We were informed that cleaning was not included in the price, and we also had to pay extra for fresh towels, which was disappointing.
That said, the apartment itself was nice, spacious, and comfortable. Having a fully equipped kitchen was a big plus and made our stay much more convenient.
There were no beach views from the apartment, but the beach itself was beautiful and within easy reach.

We have returned here 3 times in the past 12 months. The staff (in every department), resort, links to transport, friendliness of other residents (and owners) you cannot beat coming here. Already planning my next stay. This resort is for the young and elderly with accessibility for prams, mobility scooters thanks to a lot of input from my Dad, the memorial bench is beautiful and a perfect addition to the stunning grounds! The whole team go above and beyond even in the restaurants and in the strips at the top of the resort too. This place is our second home 🥰🇪🇸✈️

Great location, easy reach to the boardwalk, beach, chiringuito, bars and restaurants.

Check-in process has too many rules and is too late (5pm) unless you pay extra.

Room had everything you could need. We were in Sofia and enjoyed a sea view. Could benefit from a throw for those colder mornings / evenings. Rooms need better soundproofing, especially for the busier months.

Whilst the room was clean the decor is very tired throughout. Outerlying areas were clean and tidy within the complex but some areas could do with a fix up - broken tiles, steps etc. Chevk in was quick and easy.The nearby resturants offer a variety of good food and were reasonably priced. We did not make use of the spa facilties on site.

The Dona Lola complex is perfect for your family vacation, they look after you from day 1 until the end of your trip. The staff are amazing, facilities are great and the beach, restaurants and shops are local. My only issue on this trip was the apartment was very small compared to last 7 years of us going and the smell wasn't great. This could easily be forgiven after 7 years of faultless trips. We are back in July 2026 for our family vacation.

Good but needs updating

Great location and good apartments. However, the propery is \"itred\". Needs modernising. Also very disappointed with the apartment we were given, even though the complex was quiet and not at full occupancy. Our balcony had no view and felt very boxed in when you were seated on it. Yet, I'd booked an apartment with a sea view - it was only from the living room window, and not the balcony. Otherwise, place is clean and convenient.

Great position with many facilities.

This complex is in a great position, right on the beach and next to the boardwalk. It has a really large outdoor pool and an indooor one, a laundrette, restaurant and bar on the site The gardens in particular are really lovely and well kept. There are several very good and stylish restaurants next to the complex but the only small supermarket was closed meaning a longish walk across the road bridge and beyond to the nearest shop - not great if carrying wine, bottles wate etc etc. The apartment was spacious and well equipped but i would have liked a change of towels and bedlinen (without having to pay for this) as we were staying for seven nights.

Stayed here 3 times before so knew what to expect. Lovely complex with parking, security gate, clean & comfortable accommodation. Great cafe/restaurant on the site and numerous restaurants and a supermarket just round the corner. We had paid for terrace with sea view but the view of the sea could only be seen if you stood up on the terrace! Shame as we couldn't sit with our drinks and look out. The only view was a wall. I'll double check when we return.

Overall a decrnt property, good sized rooms, all you need for a self catering holiday. The property is just a little dated.
Surprisingly a deep pool almost 2.5m a nice change. If you want to eat out almost every kind of restaurant out front, but does cost, no cheap and cheerful types.
The onsite shop not to overpriced.
Staff all good.

We are a family of 4, 2 adults and 2 kids 17 & 15.

We did have some issues with the booking itself as we got a call from macdonal resorts asking if we could move rooms part way through the holiday, i said no and they made the rooms work, but i was very disappointed in this, as the woman on the phone did not appear to care or understand why it could be a issue.

Doña Lola resort - another good McDonald resort

It was a good experience- this one was our second stay at a McDonald resort in Mijas. On arrival the person who did our checking was wonderful and very helpful (Antonio). Property was in good condition although our apartment building did not have an elevator(though we did not need it). Service staff was very helpful- we had an issue with the electricity and it was fixed immediately by replacing the electrical breaker. Same 4 replacement towels/toilet paper/kitchen paper/dishwasher salt/rinse aid. Facilities were very good: pool, restaurants, etc. Scheduled Events were also good: ABBA, wine tasting, sports events etc. Pool restaurant food and service was excellent. My only complaint and not trying to be picky is that the bed mattresses were hard same 4 the pillows. The other thing is that when I went to return my keys the gentleman at the reception offer me help with a cab ( we were driving), but he did not ask about how was my stay or something similar

