- Kriti (9/5): -
- Gáborné (10/5): - Nagyon szép szálloda. A félpanzios ellátas pazar. Ár érték arányban nagyon jo Nem volt ilyen
- Jose Eduardo (10/5): Excelente en todo - Todo en general Nada en absoluto
- Karin (8/5): -
- Wlodzimierz (10/5): - Bardzo miły personel. Dostaliśmy w prezencie widok na morze, parking podziemny i half board. Polecam!
- Gáborné (10/5): -
- Piccolo (9/5): -
- reijo (8/5): - Jag förstår inte varför det inte använder skydd för stolsben mot golvet. Städarna och gästerna drar stolar och det hörs flera våningar. Köp möbelskydd kostar 1 euro per lägenhet, då kan få det tyst och kunna få en bättre semester. Fel rad se ovan
- Danielle (8/5): -
- Asma (8/5): -
- Karel (10/5): Ubytování a stravování na vysoké úrovni - Byli jsme velmi spokojeni jak s ubytováním, tak s polopenzí.
- Amy (10/5): - The staff were amazing especially Sergio. Who was so kind and helpfully. He really looked after us and made sure we had the best experience possible.
My daughter loved the mini disco and the spa which was a little bonus as the time we went the outside swimming pool was too cold so being able to use the indoor swimming pool was lovely.
- Juan Pedro (10/5): -
- Alvida (4/5): - Pusryčiai ir krosanai patiko. Buvome užsakę viešbutį 4 žvaigždučių, o apgyvendino mus sename korpuse (Riwo viešbutyje), kuris atitinka max 3, tai labai sugadino patirtį. Tai tikrai neatitinka kainos ir kokybės santykio. Viskas pasenę, nusidėvėję. Nenorėčiau grįžti.
- miguel (8/5): -
- Jurgita (5/5): - - Nebuvo parašyta, jog visas Spa mokamas. Nebuvo parašyta, kad skirtinguose pastatuose bus kambariai. Pusryčiai labai labai šiaip sau.
- Fernando (8/5): -
- Davina (10/5): -
- Daniel Yanes (7/5): -
- José Eduardo (7/5): - Muy amplio La ducha muy vieja y te tenías que pegar a la pared para que te cayera el agua
- José Antonio (9/5): -
- Jesús (8/5): -
- Gomez Ali (10/5): - Los artistas que amenizaron el lunes 23 y 24 de febrero (chesca y Pablo) el equipo de animación y los camareros y encargados del comedor, sin atrás a los recepcionistas y las limpiadoras.
En resumen, hemos recibido del primero al último un trato extraprofesional y excepcional.
Super recomendable.
- monica (10/5): -
- Kamil (10/5): - Hotel bardzo interesujący pod względem architektonicznym, z dużą liczbą miejsc parkingowych. Pokoje są przestronne i codziennie starannie sprzątane. Obsługa miła, uprzejma i zawsze pomocna.
Na terenie hotelu znajduje się wiele atrakcji dla dzieci – sala gier oraz bawialnia, w której można zostawić dziecko pod opieką animatorów. Wjazd na teren obiektu jest strzeżony przez prywatną ochronę, co zapewnia dodatkowe poczucie bezpieczeństwa.
Wyżywienie urozmaicone i smaczne – każdy może najeść się do syta. Dużym atutem jest również bliskość pięknej, szerokiej, piaszczystej plaży oraz szybki dojazd z lotniska w Maladze. Brak zastrzeżeń.
- J-J (10/5): Pekny a veľký hotel - Personál príjemný hlavne vždy na raňajkách a tie nemali chybu.
- Anota (10/5): -
- Varga Katalin (10/5): Szuper! - A reggeli, és a vacsora kiváló volt. Nagyon kedves mosolygós segítőkész személyzet! Csak jót tudok írni!
Amit szeretnék külön megköszönni, hogy kértem ha lehetne, korábban foglalhatjuk el a szobánkat, mivel a repülőgépünk reggel érkezett meg, és amikor a szállásra értünk, meglepetésemre már rendben volt a szoba, így fel is mehetünk lepihenni, mert éjjel utaztunk. Ez nagyon jól esett, és hálás vagyok érte. Utólag is Köszönöm szépen. Nem tudok ilyent írni!
- Carlos (10/5): - Las instalaciones Acceso a la playa
- MOULIN (9/5): - Hôtel grandiose. Repas sous forme de buffets variés. Personnel hyper souriant et avenant. Très grande chambres. Peut être l'insonorisation des chambres et qu'il n'y ait pas une piscine extérieure de chauffer pour les enfants.....
- Miriam (7/5): -
- Pilar (10/5): -
- Arsen (5/5): Требует перемен обновлений в ремонте самое прекрасно в этом отеле охрана при везде - Фото и реальность не соответствует Обслуживание и настрой персонала в общем нет лояльности совсем
- Ruta (8/5): - Very nice staff, excellent location. Spacious room, nice balcony. Quite outdated facilities, at least of our room. A kettle would be nice in the kitchen, never seen a kitchen without a kettle in any hotel or rented apartment before 🙂
- Azadeh (8/5): -
- Gaurav (4/5): - Is that a very big scale Food quality was below average and the maintenance was brought up to the Mark
- Peixoto (10/5): Excelente a todos os níveis. - O pequeno almoço era excelente. As restantes refeições também. A localização do hotel é excelente. Não há nada que não tenhamos tenhamos gostado.
- Florjana (9/5): -
- Nick (8/5): Top vakantie! - Faciliteiten en uitstraling was perfect Bij all inclusieve verwacht ik ook all inclusive. Maak de slushpuppys dan ook gratis
Dat scheelt een aantal teleurgestelde kinder gezichten
- Ruben (9/5): Formidable -
- Jose (8/5): Muy bien - Lo que más nos gustó fue el trato del personal del hotel, la verdad que fueron súper amables, atentos y divertidos en todo momento. Las camas deberían de renovarlas. Se notan los muelles y acabas con la espalda un poco dolorida.
- Ricardo (7/5): - Animação é os animadores Alimentação
- Joy (5/5): Ceap and cheerful hotel without the cheap - The pool was great and staff were really good The rooms were tired looking and wall paper hanging of the wall by pool toilets
- Dina (5/5): -
- Kawthar (9/5): -
- Kurt (4/5): - beds were like sleeping on a boxspring and I've had my bike flare up since sleeping a week on it
- Elena (4/5): - La ubicación malísima, la comida peor y los espectáculos nocturnos pésimos
- Natascia (10/5): piacevole - Noi siamo stati al Polinesia Resort che e' molto ben organizzato come gli altri due hotel del complesso Holiday World Resot ( che sono accessibili ed intercomunicanti) . Una comoda navetta permette di raggiungere gli atri due hotel ed il parco acquatico . Nel ristorante centrale si mangia molto bene e ogni sera c'e' una serata a tema , il cibo e ricco e vario, ci sono piu' bar e nei pressi delle piscine si puo' usufruire di un servizio fast food se non si vuole pranzare al ristorante.
Alla Reception il personale e' gentilissimo, noi ci siamo tovati benissimo con Arianna , professionale e molto disponibile ad ogni nostra richista. Anche Carlos e' stato molto carino e gentile.
- Maria (8/5): - El colchón
- Ruben (5/5): Verdadero timo - Parque acuatico La limpieza sobretodo.. hemos matado 2 cucarachas gigantes y muchísimas arañas dentro de la habitación.
La comida podía mejorar mucho.. hay muy poca variedad, insípidos, etc
- Reyes Barrientos (7/5): buena - me gusto todo en general no te repone agua en abitacion y yo iba todo incluido
- Erika (10/5): Como en la naturaleza - Las plantas, árboles y cascadas dentro del hotel.

