Beach clubs in Marbella: Discover the most outstanding options

Home a few days after an amazing stay at this hotel. From the moment we walked in till we left the staff were fantastic and I mean all the staff. We had one of the penthouse rooms which was great and would recommend it to everyone. We also were all inclusive the food in the buffet restaurant was great and the snack bar was fab too.We wven had massages that where brilliant and the beach club was super we went there twice. Infact we enjoyed it that much we are booked for next year again.

Very nice and clean ! Excellent location.

My experience at this hotel was absolutely terrible, mainly because of Adriana and the reception manager. I was traveling with my child, and the reception staff refused to let us check in because my daughter’s age in their system was slightly different from the age on her passport. She is a child, and this has never been an issue at any hotel I’ve stayed at before. Instead of handling the situation professionally, Adriana and the reception manager were rude, dismissive, and completely unwilling to help. They embarrassed me in front of other guests and forced me to pay an extra €200 per night. When I said I would rather cancel my stay and asked for my money back so I could book another hotel, they refused. I was even told, “If you don’t like it, leave the hotel.” That is one of the most disrespectful things I’ve ever heard from hotel staff. As if that wasn’t enough, the room was full of mosquitoes, and the cleanliness was far below the standard expected from this hotel. This was one of the worst customer service experiences I’ve ever had. Adriana and the reception manager made what should have been a pleasant family trip incredibly stressful and humiliating. I would never stay here again and would strongly advise others to avoid this hotel.

Great hotel, very nice friendly staff, rooms were very spacious and very clean, pool temperature was nice, lunch ( all inclusive) on the patio was very good, pick off the menu, great choices. Nice to have a laugh carte and not have a buffet at lunch. Dinner was good, something for everyone, not the biggest selection but good enough. Staff around the pool were very friendly. Location was ok, 15-20min gentle walk into Puerto Banus. Cocktails poolside were very good, in plastic glasses of course for safety, and decent plastic glasses. Gym small but adequate.

We stayed at Iberostar Selection Marbella Coral Beach for a girls weekend and had a really lovely experience.||The location was ideal for us, as it is close to both Puente Romano and Puerto Banus. the room was quite big so it was really comfortable, and all the staff we met were soo friendly and helpful.||Breakfast was probably our favourite part of the stay. There was a lot to choose from, the fresh avocados were amazing, and we also really appreciated the late breakfast option after going out the night before hehe :)||Overall, we had a great stay and would happily come back :))

Having read so many positive reviews before booking our stay at Iberostar Selection Marbella Coral Beach, my expectations were incredibly high. I am thrilled to say that the hotel not only met them but managed to exceed them in every possible way! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the wonderfully kind and attentive staff. The cleanliness throughout the entire property is flawless and deserves a special mention. Another highlight for us was the food, as the quality and variety at both breakfast and dinner were absolutely outstanding. As a delightful bonus, we loved the resident turtles in the enclosure between the rooms, which was such a unique and charming touch! If there is one area where the hotel could improve, it is enforcing restaurant etiquette during dinner. The hotel has a dress code, yet we witnessed guests sitting down for dinner in wet swimwear and flip-flops. Additionally, some guests were loudly watching videos on their phones without headphones, disrupting the lovely ambiance, and the staff unfortunately did not intervene. I highly recommend that the team gently reminds guests to respect the rules and the comfort of others. However, despite this minor issue, it would be unfair to deduct any points because the overall quality, hospitality, and atmosphere are undeniable. This hotel hands down deserves a full 5-star rating and we will definitely be back!

