Best oceanfront daybeds in Marbella: find options near you

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.

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!

One of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to with my girlfriends! The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, and the food was absolutely amazing. We had the best paella in Marbella full of flavor and cooked perfectly. Everything we ordered was delicious, from the drinks to the desserts and even the shots.

I just had lunch at Dolce Vita and honestly, it was such a good experience. We started with a salad with lettuce, berries, and cheese that was surprisingly good—really fresh and nicely balanced. Then we had the parmigiana, which was excellent, proper comfort food and full of flavor. Also worth mentioning: the walnut and raisin bread, which was something different and really, really good. For the mains, we went for three different paellas. The chicken one was solid and tasty, the black rice had a deeper, more intense flavor, and the one with octopus and artichokes was probably my favorite—just a bit more special and very well done. All of them had a great socarrat, which always makes a difference. Overall, everything we tried was on point. You can tell there’s care in the cooking. Definitely a place I’d come back to.

Spot on! Great beachfront food, excellent service, and a wonderful ambience. Fair prices for Marbella standards. Will definitely be back!

Tons of Spanish and locals eating here. Chaotic and busy, you gotta love that – we didn’t mind. The waiter told us Paella would take 1 hour, considering how busy it was we thought it was acceptable. We killed time by swimming and he even came to get us when it was ready, very attentive!

Amazing service and food here. We came here for my best friends hen do and they gave us a lovely bottle of alcohol to have shots on the house which was so sweet. Bread and chips were 10/10! Would definitely recommend!! Gracias!

Very good food and service! We stayed nearby and we saw that it is highly rated on Google so came here to eat. The food was as good as advertised. All of the fried seafood was done exceptionally well. The batter was light and the seafood fresh. Would definitely recommend getting the fried seafood platter. The paella is really good as well and the portion size was humongous. It fed the 4 of us well. Definitely do order as it’s value for money. The 12 piece croquettes is good as well. I loved the variety and freshness. Overall a perfect experience.

The restaurant is good and the food is delicious, but check your receipts. We didn’t ask for bread and butter, but they brought it to us and charged us for it. THE BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT WAS THE YOUNG WAITER. HE WAS RUDE. HE KNOCKED MY CHAIR OVER THREE TIMES. I ALMOST FELL, BUT HE DIDN’T APOLOGISE ONCE. ONLY FOR THIS, YOU COULD REMOVE ALL THE STARS FROM THE RESTAURANT, BUT THAT WOULD BE UNFAIR TO THE OTHER EMPLOYEES, SO I’M GIVING ONE STAR LESS FOR THIS RUDE WAITER. We spent €185. For that kind of money, you can be more respectful to your customers!

What a fantastic walk along the coast! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, with the iconic mountain providing a stunning backdrop. Seeing the historic hotel added such a touch of glamour to the experience. I could have stayed there for hours just soaking it all in. Definitely a highlight of my life.

Simply amazing view and atmosphere. For sure a visit worth. You can take beautiful pictures there and it is a great expierence when you nearby.

A lovely wooden jetty jutting out from Playa de nagueles, adding to the beauty of the area. One of many things to see whilst enjoying the walk from Puerto de Banus to Marbella old town.

Spacious beach, but not very clear water. There are beach bars every 500~600m. There is walking area next to the beach. Ideal for jogging.

Unforgettable sunset! Just amazing! Clear water where it is possible to see the bottom of the sea.

Amazing views of Marbella and La Concha peak. The water is crystal clear so you can see the fish. The nature is pure joy!

Good tranquilo place at night.

