Vive Costa Azul

A charming hotel in a small picturesque village, with the hotel itself just 100 meters from the local train station, and fantastic proximity to several other beautiful locations along the Costa del Sol, making it easy to explore the area. The breakfast buffet was fantastic, both filling and very tasty, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms and the hotel as a whole are tastefully decorated, which contributed to a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. When I encountered some challenges with noise at night from a nearby room, the staff did their best to assist and resolve the issue, which I greatly appreciated. I stayed here for three weeks and quickly felt at home thanks to the warm and welcoming attitude of the staff. I truly fell for both the hotel and the village, which had a wonderful, authentic atmosphere. The only area for potential improvement would be slightly better sound insulation between the rooms, which I would love to see. I look forward to returning for a longer stay in the near future and am curious to see the updates made for the next season.

Pros: - great value for money - conveniently located right next to the train station which takes you to the airport and to nearby towns (Benalmadena and Malaga) - sea view from the balcony - spacious rooms, comfortable beds - pleasant walking distance form the beautiful beach Playa Bonita - great opportunityto visit the spectacular Castillo Colomares via about 40 min hike as the hotel is located right down the hill from the castle Cons: - breakfast options a bit limited but they were ok for 3 star hotel - only one shop in the area

very comfortable, bright and big room, the bed was big with a comfortable mattress, big terrace with a view till the ocean, calm hotel, the trainstation next to the hotel, friendly stuff, we didn't had breakfeast there, but what we saw, looked good. We enjoyed our stay.

The hotel is located on Brdo in Toremuele, away from the beach, so it is not suitable for hiking. The pool is very small, unusable. Also, around the hotel nor nearby, there are no other facilities, shops, restaurants, cafes ... Breakfast is very scarce and is organized in a small space in front of the reception, as in the hallway, but it will not bother staff to warn you for every two minutes that you do not wear food with you ... The only bright point is kind receptionist.

Lovely hotel in a quiet village location. Exceptionally clean throughout with comfortable beds. Staff are very helpful polite and friendly. Breakfast is continental with plenty of choices, and all fresh. The train station being just 50 metres away is very convenient, and not noisy at all. I will definitely visit again.

Lovely place, nicely refurbished, I enjoyed the ‘continental breakfast’ lots of choice and good quality. Nice beach not far, hotel is in a quiet and very nice area. Next to train station. And nice little park for walks. Can recommend, bit of a hill up down to the beach worth considering if not in reasonable physical shape