We stayed for 7 nights as a family and, unfortunately, left disappointed. Due to a booking error, we had to amend our reservation on arrival and ended up paying over £5,100 for our stay. While I completely understand paying more for additional guests, I was surprised that this price was for a standard double room rather than a junior suite or a more spacious family room. At this price point, we expected a truly premium experience. Sadly, the service and facilities didn’t reflect the amount we paid. Check-in was stressful, and although our luggage was taken to our room after check-in, there was no assistance from the taxi to reception despite my husband having a broken foot. The pool area and sun loungers were often not as clean as expected, the filtered water stations tasted unpleasant enough that we bought bottled water from the supermarket opposite, and some of the daytime bar staff came across as unfriendly. In contrast, the younger members of staff were excellent, friendly and a real credit to the hotel. As a family, we were also surprised by the lack of activities for children during our stay. Overall, this isn’t a terrible hotel, but it simply didn’t deliver the level of service, comfort or attention to detail that we expected for a holiday costing over £5,100. There are many positives, particularly the younger staff, but unfortunately the overall experience did not justify the price we paid.

Absolutely terrible experience at the Lil Baby concert tonight. The waiters were aggressively demanding an additional 10% tip on top of the bill and putting customers under pressure to pay it. ( theres is a 10% included anyway but they added even another 10% on top ) When people refused, security was allegedly called over to intimidate them. This felt like a pure scam rather than hospitality. The waiter with the long beard was especially rude, arrogant, and unprofessional throughout the evening. Customer service was completely unacceptable. This thief needs to be stopped! Also, the rating of this venue seems highly questionable. People are being offered free alcohol in exchange for positive reviews, which makes the overall score very misleading. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Be careful when paying your bill and don’t be fooled by the rating. Very disappointing experience.

I had a great experience at this beach club. The location is beautiful, with relaxing atmosphere that makes it easy to spend the whole day there. The staff were welcoming, attentive, and always happy to help. The food and drinks were fresh, well-presented, and reasonably priced for the quality. The sunbeds were comfortable, the facilities were clean, and the music created the perfect vibe it’s an excellent place to relax, enjoy good food and drinks, and spend time by the beach. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun yet peaceful beach club experience, and I’ll be coming back on my next visit.

Had such a great day at NAÔ Beach Club! The vibe was amazing, the music was great, and the whole place had such a fun atmosphere. The staff were really friendly and looked after us all day. The food and cocktails were lovely, and everything came out quickly. It’s the perfect spot to chill by the pool, enjoy the sunshine, and have a good time with friends. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip would 100% come back! ☀️🍹🎶

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What an incredible day at NAO Beach Club! Everything exceeded our expectations. The venue is absolutely stunning, the atmosphere is vibrant, and the DJs kept the energy going all day. It was the perfect mix of luxury, relaxation, and fun. The staff were welcoming, professional, and attentive, making sure we were looked after from start to finish. The food was fresh and delicious, and the cocktails were some of the best we’ve had in Marbella. If you’re looking for a beach club with amazing vibes, excellent service, and a memorable experience, NAO Beach Club is the place to be. We had an unforgettable day and can’t wait to visit again!

Nao beach club was my favorite part of our trip! The place had an amazing atmosphere,, with a really chilled vibe, great music, the staff were super friendly and no ask was too much. The food and drinks were delicious, and well priced. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a fun beach club with great service and a lovely atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back!

An absolutely incredible experience! 🦋The atmosphere is amazing, the music is fantastic, and the vibe is exactly what you would expect from Marbella. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive throughout the day, and the service was impeccable. The food and cocktails were delicious, and the pool area was beautifully maintained—perfect for relaxing or having fun with friends. Without a doubt, one of the best pool clubs in Marbella. I can’t wait to come back! Highly recommended!🧚🏻‍♂️

We had a fabulous 3 night stay at the Hard Rock Hotel Marbella. The staff on reception were always really helpful and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Ignore the people complaining about having to pay a deposit when you arrive, this is only if you want to charge items to your room. If you are happy to pay for drinks etc as you have them, you do not need to pay anything extra.Our room was spotlessly clean and the complimentary cans of water were a welcome touch. The rooms are well soundproofed and we could not hear any of the outside noise.The two pool areas are fantastic, we spent each day around the main pool area (as the music is louder there and it has a more lively vibe). The staff around the pool were brilliant and nothing was too much trouble. The rooftop pool is also lovely, it has a more chilled and laid back atmosphere.The buffet breakfast was excellent, there was so much choice and everything was fresh.We will definitely recommend this hotel and can’t wait for our next visit

We had a nice stay, but the highlight of our experience was definitely Bouchta, the chef at the dinner buffet. He was always smiling, genuinely kind and incredibly positive. You could see how much he cared about every guest, always doing his best to accommodate requests and going the extra mile to make everyone happy. His passion and warm attitude truly represent what hospitality is all about. Thank you, Bouchta!

