“Basic but good value”

Apartments Buensol

11 Apr 2008

I stayed at the Buensol apartments for a few days at the beginning of April and after reading a few contradictory reviews before I booked, I thought I should give my view.
The apartments are small and basic but good value for money. I paid under £21 per night and I was satisfied with the accommodation. I didn't see any of the problems described in some reviews, the fire escapes reached down to ground level, the apartment was very clean, the towels were a bit thin but ok, I didn't notice any problems with noise and the staff were helpful when I asked questions at reception. Also one very important point - the bed in my apartment was comfortable.
I requested an apartment on floor 4 after reading the reviews and I got one with a sea view (apartments 401 to 408 (501 to 508 etc) face the sea and 409 to 416 overlook the pool.
There is a good sized balcony with the sea view apartments and the sun was on the balcony from sunrise at 08:00 am until about 2:00 pm. The balcony has a nice view of the sea and part of the promenade which runs parallel with the beach (see photos).
I visited a few bars and restaurants in the area and my favorites were the Ivy Restaurant and a small bar on the side street next to the apartments called the Blarney Inn where there is a warm welcome.
The taxi fare was 22 Euros from the airport and 20 Euros back which I thought was expensive for a short journey.
Overall, I had a great time, the apartments were fine, the sky was cloudless every day and the temperature was above 20 degrees.

“It was good enough”

Apartments Buensol

10 Apr 2008

Buensol Apartment was a good apartment and me and my family enjoyed it. Weather wasn't too good but it was good too just relax and put my feet up. Neighbours next door were very noisy so it was difficult to get a good sleep at night. The location the apartments was situated in was brilliant because the beach was at your doorstep and there was plenty of bars and restaurants. I would recommend the Mirage bar as my daughter Holly loved the Chicken Nuggets and Chips. The Buensol never had a restaurant at lunchtime so it would have been better if it did. Because the season had just started up again with all the holiday makers there was no entertainment and it was a little bit boring at night. Otherwise the Buensol is a great Apartment for people all ages and a great location.

“Buensol is not for those looking for luxury, but is great for children and older”

Apartments Buensol

5 Apr 2008

This is a cheap and basic place, but the situation close to beach and the marina is excellent. We paid £200 pound for a 2 bedroom apartment at Easter and divided by 4 it was unbelievable. The Irish bar next door was very welcoming and together we had a fantastic time.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — It is a minute from the beach, close to the marina and there are miles of promenade both ways with lovely bars and restaurants to suit every taste.
    • Disliked — It is very basic, the towels were a laugh if you can see the funny side and it could do with a refurb, However, if it was upgraded we would have paid a lot more. In January we paid £25 each for a 5 day stay.

We have just returned with all the family and have had a great time.6adults&5 kids.We had 3apts which cost £115each for the week.Cant be bad.The Buensol apts.are not the most luxurious but the situation and the area is great.We eat out all the time but use the gas cooker to boil water in morning for coffee.Ana on reception is lovely.We stay at the Buensol all the time and have never had a bad experienca yet.Cracking Spanish bar around the corner called Champi.Victoria cooks the most tasty soups and meals.Extremely welcoming bar.Benalmadena Marina is only 5mins walk&Carihuela is only 10mins walk.The apts are surrounded by bars and restaurants,Spanish,British,Irish,so you have great choice where you choose to eat&drink.There is even a chip shop for anyone who fancies PukkaPies&Battered sausage!

“Cheap n dirty”

Apartments Buensol

8 Jan 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

Basic can also be clean- but not at the Buensol.We spent holiday funds (as did neighbours )on cleaning materials! I dropped t- shirts when unpacking- and they got filthy! The funny smell was such that we put fabric conditioner in the sinks and toilet bowl to mask it ! Tissue paper was stuffed all around windows as there were gaps and windows rattled! Towels were provided- if asked for - grudgingly- which were so thin you could see through them! Silver fish were in the drawers- so clothes after that were kept in the suitcase! New years Eve party got out of hand and continued until police arrived at 7.20am- the place looked trashed,and took 3 - 4 days to clear up glass, and all the objects thrown in the pool.Hotel reception just shrugged their shoulders to the army of complaints.
Cheap n uncheerful.
