Las Palmeras Affiliated by FERGUS Mini-hotel

To start, the ongoing building works were not disruptive at all, figured I should mention that first for people looking at current reviews. Staff hospitality was excellent. Throughout the stay, the staff were brilliant, and always seemed happy to fill our requests, helping us get fresh towels, quick taxis and first aid help when required. The gentleman who was responsible for pool side activities (which we didn’t know were available) was incredible. The highlight of our trip was actually a poolside water polo game at the hotel, where this employee wrangled a bunch of grown men and put them in little hats before letting them loose. I went to the bar and came back to everyone shouting my normally introverted husband’s name to pass the ball to them. This employee not only learned everyone’s names, but was able to encourage activities for the typically reluctant adults resulting in absolute hilarity. He had a gaggle of children following him around, so was clearly a hit with them too (and, i assume, the children’s parents who were able to relax by the pool). We came here after searching for a cheap, last minute deal and had low expectations. The hotel is bog standard in terms of rooms, the beds are not luxury but also not uncomfortable. Rooms are kept clean, and housekeeping were efficient and fast. The shower head we had was a bit wobbly, but had great pressure. Although by the main *****, noise inside the room was not a problem at all. We were able to check in early (noon), despite their 3pm check in time, which we were happy about. We entered a spacious room with a large balcony overlooking the ocean (despite not paying for sea view). The included breakfast was a massive buffet with fresh food being swiftly produced and served - it was good food. The drinks were really good too.

My son and I stayed at the Las Palmeras in August 2025. The room was spacious and clean, as was the bathroom. We had quite a large balcony too. The breakfast was good, and they have English fry up type options along with a more European continental alternatives. The location of this hotel is perfect as it’s right opposite the harbour and near the local bars and restaurant. We went to the entertainment one night where they had karaoke on which was a good laugh. I can’t recall the entertainers name but he was an English lad with great energy and a good sense of humour. The drinks at the swimming pool were fairly priced and the staff friendly. Some parts of the hotel, particularly the hallways to access the rooms are really dated and need refurbishment. Personally I don’t go on holiday to marvel at hotel interior design but if you do, this hotel may not be for you and they are building another hotel next to it at the moment so there is noise at times but it didn’t really bother me. We spent our days on day trips. I’d definitely recommend the Costa Water Park if you have children. The train line is decent and cheap and Torremolinos is worth a visit. There are plenty of shops there and Aqualand water park was worth a visit (maybe bring your own food if there are a few of you as it’s a bit of a rip off there) Overall, my son and I had a fantastic holiday. We ate out twice a day and the cost in local bars and restaurants was great value. We liked the burgers in the St Patrick’s Irish pub and the day time staff there, especially Antonella and Martin were great. Like I said, the hotel does need doing up but such a great location for what we paid. I’d visit again.

We’ve stayed at this hotel 3 times now and enjoy ourselves every time! The rooms are clean and freshened up every time if you would like them to be. The food being offered is very nice and very well cooked with PLENTY of variety, everyone is catered for, the staff in the food hall are mostly polite when you speak to them but a certain few I tried to avoid as they didn’t look happy to be there and one even let us know he wasn’t impressed with the way a family had left their table. The bar staff I cannot fault! They are incredibly friendly, very good at their jobs and always very efficient( the prices are great too. The poolside/ night time entertainment is the reason we return, Connor and his team are just brilliant both fluent in English and Spanish makes it a very comfortable setting for all, Connor goes out of his way everytime to make sure my children are included in all of the activities, he comes and finds them in the morning to offer them to go to kids club, he makes my children’s holiday. Connor also provides brilliant night time activities, he is very funny and makes you feel very comfortable to get involved in the entertainment. As I said he is the main reason we return with how well he has treated us. The hotel all round is good and very well located. No it’s not the ritz, but if you’re working on a budget then this is the place for you. We will 100% be back in the future!

Amazing hotel centre to everything you could ask for rooms were spot on staff where amazing I travel to this hotel alone and the staff couldn't of done anymore to make me feel comfortable. Connor is absolutely amazing at what he does. He is a joy to be around fantastic hotel.