I had an incredible experience at the Hard Rock Hotel event on the 14th of June with Loco Bongo. I went with my girls and we booked the VIP big roof sunbed next to the pool and from start to finish everything was amazing. We were warmly welcomed at the entrance by the manager and personally escorted to our area, which immediately set the tone for a luxury experience. The setup was beautiful, with bottle service presented in a stunning floating display that made everything feel extra special. The food and drinks were great nachos, burgers, fries, cocktails, beers, and mojitos, gin and tonic all constantly refreshed and served quickly by attentive staff. The entertainment was next level, with performers coming right to our sunbed, interacting with us, and even doing a mini performance just for us, which made the night feel so personal and unforgettable. Overall, the service was outstanding and the whole experience was luxury, fun, and pure vibes. Definitely one of the best nights I’ve had – I’ll 100% be back. 🫶🏾

I loved everything about this hotel. The staff were excellent, the balcony views were beautiful, and there was visible security throughout the property. However, I did notice sex workers in the lobby. They seemed to enter through the beach access with guests and would wait near the elevators. While this may not be entirely under the hotel’s control, it was something I noticed during my stay. The location is not that close to puerto banus as it seemed via the map, it as 15-20mins walking I also wasn’t a fan of the wristband system. I stayed for four nights, so I had to shower and tan with the wristband on the entire time. As a Muslim, it also made performing wudu (ablution) less convenient. Another issue was that the wristband didn’t always work on the first try. From both a security and convenience standpoint, I don’t think it’s the best solution. If someone were following you, needing to stop and repeatedly scan the wristband before the door unlocked could be frustrating and potentially unsafe. Traditional key cards would be a more reliable and efficient option.

I want to especially outline the restaurant service and stuff. They are absolutely amazing people! Always polite, respectful, friendly and helpful. They food is just amazing as well, Chef Bouchta is making stunning food, especially grilled sea bass and meant, he’s always helping with everything there and is being highly professional. I’m absolutely grateful for the experience at the restaurant every time I come for dinner or breakfast. Those amazing professionals just took my heart and soul!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

What an amazing hotel! On arrival we were greeted by super friendly staff and were checked in by Tyler who was absolutely superb. He explained all of the amenities in the hotel and offered to book reservations for us for anything we wanted to do. The hotel itself is luxurious and classy, food and drinks all excellent. The pool is stunning and we thoroughly enjoyed the DJ’s playing around the pool in the afternoons. No sunbed wars, just very chilled and relaxed atmosphere. Rooms are beautiful with high quality bedding and toiletries, we had a fabulous view over both pools. Literally cannot fault any aspect of the hotel. The staff are all fun and friendly and cannot do enough for you, our room was cleaned every day by very smiley cleaners! We even had a bottle of bubbly waiting for us in our room as we were celebrating our anniversary. We were made to feel special for the whole visit and can’t recommend this amazing hotel enough. Special thanks to Tyler for the welcome he gave us and the top notch service. We will definitely be back. 11/10

A wonderful holiday at this gorgeous hotel. We had a large beautiful suite (V31) in a traditional Spanish style with all the mod cons which was on the top floor of this block in a quiet location but within easy reach of both the vibrant Plaza with its wide range of excellent restaurants that came alive at night and the relaxing beach area with its beach club facilities pool and range of restaurants|We particularly liked the restaurant offering at the beach. Having a small version of the main Nobu restaurant there in a lovely outdoor setting shaded from the sun by a pergola of bio diverse plants with an integrated mist system to keep us cool when required made for a very special experience. |I have had the opportunity to stay at some of the best hotel chains in the world including the One and Only, Mandarin Oriental, Four Seasons, Oberoi Eden Rock etc and this hotel without a doubt had the best breakfast offering I have ever experienced. It was unbelievable and included and if you have kids it included a chocolate fountain!|The staff at the hotel went out of their way to make the holiday enjoyable and that included everyone from the restaurant and spa staff to the reception and concierge staff. We even liked the thoughtful touch of a little something left for my wife on her birthday even though we had not told them about it. |Very much look forward to coming back soon.

