Great stay in the Sunset Beach!! Abit overwhelming when you get there because it is mental busy but it is all part of the experience. There is loads to do and we barely saw the kids.

The room is tiny but you are never really there.

The staff are all fantastic and made the trip

The property was generally well maintained. Unfortunately some of the guests and children think 2am is a nice time to be rowdyThe breakfasts were fine but some of the buffet dinners bore little semblance to what they purported to be especially asian and Indian.

Have stayed a few times here the late check in was a bit disappointing it I understand some people get early access sadly I wasnt one of those.
It is clean and can get loud but that is just people having fun which they are meant to be doing so.
Facilities all good as well with the local on sit supermarket being well stocked .
Across the road is green monkey burger bar which is great for quality burgers and high street burgers you have a Burger King .
Also across the road is a bigger supermarket

Poor quality of food

The one thing that lets this hotel down is the poor quality of the food in the Dinner Buffet, \"stay away from it\", the Al A Carte restaurant was just a little better, breakfast was very good, why cant they reach the same standard with the Dinner Buffet as the breakfast???? Everything else was very good, friendly staff, very clean, comfortable, great pool area. Alcohol was a little pricey in the bar.

Beach Side Vibes

It was the perfect location for us. Beautiful view of the beach and mountains from our room. We loved having a terrace. Kitchen is small but all we needed to make breakfast, coffee & tea in the morning. There is a grocery store on the resort, but also there’s a large grocery store right across the street (Dai).

We loved the resort feel of the beautiful pools and restaurants. There were lots of chairs and we never had a problem getting one. The only negative is that they don’t provide pool towels (so we brought down our bath towels from the room, but many people had their own from home).

Very close to go in to Malaga for the day. We took Bus 110 and it went right to the historical area near the water (1.70 euros each way). It took 45minutes, but we got to see the area on the way (as one town blends with the next).

We mainly used this as a home base to explore Costa del Sol. Very easy to drive here. Parking in lot filled up quickly but usually some on the street.

All was good, till I saw the maids dump all bottles and cans pop and beer into the garbage. It made me ill to see these items going to a landfill. A guest told us there are recycle bins by the store on main floor, after a week I started to take it down but they were always overflowing…you need to place bigger bins for recycle.and let your guests know where they are, Canadians are big recyclers, paper, glass and plastic and cans. …if your trying to save water don’t take the towels unless they are on the floor….we don’t wash our towels everyday at home. Big improvement needed in this area
Nice to see the hotel post Covid has been upgraded, and renovated, lovely lobby ….since you don’t have help fir baggage ALL front desk staff should know you have carts on floor 6 next to tour desk, we arrived late and when asked for a trolley we’re told there was one large one but no one knows where it is,? We found them T 5pm before our departure…..a had to transfer 5 large pieces and 2 small. It was very difficult…for 2 elderly women.
Entertainment is still the best, bus transportation great and proximity to super markets excellent….
Great staff if you could get to the front of the line…always long lineups. At front desk, phones were not answered
Because they were busy, so what do you do in an Emergency ….when you are alone, You need a better system ….otherwise a lovely stay….

Overall a great stay and the staff weee fantastic and the only thing that let it down was the quality of the food in the a la carte as was quite poor. I would also recommend having the A la carte restaurant separate and in the restaurant to the right of the buffet restaurant which closed early for some strange reason and is of much better ambience and feel than the big free for all in the buffet side.

The hotel rooms are dated and require total reburbishment. We booked a Studio, Seaview, Terrace but when we went to our room, they had given us one WITHOUT a terrace. On returning to Reception they said Expedia had displayed an inaccurate description. There were no studios with terraces. However after complaining our friends (who also booked this category) were reallocated a studio with a terrace (so they did have some) but there were none left for us. We ended up in 3 different rooms in the 5 days of our trip so that we had a terrace but had to work round availability and other bookings. The Hotel Manager was abrupt and reluctant to help. I submitted an official complaint to Expedia 5 days ago but as yet have not received confirmation or a response.

Ok hotel for a short break

We only stayed here 3 nights and felt that was plenty for us, couldn't imagine doing a whole week or two here.

Pro's: Hotel is in a good location, with lots of nice restaurants and bars nearby. The hotel has lots available for children to do.
Predominantly Irish who were staying here, so a lovely friendly bunch with the bar open until the early hours. Lovely big pools which were not too cold but didnt have much of a shallow end - they got really deep quite quickly.

Negatives: The beds are super uncomfortable, actually painfully uncomfortable. There are not enough lifts for the amount of people staying and the number of floors the hotel has - you could be queuing upto half hour for a lift. No lifeguards - occassionally you may have 1 overseeing all pools but they're not very vigilant at all.

An OK family stay

Location is excellent. Staff are fantastic. Pool area is dangerously slippery (the green part). Childrens play area needs a good clean and items fixing. Restaurant is great. Bar is very good. Rooms - way too noisy. Furniture being moved, kids running around etc - there is no sound deadening. Poorly fit patio doors meant I had to change room one night - the doors acted like a perfect whistle and the noise was hideous during a storm. The staff were very good with this. I found the beds uncomfortable and noisy and slept on the sofa bed instead, though this will be a personal thing. Cleaned well though, good size and with sea/pool view which is great. Just all a bit tired and in need of updating.

Top quality hotel with amazing views of the ocean.

Stayed with family for one week towards the end of March 2022 in a delux sea-facing junior suite room on a high floor. The room was neat and clean and the view of the sea from the balcony was simply amazing.

If you are booking this property then the extra price of the sea-facing rooms are absolutely worth it. You will wake up each morning to glimpse the sunrise over the sea, at nights you can see the stars and sometimes lights from distant ships as they sail to their destinations.

The size of the room and balcony was sufficient for a family of 3. There is a king bed and a double sofa-bed, both of which are comfortable to sleep on. The kitchen is quite small but fully stocked. The bathroom is medium sized, with a rainfall shower (no tub).

The beach is a short 2 minute walk from the hotel. A lot of shops and restaurants in walking distance from the hotel. The concierge is helpful and provide slightly discounted tickets for local attractions. The local shop is well stocked, open 7 days, but a little pricey. You will get more value for your money shopping at Dia across the road.

Lots of deck chairs by the two outdoor pools. We did not try the indoor pool, or any of the restaurants in the hotel. Hence can't comment on that.

To be honest, our stay here was amongst the best we have had in Spain. Will definitely stay here again in the future.

highly recommended, especially the sea-facing rooms.

2/ in our room toilet didn't flush properly but it was not big problem

no you wont receive a credit. This is not the way hotels and airlines have reacted to this terrible situation in the 🌍 world.
