My wife and I stayed around Easter at this hotel to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The hotel is far from perfect but overall we had a really nice stay. It was very positive that they gave us a room with a side sea view even though I had booked a normal room. We really appreciated this. The standard of the... More

If you just want a really relaxing,lazy holiday then this is a great place to choose. The hotel is large and well furnished and the entrance/reception area is impressive. Our room was large and fine for what we needed without being luxurious. The complex is build in a horse shoe shape looking out to sea, we visited in the Easter... More

I stayed here for 1 week from 13th April with my husband. We were looking for a relaxing holiday to recharge our batteries and that is exactly what we got. The hotel is spotless and staff are very friendly with nothing being too much bother. The hotel was not full but there were plenty of us beds and the area... More

We had a nice stay in Iberostar Malaga back in October 2012, a very well maintained and clean hotel. Room is nicely furnished, spacious & clean and I believe each of them has balcony. We had standard room near the lounge and apparently every night they're having entertainment/show for hotel guests. If you normally sleep after 11PM, this won't be... More

This is a really well maintained property, thoughtfully laid out, with nice outdoor pool area. staff are great, particularly with kids. generously sized and well-appointed rooms. unfortunately the wi-fi is provided by a third party and so costs extra, also cumbersome to set up and a nightmare to re-establish if something goes wrong. location is good per se, directly on...

Stayed recently with friends. The rooms were clean and well maintained we were in the block to the front of the hotel. We travelled as a group of 6 and we were by far the youngest residents by a few years (20 to be precise) but that didn't bother us as we were looking for a relaxing break. The food... More

Spent 3 nights on a long weekend with 5 friends for our 40th birthdays. From start to finish it was faultless. We stayed in the apartments, although we were all inclusive and found them very spacious with lovely big balconies. Food was fantastic with great choices for all ages. Entertainment, although we were low season was very entertaining and seemed... More

Stayed for 10 nights, 09-19/11/12. Overall, an enjoyable stay, but some minor changes would have made it an excellent one. The food quality, particularly in the evening, was disappointing. Starters and desserts were varied and tasty, however, the cooked main dishes were bland and tasteless, with the pizza / pasta section very disappointing. The cooked dishes at breakfast were better,... More
