I have to admit, I was sceptical about staying here after reading some reviews. However it was perfect for our four night stay. We travelled as a family with two young children. We had a room with a pool and sea view. We had a living room with two bedrooms, plenty of wardrobe space and a good size bathroom. Reception was very nice and welcoming. We went all inclusive and I cannot rate it highly enough. We had fresh fish, steak and lots of tasty options. If we were there longer we may have got bored but everything was tasty, fresh and well presented. The pool was very well maintained and the hotel is on the beach so you can pop to the beach then straight back to your room or lounger! Entertainment was great. My daughter went to the kids club which she loved and evening was good all round family entertainment. All the staff were so welcoming. The hotel was so clean. You can walk to the town of Nerja or get a bus from outside the hotel. It is so pretty, I highly recommend you visit during your stay. For families I would highly recommend this hotel.

The rooms are not modern but I wasn't expecting that so just an observation rather than criticism.

On the beach. Large pool. Clean. Friendly staff. Nice location, about 2km from Nerja centre.

Hotel did not book requested taxi service to or from the airport. Large breakfast buffet but little fresh food. A lot of heavily processed food items

Beach is a bit rough and could do with a bit of proper leveling. Pool was freezing so was not an option to use so a lovely empty pool all day.

We were not on full board so the options for lunch were very limited around the pool/bar area. The shower in the room is ancient and badly effected by different flows of extreme hot or cold.

We have been to Marinas six times now and hopefully that shows that we are happy with being there. We had halfboard, breakfast and dinner which is fine for us and we can choose what we would like to drink with the food. The winelist has been improved which we were happy about. Excellent breakfast and dinner with many different choices. Walking along the beach into Nerja city is a very nice walk. Very friendly personnell in the reception and also in the restaurant and bar. Cleaning personnell and technicians were also very helpful. The only thing to improve is the strength of the WiFi. To work I had to sit close to the reception.

The size of the apartment was great, and the hotel complex was right on the beach which was lovely. Breakfast was included in the cost, and there was a great choice from which to choose. I also had dinner there two evenings, and was pleasantly surprised. My apartment was on the top floor with great view of the sea and the sunset. The balcony was big and very comfortable. Having the top floor, meant that i could leave my window open so i could hear the waves also at night. Having a security safe was also great. The kitchen facilities for me was more than ample. The apartment was very roomy.

Sadly the bathroom and kitchen, though more than ample for my needs, were both tired and would benefit from an upgrade. There was no iron in the room, however the when I spoke to the staff, all that was required was to inform them when i needed it and it would be brought to the room. So again this would not have been an issue. There was an issue with the TV and shower and within minutes of reporting it to the desk staff they deployed someone to fix it. Great service

The views from the balcony were stunning! The staff is working very hard to keep this hotel running. They smile everytime they see you and they're doing what they can to make your stay pleasent.

Rooms are pleasant, but needs improvement. Some old furniture must be changed. TV is too small with few satellite international and local channels. Wi-Fi is almost non-existent, works just in the lobby. Every morning If you're not at 8:30 sharp at the breakfast you'll be staying at queue for about 10 - 15 minutes to enter the breakfast area which is very busy. At the swimming pool it's full of noise from the children. So I recommend staying at the beach. In the evenings every night they have a themed party until 11 - 11:30, so If you're not a party guy it's not for you because the noise is going through the entire hotel.

I had a fabulous Christmas at this hotel. The staff are exceptional, they could not do enough for me....they asked me about my room which was very dark & changed me to a room that received the sunshine in the morning. It made my holiday! The difference to me was so important. They offered to do this. The Christmas banquet....because that's what it was ,was superb! The staff put their hearts & Souls into making it special. Very memorable & the food was lovely. My apartment was fabulous, very comfortable. The food at mealtimes was so varied and creative. I loved my week/Christmas. The staff were very efficient and hard working & made you feel special and welcome, I applaud you all. The hotel is very well managed and right on the beach....it was gorgeous 😊 Thank you.

It's not the best hotel for children at Christmas. We had a 9yr old with us & she was so disappointed that she couldn't go into the indoor pool. I now understand that this was attached to the spa so I get it but she had nowhere to swim. It was just too cold outside. Also, just a note. I paid for half board yet I wasn't even allowed to have a drink at dinner....not even water! It had to be paid for. I thought this was mean. The staff very much kept to the rules laid down by hotel policy. They were very kind & considerate.One drink would be suffice....or even just a coffee ☕️? I understand this is a policy in some hotels.

Clean and pretty

The bathroom in our room(118) seems outdated. The shower has one grab bar and not a second one to hold getting out. Can’t hold onto the glass half door since it is on a hinge. The inside of the bathroom door needs painting. It has been patched. The allergens for foods are not consistently posted for all meals and I have seen none for the hot food section yesterday and breakfast and lunch today. I was delighted though with the Roads Scholar first night dinner and the alternate nut free salad and dessert I was given. Gracias!

A very nice Hotel . Clean , Room was excellent ,storage everywhere . Good facilities Coffee machine ok but used kettle more . Lovely views of mountain and sea 👍 Lots of washed up bamboo on beach near Hotel but I'm sure it'll get moved on sometime . The staff were lovely I wasn't totally into how close tables were during breakfast and dinner as we felt we were squished in but the food wads very enjoyable . Shop next door to Hotel plus small shop near Spa . Good spa too . Thought the pool opened late and closed early but it's early season still . Enjoyable Hotel with decent parking too . Entertainment was ok usual Bingo , Quiz , singer etc . Only 10 / 15 mins walk to Nerja but we took our car in . Bus stop outside Hotel too . Would stay again .👍

The room is a little dated but perfectly functional. The breakfast was very good. It is a short car drive from Nerja for restaurant options and Frigiliana, which is worth visiting.

Parking immediately outside the hotel is free, but if full (which it invariably was in the evening), you must access paid parking next door. The beach is not white/clean sand. It seemed quite dirty. The spa is extremely basic and not worth it (pool and jacuzzi were cold). The beds were made up with sheets and thin blanket. Would have preferred a duvet. I was cold and asked for extra blankets but was told there were none available. Also it seemed to inconvenience staff when I asked for 2 extra pillows. WIFI in the apartment was not great.
