The location was excellent, from malaga airport its 5-10 minutes to the hotel. The hotel is right in the middle of town and is minutes from the beach. Alot of clubs, restuarants and bars minutes from the hotel and which was not noisey at night!
The rooms are VERY clean, but the maids do not speak much English. The air conditioning should be automatic instead of the card system.
I personally didn't enjoy the food, but they had a wide range of continental and international foods. Breakfast varied from toast to a full fried breakfast and fruit. Dinner was a variety from chips to curry to vegetables. Alot of space for sunbathing, relaxing around the pool. Daily and evening entertainment which was VERY entertaining and kept people that wanted to do ''get up and play'' amused. The mini disco for the children at night was entertaining, with a clown playing all your party disco songs, in English, Spanish and French.

Decent staff. Nice room. Great location. Spoiled by very noisy and at times, abusive guests and reception staff who were just not interested when complaint made (shrug of shoulders). All inclusive drinking caused problems - poolside became a no go area -largely went unchecked

Well worth £14 a day, B & B
Our room was fantastic, a corner one so nearly double the size of normal rooms. Huge balcony, too. Food was plentiful and good, if you couldn't find something you liked then you're too picky to be going abroad! All in all we had a great time, just a shame about the other noisy Brits who have no regard for others when getting back to their rooms at all hours! By the way, they have started building opposite the Flamingo [swimming pool side] so you may get noise from that for the next few months.
