hi there we travelled on the 16th august with firstchoice. the flight was exellent but resort not. the only good thing was the beach. rain for 12 days, food cold and reheated, dogs hanging aroud you when eating, sewege pipe leaking on the west side its been a nightmare since the day we got there. not happy at all and the noise from the industrial island in front of us was really bad and aircrafts every hour does your head in. airport is only around 2 miles away. would not reccomend this island at all you will be waisting your money. tips take a umbrella and rain coat

The hotel is ideally located near the beautiful sandy Marbella beach and right in the middle of the shops, restaurants and bars etc. We were spoilt for choice and had dinner in a different restaurant every night.



The hotel itself was clean, 24 hour reception, no pool unfortunately and Breakfast food was adequate. People were of a range of ages there in early June. Our room was spacious with a kitchenette.



There is a lot of sightseeing to do especially the old town and Peurto Banus just a taxi/bus ride away. (The buses do seem to turn up whenever they feel like it). Marbella and Peurto Banus is pricey to eat out etc. But you must try the Tapas! We arrived during a festival and there was a firework display on the beach and the locals were very friendly. Thank you Expedia for a lovely holiday!