Stayed in apartment 602 and it was great. Lovely newly refurbished kitchen with everything we needed. Lovely to have the duplex so felt spacious and the extra downstairs loo was an added bonus. Lovely and clean with a hoover to enable us to give the place a once over when we got back from the beach/the apartment needed it. The washing machine was a dream to have to rinse out towels etc. Sun all day from the afternoon on the balcony. The only thing I’d say was missing was a full length mirror but simply an observation. Getting beds round the pool was a bit manic as people were queuing to get their lounger mattresses from over an hour before it actually opened though I expected this having visited the SKOL annually growing up with family and it was the same then. 🤣🤣 Plenty of room on the beach though. You cannot beat The SKOL for location. A walk to the old town and harbour etc with a supermarket/great bars and restaurants just along the front out the gardens gate which is literally directly onto the beach. Fab long run towards Puerto Banus every morning was glorious. Daniela was very quick to respond to emails when booking. I’ll definitely go back to this apartment. ❤️

We had a fantastic stay at this apartment in Marbella. The location is amazing, right on the boulevard, with beautiful beaches, great restaurants, and lovely cafés all nearby. It is also the perfect place to enjoy Marbella’s lively nightlife. The apartment is cozy, very clean, and has everything you need. We had a wonderful holiday and really enjoyed our time in Marbella. We will definitely return!

We stayed in Skol 541B and had a wonderful time. The location was perfect, right in the heart of Marbella close to the beach and Old Town with so many lovely restaurants to choose from just a few steps away. The pool was great, sun beds 3 EUR each for all day. The apartment was clean and well equipped with beautiful views. The service we received was excellent – Daniela + Vincenzo answered all our questions and ensured we had a comfortable stay. 5 Stars from me!

Great apartment in ideal location – very close to the beach yet within easy walking distance of the old town! Apartment is a lot larger than many others in the area but does not have a seaview. The balcony, which easily seats 4-6 people, overlooks a crossroads and sits above some restaurants but we’ve never had any issues with noise! The two bedrooms are extremely spacious with lots of storage, and each has their own full bathroom, one of which has a bath and the other a walk in shower. The kitchen is modern and has all mod cons, from microwave to full oven and hob, American fridge freezer, washing machine and dryer and even a wine fridge! Much appreciated. The Nuevo Venencia restaurant downstairs is fabulous and caters for many locals – indicative of how good it is! A cocktail bar opposite which does extremely good cocktails, pizza place and bakery within 30 seconds of the front door provide additional food options but being so close to all the other amenities make this the perfect apartment for short or long stays!

Really lovely, modern and well equipped apartment. The gardens and pool area are very good and well managed for a very reasonable price per day. Booked for next year already 👏👏

Great 2 weeks spent at Skoll Apt 544C, the Ocean view was perfect , I had a friend staying with me for a week and other friends in another apt. We loved Marbella, so many things to go and visit by walking distance. Also visited other cities Malaga, Gilbraltar, Malaga, Porto Bannus so close to do day trips. Looking fwd to return next Year. Thank you Daniela🥰 Liz Ditchburn Toronto, Canada

We’ve stayed at Skol a few times over the past few years and we love it. Feels like coming back to an old friend. This time we stayed in 703a which is a lovely apartment with a separate lounge area and a balcony with fabulous sea view. We enjoyed spending lazy days around the pool and beach. There are so many restaurants and bars you’re spoilt for choice but our favourites are La Ola and Basillio on the beach. Would definitely recommend and we will be back again ☺️

Excellent experience at Ona Marbella Inn. Very well located around everything (old town, beach, bus stop). The receptionits are very helpful. Many thanks to Jose for being friendly and helping me in good English with all my questions when checking in. The breakfast was very nice as well. The room was cleaned on a daily basis. In general the vibes all around were positive! Thank you, hope to see you again!

The best hotel out there with the best prices. The room was very clean and the bed was the most comfortable bed i’ve ever slept. The old town and the beach was super close like 5 min with walk. We left our bags even after the check-out and they kept them like 5-6 hours without saying nothing. The best!!

Everything was great. Clean rooms, good service, and a pleasant stay. If the breakfast had a little more variety for a 5-day stay, it would have been perfect.

This is a perfect 3-star hotel right near the centre. Check-in was really easy and Jose was really friendly and helpful. The room was immaculate – not a thing out of place, easy to use and well maintained. Breakfast was adequate without being amazing but if you care about breakfast enough there’s a really good cafe around the corner. All in all it was excellent value for money and I would definitely come back here again.

