Typical beach vacation in spanish

  • September 2012
Probably a holiday destination for spaniards, which we thought was pleasant, as we Germany on vacation flies, in order to recover German to meeting. With English worked it at the front desk in any case, German only conditionally. Beach and promenade was nicely decorated. There is many beach dealers, the usually not annoying. On one hand you even looking forward to it, because he always in a good mood with his singing songs has spread. However is benalmádena blocking with hotels and vacation apartment ( mainly with spanish). It is however not so bad like the corners with ugly hotels ... on Mallorca ( Arenal). If German and English in such hotelstädten is it mostly unpleasant. Food: not so much to choose from but it has us but always tasted and the quality of the food seemed to be good. Beach: one had a strak driven street cross and on the green light you had to always wait a while. Bar: barkeeper( inside) were always very polite and helped (if you for example as I for his friend a breakfast to the room to-) Environment: no elevated environment and very touristy, but not unpleasant. To the harbor should in any case time walk. There was some street vendors, the then quickly annoying. Hotel: room and hotel were clean. Public transportation: there were buses but we had a hired car. read more

Замечательное местоположение. Отличный отель, не так далеко От пляжа ( примерно 8 минут ходьбы ). Просто восхетительная еда, мы много путешевствовали, но настолько вкусно нас ещё не кормили :-) Море не совсем расчитано на маленьких летей, через два 3-4 метра очень глубоко. Очень удобное место относительно экскурсий, мы всё объездили. Нам понравилось. read more

    The food was varied and very good. There were always 3 meat- and fischsarten to choose from as well as pizza, pasta and local side dishes. Merely the juices were plentiful sweet and the coffee not quite our taste. Evenings there are 3 types of ice, different pastry, cakes and pudding. The service was fast and good.

    From the hotel takes you in 5 minutes to the very clean sandy beach, which every morning from the dirt cleaned. The beach chairs with sun screen for 9 Euro per day rent. The hotel is traffic wise well connected. From the nearby bus station one can with the line 110 about minutes after malaga for 1.45 Euro ( with the chip card, the tabakchop is available, reduced the price on 0.96 Euro) drive. Bus plan directly and information on urban transport, there is directly in the touristenformation on the beach promenade, times also in the hotel. The bus connection to and from the train station in benamaldena is after 21:00 are not possible. From the airport you can take the public bus journeys. Nearby there is McDonald's, burger king and towards the Marbella also supermarkets.

    To the beach you will in less than 10 minutes. At the end one must still the road überkqueren, is übrügens good traffic-disadvantage, but right here bus stops both directions and a ausflugsstand-is the advantage. Afterwards the promenade and the beach. Own beach the hotel has not.

The hotel was a 4 star booked, it didn't. These are at best three stars. Very unfriendly staff. Every evening the same dishes at the buffet. Guests rather locals, French, East Europeans. Hotel has no beach. One must loungers for 9 €on the day. Costa del Sol very stony beach. Good a round trip had booked, where I almost the whole day on the way was a big downside the trip was not organized transfer the Abholpunkten the various excursions. This had to every even on foot or by taxi early in the morning more. The excursions whereas were worth ... seeing and partly well organized. Only the multi-lingual groups disturbed. In the hotel there is no possibilities for recreation. The 'animation' in the evening needed getting used to. Since it is better to go into the place. I have now seen, the journey is around €150 cheaper, strange! read more

We had a short break to relax and are exactly right with this choice of location. Despite the size, with nine floors it was surprisingly quiet. The only problem, the elevators, was already known by other reviews. The atmosphere and the furnishings in the dining times, however, we need to say a word. We cannot judge the fremdsprachenkenntnisse, since we speak Spanish. The staff, especially the animation, were very friendly. The food was very delicious and plentiful. There was always fresh fish, there were all sorts of meat, paella etc.. read more

    The food was always very good, half board: salad buffet, hot dishes buffet and desserts buffet -always fresh and plentiful. Buffet Breakfast: Sausage, Eggs, Fruit, Yogurt, Cheese, Sweet, juice and a delicious coffee... A thousand things to do. Very clean in the restaurant, prices for the drinks were cheap. Why do I not full marks: the restaurant is a little on the small side for this hotel, during rush hour it was like at the fairground, you had to wait in the hallway. The spanish temperament( as mentioned, there were almost only locals in this hotel)... Crazy like to go there.

    We were hardly by the pool, it was clean, there was no entertainment, we didn't want to. The beach was nice, clean and fine sandy. Beach chairs to rent would be expensive former, we bought a luma and put us under a palm tree. In the evening there was a show, flamenco, Kiderdisco... If you constantly entertainment is in another hotel but certainly better repealed.

    To the beach about five minutes along a side street, shopping possibilities there are enough Benamaldena, entertainment Opportunities-but everything designed for mass tourism, no restaurants or bars, but unfortunately only very tasteless and without Charme a fast food chain la. Very recommendable pueblo Benamaldena and mijas (well reached with the bus).
