Grupotel Macarella Suites & Spa

Great setting, lovely manicured gardens, clean pool and loads of sun beds. We celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary here and we were given a lovely bottle of cava. Also got upgraded on arrival to a duplex apartment with a wonderful view. Really appreciate it. Breakfast also amazing choices. Would defo recommend anyone to stay here in this area.

That an ice cream/ ice lolly cost 4€ each. ... 8€ or (like £7 to me ) is a bit expensive for a mass produced branded ice cream/lolly.

Rooms very good Food very good Pool great

Maybe a few more facilities and games for children. Little bigger gym

Besides the beautiful hotel premises and pool, we were most impressed by the friendliness of staff members, be it at the reception, the service staff and the housekeepers. They always carried out all requests with a smile and efficiency. It helped of course that we speak Spanish but we observed their caring attitude in all languages. The dinner buffet varied for the main dishes and starters every day and the food was freshly prepared. To mention also the big pool, which was not too cold and very clean. In fact a whole cleaning troup looked after it in the evenings to make sure it was impeccable. Our special thanks go to all service staff from Jaen, Granada and Malaga - muchas gracias para su amabilidad.

Only one little remark - the opening coordination between the two bars were not always clear and often the bar was not open before dinner times, which was a bit of a disappointment if one wanted to have an aperitif before the evening meal. We very much enjoyed the Spanish Flamenco evening and recommend to offer more traditional events in preference to ordinary pop music singers.