Couldn’t ask for a warmer welcome, amazing location, warm welcoming staff, perfect breakfast. We will definitely be back. Thank you

An excellent stay. The hotel is very centrally located with all amenities within walking distance. The rooms are spacious enough and very clean. There is a amazing pool on the rooftop with a beautiful view. Further offers this hotel plenty of facilities. The breakfast is very variable and international. We had a very great guest expierence, because the staff is very friendly and helpful. They take very good care to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Special compliments to Ruben for his incredible efforts. We will remember our stay there with a great feeling and truly recommend this hotel ti others.

Just like one of the comments here said, we also got a “shared room”, room that is split with the thin doors, so you can hear your neighbours using toilet, having sex, talking loud and you can wake up with the sound of person throwing up (from drinking night before). I told the staff, they did come up, but its their fault for renting us room with shared door not people using the room. Later that night there was also a loud talking/yelling (drinking) in other room, noone stopped it and it went on until 3:30AM or until i fell asleep from exhaustion. In morning I told that to the staff, asked for refund, it was like he was already prepared to say that they went up and stopped people having sex 😀 and rejected refund, but it wasnt about me getting 100€ back, its about respect and that you cant rent a shared room split with thin door, I was feeling like its my fault that I rented a room in a party hotel for a good night sleep. So if you came to Marbella for party, this is your hotel, you have nice balcony for hanging out with friends, noone will stop you, and you may be lucky and get a shared room and drink with your neighbour if you are lucky to get party neighbour and not a neighbour that wants a good night sleep. But if you came to Marbella as tourist, I would skip this hotel as you wont get a good night sleep, you will get a lot of sounds from street, from haning out in rooms, you will get a broken balcony door that cant lock and maybe a shared room with a loud neighbour.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this villa! The property was stunning, immaculately clean, and even more beautiful than the photos. It had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing vacation. The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive, making check-in and check-out a breeze. We would love to come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect getaway!

My family and I, recently stayed at Villa Lina in Marbella, managed by Vacation Marbella, and we had an absolutely wonderful time! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The villa itself was stunning, incredibly beautiful, and spotlessly clean. The check-in and check-out processes were completely seamless and stress-free. What truly made our stay special, though, was the team. Every single time we needed something, the staff went above and beyond—they were always so kind, responsive, and incredibly helpful. We had a fantastic vacation and highly recommend Vacation Marbella to anyone looking for the perfect villa getaway in Marbella. We can’t wait to come back!

We had a fantastic experience renting a villa from Vacation Marbella, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them or use them again. We stayed at Villa Nadal in Elviria and had a wonderful time. The property was beautiful and spotlessly clean. We also used their shopping service which made everything so much easier on our arrival. The team were really responsive through the booking process and in advance of our trip, providing helpful information.

The house was exceptionally well organized and spotlessly clean, including the swimming pool. Everything was in perfect working order, and our stay was absolutely flawless. We have no complaints whatsoever. I highly recommend this property and would gladly give it 5 stars. I would definitely rent it again.

Villa Hanami is incredible. From the first moment it felt like we are at home. The house is super spacious and bright, nice decor. The best part is in the master bedroom the sunrise in the morning, the view was amazing. Neighbourhood is quiet, walking distance to the shops and beach. Communication with the company was super easy and smooth. Reply fast. Highly recommend!

⭐☆☆☆☆ (1/5) Our experience with this villa and the agent, Carmen, was extremely disappointing and stressful. From the moment we arrived, it was the worst check-in experience we have ever had. As first-time visitors to Marbella, we expected at least basic hospitality and support, but there was none. Another group arrived before us and could not even access the villa because the payment link had never been sent to us in advance. This caused unnecessary delays and confusion. When we finally got access, the villa was not ready. The rooms were not prepared, and it was clear the property had not been properly prepared for our arrival. On the second day, another serious issue occurred. The security/access system stopped working, and the main gate would not open. My niece and her nanny returned to the villa while everyone else was asleep, but they were locked outside and unable to get in. We repeatedly tried to contact Carmen, but she did not answer our calls or messages. After almost 10 hours, we finally had to contact the intermediary who introduced us to Carmen, and only then was the villa owner contacted to resolve the issue and restore access. This level of support is completely unacceptable, especially in an emergency. The villa was also advertised as having a security system, but once you enter the property, the alarm has to be deactivated because it continuously goes off. In reality, we did not feel that there was any effective security. The most upsetting part of our stay was that we were robbed on the third day. Despite knowing what had happened, Carmen never came to check on us, never asked if we were safe, and never offered any assistance or support. We were left to deal with the situation entirely on our own. The villa is in an isolated area, and we did not feel safe throughout our stay. Based on our experience, we cannot recommend staying in this location. We expected much better communication, professionalism, and care from the agent, especially after multiple serious incidents. Unfortunately, this was one of the worst villa rental experiences we have ever had, and we would not recommend booking through Carmen.

