We loved our stay here, with our best friends.(4 adults). The views of the Mediterranean Sea and the mountains surrounding Benalmádena were spectacular! Pools were not all ready for swimming, but we visited early in May. We did use one of them, which was fine. We appreciated use of a grocery cart, and found a well- stocked grocery store, just a 5-minute walk away.(Mercadona). The beach was beautiful, and just across the street. There was lots of construction going on right in front of Miate 2, which was noisy at times, but we couldn't see it, from the 12th floor! That was great! The bus ran frequently, close to our accommodation, which was very convenient. The train station was a steep 20-20 minute walk behind our accommodation, and we recommend taking to taxi, to this location. Taxi fares are very reasonable, with a taxi stand right on the corner!
