We visited in February and mid-week when obviously this hotel is way cheaper than during the summer holiday, plus when we got there we received a free upgrade to a family room, so my review is probably biased a bit by those two factors. The family room upgrade was incredible, much better than I was expecting from a 3 star hotel and it's easily one of the best rooms I've stayed in with so much storage space and lovely modern decor. The air-conditioning wasn't working, but it wasn't warm enough for us to need it so we didn't bother reporting it. Bathroom was a little dated but big enough. Food was typical all-inclusive style buffet food but honestly it was way better than I expected and still plenty of choice, even out during low season. It was better than the food I've had at some 4 star hotels!! Service was excellent!! Staff were lovely, friendly and very helpful. Bar was great, I especially liked that you were given proper glasses instead of plastic cups. San Miguel on tap and it didn't taste watered down like it sometimes does at hotels. Location was fine, not too far from the busier areas. Parking can be tough, there are spaces on the streets nearby but you've got to get there early to get one. We ended up paying for parking for 2 out of 4 days because we couldn't get parked on the street, and it is a bit expensive but €18 per day, but with parking being very tight in the area and limited spaces at the hotel, I understand why. All in all this was a surprisingly good hotel for the money, good food, good drinks and excellent room.

A good standard 3 star hotel, we thought the room was fine for our needs as a family of four. Views are great out across the sea and down to the pool. Our room had a bit of an ant infestation, but it wasn't an issue. We did ask for them to take a look and they said it would be passed to maintenance team but not sure it was. Food was good quality and ample choice at both breakfast and dinner. The chefs are constantly doing fresh fish/meat/eggs so there is always a hot option. That said, they don't seem to keep stuff warm so sometimes you get a dish and it's a bit tepid. Vegetarian choice was a bit random. For example some days all the salads had fish or meat in them, and there was no labelling of what was veggie friendly. Also some of the mains (eg. Curries or main dishes) could have been veggie as there was often 3 meat options. Four pools, all outside, perfectly fine for what they are. Location is also really good, down a hill from the main road and the beach. Ten min walk from the marina. Staff were mostly all very friendly and efficient. Good service all round from the front desk to catering and cleaners. Would happily stay here again.

My holiday in Malaga was 4 months ago so my review is a bit late but I loved it here! I stayed here for three nights, a quick holiday. This was our first holiday as a whole family and it was lovely! The views from the hotel room was beautiful and clean I was satisfied with it. (We had a family room my parents in a double bed and I and my sibling had twin beds beside each other.) - Family superior room. Out of 5 I would rate the food 3/5 because it was okay for a 3-star hotel nothing too bad it was tasty, only downside was my preference because I’m a bit of a picky eater but dessert was always good for me. I loved breakfast selections too, although you have to pay for water at all times, me and my family had booked for breakfast and/ or dinner so some days would stay in for breakfast and lunch to get dinner or go out for lunch and come back for dinner. The service would be a 5/5 for me the cleaner was so kind, though there was a bit of a language barrier she was able to understand and cleaned our room every day, she also left us some fresh extra towels. We also made friends with the female staff in charge of signing us in at meal times she was absolutely amazing and made us feel welcome. The pools were clean and they also had an arcade (downside is you do have to pay) but entertainment is also available for toddlers or smaller children during the evening, was a photographer within the hotel (had to pay aswell) but she was friendly. It would be good to note there is a hill right outside the hotel and this is not accessible at all for wheelchair users or other individuals, the hill is quite named cardiac hill I’ve heard it is very steep so you will have to put in a bit of work when walking back up I will insert photos. Overall I’d rate the hotel 3.5/5 stars it was good.

A very basic hotel. The rooms are functional and cleaned daily which is great, our double room had a bath and shower but there was no kettle or iron, the lack of a kettle was surprising as I think this is a basic requirement in a hotel room. The restaurant (canteen) is very big and very noisy as is the bar, some thought needs to go into the acoustics, with no soft furnishings every noise echos around and it's almost impossible to have a conversation. The food was edible but definitely nothing special, it was generally luke warm unless you got there just as it was being put out on the service areas. The location is great as it's just a short walk from the beach and marina where there are plenty of bars, restaurants and shops. Whilst it claims to be a 3 star hotel I would say it's more like a 2 star. We stayed half board as we had several trips planned so didn't see the point of going all inclusive, maybe if we did we would have got a kettle. EDIT: having checked with reception, you can hire a kettle for €2.50 a day, this includes tea, coffee and milk, replenished daily. They do not have irons for guests but do offer a laundry and ironing service but it's not cheap (average of €5.00 per item just for ironing).

We arrived at this hotel very sceptical as it was a last minute trip and we have definitely got our monies worth! Yes, it is out of season but there is still a full entertainment program for daytime entertainment and nighttime, the restaurant has many options on the evening meals and I must add, very good quality meat options (my favourite was the upright spear chicken kebab meat with fresh tortilla wraps) Swimming pools are open and the staff have been very helpful. The cleaners are so good! They clean the rooms daily and always ask if we want fresh bedding daily too. Just to finish off, we would definitely return to this hotel and there isn’t anything we could possibly say to mark this place down for the money we have spent. Thank you Hotel Bali, we have had a great family break away. We will definitely visit here again in the future. 🌟
