Absolutely perfect holiday. Recently returned from a fantastic 10 day holiday, This was our second visit after first staying in sept 2022 for a 4 day break. We had no hesitations in booking again. We found everything just right for a 3 star and in some aspects it out performs its 3 star status. We had room 1006 on the 10th floor which was beyond our expectations as rather than a standard room, this had 2 levels. First level was a room with dining table and chairs , sofa , to and the balcony with a stunning view . Then a spiral staircase up to a huge bedroom , which had 2 massive double wardrobes and 2 windows which provided a panoramic view of stretching from the main town of Fuengirola all the way down carvajal beach. We had never had a room like this anywhere else we’d ever stayed. This is one of only 2 rooms in the whole hotel. Food was amazing maybe could be switched up ever so slightly but certainly no major issue. , never any problem getting a sunbed anytime of the day. Maybe one thing that would be helpful would be a bath mat just make it safer as was quite slippery . Also the towel rail was coming off the wall and the shower screen didn’t stay on the side of the bath so water from the shower kept going all over the floor. The entertainment was also of very high quality , ranging from a modern illusionist, fantastic flamenco show to an el divo tribute act, who received a standing ovation. There are buses right outside the hotel and the Torreblanca train station just a ten minute walk, so travelling about is very easy. We visited the Miramar shopping centre which is one bus trip away costing the standard charge of only 1.20 euro. Also the resorts of Benalmádena, Torremolinos and a visit to the Bio park zoo is amazing. We met some amazing people and most people were so so friendly. We’ve made some friends we’ll be keeping touch with. The location of this hotel is one of the best we’ve stayed at , quiet enough but not far from everything else you might want. We are already looking forward to returning sometime next year and for a 3 start hotel in such a fanatic resort and locale it really does impress.

O.k. first the location, really good at the quiet end of Fuengirola just across the road from a lovely beach. The hotel itself needs a substantial amount of updating all round , can be very very noisy at night due to the lack of double glazing in the rooms ,along with the fact none of the rooms have any sort of carpeting or noise deafening material installed consequently, the noise echoes from rooms above and people walking by in the corridors. Now I don't come on holiday to watch t.v. however it's nice to catch up with the news now and then, unfortunately even this isn't an option as there are no .English channels here whatsoever . The food is alright can be a bit sameish with pork and chicken dominating most meals . Now for the real downer the bar service at night or should I say lack of ,as I write this on a Saturday night there is one bar open with one girl serving , remember this is for the whole hotel, after waiting for 20minutes with little sign of progress we decided to go out for a drink. Now we are on an all inclusive deal( big big mistake) so our drinks are presumably pre-paid but alas unavailable unless you want to wait 30 minutes minimum. Looking round various web sites there really are a lot better hotels in Fuengirola all be it 4 star rating, which for similar prices offer a great deal with none of the issues we are encountering . Look very very carefully before booking this hotel , it may seem cheap but that is for a very very good reason. Would I stay here again, absolutely no chance whatsoever.

This is the second time we have stayed at the hotel, and every time we enjoyed... the rooms are very clean, stuff very friendly and food are very good and is only 2 minutes away from the beach. I really recommend this hotel and we will be coming back here again.

Just got home after staying at globles gardenia, The hotel was extremely clean and staff where there 24/7 cleaning and the all work extremely hard. The animation team were all brilliant a lot of the guest are Spanish and like different things but the team worked very hard to join others in and adapting games to my son who has mobility issues and autism. The animation team are brilliant and work so hard. The entertainment was 50/50 and could do with more outside acts or a bigger choice of music played. We went all inclusive which I don’t think I would do again the food can be very cold and I microwaved it a lot of the time and it wasn’t for us. My son won’t eat in dining area and I was told off for taking some breakfast to him even tho I explained to the man on restaurant door he seems quite aggressive about it. He mentioned ants I said I would bring the plate straight back and he was rude about my son not eating in dining room. I went to the Italian every night to buy his tea but that wasn’t possible early in mornings. The reception team also really lovely and extremely helpful. I think all but one staff member were amazing and work so hard. The staff are the stars of the hotel and the cleanest we’ve stayed at.

Just had a week at this hotel , very much enjoyed our stay , perfectly positioned very close to the beach. Staff were brilliant and friendly , food was better then expected with lots of choice . Rooms were great , slightly dated but plenty of space , we found the beds a bit firm but that's our own choice. Close to shops and bars which was good as we had a week's worth of storm . Would deffo stay here again. You need your own hair dryer and kettle but you can hire kettles and fridges at reception. All in all a very enjoyable stay. We had a full day trip with tui ended up at an orange farm , this was an exerlent trip and we'll worth a visit.

Lovely place shame about the weather still here staff brilliant especially lola make life so 😁 weather not been good but can't help that but lola made everyone join in our room was lovely and the cleaning people was brilliant 😊 doing their work well done we will return

Lola George hernaan animation team absolutely fantastic made our holiday worth going x Food not so good rooms are ok Entertainment fantastic Sea views are fantastic Only one bar open in march when we were there Loads of Spanish people there

Stayed from the 21/03-28/03/24. The hotel was immaculate & clean & the staff were always very friendly & helpful, apart from 1 entertainer , who once he found out we were british, wasn't really keen on interacting with us. The rooms are light & airy but very basic. There are no kettles or fridges should you want to make yourself a drink in your room or buy chill canned drinks for consumption in your room. There seemed to be very little entertainment for the few children who were there & it wasn't uncommon to hear kids say they were bored. Entertainment in the evening was poor & didn't really start until 9.30 pm , but even then it was geared more towards the spanish residents than an international one. The restaurant only has a limited capacity & it wasn't unusual to see long queues of people waiting to be seated. The choice of food was extremely limited & more often than not, was luke warm & I had to microwave my meals on a couple of occasions, so we ended up eating out quite a few times. There is also a snack bar open from 11am to 12.30 am & again from 4pm to 6pm, which is only for the inclusive clients but even then, the food wasn't brilliant. The pool was closed due to it being out of season, but there is a small, heated indoor pool & a heated spa pool. The best thing about the hotel is the fact it's located on the seafront & within walking distance of some bars & shops. In short, I wouldn't go again but each to their own.
