    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    This hotel majors in family holidays with a touch of luxury, combining swish interiors with an action-packed pool scene and a beachfront location.

    Looks-wise, the Iberostar Malaga Playa might have you thinking you’ve landed in Italy, rather than Spain. It looks like a grand lakeside villa, accessorised by archways and columns coloured in deep terracotta and ochre.

    This place has secured a prime location on the Torrox seafront. All it takes to reach the sands is a stroll past the huge pool to the edge of the grounds, where you’ll find a promenade lined with cafés, shops and restaurants.

    great Halloween week experience
    14 Nov , 2019 Piozaj, 188644
    I've just spent an enjoyable week in that hotel right during the All Saints / Halloween week. We benefited from an excellent weather which made our stay even nicer. I can sign up to all good reviews posted here already, the hotel is maybe not the newest one but it's a good value for money and it does respond to the key needs of families with children. Reflect before you choose the room that is suitable for you needs! Points in favour that I would like to stress in particular: 1) our room (bright and spacious suite on 6th floor with lovely seaview), 2) passionate and enthusiastic animation team who prepared spectacular Halloween-themed shows and activities for kids and adults 3) access to a pleasant seafront promenade with bars and restaurants and the beach. 4) Friendly staff and good quality food (we stayed on a half-board option which was a good choice). On the minus, there is no baby club for children under 4 yo and no dedicated space for babies/ toddlers to play in. Overall, we would be happy to return one day.
    Stunning hotel, a faultless and high quality long weekend stay.

    An stunning hotel inside and out. The rooms are modern and in very good condition. The staff have all been amazing, polite and friendly. Everywhere is so clean and tidy, the food in the restaurant superb. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.
    Not what was expected

    Hi can I start by saying the rooms are lovely. The staff are very friendly all through the hotel. The rooms are spotless. The restaurant has got a good array of food and you would have to be picky not to find anything to your liking. The out side bar has got nothing as for food it is small and the food does not look appealing. The other pool bar is closed I presume due to bad winds. They advertise daytime entertainment! If you consider stretching in the morning and bingo in the afternoon as entertainment so be it. I don't as the weather is bad some inside activities maybe should be considered. There should be a couple of more activities such as French bowls maybe twice a day. The outside area is well maintained but VERY cramped it is not big enough for the amount of people that come to the hotel. Would I come back to this hotel. No.

    We are currently staying in this hotel the start of the holiday wasn’t the best with a lot of spainish pushing and shouting all the time the man at reception who check us in was not friendly (didn’t seem to like English) we asked about children’s entrainment and it’s stopped now so nothing on until 9:30pm which is hard keeping the little one up until that time with no entertainment. Food good and room clean.
    Very nice hotel and staff

    This was our second visit to an Iberostar hotel and as with our previous visit to the Cristina Hotel in Palma we were pleased with our choice. This hotel is perhaps a little more grand in terms of the entrance foyer and similarly has just over 400 rooms. The Malaga Playa has a slightly better seafront/promenade location which also makes for a pleasant 15 to 30 minute flat walk each way to a lighthouse on the left of the hotel. The main asset which Iberostar hotels seem to have is that they maintain a very bright, friendly and encouraging staff group. They all work very effectively to provide all the ingredients of a good holiday. The double room we had was in a good state of repair and had a good/generous bed with ample storage. The bathroom had a shower over a shallow bath and a good sized, well lit mirror, along with a toilet and bidet. Our room came with a reasonably sized balcony which caught the sun in the morning and the room seemed to be reasonably sound proofed. The food and entertainment was very good, the maintenance and cleaning was to an almost exceptional standard. The Torrox beach front was typically commercial in nature but only what you might well expect on the Mediterranean. Our Jet2 transfer was around a half hour from the airport being the first drop off point on the route. Many thanks to all the staff for another enjoyable holiday. Oh, and yes we will consider visiting another Iberostar hotel in the future.