Let me start this with saying this is my first time leaving a bad review, as usually, I am very understandable. Very disappointing experience. At $1700 per night per room, the quality felt more like a $100-a-night hotel. The room was in poor condition, the bathrooms had mold, water in the shower would not drain and the overall property felt old and extremely poorly maintained. The swimming pool was dirty, and the beach setup was another huge disappointment, not something I would expect at a five star resort. After seeing the condition of the hotel, we decided to cut our vacation short and leave early.This hotel is nowhere near worth the price.

Classic in Marbella. All you need for ful relaxation!

Beautiful resort with fantastic service but very disappointed that the front pool by the beach now has a minimum spend of €200 per bed, per day for residents!! Only free access to the two remaining pools and not enough beds for the whole resort and the Airbnb’s!!||||Never stayed in such a premium hotel where you have a minimum spend to use their main pool and hardly any beds if you do want to pay!||||Fully understand if people want to come that aren’t staying they must pay, unfortunately not catering for families any more and after many happy years we won’t be coming again!

Puente Romano is one of my favourite hotels I’ve ever stayed in, and one I still think about long after leaving.||The breakfasts are incredible—especially at La Petite Maison, where you can enjoy amazing food with beautiful sea views. The whole hotel is surrounded by lush greenery, so it feels more like staying in tropical gardens than in the middle of Marbella.||I also love that some of Marbella’s best restaurants are right here in the hotel, so every evening can be a completely different experience. Whether you feel like relaxing at the spa, working out in the gym, or playing tennis or padel, there’s always something to do.||What really makes it all come together is the fantastic service. Everyone is so welcoming and attentive, making every stay feel effortless and special.||I can’t recommend Puente Romano enough—it’s a place I’ll happily return to again and again.

Puente Romano is the place to be in Marbella when you are looking to be in the heart of the buzz. With it’s spacious garden and large rooms, this resort makes you feel intimate as though you live in an traditional luxurious Andalusian village. The bedrooms are renovated and have very comfortable facilities. The pools are themed (Coya, Nobu pool and more) There is wonderful staff that is always handy to help. The resort has the coolest gym and spa from six senses. The tennis club and kids club is their unique value too! Overall a memorable stay to have a staycation or discover Marbella.

I was impressed by this amazing Hotel and this concept. After working so hard tge last weeks, I needed hideaway for me. And I find it, right when I entered the Hotel. Beautiful Design, friendly stuff, exquisite Restaurants amd a stylish club. It was the opening from Coya Suite, which is a incredible concept. I will come for sure again.

It was a wonderful stay at the Marbella club hotel. The service was exceptionally welcoming, and we loved the beautiful interior design and atmosphere. We especially appreciated the large number of swimming pools, with separate areas for both adults and children. Every guest can find something comfortable and enjoyable here. The restaurants on the property were excellent, both for lunch and dinner, and the breakfasts were outstanding. We will definitely return to this hotel on our next visit.

I’ve been coming to Marbella Club for years, and I’ve always loved the unique atmosphere that made it feel like a true home away from home. Unfortunately, during this stay, that feeling was missing. While the hotel remains beautiful, I found the staff to be overly intrusive. We were repeatedly interrupted for minor issues and unnecessary check-ins, which made it difficult to relax and enjoy our privacy. Instead of feeling looked after, we felt constantly disturbed. What made Marbella Club so special in the past was its effortless, discreet service—you felt genuinely at home. Sadly, that magic seems to have faded. It’s still a wonderful property, but it no longer feels like the Marbella Club I remember. I sincerely hope the management brings back the understated hospitality and sense of comfort that made this hotel truly exceptional.

