Just home from our 10 night stay at hotel parasol, our stay was amazing! The food is so good, the pool bar ranges from fruit and vegetables to burgers and pizza. Each day the buffet had different options, we especially enjoyed the themed nights. The staff in the restaurant are so welcoming and helpful. The breakfast has so many different options from fried and scrambled egg to fresh crepes and churros. The food at the show cooking area is so fresh and hot. Daniel in the restaurant was especially helpful and welcoming, he offered us highchairs and directed us to the area designed for babies/ young children and disabled. The rooms are so modern, They are a good size and have a big balcony with chairs and a table, our rooms had a nice view of the beach. Each room also has a small fridge. The pool area is a good size, it is not too small and not too big, the baby pool was amazing for the 1 1/2 year old with us, it was never too busy which is perfect. The pool was an amazing size, it was never tight for space. We especially loved how you could bring pool floats e.g, lilos and rings into the water. Not a lot of hotels allow this. Everyday they had different pool games e.g, water aerobics, volleyball and basketball. During our stay they had an inflatable water obstacle which looked like good fun. The bar is very good, the cocktails are amazing, there is such a good range of different drinks for everyone. We loved the special displayed cocktails that the barmen made. We also enjoyed the lollypop cocktails that Jairol the entertainer made. A special thanks to Francisco at the pool bar. The entertainment during the day was for suited for everyone, most nights they had a mini disco for the kids. The nightime entertainment is also good, around 9:30 it was either a quiz or bingo and prizes can be won. Then at 10 there is shows on stage e.g, flamingo dancing, karaoke, singers etc. The girl entertainers are especially good with children. The park in the hotel is also good for children. There is also ping pong, pool tables and other arcade type games. Javier at reception was very helpful, we gave me bus times for a trip I wanted to make, he was very welcoming. The area is very nice, there is a back gate which takes you straight to the beach. There is 3 nice souvenir shops within a 5 minute walk. There is a supermarket about 10 minutes walk away. To get into Torremolinos town centre you need to get a bus or taxi which is 10-20 minutes away, you also need to get a bus to the market. The only thing I would suggest would be is providing a walkway/ramp from the pool to the building for pram and wheelchair access. It is very hard carrying a pram up the steps especially if the baby is sleeping.
