I stayed here for four nights with 12 pals on a golfing holiday. The hotel itself is pretty much faultless. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because the 27 holes of golf, in three loops of nine, are probably too tough for the average club golfer and they were in the process of some makeover which... more

The most upscale choice for golf in the Sotogrande area. I was in the area inspecting hotels and courses for my epicurean golf travel business (CORK & TEE). We either played or visited all the courses in the area. The best in order are Valderamma, Sotogrande, The Reserve, Almenara and San Roque (OLD & NEW). Investment in the latter property... more

The Almenara is beautiful & is perfect if you love golf & lots of peace & quiet. However, do not bother if you don't have a car! The hotel is situated within the Sotogrande estate and to even leave the estate you need a car, it is not walking distance at all. The hotel is surrounded by lot of expensive... more

Stayed there on expense account in January 2006. Hotel was obviously not full so we got full attention of staff. Were driven on a electric mini car to our room with door directly on golf fairway. Room excellent with all necessary amenities. As we were not in "Executive" type of room. We had to pay EUR 20 for the indoor... more

We stayed for 2 weeks (booked through Golfbreaks) with a young baby (9 months) and after an initial problem when they refused to provide the suite we had paid for through our agent (2 days spent with a junior suite rather than a suite) we finally got what we had paid for. The commercial sales director visited our room personally... more

I am in the golf holiday business and the Almenara is my ideal of what a golf hotel should be. The rooms are a great size and the bathrooms are superb. breakfast is excellent and in my experience it is the only hotel which serves proper bacon on the coast - not that burnt skinny stuff but proper back bacon!... more

We stayed 3 nights at the Almenara for a short sun/golf break in Aug 05. Having read the reviews on the site i was a bit unsure about whether we had booked the right place but I was not disappointed. Yes the hotel is about 4km up the hill, inland from the sea but it is in a lovely spot... more

I stayed at this hotel in may 2005 and we had quite a bad time. The rooms in all fairness are perfectly fine, no problems there. But the hotel is miles from anywhere so you cannot just walk to a bar or restaurant. You have to drive for a good 15 minutes atleast. Which is fine if you just want... more

Just got back from a week long stay at the Almenara on the Costa del Sol. Really nice hotel. It has just re-opened after being closed by it's owner, NH Hotels, to be refurbished. Really nice... Each room in the hotel is it's own little building attached in rows like houses in the "White villages" of the area in Spain.... more
