After just returning last week from the beach club, a group of 4 females in our thirties, all i can say is fabulous .... spotlessly clean .. nightly entertainment fabulous .. food unbelievable choice ... rooms just what you need... location great..... staff cant do enough for you..... caters for all from singles , families, couples,, groups,, young and old .. a little bit for all. close to beach and town a taxi ride to belamadina, malaga, puerto banus, harbour..
just fab.. would give 10/10 apart from a small complaint about a weird security guard. but we soon saw him off !!!!!
super bug haha thats a laugh, no way , dont listen to scare mungerers out to make a few quid,, its one of the best hotels you can stay in, you could eat off there marble floors, ther may have been a small problem a few years ago, but they have certificates all over the hotel , for health and safety. they work so so hard to make your stay a good one, its just great.. go go go go

Myself my husband and our son stayed at the Beach club on 8th-22nd June, as soon as we arrived we felt settled, the reception staff was very friendly.
We stayed in room 412 and had a great view over the pools and a fantastic view of the sea, the rooms where clean and comfortable although the bathroom was ok but there was mould on the sealant around the bath.
Our son was 9 while we was there and I ordered a cake at reception for 15 euros which the restaurant staff bought to the table and also gave us a bottle of champagne, the food was fantastic loads of choice for everyone including myself who is vegetarian, cooked English breakfast every morning and for lunch and dinner many choices including freshly cooked baguettes and freshly cooked pizzas with many different toppings.
The entertainment was fantastic including singers, tribute bands, magic shows, hypnotists, comedians, parrot show, bird show and reptile shows, bingo twice a night and lots of daytime activities for adults and kids.
The entertainment was outside and just though the door there was a small games room, the main games room is upstairs near the reception and our son wanted to be up there at times and that was a problem when the main entertainment was on downstairs.
We went on the train to fuengirola the station is about a 10min walk from the hotel and the tickets was just over 1 euro.
We also went into the centre of Torremolinos and caught the bus outside the hotel it was about 1 euro and I would recommend getting the bus as there is loads of steps if you walk and its all up hill, we walked back and it was a nice walk.
The pool area is lovely my husband came down at 8am every morning and put towels out and we had the same spot for the whole 2 weeks, there was some fantastic people there that we met and some of them had been coming to the hotel for many years, the bar staff was great and they loved the kids.
You was able to smoke in the bedrooms and there is also a smoke room next to the games room you are also free to smoke around the pool area.
I did not need to use the Thompson reps although when I asked them for directions to the train station they was very helpful.
On our last day I asked about keeping our room on as we was not getting collected from the hotel from 7pm, I asked the day before and could keep it on till 5pm for 18 euros.
NO BUG AT THIS HOTEL WHILE WE WAS THERE and I will be going again for sure.
The best all inclusive hotel we have been to wish we was still there.

WHAT A FANTASTIC HOLIDAY
What's all this malarky about a bug!!! There was no bug.
We stayed for 2 weeks and loved every minute of it, my 3yr old son and 7 yr old daughter didnt want to come home.
all the staff was friendly and always had a smile, Lucy and Chelsea (kids entertainment) was brilliant with the kids and Krazy Kelly and Giggly Gemma (kids zone) was fantastic with my kids for 2 hours a day i could put my children in kidszone and have some peace and quite while they were off in a private room having fun, playing games ect.
The food was nice and plenty to choose from and the entertainment was different every night.
I WILL DEFFINATLY BE GOING BACK AGAIN.

