Aloha Gardens by Vacation Care

I would never stay there again, we could get much sleep as there where parties all night long every night. Not suitable if your looking for a quiet stay or if you have young children. We where very upset with the lack of rules on noise after hours and we would never ever stay there again.

Aloha Garden apartments are spacious and are quite well equipped however if you are going as a big group (i went with five other girls) there was only enough hot water for about three people and the rest had to wash using cold water...it takes about an hour to heat up so depends on how desperate you are to have a shower..you might want to wait till morning..also the beds are quite springy and noisy so not too comfortable... Location wise not too bad..althought we did have to go everywhere by taxi...its about €7 to Puerto Banus from outside the reception and about €13 to Marbella city centre...Back to Malaga airport we booked a private transfer from Aloha and that cost €150 and the journey took just under an hour.

We went to aloha gardens for 3 nights, we booked it as a hen party of 8 and had an amazing time! On arrival the receptionist could not have been anymore helpful if she tried. We had a lovely 3bed apartment, I still can not believe the value for money. Will definitely return and recommend the bar next door (living room) for drinks and food.

Great location, big apartments and good value for money. Only bad thing is that late check out was not avavliable

Check out was at 10.30, which we felt to be fairly early given our room was not ready until 4.30pm. In addition, if you are staying with a large group there was not really enough hot water to go round. The pools were quiet and the upkeep of the hotel good and a convenient location for Puerto Banus

Nice quiter place. Be sure you came between 10am-7 pm Otherwise you may see Reception door locked. No Internet on premisses nor restaurant. Kitchen well equiped. Nice apartment with lot space and nice views from upper terrace.

The Aloha Gardens is a very nice place for young and old, with an indoor heated pool, hot-tub and beautiful grounds. There is ample free car parking at the front of the hotel. The Apartment was clean , spacious and comfortable, with great views of the fireworks displays from the rooftop of the apartment on NYE. There are many nice restaurants within walking distance of the hotel, and there is a supermarket nearby also for convenience. However the hotel may be difficult to find for tourists.The hotel is off the beaten track ( which is good too!!) I would suggest a rental car is needed for anyone staying in this area of Puerto banus/Marbella

Difficult to find this hotel as Spain has not heard of road signs and many roundbaouts have confusing exits.

Conveniently located in the Golden mile of La Costa del Sol and at a stone's throw from Puerto Banus. Quick access by car to motorway, restaurants, shops and beaches. The apartment is within a lovely self-contained development comprising of gardens, swimming pools (one of which is indoor, convenient for winter). The staff was attentive and were quick to respond to our needs for our infant (high chair and travel cot) even though it at our last minute request. We more than likely to stay here again when we go back to Marbella in the near future.

We stayed in a two bedroom self catering apartment within the secure accommodation of Aloha Gardens which was well appointed, spacious and well equipped. The kitchen had washing machine and dish washer as well as microwave and electric oven and hob in a self contained room adjoining the lounge dining room. Ample cutlery, plates, glasses and utensils were all to hand. The spacious lounge had TV and DVD with access to both local and satellite channels. Unfortunately the sofa was extremely uncomfortable, but then who wants to sit in watching TV when you’re in Spain. The bedroom had good storage space for clothing and the double bed was very comfortable. Like many Spanish properties the sound insulation was not good so expect to hear the people in the apartment above when they move around and the sound of water flushing through the pipe works during the night. The grounds are exceptionally well maintained (manicured) and a pleasure to walk around, once you have got your bearings for the different levels and areas of the large complex. Whilst it was a bit cold for the outdoor pool there is a good size indoor pool, with clean warm water located on the far side of the complex. The only real disappointment was the lack of the advertised gymnasium. There is a decent sized room, but no gym equipment. We were told that this had all been removed and the room was now being used for local keep fit classes. This was most annoying when one of the reasons for choosing this complex was the availability of this facility. There is a very large and secure underground car park with nominated parking spaces for each of the apartments. Again a big benefit if it means keeping your hire car off the local streets with the opportunity for parking damage. There are good local restaurants catering for majority of tastes with well stocked supermarkets if you choose the self catering route. Overall we were very pleased with the complex. The staff are friendly and helpful and contribute to a well run and high quality secure holiday accommodation.