This was, without question, one of the worst rental experiences we have ever had. Before our arrival, everything seemed fine. The villa looked beautiful in the photos, and the booking process was straightforward. Unfortunately, the experience changed completely the moment we arrived. The property manager, Karmin, was extremely rude, aggressive, and unprofessional. Instead of welcoming us, we were treated with hostility. We were refused access to the bedrooms and were not given the keys immediately. The remaining payment was demanded in a confrontational and intimidating manner, making us feel like we were being treated as suspects rather than paying guests. The security system at the villa also gave us a false sense of safety. During our stay, four masked men broke into the property while our children were inside with their nannies. The intruders stole valuables worth well over €300,000 and left our children and our entire family deeply traumatized. It was one of the most terrifying experiences we have ever been through. What was even more shocking was the complete lack of care and compassion shown afterward. When we contacted the owner and the management company for help, we were told that we were calling outside working hours and that what had happened was “not their responsibility.” Despite living only a couple of minutes away, no one came to check on us, offer assistance, or even ask if the children were safe. There was no empathy, no support, and no sense of responsibility during what was clearly a traumatic emergency. We understand that no property owner can always prevent a crime. However, how you respond when your guests experience a life-changing event says everything about your professionalism and your values. In our case, the response was cold, dismissive, and completely unacceptable. A luxury villa is not just about the building it’s about the service, the safety, and the way guests are treated when things go wrong. This property failed on all three. We would never stay here again, and we cannot recommend it to anyone looking for a safe, professionally managed, or genuinely hospitable place to stay.

We were treated exceptionally well by Jose Miguel and Francisco at reception. They were both so friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. Their English is excellent, so communication was effortless. We’re very happy with our choice of this hotel. The location couldn’t be better, everything is within walking distance, including the beach, Old Town, and plenty of restaurants. Great hospitality, great staff, and a great stay. We would definitely come back!

had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The staff were absolutely amazing—friendly, professional, and always happy to help. Everything was excellent from start to finish, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend this hotel and gladly give it five stars!

Great four day stay here with my husband and our friends.||We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and the staff are so friendly and welcoming, from the minute we stepped into the reception we know we were going to have a great stay. ||The whole place is kept very clean and we had a great cleaner. Breakfast is very nice, with plenty of choice.||We felt the surrounding area was very quiet and so we had a good rest. ||We left early this morning for our flight home and as we weren’t able to have breakfast, they made us up a goody bag to take to the airport, with water, fruit, biscuits and a sandwich.||I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend staying here, as its so close to the beach, shops and restaurants, with beautiful old Marbella town just behind us.

Hotel was ok. Little dated.

Great on the beach. Access to old town near and within walking distance. Great breakfast. Very friendly front desk. Disabled lift from reception to main lift area. Access to roof via lift bur stairs to roof pool

Shower was soooo good! First flor! No water for Breakfast. Just easy water! Breakfast: hmmmm i found always something to eat. But… not intresting, not tasty. Something to survive. View: amazing! 1 thing to tell: I lost my phone in Tarifa and some really good people sended it back from Marocco… whatever… i went to the receptionist to asked some help. I was tired, afraid, exhausted.. we had an other phone, but i needed some support, maybe call a number and speak spanish. The first thing what the receptionist told: You can also find this information in Internet. He helped. But he was not a bit kind.

