"While an overall nice property and pool, the lack of activities, nearby restaurants, and difficulty driving in and out made this a less-than-ideal property. We also had a studio for two, which I would not recommend for a longer stay, as the room was very small. And while we enjoyed the amenities, including the gym and sauna, the beach was not very good, rocky and difficult to walk along (plus nowhere to walk to to). If you are visiting the coast, I suggest finding a location closer to a city...

"The 2 bedrooms apartment are big (with 2 bathrooms). But the terraces are not very clean with the pigeons (there is a brush provided).

However there was very very very poor entertainment. No baby disco, only one show during the week. The other evenings, the only staff responsible for entertaining the guest was...

"We had an amazing stay at Las Dunas for 5 days in September. The staff were so friendly, rooms were amazing and facilities fantastic. The hotel was super chilled, away from all the noise of the city centre, which was exactly what we wanted. The only small drawback was service at the bar and restaurant which was very slow. I suspect they were under staffed which was a real shame. That being said however, I wouldn’t hesitate to go back."

"L un des plus beaux hôtels que nous avons fait dans notre voyage sur la Costa Del Sol !! Chambre avec balcon vue mer magnifique!piscine très agréable mais en septembre elle fermait à 18:00 qui à notre avis était un peu tôt compte tenu qu il faisait encore très chaud ! Personnel très sympathique et efficace parlant français !Bon buffet déjeuner! Vélos disponibles à l hôtel ! La piste en bord de mer est agréable (surtout celle du centro..WoW) et nous amène Jusqu’au centro d’Estepona en 15 minutes et se prolonge encore plus loin! À noter que la piste est quelque fois moins bien aménagé à certains endroits ! Supermercado à quelques minutes de marche !stationnement gratuit directement a l hôtel ! Les points négatifs sont pour notre part qu il n y a pas de restos autour à part un Burger King! Loin du centro pour y aller à pied mais en vélo ou voiture ça se fait bien! Et la plage est étroite en petites roches et la mer pas très belle (sargasses) pour la baignade ..! Il faut aller à la plage de la Rada du centro ou la Del Cristo. Mais la vue mer du balcon ou de la piscine est incroyable! Merci pour notre beau séjour !"
