Our stay at the Amare Beach Hotel Marbella was simply fantastic! The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the breakfast was varied and delicious. The central location made it easy to explore the city. We especially appreciated our room on the top floor, which offered breathtaking views. The welcome cocktail was a nice gesture, and the complimentary dinner on the last day was a wonderful surprise. A big shoutout to the front desk for his excellent service and friendliness. Highly recommended

“This hotel easily deserves 5+ stars!”

I’m writing this on day one of our stay as i can’t keep in how amazing this hotel is! All the staff are welcoming and friendly, nothing seems to be too much trouble.

I’m writing this on day one of our stay as i can’t keep in how amazing this hotel is! All the staff are welcoming and friendly, nothing seems to be too much trouble. We booked a Keep the Secret room with a side sea view that has excellent view of the sea, the pool area and a bit of the main street. The room is large with a balcony, big bathroom and lots of complimentary bits like toothbrushes, toothpaste, toiletries, pods for the Nespresso machine. There’s a massive TV, usb ports, kettle and big mugs for tea (which I rarely see in Spain)! Everything is kept pristine and there’s always staff around happy to help. The hotel is central and right on the beach with a beach bar that had a DJ today playing just the right music to put you in the holiday mood! Lots of sunbeds available. We haven’t tried the food and spa yet but will do tomorrow and I’m sure it’s just as fab as everything else. I cannot wait to be back!

“Lovely Beach Hotel”

Good book in at reception. Room large & very clean. Breakfast buffet was good quality, if a little hectic at times. Only ate in the Amare lounge one night on the 35 euro offer for three courses from a la carte menu. Disappointing food, & crepes were inedible. We were so glad we had only booked… more

Good book in at reception. Room large & very clean. Breakfast buffet was good quality, if a little hectic at times. Only ate in the Amare lounge one night on the 35 euro offer for three courses from a la carte menu. Disappointing food, & crepes were inedible. We were so glad we had only booked b&b. Staff in all areas were very good & friendly. Tried the rooftop bar one night, but found the music too noisy for us. In fact you could not get away from the ‘boom boom’ in public areas during the day, always surrounded by speakers, much too loud for us oldies! I think this hotel is very much a hotel for ones that like to sit around the pool or beach bar every day with daytime entertainment, & drinks which is fine if that is your thing. There is no disputing, this is a very lovely hotel, just not for us.

“Slightly disappointed”

I love Amare Marbella and have been its biggest fan since opening. I’ve visited many times, but this time it felt a bit tired. Our shower leaked, the shower tray tiling was a disgrace and the bathroom flooded every time we used the shower. When we noticed, after unpacking, it was too late for us … more

I love Amare Marbella and have been its biggest fan since opening. I’ve visited many times, but this time it felt a bit tired. Our shower leaked, the shower tray tiling was a disgrace and the bathroom flooded every time we used the shower. When we noticed, after unpacking, it was too late for us to change our room so just put up with it. The price of the hotel is too high to present the rooms anything other than perfect. The beach club is my favourite place, but again it’s tired and needs a revamp. The decking boards are uneven and a trip hazard, the wooden beds are dirty and the cushions are miscoloured and some need renewed. Some of the umbrellas are also in a bad state, some are broken and don’t work. To be fair, on our last day, the maintenance team seemed to be replacing some. The beach shower was also out of order and not working, adding to us questioning the maintenance and investment in this hotel. The beach beds are still far too close together, you can’t walk around them, making the beach at full capacity a bit claustrophobic. On our last day, whilst a few metres away having lunch in the beach bar, our towels, drinks, personal belongings, shoes and clothes were removed from the beach entirely. This has never happened before, and we were reprimanded for leaving our beach beds without telling staff where we were! We had been in the hotel for 8 days by this point, it was almost as if we didn’t matter after checkout. I’ve been at this hotel 6 times and this was news to me, there are no signs or information anywhere that I’ve ever seen to communicate these “rules”. It was humiliating. Most of the staff are fantastic, and made our holiday an amazing experience, but overall the hotel is getting a bit tired in places. p.s. check which spirits you are ordering in your drinks, some of the staff will use the most expensive brands without asking. My bar bill was checked on departure and several items were refunded.
