What guests think

Across recent reviews, Hotel Alay - Adults Only Recommended is praised for its excellent location by the marina and beach, ample pool areas with plenty of loungers, and generally friendly staff creating a relaxed, adult-focused atmosphere.

However, multiple guests report noise from nearby roadworks, nightlife or on-site events, as well as dated bathrooms, limited storage in rooms, and occasional cleanliness or sewage odour issues. Breakfast is frequently described as good with variety, while dinner and pool-bar food draw more mixed feedback, and the dining room can be loud. Extras like evening entertainment, dog-friendly policies and abundant sunbeds are appreciated, though parking can be costly or disrupted, and sea-view rooms on lower floors may not meet expectations. A practical choice for adults, balancing good value and facilities with occasional noise and dated elements.

Jeg valgte hotellet fordi det var adults only og dermed roligt. Men der var larmende byggeri lige ved siden af, larmende unge teenagere fra fodboldhold og en spisesal som virkede til at forstærke frem for at dæmpe larm. Hotellet ligger godt lige ved lystbådehavnen men hele kysten fra Malaga til Fuengirola er plastret til i beton med sparsom natur. Meget flot natur hvis man cykler op til Mijas eller Alhaurin el Grande men det er 10 - 15 km væk. Hotellet reklamerer med parkering men havde ingen pga byggearbejdet på vejen udenfor. God frisk frugt, brød og pålæg til morgenmad men kaffen er lavet på kaffe koncentrat, fremfor friske bønner. Renligheden var generelt ok, men trappen til værelserne blev ikke fejet, endsige vasket i de ti dage jeg var der. Meget hjælpsomt personale.

The Parking was a Joke, you pay 15 euro a day for your car, To get in the the parking was no problem exept for two days i needed a new ticket, but to get out of the parking was a fars! The camera dident recognise the car, then you needed to back up, get out of the car and go in and tell the receptionist to open the gate and let me out. and i wasent alone with this problem...

Great location for walking to the marina and beach. Rooms (we had 2), though the bathrooms were a little dated, were kept beautifully clean and organized by housekeeping even when we didn’t leave til later in the day. Staff were mostly friendly, except one rather abrupt front desk receptionist, but Rafa, also at front desk, was FANTASTIC. As someone also in the hotel business is happily try to steal him for my small hotel if I could! We had a couple of minor issues but he went beyond the call to sort it out. The pools always had loungers available, no need to stress! Rooftop pool is very shallow but the water temperature very pleasant. Food at the pool bar was only ok. Smoothies didn’t seem to be fresh fruit. There was a bit of noise from roadworks but it wasn’t terrible though it did ruin the peace at the rooftop pool a couple of days. Overall a nice enough hotel if a little characterless.

We stayed for 11 nights for a relaxing holiday. The hotel was comfy and the reception staff very friendly. The bedrooms were modern however had little storage which made hanging up clothes difficult when staying for longer than 5 nights. The bathroom and shower were ok however there was mould on the silicone and on both shower heads. I cleaned the shower with a towel however I believe this should be done by the hotel daily. The pools were good and there were enough beds over the 3 levels. The pools however also were mouldy and require attention. Hotel bar reasonable priced with a great selection of drinks

The entrance and lobby at this hotel are simply gorgeous, a real attention to detail makes this a welcoming environment. The rooms are spacious and clean, and although the balconies are small, they do provide a lovely view. The solarium area and sunbathing spaces are ample and both pools were refreshing. The pool bar has lots of options and a nice food menu. Overall, having stayed in 5 or 6 hotels in the vicinity, Hotel Alay has proved to be my favourite and actually great value for money too.

Clean modern hotel. Great location. Refreshing to stay in a hotel where sun beds were readily available whatever the time of day! Only slight problem was lack of storage space in the rooms. There were no drawers and limited shelf space. Friendly staff, good food and a pleasant snack bar. The nightly discos were held outside and were great fun. We would not hesitate to return.

My husband and I visit Benalmadena often, but have never stayed at this hotel. We are not traveling with children so we liked the "adults only" option. The room and hotel were very clean and the staff was very nice. Since we have never stayed at the marina, we asked the front desk a few basic questions about the ferry and cycle rentals. The front desk did not have any basic knowledge of anything around the marina. We asked more than one person basic questions and no one could answer our questions. (in fact, they didn't even know there was a ferry). They had a dancing performance one night that I thought was entertaining. I would recommend seeing it. The only real complaint I have about this location is our view. We paid extra to have sea view. Our room was facing the sea, but it was so low to the ground and just above the pool slightly that we could barely see the sea above the pool. We didn't feel there was any privacy or much of a view. They told us at the desk that we would have had to specifically ask when booked that we wanted a higher level. I guess we just assumed "sea view" meant "sea view". We would have done better getting partial view of sea and being higher up and saved the money. We did like the gym and breakfast was good, but I doubt we would spend the money to stay here again.

Trevlig vistelse på hotell med bra läge. Nära till strand och många restauranger. Frukosten var helt ok, gillade att det fanns möjlighet att sitta ute och äta. Bra rum, dock hade vi rum ut mot marinan vilket gjorde att det var en hel del väsen nattetid. Vi betalade extra för havsutsikt, tror det är bra att önska kvällssol då rummet i så fall skulle vara åt andra hållet med mindre ”stök” nattetid.

Egentlig bare småting å bemerke - kunne tenkt meg et glass med stett på rommet, men var bare tannglass. Ba om å få bytte det etter noen dager, da fikk jeg et til og de stod på bordet hele ferien ... Tror ikke salongbordet ble rørt på våre 13 dager, Vasken på badet ble ikke vasket der såpa ligger. Og verandaen ble aldri vasket under vårt opphold. Noen av personalet i resepsjonen kunne gjerne vært hyggeligere - dette gjelder de mannlige. Øvrig personell i bar og matsal var nok underbemannet - de "fløy som øre høner" og virket veldig stressa. Og støynivået i matsalen var skyhøyt. Ble litt overrasket over at dybden i bassenget på terrassen ikke var mer enn 89 cm. Som sagt - småting som gjorde at dette hotellet ikke fikk full pott fra meg. Men vi hadde 13 fine dager.

I realise I could have asked to move rooms but as there were barking dogs in , probably the best sea view room, it wasn’t worth the risk. Unfortunately the food is very mediocre. Excellent location.

Stayed 13 nights

Egentlig bare småting å bemerke - kunne tenkt meg et glass med stett på rommet, men var bare tannglass. Ba om å få bytte det etter noen dager, da fikk jeg et til og de stod på bordet hele ferien ... Tror ikke salongbordet ble rørt på våre 13 dager, Vasken på badet ble ikke vasket der såpa ligger. Og verandaen ble aldri vasket under vårt opphold. Noen av personalet i resepsjonen kunne gjerne vært hyggeligere - dette gjelder de mannlige. Øvrig personell i bar og matsal var nok underbemannet - de "fløy som øre høner" og virket veldig stressa. Og støynivået i matsalen var skyhøyt. Ble litt overrasket over at dybden i bassenget på terrassen ikke var mer enn 89 cm. Som sagt - småting som gjorde at dette hotellet ikke fikk full pott fra meg. Men vi hadde 13 fine dager.