Fantastic location and friendly welcoming staff on Reception, thanks to Alberto, Frank, Juan, Miguel, Paco and Raual for all their assistance. As always the chambermaids did an amazing job and the standard of cleaning is very high. I have visited here for over 15 years and it has never disappointed.

Stunning food, our large group had literally every type of food from classic Spanish, to Italian to sushi and everything without exception was fabulous. Very high end quality and presentation but with flavours to match. The staff were without exception charming and looked after us exceptionally well. We loved it so much we visited twice in our one week holiday!! Two of our group work in restaurant industry in London and this is exceptional. The setting also lovely and if you sit in the almost conservatory area at the front rather than outside you get the view as well as the gorgeous beach breeze without baking outside. Love this place. You will not regret a visit!

Beautiful place, super friendly staff and the food was incredible. Lovely touch that they finish the food prep table side!

Terrible service. Reserved a bed and when I arrived the African guy in charge of the beds said there’s no reservations. However there were beds available so luckily got one – he charged me €25, yet I overheard him charge other people 20, or 25, depending how he fancied. Was there over an hour before they took my order for my drink that was ‘included’ with the price of the bed – a sparkling water they took 20 minutes to deliver. I would never return to this beach bar. There are an abundance of others available along the coast!

So good good on the whole and great menu. And the setting is great so we come back. Their wines by the glass are terrible. You ask why when there is so much great choice out there. I wouldn’t mind if the food was cheaper but it is right up there with expensive restaurants. So – get the wine right, a bit more attentive service and everyone would be happy!

Lovely restaurant in a delightful location. I was recommended this place by my mother’s care home in San Pedro. She is in a wheelchair so needed somewhere that was very accessible and near the beach. Playa Nini Beach did not disappoint. A beautiful restaurant boasting an eclectic menu right on the boulevard ticked all the boxes. We were able to park nearby and access into the restaurant was easy. What I did not expect was the delicious array of food on offer ranging from contemporary sushi to popular Mediterranean dishes, not badly priced either, at least when you’re used to UK prices. I can highly recommend Playa Nini Beach for a relaxing lunch or dinner away from the crowds with spectacular views across the beach and sea.

Amazing restaurant, the atmosphere is just chill and elegant. People are very friendly, good vibes and always ready to help. The food is a bit more expensive than other places in Spain but really it’s worth it. The quality of the food and the taste of it is just great. The quantities are good as well, you will be happy only with a main or a salad.

We went for breakfast, everyone enjoyed their food, it was fresh good portions and tasty and easy to substitute the food in our order. We sat outside near the beach the weather was beautiful (early September). Easy parking. The beach beds looked nice, will try them next time!

No price for the fish of the day; they told us it was Lubina for 2 people as it is huge, which is fine. We got a small standard farm sea bass which is for one person, and we even asked the waiter if this was really the same as what we ordered for 2 people, the big one. He told us, “Well, it is the fish of the day, okay no problem.” No big fish left, okay no problem. When we got the bill, we were shocked: a standard size (500-600g) of this sea bass fish – 65 euros! 😅 They thought we were tourists and easy to make money from as nobody checks the bills… and we were told that they successfully sold 7 fishes today for this price and nobody said anything!!! Red mullet is a much more expensive fish and it was cheaper than the Lubina sea bass! Response: Small sea bass for one person for 65? There is no restaurant for this price (unless it is in Puente Romano); all restaurants have only fresh and good quality fish! I paid 30, as I said, that is the maximum price that could be charged for a small fish! Most importantly, it had to be a fish for 2 people! Which is 1-1.2 kg! It is daylight robbery! Legally, a fish for one person is 400-600, and for 2 people, it is from 1 kg!No price for fish of the day, they told it is Lubina for 2 persons as it is huge, well thats fine. We got small standart farm sea bass which is for one person and we even asked for the waiter is that realy the same what we ordered for 2 persons the big one. He told well it is the fish of the day, ok no prob. No big fish left ok no problem. When we got the bill we were shocked , standart size (500-600g) of this see bass fish – 65 eur! 😅 They thought we are tourists and easy to make money as nobody cheking the bills… and we been told that they successfully sold 7 fishes today for this price and nobody told nothing !!! Rodaballo is much more expensive fish and it was cheaper than Lubina See bass! Response : Small for one person sea bass 65? There is no restaurant for this price (if it is not in Puente Romano) , all restaurants has only fresh and good quality fish! I paid 30 as I told this is max price could be charged for small fish! Most important is that had to be fish for 2 persons! Which is 1-1,2 kg! It is daylight robbery! Legally one person fish 400-600, 2 persons – from 1 kg!Translated commentShow original

