Stayed for five nights over new year. Lovely beach front apartment with a beautiful sea view. Apartment very well equipped and beds clean and comfortable. Apartment a little tired but still comfortable. Good location to reach beaches and bars and great walking along the boardwalk.

This was my third visit and it was like home from home. Without exception the staff from cleaners, maintenance, of corse Curro entertainments , Slav and all his staff are all wonderful. The pools are kept in first class condition. Smoothies in the Plaza lounge are delicious for breakfast. Food in the Plaza Beach restaurant is varied and delicious with good portion sizes. Entertainment In Plaza Beach Monday, Wednesday and Friday are superb.
The property had a lovely view overlooking the beach. It was a quiet family resort with plenty of swimming pools. There were plenty of places to eat and lovely walks on the boardwalk.
We had a lovely time at Doña Lola in Calahonda recently.The facilities were excellent exceeded our expectations.Hope to return

Great place to stay with the family, local facilities are great. I would say noise is an issue and more should be done about guest being nosiy at night past 11pm and cleaning should happen every 3/4 days.

Stayed 2 bed 2 bath which was very spacious. Comfortable beds and very clean. Beach towels provided. 2 on site restaurants.
Excellent pool area with plenty of sunbeds.
On site supermarket for essentials. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Great boardwalk in front of hotel to either walk to harbour or La Cala town. Mercadona supermarket across road.
Overall a great stay and would return
Great location and good apartments. However, the propery is "itred". Needs modernising. Also very disappointed with the apartment we were given, even though the complex was quiet and not at full occupancy. Our balcony had no view and felt very boxed in when you were seated on it. Yet, I'd booked an apartment with a sea view - it was only from the living room window, and not the balcony. Otherwise, place is clean and convenient.

Conventient for good price.
It did the job to stay close to my parents renting a condo. Beds rock hard and we had singles assuming no king available? Very late heck in time of 5pm. Checkout, no thank you for staying, how was your stay etc. Found staff not very friendly except for at the La Plaza restaurant on site. Food sub par there. ABBA show was great.
