    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating: 3 star

    The Globales Gardenia Hotel ticks all the right boxes for a go-slow getaway. It’s got a big pool, private gardens, and a sandy beach just a couple of steps away.

    Location is the Globales Gardenia’s trump card. It’s just over the road from a mile-long stretch of beach, which is backed by a seafront promenade of bars and restaurants. Fuengirola’s busy centre is a 10-minute taxi ride away, too.

    The gardens here are a mix of swaying palms, bright pink flowers and neatly-trimmed hedges. Sunloungers are sprinkled across the lawns, so you can get some peace and quiet away from the main pool.

    Queuing at the bar worst I have ever seen

    Arrived here tuesday 29th october waited till 2 pm to get into our room which was an ample size no fridge which is unacceptable in this day and age safety deposit box 32 euros for 4 days an absolute rip off the 10 euros deposit was on top of this.Restaurant was nice and bright food was excellent but not warm enough there was 2 microwaves the specials roasts steaks etc were very nice there was even gravy at every meal time.We had pool and sea view.The grounds and pool are are very good and well maintained but flies everywhere.Free wife.The entertainment very hit and miss 3 very good male singers and a brilliant acrobat but a quiz and bingo and a show by animation team is not true entertainment.The queues tuesday Wednesday and Thursday in the entertainment lounge on an evening were very long up to 20 people in part due to cocktails on these nights there was 3 people serving and 1 would go off and collect glasses.On Friday about 100 Spanish arrived for their weekend break so that evening the lounge was packed and so was the area in front of the lounge outside the queues were now 30 people long due to the fact there was 1 person serving behind the bar and 1 collecting glasses it was absolute chaos and it was like this all night very bad management you cant tell me they didn't know how busy it was going to be so people were getting 4 drinks at a time I asked for a straw Thursday and friday to stir my bacardi and coke around and they liked to me saying there wasnt any but they were behind the bar and when I pointed this out they said they were only for cocktails.The snack bar was excellent.This hotel needs to get its act together especially behind the bar and the lack of proper entertainment every night and charging a weeks use for 4 days use of a safety deposit is unheard of and no fridge.
    False Black Friday Deals
    09 Nov , 2019 Brenda A
    We have received a -45% black Friday deal email, it is NOT a deal the prices are very similar to what we have been charged in the past discounted price around £480 to £570 all inclusive for one week, this is the normal price we have receipts from this year to prove it, Shame on you for hiking prices to provide a false discount.!
    Our Stay

    Well located property with spacious rooms with balcony and sea views. The room was welcoming with necessary facilities (exempt for only two power sockets, one in the bathroom and one under the television). The balcony was east facing which was brilliant to see the sunrise, We went down to the beach to take photos of the amazing sunset. Look out for the bull in the skyline.The walk along the promenade to the habour area is enjoyable and the Spanish definitely know how to make roundabouts more enjoyable with their decoration. For trips to local destinations the bus stop is directly outside for places such as Benalmadena and Torremolinos etc. Was impressed by the food, the salad bar, soup, various breads, cold meats and hot main meals including freshly cooked meats and fish are more than satisfactory. The sunloungers were plentiful and surprising new, which we appreciated, with lots of areas to sit in. We had a small issue shortly after we arrived that I must admit spoiled my birthday a little on the Saturday, but on Monday, the Hotel Manager, who is very professional and approachable resolved this in no time at all. We were really pleased how the rooms were cleaned every day with fresh towels. The only negative we personally found was the cost of the safe 32€ plus 10€ deposit, having stayed in hotels all over the world, an average being about 25€ I must admit this is the most expensive I have yet experienced.Overall it was a very enjoyable week.
    Over all a great clean hotel in a fantastic location.

    The entertainmant was random. The kids was the same every night with a manic lady doing the same songs with the kids (she was the staff0 You could hear her all day too playing games by the pool with the adults and kids. One night there was a male 3 singer band on from south aftrica, they were really good, but only on for less than an hour. The restauarant food was mostly outstanding, with plenty of choices and variety each night, as well as a fresh cooked option. Wine and larger fruit juice and soft drinks are on tap help yourself for all inclusive and the wine was disgusting! The lesser of the two evils was white wine topped up with tonic water! After having such great savoury options, the desserts were terrible! They look fabulous, individual in glasses, or small pieces of cake. The cake was synthetic and pretty tasteless. The labels above the puddings in the indivual choices didn't correspond at all to what was below and it was hard to really tell what it was! Cold rice pudding which i think was actually rice from earlier mixed with a bit of milk and sugar with a caramel sauce poured on top. A 'chocolate' mousse with raw undercooked cake in it? Jelly which could quite possibly cross the sea in one bounce if it were dropped! Very strange and random mousses which had no flavour. Fill up on savoury and don't be fooled!! Breakfast was lovely. There are different places to sit and sunbathe etc and the hotel is just on the sea front which is amazing!
    Great hotel in fantastic location.