Beautiful hotel. Only complaint is that hotel guests do not have priority. If you book, El Patio’s outside dining may not be available. If you are going for the full experience, I would call ahead before booking as their amenities cannot accommodate all hotel guests.

Wow. This hotel is 11/10. It’s hard to fault anything about this hotel. It’s expensive, but it’s worth every Euro! The Restaurants are all incredible, the Pools are beautiful, especially the chilled adults only garden pool. The staff are fabulous, attentive and friendly. The rooms are lovely, modern touches in old classic Spanish style low rise buildings spread throughout the vast hotel property. We stayed in a garden view suite The gardens are beautiful.||This is a relaxing and incredible slice of paradise in a busy a vibrant part of Marbella. ||One of, if not the best hotel we have ever stayed at.

I have been coming to Marbella Club Hotel every year, and it has always been one of my favorite places to stay. Unfortunately, this year’s visit was by far the worst experience I’ve ever had here. The most disappointing part of my stay was the treatment we received at El Patio. A staff member named Sofia was extremely disrespectful and unprofessional. Despite having a confirmed reservation, we were not seated, and the situation was handled very poorly. What made the experience even more frustrating was that the manager did nothing to resolve the issue. As loyal guests who have chosen Marbella Club year after year, I expected much better customer service and a genuine effort to help. It’s very disappointing to see such a decline in hospitality at a hotel that has always been known for its exceptional service. I sincerely hope the management takes this feedback seriously, as this experience has completely changed my impression of the hotel.

This is by far the best hotel in Marbella. The heritage of this Andalusian estate from the Prince Alfonso and its renovations are impeccable. The staff is very kind and attentive, always on time and very polite. Their amenities are impressive from their lush gardens to their orto. The restaurants are succulent and the most impressive is their beach club pontoon. They also have a mesmerising thalasso spa that is open from 8 am to 8 pm. I have never had such a good breakfast buffet with healthy options and their signature jamón ibérico. Truly a magical stay especially for families as they have a beautiful kids club. The highlight is their finca ana a special place for in house guests only to relax and unwind along with their holistic studio. The rooms are spacious, elegantly decorated and with great bedding that is very comfortable.

I’m sure that, in its heyday, Marbella Club was a truly beautiful and distinguished property. Sadly, our experience felt more like style over substance.||For anyone looking for an elegant, tranquil and genuinely discerning hotel, this may not be the right choice. Breakfast was consistently hectic and chaotic, with the terrace struggling to accommodate guests when the hotel was at full occupancy. We appreciate that the outdoor setting and surrounding nature mean birds can occasionally make a mess. However, being shown to a table covered in bird faeces, despite paying approximately £3,000 per night, was unacceptable. Even after we highlighted it to staff, no meaningful effort was made to clean the table properly or replace the linen.||The food across the property was generally good, and the pool staff were undeniably attentive. However, as the stay progressed, we found ourselves continually lowering our expectations.||There was very little sense of personalised service. Rather than feeling valued as individual guests, the experience felt transactional, as though the focus was simply to move guests through as efficiently and profitably as possible.||The rooms are also in need of refurbishment. On arrival, we were allocated a room below the category we had booked and paid for. Reception initially tried to explain that room categories were based on size rather than the photographs displayed online. After I produced our reservation correspondence and demonstrated that the room was incorrect, the hotel eventually acknowledged the mistake. We then waited approximately three hours while the correct room was prepared.||Marbella Club may appeal to those looking for an Instagramable backdrop where they can showcase their latest luxury purchases, pay a premium and move on. However, beneath the image, we found the hotel lacking the understated elegance, refinement and genuine hospitality its reputation suggests.||The sense of old-world class now feels more like a memory of a bygone era than the reality of the current guest experience.

Gorgeous hotel that lived up to all expectations. Exceptional staff with great attention to detail. Clean, quiet, and modern rooms. Amazing gym with stunning views. Beautiful pool area and just a few steps to the beach and everything to experience on the boardwalk. And good food on top of all that. Highly recommend this lovely hotel and will return!

Amazing hotel, clean, remodeled, perfect location, nice staff. Perfect!