We were robbed, room was unsafe, window lock was broken, thieves broke into room in the middle of the night, terrible, money purses wallets handbags stolen from 1st floor apartment. Really upset us, ruined the holiday. Didn’t the hotel have some sort of duty of care that our room should have been safe, we could have been attacked/killed??
Management were horrendous, told us it had never happened before. Hotel initially told us they had no proof,there are footprints on external walls as they climbed in, handprints on external window frames, camera in hotel grounds, hotel then sent maintenance next morning when we were out, told us the window was not faulty, 4 people checked the windows on the morning after the robbery, it would not lock. Today I was told 1st floor apartments are having burglar railings installed on 1st floor rooms. Hotel told me to claim my losses through my travel insurance.WHY?? This was the hotels duty of care to have us in a secure room with working locks on the windows. I have to question in a resort of this size that a robber knew to climb to my first floor terrace to my window thst didn’t lock to rob us when there we’re probably 100 first floor rooms to climb to?? Seems like a inside job that someone knew our window didn’t lock??

Great apparthotel in perfect location

Stayed in a one bedroom apartment and it was very comfortable. Sofa in the living area could have been better, but it was a sofabed so not so good in sofa mode. We booked as a hotel and so assumed that normal hotel conditions apply and so daily cleaning and refresh of toiletries would happen, but none of this was included. The rest of the resort was very nice with decent facilities loads of places to eat inside or just outside the premises. The pools were good and direct beach access was great too.

The leisure centre was well equipped and easy to access. La Plaza Lounge was staffed by a lovely girl called Carolina who worked extremely hard and was welcoming to all visitors. The food served was always first class, No matter how busy it was. Corrus provided excellent entertainment and was welcoming to all nationalities. Spanish lessons, Wine tasting and Paella demonstration with the help of Chris from La Plaza Beach. I'm only sorry I missed the garden tour because the gardens were exquisite. It was good to have an adult only pool. I had three treatments with the masseur Francisco but was expecting more services according to the brochure. \" with qualified beauticians\". La Plaza Beach was also staffed with excellent staff who were welcoming me by name and knowing my drink requirements by about my third visit. The Entertainment on Mondays, Wednesday and Thursdays was really worth booking a table for. There was a minor problem with teeny tiny little antlike insects in the kitchen which appeared to come up through the sink. I kept the plug in which helped to control them. There was a note in the information book that said electricity would be charged at the end of my stay so i was being very sparing with the electric but it transpired that this only applied to Timeshare properties and not those booked through Expedia. If i had a worry about anything the staff in reception always sorted it out without any delay. Diego was the person I had most contact with.

Friendly staff. Nice pools and restaurants. Spacious apartments, although dated decor. Clean and well kept grounds. We stayed 9 nights. Could have done with a cleaning service after a week. Not recommended if you have an aversion to obnoxious Northerners from the UK.

The apt looked very clean but the floors were very dirty-needs a mop. Otherwise we liked it a lot and would stay again.

great value for money and good restaurants on site

Check in is late in the day but this didn't bother us as we arrived about 5.00pm anyway. The apartment was very nice, and had everything we needed, good bathromm and shower, the only issue was the room was set up as 2 single beds so we just pushed them together. As we were near the pool in Christina 102 we did find an issue with the lights being on all night outside and the curtains being thin, I had to drape 2 towels over the railings outside the window to get to sleep but apart from that everything was good value. The added value is having several very good restaurants on site, the Indian and Italian were used, and both were excellent, we would return without hesitation.

A lovely place to visit for some winter sun

The apartment was lovely. A little bit dated, but very comfortable. Everything we needed was provided and the level of cleanliness was very good. The facilities at Dona Lola were excellent, even though we went in February. The pools were clean and well maintained. The availability of services and places to eat were excellent.

Really nice place, stayed in a 2 bedroom unit with a very nice ocean view. Conveniently located next to (within walking distance) of many restaurants. The onsite restaurant has great food and a great view.

Great location and view

There was an issue with the apartment next door so we were upgraded to a front row unit while they carried out some repair work.
The apartment was amazing with everything you would need. The views of the sea and boardwalk were amazing.
All the staff were masks and social distancing was observed at all times.
The location is great for walks up and down the boardwalk and there are plenty of facilities locally.
