Hotel Palmasol Puerto Marina

Lovely clean hotel. Needs more storage in bedrooms. Tea & coffee not replenished by maids unless I asked every day at reception. Disappointed with breakfast, plenty choice, but hot buffet was luke warm and bread for toast stale and some toasters not working. Only went for breakfast twice out of our 4 day stay.

The location is great. Close to the beach and restaurants. It is really close to the local bus stop for excursions so that was a definite plus for me. The hotel itself is a bit run down in the rooms and some of the areas were closed, particularly the outdoor patio bar. The buffet breakfast was okay, nothing out of the ordinary fare but coffee was out of one of those press and pou machines so that was disappointing. Entertainment was a bit cheesy. The pool area is wonderful with gardens and lots of palm trees around. Water was too cold to really swim but that was due to the weather not being warm enough yet to heat it up by the sun. Staff were friendly and helpful. All in all, a good choice for location and outdoor pool area. Didn't like the fact that it was a card only payment system.

I had a very good experience. The hotel had a perfect location and the breakfast buffet was great. They had bands instead of cards to access the rooms which didn't work sometimes so that was a bit annoying but later the bands were fixed, apart from that the hotel rooms had no iron to press clothes. But overall the experience was very good.

Nice hotel, beds are good! The handy man saved my bacon when my AirPod fell out my ear on the 5th floor and ended up in the gardens. Noisy at the front of the hotel from the road and building works

Loved this hotel great breakfast choices. And very convenient for everything around in belamendina

Only negatives were inability to hire an iron and rooms at the back of the hotel subject to excessive noise from bin area…. Positives are aplenty, from the staff,to cleanliness, to location etc etc….. love this hotel …

Great little resort to relax at

Asked for a high floor away from the lifts, got floor 1, yes it was away from the lift, just would of liked higher as light sleeper staying for 16 days, my room didn’t get swept much whilst was there so a lot of floor dirt on my feet after a shower wasn’t amazing! Hotel is nice, don’t get me wrong but feel could do with a few tweeks to make it better

Went for a 5 Nights Bed and Breakfast stay at The Palmasol with 16 friends on a Golf trip. Rooms a little small with an ensuite shower room . Breakfast was ok with plenty of options . Staff were helpful and friendly and the location of the hotel was excellent. Having a front facing room could prove noisy with building work going on opposite .

LOVELY HOTEL IN A GRTEAT LOCATION FOR THE MARINA AND CENTRAL BENALMADENA.

Everything ok staff very friendly and helpful would come again

There is a lot of building work around the propery. Digger and cranes started at 7.30. Would have been ok if on poolside of hotel

It would have been a perfect 10 other than for the building work going on right opposite the hotel which made for a noisy and early morning

Did not feel it was four star

Great food options.

Hotel is nice but not 4 star. It is expensive for what you get. Awful experience at checking in with the receptionist. Our room was fine with a small balcony looking out onto 2 building sites. I didn’t mind the view so much as the noise which started very early in the morning, I think if we had been pre warned it would have been better. The breakfast was really good with a good choice. I only went to dinner once. I found the quality of the food awful. The bar staff are very pleasant and under quite a lot of stress with the wristband system I do feel sorry for them but the queues for drinks is terrible easily up to 10 to 15 people at a time. After 2 nights we stayed away from the hotel for the evenings. Crazy to pay for a kettle in the room. Location was great but won’t be staying again. Please give customer service training to your receptionists they are so unhelpful.

Didn’t like the room given, ordered a double give a twin, pool view no way give a view of a building site then was asked for 50 euros extra to change to the room requested. Faff on with bracelets for paying, never had to queue at a gate to get into pool and subbed area before and not open till 10am. Money bracelets act as door keys also and forever not working, back to reception to reload. Only one receptionist on duty so checkin very slow especially when your following a bus load in.

Most people staying at the hotel looked 50 and over so it was nice and quiet with no gangs of kids or hen parties. The place always looked clean, smelled fresh and had reception 24 hours, also lemon or cucumber water on the reception desk for free.The rooms were nice with a balcony, 2 chairs and small table. Nice shower room.There is also a safe you can hire. We went self catering and were given a blue band that reception could add money too for the bar as they don't take cash. The pool is nice goes up to 5ft at the deep end. Lots of beds around the pool and on the grass behind but limited umbrellas. There is a large seating area by the bar with tables and chairs you can order small snacks along with your drinks. Also a large canopy area where you can chill or have a nap. There is a gym and small hot tub and next to them there is a door that leads to the main part of the marina, local supermarket, bars, restaurants and if you follow left or right it will take you over to more shops and the beach's. The only problem we had was the maid did not close our room door properly twice after cleaning during our 10 night stay. Nothing was taken but we were upset about it. The manager was nice and dealt with the problem himself. From malaga airport we ordered an uber and it cost around $23 for the 20 minute ride or you can take a train €3 and then a taxi. We didnt dine there so dont know what the meals were like but there was usually a que at the bar due to only 1 or 2 staff serving.

Facilities are relatively basic. Missing some touches. There is a kettle but no coffee or tea etc. Beach towels. Gym location is not too attractive

We paid all inclusive and it clearly was not all inclusive with lots of hidden payments , upgrade drinks, safe hire, water was not in rooms, restricted bar times and entertainment was total rubbish !!! It looks great on the advert but when you get there it’s average at best ! The hotel can’t cope with large numbers and are rude to guests a lot of the time wouldn’t waste your money on all inclusive it’s a con !