- Angel (5/5): Mejorable - La parte exterior era impresionante: cascadas, zona de tortugas, había peces, un puente que atraviesa el lago, vegetación, estaba muy bien decorado de navidad y tiene muchas instalaciones. El baño de la habitación tenía baño y ducha. Había actuaciones todos los días. El buffet es muy completo, y un espectáculo para los ojos. La habitación no estaba limpia, los muebles se veían muy usados y poco higiénicos, la iluminación era muy pobre y había que tener siempre la luz encendida que iluminaba muy poco también, la habitación daba al parking no al mar, los utensilios de cocina no estaban limpios, en el suelo había muchas pelusas y las camas hacían mucho ruido, con un niño de dos años la verdad que esto deja mucho que desear. El ultimo día no nos hicieron la habitación, pese a avisarlo. El spa nos costó una hora 48 euros y nos dijeron que mejor que nuestro hijo no lo usara por si se le irritaba la piel (lo usamos y no le pasó nada), el spa hay que cogerlo con un día de antelación, sino no entras. Había peluquería pero no peluqueros, no proporcionan albornoz para el spa, solo toalla. La zona de juegos para los niños es previo pago de 4-6 € (no recuerdo exactamente)por lo que no la llegamos a usar.
El chico de recepción con el que hicimos check-in creo que era nuevo porque no nos llegó a explicar los horarios de restaurante ni de actividades...No nos cobró la estancia al check in y nos dejaron una nota en la habitación.
- Christophe (8/5): Hors saison et pour un passage - Emplacement, calme hors saison Nourriture , trop industriel sans goût , vaut mieux moins mais bon
- E3989QAemmah (4/5): Not open in December - We booked this hotel for Christmas but we thought something was off as it seemed the outside was closed. We booked through a travel agent online. I queried it with them and they just suggested to book another hotel. They never said why but we saw on Facebook a few weeks after that the hotel was closed from 10th December.. Good thing we had instincts but even the travel agent never told us it was closed should not have allowed to have been booked at all. Other people might not be as cautious as we were.

- Jose Christopher (9/5): Comida muy muy mala - Perfecto La comida del bufé una auténtica basura , comida de perros
- Enrique (7/5): -
- Ana Belen (8/5): Estancia fabulosa - Todas las instalaciones son muy buenas, habitacion, espacios, spa, piscina, restaurantes, personal del restaurante excepcional Lo que menos me gustó es la poca variedad en las comidas principales. Había mucha variedad en postres pero pocas opciones en carne y pescado.
- Natalia (10/5): Muy bueno - Es un lugar encantador No poder disfrutar de los demás
Complejos del local.

