Gorgeous inside and out. The pool which looks so small when talking past in the mountain is actually a lot bigger than I expected. the restaurant is specular! I had the pulpo and my boyfriend had a steak. Top quality!!! Which is what should be expected for a nice hotel like this. I see another review had a problem with the internet. I hadn't had this problem, but i didn't bring my work with me either. I know how annoying it is when you can't get decent hotel wifi. But I think this wasn't typical. Our room was huge. Views awesome! And I had to hike to get here. I love this place! 5 stars! I'll add pics when I finally download them from my dslr

After two agonizing and toxic-smelling nights at our spacious 'Time & Home' rental by "Marriott",…read morehubs and I knew we had to get the hell out. What really broke the camel's back after 2 days in, was that the entire house reeked like sewage. Hubs Google mapped Guadalmina as our final and God-send destination to continue celebrating my birthday. Guadalmina opens up with grand style. Lots of terracotta, high ceilings, wood beams and porcelain tiles to give the entrance that Marbella touch and elegance. The hosts (and there were several) were pleasant. Compared to where we came from, our room was equipped with a balcony+sea view, TV, twin beds made into a Queen ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, air conditioning, bathtub with shower head and a few other necessities. There is no valet and when hubs asked the doorman/greeter to park it, all he said was, "we don't do that here because everyone parks their own car...but if you want me to, I will". Ok then, so no valet. Restaurant on site is put together and crisp. Complimentary breakfast/brunch buffet was real spread with quality offerings including bubbly and fresh squeezed oj at your convenience. Pool access+chairs is €0. Beach access however, will cost you €20 but that gives you the entire day to dip and sunbathe as often as you like in a given day, you can take breaks in between and can leave the premises if you want. Cocktails at the pool bar are weak so I suggest you keep your money in your pocket. For an exclusive hotel and for what hubs paid for- for 4 days, it DID NOT include: bottled water (which sold for €4. Really???), iron was missing (I did a MacGyver and used the hair blower to get rid of wrinkles on clothes), bathroom essentials or wastebasket baggies. Overall, Guadalmina was a nice stay in Marbella and a stone's throw away from the beach.

Full breakfast is included for the price of your visit, and activities are run throughout the day (although we did not partake in these). Clientele is definitely focused on the golf available on the resort, and in the area. Friendly and accommodating staff. Wi-fi is also included with your stay, but it is spotty - had to disconnect and reconnect many, many, many times.

True story: We ordered drinks at an on-site restaurant, El Rincon, and they came, along with a dish of peanuts. At the bottom of the dish we saw ashes. In short, they served us from a dirty ashtray. I am disappointed in this restaurant. The resort is fine, clean, attractive, and well-maintained, just far removed from the experience of actually being in Spain. I say this as someone who stayed in Torremolinos back in '85, and this is my first return trip to Spain. But be advised, you must travel beyond the confines of the MacDonald Resort to get an authentic Spanish feel, as opposed to the transplanted Little Britain that exists here.