We spent a week at the hotel in May this year. The location is super, close to Orange Square and Marbella shops. The pool is heated and staff at the pool were great.|Our room had a sea front view and was satisfactory.|Breakfast was good and staff helpful and courteous. |The only disappointment is the main restaurant menu. It was disappointing not just for myself as a vegetarian but also for my husband who is not. The pasta dish was more than al dente it was chewy, it came with what can only be described as a balloon of buretto cheese which when cut into became a milky mess over the pasta. I opted a few nights for the veggie burger which was good. There was simply lack of choice. There was an excellent waitress name Roxanna, very professional, we always hoped for her to serve our table. The other staff in the restaurant were okay but a bit hit and miss at times.|We dined at the beach restaurant which I found underwhelming and very busy.|Otherwise, this is a very good hotel and I will definitely be returning soon.

Absolutely wonderful property. We enjoyed a relaxing week in a seafront room. The “selected” option worked very well for us and offers a quiet area for breakfast with excellent service. Other perks with this option include a lounge (little sandwiches and desserts, snacks, and even drinks and fresh juices), and entry to the very relaxing therapy pool with jets and cascading spouts. Our room had a unique design, with a shower and toilet cubicle to one side of the entry, and double sinks and a soaking tub on the other side. Beyond was a small bedroom and beautiful balcony. There are many room categories available, including suites with lounge areas, or those with a jetted tub on the balcony. Keep in mind the resort has a rather small footprint, and is family friendly, so there could be some noise from the pool below in seafront room category. The tradeoff is delightful views. We loved the location of the hotel, with direct access to a promenade lined with restaurants. It’s also a few minutes walk to the charming old town. We would not hesitate to recommend this world class hotel. Heartfelt thanks to the outstanding staff, particularly our breakfast hosts and servers. We hope to see your smiling faces again!

Was here celebrating a special occasion with my wife. They gave us a room that was overlooking what appeared to be a war torn building, neighboring the resort with no sunlight. Forcing us to pay more money to change the room. They gave us an option of a ” full sea view” which was anything but that (see picture). They charged us an arm and a leg to upgrade and didn’t deliver on what they said it would be. Then our room was located side-by-side by the staff equipment room, which had the door clacking at all times which made it difficult for us to sleep. When room service started in the morning there was so much noise which made it impossible to sleep in. The power went out in our room, which took a long time to fix. The concierge felt like they were doing us a favor with every thing that we asked and actually messed up one of our reservations in the process of adjusting it Everything revolves around money in this hotel. Even if you want to rent a bike, they charge you €25 a day. Want to use the indoor pool? That’s a charge. Breakfast in the morning was great though.

Top-Notch Property and Great Staff Recovery, But Lacks Financial Transparency ​I am giving this hotel 5 stars because the room was amazing, the view was breathtaking, and when we experienced two issues, the management handled it beautifully and compensated us like a true luxury establishment. ​My only serious critique is regarding their half-board upgrade. Charging guests €150-€200 for an upgrade, only to find out it covers a mere €50 per person at the venue, is highly misleading. In their restaurants, if you order a standard dinner consisting of a starter, a main course, a dessert, a glass of wine, and a soft drink, the bill easily reaches around €200 per person. A high-end hotel should not play these hidden-fee games; it ruins the premium experience. I highly recommend the hotel, but strongly advise against taking the half-board package until management corrects this.

I’ve been fortunate to travel extensively and stay in many beautiful hotels, and I can confidently say this is one of the best I’ve ever experienced. From the moment you arrive, the service is exceptional. The team is genuinely warm, attentive, and welcoming, which sets the tone for the entire stay. The location is unbeatable, with everything conveniently within walking distance. The pool and beach areas are stunning and incredibly relaxing, especially the sunbeds by the water. It’s the perfect place to unwind and switch off. Breakfast is excellent, with a wide variety of options and beautiful views, and the decor throughout the hotel is elegant and thoughtfully designed. Lounge access was a great addition, and having snacks and drinks available during the day made the experience even more enjoyable. The room was quiet, comfortable, and well designed, with a beautiful bathroom. One of the highlights was falling asleep to the sound of the waves. At one point, one of us even chose to sleep on the balcony just to fully enjoy it. This is a place where you can truly disconnect and relax. I’m already looking forward to coming back. Thank you for such an incredible stay. Highly recommended. Don’t hesitate to book.

