Great stay, perfect for what we wanted
We stayed at the Guadalmina for 4 nights. We were looking for a short sunny break in a hotel with a great pool, easy access to the beach, with a bit of quality about it, good food and good rooms..... and we were really pleased with the choice we made. The hotel is in a great location - all residential so we got cabs to Puerto Banus each night, E10 each way - but it was great to have access to all the great people watching/range of restaurants and shops etc... but then have the quiet hotel area during the day. The food and drink at the hotel... more

Dear Customer, First I would like to thank you for choosing our hotel to enjoy your holidays. I'm glad you have been happy in the hotel and that her daughter enjoyed the pool, the truth is that most of our clients are very comfortable in it. The pool is seawater and that is unique on the Costa del Sol. Regarding the drink prices, I would tell that we are cheaper than most 4 star hotels in the area and our restaurants have had an average of 150 diners at lunch and dinner every day. Thank you very much for your attention and cooperation, I hope to see you soon back in the hotel to welcome again. Yours sincerely.

Lovely but expensive to eat at
Mixed feeling over this hotel, probably because we were given 3 dull rooms that hardly got any sun and didn't have a private terrace to sit out on. We asked to be moved but were told that they were fully booked, even though various websites showed availability. Reception staff could have been a bit friendlier but they did deal with most of our requests promptly. The food at the hotel was good and the restaurant has beautiful views out to sea, it was however very expensive and then of course you must add 8% tax to the price. We asked the... more

Dear Customer, First I would like to thank you for choosing the Hotel Guadalmina Spa & Golf Resort to enjoy your vacation. I deeply regret that have had minor problems during your stay. It is true that we have very few rooms without private terrace, are only five of the 177 that hotel but the hotel was fully booked and we could not change rooms. I'm glad that your daughter will enjoy the birthday cake that we pastry him for it, I hope you spend a day really enjoyable. Thank you very much by the comments regarding our pool, all guests feel like you, is a unique swimming pool in the Costa del Sol to find right on the beach. The loungers on the beach and pool are free of charge for guests staying at the hotel, but you have to provide the room number in your reservation so you do not charge you to use it. I would ask you to return to the hotel so that we can reward you for your little problems. Thank you very much for your attention and understanding, Yours faithfully.

bait and switch - disgusting, awful, moldy, dirty rooms
beautiful property, rooms that hotel management should be ashamed of. terrible customer service. IF YOU ARE AMERICAN, AVOID, AVOID AVOID. when we brought the mold, smell, etc. to the hotel's attention, they blamed us americans for being so picky. Americans, they do not want you here and will purposely mistreat you. free internet did not work, spa was a joke, fitness center closed, golf was 15 minutes up the road - not the advertised ocean course adjacent to the property.

Dear Customer, First of all, I would like to thank you for choosing our establishment to enjoy your vacation. I deeply regret that this impression will take about our staff, the truth is they are great professionals always try to offer the best of everyone for our customers. Regarding the comment made about being American customer, I would like to inform you that this year has been more than 250 customers in the USA and we had no problem with them, on the other hand, they have expressed their satisfaction and happiness for the service received. We have WIFI available in public areas free for our customers, maybe if you tried to connect outside these areas, the connection that week was not good because we were changing the systems to improve the connection. Our gym is open Monday to Sunday from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm. I think that you went to the North Golf Course in Guadalmina because the South Golf Course, where is located in the hotel, we even have a private exit for our guests from hole number 11, which is next to the beach I would like to offer to return to our hotel so we can change the image that was our establishment. Thank you very much for your attention and comprehension. Yours sincerely.

Beautifull location, price/quality not that good
The location of this hotel is really beautifull. Direct at the beach and (almost) all the rooms have sea view. Our room was almost bigger than our own living room. The hotel is well taken care off. As well for the beautifull gardens. So far the positive things. The food is very expensive (EUR 15 for a hamburger) and the quality is average (touristic). If you go to this hotel, please do by car and have your lunch and diner somewhere else. There is a commercial center at a 5 min drive for lunch. Diner is good somewhere in Puerto Banus (10 min... more

Dear Client, First I would like to thank you for choosing our hotel to enjoy your holidays. I'm glad you liked overall the hotel and specially the location on the beach, overall of our clients are delighted for our place. Regarding the comment that makes the high prices of our restaurant, I would like to inform you that we are on the average of a 4-star hotel in Marbella. We can´t compare a bottle of water consumed in our hotel watching the wonderful view over the Mediterranean Sea with a bottle of water bought in a supermarket on the road. I would like to inform you that the average stay of our guests is 7 nights, so many of our clients do consider us a hotel for long stays. Finally I would like to invite you back to the hotel to enjoy a wonderful stay and we can change your final opinion. Thank you very much for your attention and understanding. Yours sincerely.