Rooms cleaned and towels changed every day (bonus) most places dont do full cleans every day
Staff all very nice The location it’s all up hill and has nothing roundabout
Buses 10 min walk from hotel, train station 25/30 min walk from bus stop near hotel. Bus & train take u to all different resorts which is good.
- Manu (8/5): -
- Helga (6/5): Es ging - Abgelegen; Hotel ist für Familien mit Kindern geeignet Lage zu abgelegen; Spa überfüllt mit Kindern; Teilweise muss einiges renoviert werden - Dusche/Badewanne
- Dombrovska (10/5): Отличный отель, достойный сервис, комфортный отдых, независимо о времени года и погодных условий!!! - Отель очень понравился. Приезжаем сюда уже не первый раз. Независимо от погоды или время года, всегда отличный сервис и отдых. Нам достаточно недели, чтобы восстановить свои ресурсы, которых не хватает из за быстрого темпа жизни. Очень дружелюбный персонал поможет решить или организовать ваш отдых. Всегда можно поучаствовать в мероприятиях для отдыхающих. Есть бассейн, сауна и много еще чего для родителей с детьми. Панорамный вид на море и тишина действуют как бальзам для снятия стресса. Конечно рекомендую всем посетить этот комплекс отелей, они каждый раз удивляют нас по новому, но главное мы получаем в полном объеме то, ради чего приезжаем - полноценный отдых! Благодарим весь персонал!!!
Питанием остались довольны. Преимущественно ели рыбу и морепродукты, выбор превзошел наши ожидания. Богатый, разнообразный выбор сыров и мясных изделий. Изобилие фрукт и овощей. Очень понравилось мясное блюдо, которое просто таяло во рту. Отдых быстро закончился!!!
- Jose Eduardo (10/5): - La gran variedad y calidad de comida Todo excelente
- Ferdaouss (9/5): -
- Tamara (8/5): Perfecto para familias - La suite es como un apartamento, maravillosa! La comida del Buffet de calidad y variada y el personal muy atento y agradable.
Para repetir! Habían hormigas en la habitación.
- Kati (8/5): Ok paikka perheen helppoon lomailuun - Avarat tilat, hyvä ruoka, lapsille paljon ihmeteltävää. Siiderit eivät sisältyneet all-inclusiveen, punaviini hanasta jääkylmää. Uima-altaissa ei lämmitystä. Huonesiivoukseen ei kuulunut lattian lakaisua (hiekanjyvät tarttuivat jalkoihin). Varpusia ruokasalissa (leipä ja maissiastioissa). Ilmastointia ei pystynyt säätämään. Äänieristys huoneissa todella huono, ilmastointilaitteen tasainen hurina onneksi peitti muut äänet alleen. Lasten leikkitila sisällä oli pettymys.
- Ana (9/5): Volveremos - Nos gustó todo Nos gustó todo
- Eva (8/5): Családi nyaralás - A személyzet nagyon kedves és segítőkész.
A hotelszoba kényelmes és jól felszerelt.
A büfé reggeli változatos, itt mindenki talál magának megfelelő ételt. ( Mindenki, aki nem azért érkezik, hogy mindenben hibát találjon) A szobalányok munkája egy kicsit igényesebb is lehetne.

- Nitin (8/5): I stayed at Holiday World Resort to celebrate my 40th birthday and overall had a really good experience. The property is - I stayed at Holiday World Resort to celebrate my 40th birthday and overall had a really good experience. The property is absolutely massive, the food was great, and the location worked perfectly — close to Malaga city centre, the beach, and even a casino next door. The staff were friendly, and the rooms were comfortable.
That said, there were a few surprises, mainly around resort facilities being closed for winter and some limitations with the gym and spa. Still, I enjoyed my stay and would happily return.

👍 Pros
• Great overall experience — fantastic for a relaxed holiday or special occasion.
• Convenient location — not too far from Malaga city centre.
• Beach very close by — easy access.
• Casino next door — nice bonus for entertainment.
• Huge property — lots of space, feels like a proper resort.
• Food was very good — plenty of options and good quality.
• Friendly and helpful staff — good service throughout.
• Rooms were decent — comfortable and clean enough for a pleasant stay. Resort facilities were closed for winter (from 1st November)
• This wasn’t clearly mentioned anywhere during booking.
• It’s important for guests to know because many activities are unavailable.
• Gym is very basic
• Small space with just dumbbells and a few cardio machines.
• Don’t expect a full fitness centre.
• Spa requires extra payment
• €20 per person, and they make you buy a compulsory swimming cap. I was given a cheap wine which we didn’t open - but appreciate the gesture. Would have been better to receive a complimentary spa entry instead.
• Parking is huge but almost always full
• Despite a large parking lot, spaces were hard to find.
• Some corner areas were available, but it gets crowded.
