Nice views, but disappointing pool maintenance and incident handling
The hotel has some positives — we enjoyed the pool and sea views from our room. However, the room had a noticeable musty/damp smell whenever we entered.
Unfortunately, my husband suffered a fairly deep cut to his big toe while inside the hotel pool. Staff provided first aid quickly, which we appreciated. However, the bleeding continued for hours and we eventually had to go to a private hospital for medical treatment.
We later showed the hotel the area where it happened, and maintenance staff inspected it. We could also see damaged/broken tiles around parts of the pool, which made us concerned about the maintenance standard. We have stayed in many hotels around the world and have never experienced an injury like this in a hotel pool before.
The injury was not life-threatening, but it was painful, affected our stay in Marbella, and may also impact the rest of our trip. What disappointed us most was the limited follow-up from management afterwards.
Overall, the hotel has some good qualities, but the pool maintenance and handling of the incident significantly affected our experience.

Very enjoyable, great location and staff. Shame badly needed refurbishments cannot take place due to the uncertain situation, Will definitely come again.

Love the staff!!
Love this hotel, been going for 20 years. The staff are fantastic and we got a great upgrade, couldn’t ask for more, however the hotel is really in need of some investment and desperately needs to sort out the bottom floor. That said I’ll be back next year. Thanks guys!
Go there - stay there...for long
Lovely place - very good service - nice people working in the hotel - exellent service