Nice location but definately not a 4 star
Hotel is in a good quiet location (not easy to find though) and rooms are spanish authentic, quite spacious but very dated and basic (don't expect any usual 4 star frills). Bathroom is ok, beds need upgrading and furniture is generally old/cheap looking. The reception foyer is basic with no business centre or concierge. Staff were generally polite except for the waiters who were mostly grumpy and unapproachable. I find this particularly annoying as it's a basic service requirement for a 4* hotel. The pool, beach, and terrace... more

Dear Customer, First I would like to thank you for choosing our hotel to enjoy your holidays. Thank you very much for the comments he made regarding the pool, our beach and the facilities in general. I would like to explain in detail what you don´t like. More than one month ago is no longer difficult to find the hotel since we have temporary signs until the works will be finished. We have changed the hotel beds in the rooms and we put new plasma screens in the room also. Sorry if you took a bad impression of our waiters, the truth is that they are very good professionals who have many years in the hotel and most customers are happy with their care. Our Sunday buffet, rich in tradition and well known in the city, not a 4 star hotel, I can assure you that it is better, in our category hotels you can´t enjoy with Iberian ham, fresh prawns, veal chops... With regard to the spa, the pool is not heated, is a dynamic pool specialized heathing treatments, not for swimming. Finally I would like to inform you that we have more than five television cameras in our garage for the safety of our customers. I would like to invite you to came back to the hotel to show you all the changes that we have done. Thank you very much for your attention and comprehension.

Big Safety and Security Problems!
I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights from 06July2010 with my wife. I had booked and confirmed one Superior Room and on arrival they tried to give me a very small room with the excuse that it had a (little) sea view. I did not accept that and after some discussion they agreed to give us a bigger room, which was much better and indeed a superior room. I had planned to stay for 12 nights but on the second night we were robbed in the room while sleeping during the night. The room was on the second floor and we could never suspect such an... more
Relax at the lovely Gudalmina Hotel
Just back from the Guadalmina Hotel Marbella, beautiful pool, beach and beach restaurant great place to relax, we had superior rooms which are more modern and bigger, the Spa was amazing and the golf for the boys was also geat, cant fault the service all in all a great recommendation, we booked through www.distinctivedestinations.co.uk one of the directors lived there for many years so he was great he knew every hotel they were really helpful and not pushy at all.
lovely but isolated
last minute booking. hired a car at the airport as the taxi was 75 euros and lucky we did as the hotel really is in the middle of no where. however what a great find! gorgeous resort, beautiful poolside, eclectic mix of people. fab breakfast. massive twin room. only a 10 minute taxi ride to porte banus where there are lots of bars and restaurants- but not cheap! downsides: check in was quick- no details given about the hotel or spa or where breakfast was, what time etc all the normal info. not rude but brief! we quickly worked... more
Isolated
The hotel itself is lovely, very clean and in a spectacular location right on the beach, our room was clean and comfortable with a great view. However it is quite isolated, it is in the middle of a golf resort and multi million pound houses hidden behind high walls, the area has little character. There is only one restuarant in walking distance however we found a fab restuarant "rosa" accross the main A7 oposite the turn off to the esate. We had dinner in the hotel once, the food was average and came at a high price. Breakfast was very... more
An amazing hotel
We booked the Hotel Guadalmina very last minute and got such a good deal all i can say is we were slightly dubious with what we might find.... What we did find was a beautiful hotel, right on the beach with a stunning pool area. The food was amazing and we had excellent service. The golf course was fantastic according to my partner (i dont play) My partner and i are extremely well travelled and we always stay in 4 or 5* hotels. We were not disappointed in any way and we cat wait to go back!!!!! The weather was... more