Lido Beach is one of the good beach clubs we’ve visited. The sunbeds are excellent value at just €12, the food is amazing, and the overall atmosphere is relaxing and enjoyable. A special thank you to Ibrahim, who looks after the sunbeds. He is incredibly friendly, and always makes sure everyone is comfortable. His kindness and attention to guests really make a difference and keep us coming back. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a beautiful beach, great food, excellent service, and fantastic value!

Location: Right on the beach, just a few meters from the sea – beautiful view and great setting. Staff: Friendly and quick, though it was quiet during our visit. Food: – Gambas pil pil: unfortunately cheap Norwegian frozen prawns, watery, salty, and tasteless. Overloaded with garlic and a red chili, but lacking real flavor. – Homemade croquettes: decent, nothing special. – Avocado with smoked salmon: good quality and a generous portion, one of the better dishes. – Caesar salad: very basic – some lettuce, breaded fried chicken, and standard dressing. Lacking imagination and flavor. – Hamburger Español: a missed opportunity. Bun not toasted, meat too raw and bland. Serrano ham served cold (why not warmed on the grill to release flavor?), a small piece of manchego cheese, and just a tiny bit of garlic mayonnaise. Fries on the plate were good: clean frying oil and not greasy. Overall, the burger’s quality did not match the price. Conclusion: Stunning location and friendly staff, but the kitchen disappoints. Poor value for money and little attention to taste or detail.

Very disappointing experience at Lido Beach. The beach was almost empty, with very few people around. I paid for one sunbed and placed some of my belongings on the empty sunbed next to me. Shortly afterward, the staff member responsible for the sunbeds approached me in a very aggressive manner. Instead of speaking politely, he started shouting that I had only paid for one bed and could only use one. What shocked me most was that he grabbed my belongings and threw them onto my sunbed in front of everyone. His behavior was rude, disrespectful, and completely unnecessary. I felt humiliated and treated as if I had done something criminal, despite there being plenty of empty beds available. I have visited many beaches and have never experienced such unprofessional and hostile customer service. The staff member’s attitude ruined what should have been a relaxing day. I would not recommend this beach unless management improves how guests are treated.

If we say that Lido Beach is absolutely perfect, we take the risk that next time it is too busy. Nevertheless, this place makes you feel you have the perfect holiday! We always come here, for a drink, for a lunch, for a sunbed with relaxing music. The staff is oh so friendly, helpfull and working really hard all day long to give you the best service. Take a seat at the border of the restaurant and enjoy the nice view of the sea and the mountains. We absolutely fell in love at Lido Beach and we will always return here, when we are around.

The low rating is fully understandable, food is average. The owner needs some training in hospitality (mentioned already before by other reviewers) and payments with a regular ATM card are only possible for 20 euro or higher. The spot on the beach is nice and the restaurant looks nice, but it is not the complete picture. Don’t order the chicken sandwich, tasteless and more mayonnaise than chicken, price for this € 14,75. Also check out the other reviews. So a good spot to lay on the beach but you can skip the food.

Disappointed regular guest – watch out for hidden and illegal fees! We have visited Lido Beach for several years during our stays in Elviria, but this year we were deeply disappointed. Upon paying, a service fee had been added to the bill without any prior warning. This fee was never communicated by the staff, nor was it stated in the menu. Charging extra for the basic service one expects as a guest is highly unprofessional. Furthermore, this practice violates Spanish law (**Ley General para la Defensa de los Consumidores y Usuarios**), which requires all prices and fees to be clearly stated in advance. This lack of transparency completely ruined the entire experience. We will not be returning and recommend others to be very vigilant when checking their bill.
