The pool area and reception spotlessly clean. Be aware this is a very large complex so reception area (the only indoor area to relax after dinnner) did feel like grand central station with lots checking in and checking out. Not enough places to sit. The hotel facilitates conferences and events so can be noisy and very busy. I felt there were just too many people for the facility space they had. The pool area at the front was full all day and people queued at the restaurant in the evening. This surprised me as we were low season outside of holidays yet in April the place was packed with kids. Not a problem for a family hotel but I feel Barcelo marketed their hotel on their website as a relaxed environment, a place to kick back in. Be aware this is not the case. It was chaos most of the time at the pool. We all like to have fun but as two friends travelling without children it didn’t make for the holiday we thought we would get. That’s not the reason for just 4 stars. You drink out of plastic at the pool-this is understandable but I don’t want to drink out of scratched plastic in the restaurant. We paid for the balanese beds at the pool whilst other people didn’t. Shower hot/cold That’s the grumble done, positives the staff are genuinely friendly and attentive. My junior suite was huge and kept spotless by housekeeping. The grounds are well kept and it right opposite the beach. You are at one of the furthest points to central Torremilinos but we walked and used taxis.

My room while very comfortable with lovely balcony and sea view was very small. The food was excellent and the staff fantastic. Between 9pm and 11.30pm every night was a very loud hotel party on the stage just below my room. They are supposed to finish at 11pm but often go overtime. While they are providing excellent entertainment for guests it is just some small annoyance if you want a quiet night. The shower was great. Tv was great.

Short taxi ride from the airport, easy train links to local attractions, great food and clean. We've stayed at hotels with bigger and more interactive kids clubs but the effort staff make for the evening mini disco is great! Overall, good value for money.

Lovely hotel!

What a lovely hotel! We had an All Inclusive package and it was great. The food was probably the best I’ve ever had in an all inclusive - really varied and plentiful. There was a really good range of drinks included too, all branded spirits and good cocktails. The staff were lovely and the hotel was impeccably clean and well-maintained.

This was my second time staying at Occidental Torremolinos Playa, and it was just as amazing as the first! The hotel is modern, clean, and ideally located right by the beach. The food was varied and delicious, with something for everyone. I loved the pool area—relaxing and well-maintained, It’s the perfect place for a sunny, stress-free holiday.