Very nice and easy walking. Beautiful scenery, you can take a long walk. Many different sort of flowers.

The beach is the best one we have found near Marbella/Estepona. To the West of the stone jetty is clothing optional but there weren’t many nudists around when we visited (stay East of the jetty to avoid altogether). Parking is easy up to about 10:30am but beware the self appointed car park organisers who cause chaos and expect to be tipped for it (just point blank refuse if, like me, you think the local council police should be doing something to stop them)

The most beautiful beach, very peaceful and breathtaking views! ☀️

Very nice beach and dunas area to walk around.

Parking is close by. You can walk by the wooden footbridge. There is an old tower which you can spot at the beginning. Nice descent to the sandy beach. In the sunny days, water is crystal clear. In general, it is a great area for walking.

We had an amazing experience at Mogli Beach Club! The atmosphere was beautiful, the food and drinks were excellent, and the service truly made our visit special. A huge thank you to Elena Aragon, Elena Torija, Sall, and Edu for taking such great care of us. They were all incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. Their professionalism and positive attitude made us feel so welcome. I highly recommend Mogli Beach Club and can’t wait to come back. Thank you for an unforgettable day!🫶🏼

Had the best girls day at Mogli Marbella 🌴☀️ Amazing vibe, beautiful pool club, great music and perfect atmosphere all day long. Everything was absolutely perfect, and a special thank you to Elena Aragon from the staff for being so kind and attentive ❤️ Truly one of the best beach club experiences in Marbella. Can’t wait to come back ✨🍾

Amazing place, the service is impressive. It genuinely Makes you feel like a princess at some point. Everything tastes good too. And Mariana is perfect. Highly recommend.

The atmosphere was amazing. Elena was really kind and made us feel special the whole day. The drinks and food were incredible. A 10/10 experience, def recommend

Alll the staff are lovely and welcoming. Recommend getting a bed on the day if possible! The bouncers on the door today were so friendly! Sushi was so tasty and so was the mugli house punch! And Jose and Alberto were soo good with us.

Isabel from guest services was just totally amazing and made our stay at this hotel just so perfect. She was so professional and has the ability to really connect with us as customers and made us feel important. We can’t thank her enough and I hope management appreciate her and the values she adds to this hotel. We wish her the very best in her career and future ! ❤️❤️

We went for a mini-break during which my husband celebrated a birthday, “the best ever”, he declared (and he has had more than 80!) This was mostly due to the excellence of the Don Pepe Hotel (slightly enhanced by perfect weather). In every area the hotel was superb, the very comfortable room, the superb breakfast buffet which provided a wide choice of meats, cheeses, fruits plus individually cooked items, the wide choice of restaurants for lunch and dinner, but above all the friendly, high quality of service. The staff in every department, without exception, were happy to go above and beyond to ensure our total satisfaction. We are left with a lovely memory, thanks to all especially the staff of the Erre restaurant.

Stunning setting and phenomenal service – both combined to make this a dream hotel for us. We were celebrating and are much indebted to Francisco for his kindness and professionalism and for going out of his way to help us . Francisco is a real ambassador for the Gran Melia . – this is our first stay at Melia and because of Francisco and the wider team we will definitely make Melia our first choice when looking for a hotel. Thank you Francisco. All the staff we met were lovely . A big shout out to the breakfast team you were magnificent – pleasant and helpful despite busy service . We loved Lucia’s smile and warmth, Yvonne’s welcomes, and the gentlemen and ladies who served us were amazing. The young man who looks after the water and room refreshments was so friendly and chatty and our housekeeping and evening service ladies were wonderful. The food was of a high standard at breakfast and at Bardot and the pool. We also enjoyed a meal at China Crown and the ambience at buzzy Cappuccino. The pool concierges were great always there to sort a sunbed or bring a drink or snack. Our stay was pure bliss and we really hope we can return and enjoy the reinvented Don Pepe and in the meantime sample a few other locations with Melia. Thank you you made us very happy