Hi to all holiday makers,
Just to let you know that I have just returned from a 2 week holiday at the Beach club, 1 word to describe it “BRILLIENT”.
This is our 3rd visit there in the last 5 years, and to be honest the other 2 places we went to (Salou and Sa Coma in Majorca) had no comparison to the Beach Club.
Firstly let’s set the record straight, THE BUG! what bug, it’s all poppy cock.
There were 4 adults 3 children and an OAP in our party and not 1 of us got THE BUG.
As last time when we went with a party of 17 not one of us got THE BUG.
It’s all about people jumping on the band wagon when they get Spanish Tummy or over indulge in to much drink, rich food, late nights and to much sun.
The Beach Club itself is spotless, maids everywhere cleaning daily, maid service in your room everyday.
The choice of food in the restaurant is great. Such a variety for everyone.
The entertainment at night just perfect, children’s entertainment, bingo, and then the adult’s entertainment, “BRILLIENT”
All the activities through out the day are great ways to make some great friends.
The bar staff very friendly, always smiling and always making you laugh.
Defiantly shall be going back next year

We have just returned back from our holidays on the 11th June after staying for 11 nights. We are a family of 2 adults and 3 children(11, 5 and 20 months) and also my mam and dad went with us. After reading the reveiws I stocked up on diarea tablets!!!
We didnt need these, we thouroughly enjoyed our holiday excellent facilities for all, the kids loved it entertainment was good, service was good and our room was cleaned every single day.
We have no complaints saw NO AMBULANCES or ill people and will most definately return at the same time to the same place next year.

Hi .Anyone Thinking of going to The Beach Club Torrimolinos DON,T My friend and i went on Wednesday 7th May to the BEACH CLUB .On arriving it seemed very quiet and clean. By the Thursday i went down with this BUG first i was violently sick, then it was coming both ends and i was like that all of the holiday and even now i am suffering. We were due to fly home on the 12th and my friend came down with it the night before we were due home on the 12th. We went to the desk and the staff were not interested at all all they would say was 90 euros for the Doctor, but on talking to other guests there was an awful lot of people with it and those that saw the doctor said he said just drink water. Ambulances were arriving day and night to take those people more at risk I. E.
Elderly and children. We heard the Thompsons rep say it was all along the Costa Del Sol but when we got to the Airport nobody else on the plane had problems. I might add that it was not food poisoning as on arriving home the doctor did the tests.I posted a feedback on other sights to warn people not to go to this hotel and apparently it has been going on since the beginning of the year.
I was contacted by a firm of solicitors and they are asking people to contact them if anyone had this problem at this hotel as they are going to do a group action. If you have been and need the contact details i will be more than happy to pass them on as we are going with them as nobody wants a holiday locked in the bathroom of the hotel the whole of the time and the holiday firm we went with denies there was a problem, but it is ironic that since we complained they have took the holiday off their site.
My email is susan.ray1@ntlworld.com Please we must get something done about this hotel or it will end up someone having a more serious outcome
Thankyou Susan

What a fantastic holiday!!!!
We booked this hotel back in January for a Hen party for 12 ladies. As the time grew nearer we saw the change in the reviews. We were very concerned as we had a lady with us who was pregnant and obviously didn't want her catching anything. So eventually we decided to change our hotel but the company said it was too late and AREN'T WE GLAD WE DIDN'T. This hotel is fantastic, we received a very warm welcome the rooms are very clean and adequate. The pools and pool areas are lovely we had no problems getting twelve beds together. The staff were great very friendly and it was ALL INCLUSIVE. The food was FANTASTIC it was not the same every day there was a great choice of food to suit everyone. Great selection of drinks, they don't quite get the concept of the shot but if you ask them for the bottle and do it yourself its fine!!!!!
If you are looking for a lively night out pop down to the 24 hour square in Benalmedena - 15 euros in a taxi great night lots of free drinks and offers. If you are karaoke singers visit Dreambar, great night out about a ten minute walk from the hotel.
OUT OF 12 LADIES THAT WENT NOT ONE OF US WAS ILL THERE OR WHEN WE ARRIVED HOME! So get down to the beach club and have a fantastic holiday.

PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU TRAVEL
went to beach club on may 8th for 2 weeks with partner and 2 children, one that is 1 and the other at 8 for 2 weeks. By the second day i had severe vomiting and diarrhoea and could not leave the room or even stand up. My partner told the thomson rep who advised her that i could pay 80 euros to see a doctor but that there was no point because it was a airborne 24 hr bug that was common in the hotel and that it just had to come out of your system in due course. We spent a fortune in pharmacy for medication. Myself and my partner were extremely annoyed that thomsons had known that this bug had been around for 8 years and had not advised us of this prior to travelling. When i asked her to loq the complaint she would not. Then my partner suffered a full day of severe vomitting and had constant diarrhoea for the remaininder diarrhoea of the holiday. The food, in particular meats were generally undercooked and the sausages were often pink in the middle. The food was the same everyday. There was no point of going all inclusive as we spent a fortune eating out of the hotel. My 8 year old son would not eat anything due to the majority of the hotel being ill and the food not being cooked properly. There was bird excrement all over outside parts of hotel and i advised the manager of this and it was not cleaned. I also found out that the hotel had been closed last year due to food poisening. Despite torremolinos being a great place to visit, the hotel and the thomson's rep ruined the holiday. I spoke to a lady in a prty of 7 away for a week. Of these, 6 were bad and their holiday was ruined. A lady who i met on holiday started a petition about the hotel and many have signed it, she has left it with me and i fully intend on sending it to thomsons and thomas cook as well as infoming watchdog as another friend that i met on holiday has already done so. One area that cannot be faulted is the idzone girls gemma and kelly they made the hotel that little bit pleasant. DONT GO TO BEACH CLUB UNLESS YOU HAVE GOT A STOMACH OF STEEL.

Hi ,
I and My friend and i went to the Beach club All Inclusive on the 7th May within 48 hours we were struck down with this virus ending our holiday before it began as we could not go anywhere except the bathroom. 75% of the guests were down with it , Ambulances were arriving day and night to take people to hospital
Is there anybody going to this hotel in the near future can they contact me . Or has anyone had any idea what the virus is as all i know is it was not food poisoning.
We arrived home on the 12th May and to be honest we are still not feeling 100%, also we have both lost weight so if anyone can throw any light on what the virus is we would be grateful
Thanks Susan

We have just spent 2 weeks at the Beach Club Torremolinos, what a waste of money this Holiday was. We had only been there 3 days when I came down with the SIckness and Diarrhoea Bug. I spent all night running to the toilet and feeling very ill, the next day unable to get out of bed because I felt so weak.The following day my Husband was also very ill with the same Bug it took him a few days to recover.The rest of our Holiday was ruined as we had terrible stomach pains and nausea and was only able to drink or eat very little. Twice during the second week I came down with Diarrhoea again, thank goodness for Imodium. Our Sister and Brother-in-Law also had the same Bug and along with us reported this to the Thomson Rep who filled in a form on our behalf and said it would be Faxed off to head office. We spoke to a lot of people in the Beach Club many had been ill ( or were ill) with the same Bug including Children. Before my Husband and I became ill we had not over-indulged with either food or drink or been out for meals or been on any trips or swam in the pool or had ice in any drink.We had been on Beach Club premises all the time.This Holiday was completly ruined with the Bug we pick up whilst staying at the Beach Club and this was meant to be a special Holiday as it was part of our Golden Wedding Celebrations, We would not recommend anyone to stay here until the Sickness and Diarrhoea Bug as been completly eradicated. We have written to Head Office to complain and deserve compensation, for a RUINED TWO WEEK HOLIDAY.

My wife and I booked a week in the sun for our wedding anniversary. Also, as we have been ill for some time with arthritis, I thought that sunshine and relaxation would help us.
The day we arrived, my wife caught a stomach bug and was severely ill for several days with vomiting and diahorrea. A few days later I fell ill with the same condition and ended up in hospital on a drip. The diagnosis was food poisoning. We soon discovered that we weren't the only ones and that people staying at the hotel were dropping like flies.
When I returned to the hotel from hospital, I informed the reception staff what had happened. They couldn't have cared less. We went on holiday for a rest and ended up more ill than before we left!
On returning home, I was horrified to find that this problem has been going on for years at this hotel. How can tour companies be able to continue to send people back to this hell-hole year after year? I am disgusted.
