The hotel deserves its four stars. The rooms are beautiful, the restaurant and the food is very good. The complex of the swimming pools is too small in a peak season. We are always to the beach gone. Here costs the loungers 8 E exactly like de loungers in the Beach Club. The beach is very long and beautiful. The sea but very cold, even if the mediterranean. Unfortunately the hotel has during our presence four buses with young lead received during a week. These have at o'clock at night very much ranted, here would have the hotel more security ... people used. A room in the swimming pool is definitely to avoid. read more

    Very nice big room with a seating area and a balcony, everything bright and friendly and clean. We had a room with a view the appt. Next door and found that very good. Room to the pool could have been a bit noisy.

  • Gastronomy

    The food is simple top. To the breakfast, lunch and dinner you serve yourself at the rich buffet. Some things directly freshly prepared ( fried), you just have to say what you want. The food at the snack bar was also plentiful and delicious.

    The service in the hotel is very good. They are all very friendly, the rooms are very well cleaned with daily change of linen.

    No animation you should not. Evenings live music, there is a shop in the hotel, the pool area is small and the loungers are a bit cramped. We were staying at the beach where one also an stains find something. The loungers on the beach and beach Club cost, Euro. Since we however never the entire day at the beach were we didn't use them. There are bath-towels every day fresh.

    The location at the beach is good, you can go to the pool area over a small street to the beach where the beach Club is. The evening stroll there is at the hotel no shops only the beach promenade invites you for strolling to Puerto Banus a approximately 10 to 15 minutes

Top hotel with a tiny *hair in the soup*: the musical entertainment in the hotel itself ( for the food, in the bar) one can-but one didn't have to. Now and then somewhat *fresh* would have been nice too. And the solo entertainer... Well. Apart from that: hard to beat! Class! Staff: super friendly and attentive - with it never importunately. Food: A dream! Breakfast: oK-this could be variety purely... But for breakfast is difficult. Shops: you must stop to Puerto banus - about 15 minutes footpath. There however a great assorted shopping center. Just do it! read more

Nice beach hotel-small and comfortable-opened construction with a lot of water-golden mile Marbella-very good location for activities-good club (beach chairs cost eight euro per person-but well worth it) with air conditioning pool and a great view. Good restaurant on the beach walks along the beach/promenade about 15 minutes to Porto banus Marbella old town about 40 minutes after we had a very commodious and newly renovated Junior suite-all in bright colors, 20 years since to Marbella-and I am sure to return to the Carol beach, because price/performance ratio is right over here. read more

We were in the hot July ten days without too many expectations. But it was a wonderful Time in a really first class hotel. the rooms are spacious, the furnishing and beds great. The balcony (, although only a partial garden view of the neighboring apartment complex but-and this was the really good morning sun and nachm. Or in the evening pleasantly cool) was very large. We needed at night, no air conditioning and could opened Door sleep. The whole area was very well-kept, with many ponds at the inn and the outdoor area and numerous koi's it. Beach chairs ... were always enough and were greeted by the very friendly pool staff immediately with towels. In addition to the main pool there was the smaller in the 'beach club'. Part of the hotel, but it was only through the back door, a small street in the wall along toward the beach. The deficit was, eight€ entrance per person per day. It was honestly not worth it. However, for a small lunch wonderful with a view over the sea. However, the prices were quite high. We had just bed and breakfast, which was really very rich and very high quality. The breakfast restaurant has a comfortable atmosphere and is located in the basement. Here, too, the staff was very attentive and always friendly. Also in the rooms, the beds on the afternoon for the night and with a down comforter provided. All in all, a highly recommended hotel, a bit away from the action. The best rental car from the ap. Parking spaces there were always enough available. Our conclusion: if marbella, then again and again the coral beach nearby porto banus. read more