We stayed three nights to celebrate our Golden Wedding Anniversary. The staff were all amazing and looked after us so well. We were upgraded to a Royal Suite and given champagne and strawberries. All lovely touches to make us feel special. ||The pool area was great and lovely views over the sea. Stewards look after you very well.||We are breakfast in the Red Room and also some snacks at lunchtime. ||The first night we ate in Erree, good food and great service. The third night in the Japanese restaurant – again wonderful food. We could walk into Marbella along the boardwalk. ||We look forward to returning when the refurbishment has been completed. ||Thank you for making our stay so memorable.

From the moment we arrived back at Don Pepe we felt ‘back at home.’ Lovely warm welcome and speedy check in to a Red Level Room. Beautiful sea view room – which was serviced daily by the charming room team. All the staff are amazing and go out of their way to make sure you are enjoying your stay. The beautiful grounds help you to relax between meals. Hopefully the ‘Breakfast Room’ will return once the hotel has been refurbished. Can’t wait to return in 2027

Wonderful holiday. The Red Level team were so welcoming as always. Lovely to see the team again and catch up with Louise.||The breakfast team provided a wonderful buffet especially tasty omelettes. ||Excellent friendly service from arrival to departure. We wish the team all the best and we hope the renovations will not change the wonderful gardens or reception.||Thanks from the Murray family

Location is the best and therefore fabulous views all over the coast. Gardens are beautiful as is the lobby bar and terrace Red Level rooms are spacious ,function well with balconies to the sea. Housekeeping is very good All the staff here are some of the best you will ever come across. Charming, helpful professional…they make this hotel what it is…a lovely place to stay We wish them well with their refurbishment plans and I know that most guests will return!

We had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The staff was friendly, the food was delicious, and everything was clean and well organized. A special thank you to Francisco for his excellent service—he was kind, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this hotel!

This hotel is gorgeous! We stayed for a week and loved every minute. The rooms are really big and beautifully done, very modern and clean. Food was great at breakfast and would recommend the restaurant as well. Great location, there’s a supermarket just 2 minutes away and it’s about a 5 minute walk to the port and all the action. Highly recommend will definitely be returning. Special mentions to Viktor and Francisco for the hospitality

Me and my best friend had an amazing stay here in July 2026. Service is amazing especially the hostess Paola. The rooms are incredible and so so clean. The newly gym here was also a highlight of our stay!! Stunning hotel overall <33

This hotel was almost perfect. Yes the noise from the A7 is constant but it really made no difference to our enjoyment or sleep!|We originally booked as it was close to Marbella arena were we had tickets to see UB40 |Google maps was wrong when it said it would rake 40 minutes to walk, as it’s really close and only a 10 minute walk under a tunnel. |Breakfast was varied and plentiful.|The room was massive with two double beds snd a walk in shower there was a safe, fridge and kettle.|Only problem was that there was no late check out availably.|Well done to everyone at the Occidental hotel

Great location, big rooms, decent breakfast… Nonetheless very noisy from the activity in the lobby to the neighbors walking around…

We had a wonderful stay at the Occidental hotel and truly enjoyed the welcoming, child-friendly atmosphere. The facilities are excellent for families and it made our stay very comfortable and relaxing. All of the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and always greeted us with a smile, which made a big difference to our experience. We would especially like to extend our sincere thanks to Francisco in the dining area. He was consistently cheerful, attentive and helpful every day and his warm attitude made our meals even more enjoyable. Thank you to the entire team for such a pleasant and memorable stay. We truly appreciate the care and effort shown by everyone. From, Stringer Family Room 2316

Nice hotel, seems like it’s newly renovated, the rooms are kept nice and clean. The beds are pretty good, pretty soft for Spanish standards, but still a pretty firm. The breakfast is very nice, with lots to choose from, cava included. The location is perfect in Puerto banus, right in the middle. There were a lot of nice personell, especially francisco.
