4-star all-inclusive beachfront hotel with 5 swimming pools in Torremolinos

All-Inclusive Offerings and Dining

The hotel is an all-inclusive property that covers meals and on-site amenities, including branded drinks like Gordons Gin and Larios Gin. There are 3 restaurants on site, including La Dolce Vita Italian restaurant and the Maria Sardina Andalusian-themed restaurant, plus Pepe's Food snack bar open from noon to 18:00 serving burgers and hot dogs.

A spa and wellness centre provides full body massage, neck massage, back massage, beauty services, a steam room, and fitness classes in the gym. The pools are saltwater with a constant depth of 1.2 meters, and the lifeguard enforces a policy disallowing ball games in the infinity pool.

“Hotel Riu Costa Del Sol aims squarely for the sweet spot of an all-inclusive beach holiday, particularly for families, near Playamar Beach and only 2 km from Torremolinos; I think the multiple pools and comprehensive food selections are real advantages. It seems a solid choice, balancing convenience with kid-friendly amenities such as its kids' club and playground. It's a balanced option in a popular destination.”

a decent stay

beautiful surrounding great variety old shower empty fridge
the complex had beautiful surroundings i found the dining experience a treat every meal was delicious i enjoyed the great variety of dishes i couldn't have asked for a better stay. the entertainment staff brought so much energy to every event they made our evenings nice.
the shower was looking old in parts i noticed the shower was not cleaned well. i found the fridge in the room empty this seemed ridiculous at least have some water in there. i have stayed in other hotels with an included fridge with drinks.

Detailed Review, A Solid Choice

dining options beach location
The variety in the dining options was a definite highlight. I particularly enjoyed the Italian restaurant, it offered a pleasant change from the buffet. The hotel's location, directly on the beach, was convenient... a great asset to have.

beach location large bedroom similar food dark restaurant
The hotel's beach location was perfect. i found the bedroom large and well furnished. It was kept very clean throughout my stay.
The food was not great, it tasted very similar each day. the wine was also not nice, i thought. The restaurant felt quite dark and dingy.

Satisfactory Stay

The staff was polite. The variety of food available each day was good. The pools were nice with three heated options including one indoor.
The room requires refurbishment. The room had only two power sockets. The bath towels were small and thin.
