of tomatoes accompanied by two mocktails which were very tasty and especially beautiful to look at. Service was very attentive and helpful. We also visited the sanitary facilities which, in different locations, were all very clean and a little highlight is the soap and lotion from Molton Brown (smells divine). All in all a perfect day with great service, amazing food and spectacular views. Highly recommend!

Visited the hotel for a day at spa and pool. One of the reasons because they have a Tesla charger. However, at the desk they informed that only guests were allowed to use the charger. Very strange to define spa / restaurant visitors paying 400+eur as not guests. Visitors be aware!

Dear Felixe, We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. At our facilities, we have a Tesla charger reserved for our registered guests. This policy is clearly outlined on Tesla's website, which is regularly consulted by their clientele. We are fortunate to see a growing commitment to sustainability, with many of our guests owning electric vehicles and reserving parking to ensure their cars remain charged at all times. However, we do not currently possess a charging point equipped with individual metering, which makes providing this service to all drivers a complex task. We sincerely hope that despite this issue, you were able to enjoy your time with us at our premises. Warm regards, Belén Arenas Director of Rooms
