Me and my partner wanted a few days away for the bank holiday weekend, we booked this through On the beach and once we booked it we were nervous, just because we have always gone through travel agencies.When we got to the hotel everything looked nice and I was impressed with the pool area as its right outside reception. We were upgraded to another room because ours wasn't ready (which made me nervous) but when we got to our room we were really impressed with the room. It was spacious, well decorated, clean, it had a huge double bed, dressing table, a big wardrobe with a safe in it, a big plasma TV and we had a decent size balcony that overlooked the front of the hotel and there was also a mini fridge. The bathroom was very big too and had a shower as well as a large sink with a decent size mirror, the hotel had provided two fresh towels daily and the room would thoroughly cleaned everyday. (They also provide hairdryer in the room)We had breakfast included in our package and again we were really impressed with the variety of food that was displayed, there was something for everybody (the scrambled eggs were the best) The staff were fantastic, very helpful and welcoming.Around the hotel there is plenty to do, the beach is not even a five minute walk and we both spent a lot of time there as the beach was clean and well looked after, it wasn't too busy either (I can imagine in June-August it will be packed) the sea was very clear and the scenery around us was beautiful. There are plenty of bars and restaurants to eat and drink at too, we would highly recommend the restaurants Beefeater and Aroma, we had great meals from there.There is plenty to do in the local area too, we just didn't have enough time however we did manage to go to Bioparc zoo, which was a 10 minute walk from the hotel and again we would recommend going there as it is really good and there are some beautiful animals. The local town is also a five minute walk away from the hotel and there are plenty of shops and supermarkets as well as their local train station.Overall we were REALLY impressed with the holiday and will be going back next year for longer this time.

We did not get a room overlooking the pool, which would have been the quiet rooms, even though I requested such a room. What we were given was a room on two busy roads (intersection) across from the police station, all the noise occurred late, it was awful to sleep and I was exhausted by the end of the holiday. The bed was O K, but to say it was super comfortable as other reviewers said, not true.. Also the bedding was not too good, polyester blanket that seemed to me as if it was some sort of insulation, not too good. The breakfast was ok, I liked the fresh oranges and bread rolls. I liked Roberto on the front desk, but felt the blond desk clerk was full of self importance.

The hotel staff are very welcoming and everywhere was clean and tidy. We stayed bed & breakfast and the breakfast was fine plenty of choice served 8.00 to 10.30. Close to station , town centre , beach and the zoo etc.Unfortunately we had room 102 which was directly over the kitchen/dining room and at 6.00 on 4 mornings were woken by students!!!! screaming going down stairs for their breakfast and chairs scraping along the marble floors below our beds at this time. No chance of changing rooms as full - of these b******y students.Would return but would want a high level room overlooking pool or ground floor rooms across from main building next to pool (Nos starting 5)If they could not guarantee these rooms I would want written confirmation that no "Educational Tours" were to be presentShame as I was looking forward to a relaxing week which I'm sure it would have been had it not been for these inconsiderate teenagers and their so called adult supervisors.I am sure I would have given it an excellent mark in different circumstances

Me and my girl friend decided to have a break before our two week holiday in June. To be honest I think we struck gold. After reading alot of the reviews we decided to book at Itaca as Claire knew the area and was a good base. Alot of people have named staff but I have to say every single member of staff was fantastic, customer service was 110% and this included the handy man who always had a smile and said hello. Breakfast and evening meals were limited there is no doubt BUT was always fresh and looked delicious and to be honest if there was more selection I probably would of played safe and eaten english food but instead I came to spain and ate spanish food which was amazing. We stayed in room 209 over looking the pool, it had a balcony which was a sun trap all day long, Beds were really comfy and a shame they wouldnt fit in our case to come home. Room had a TV and fitted wardrobe , nice sized bath and amazing shower, fresh towels and bedding and cleaned daily, one down side no tea making facility and no hair dryer (but this is the only down side and im been prodantic), hotel loby was immaculate and the pool its self was cleaned evey 2nd day and was kept immacultae, remember we went in April and although hot weather the pool was freeeeeeeeeeeeezing but very refreshing, a realistic 15 min walk from train station and 10 min stole to the beach , if you are going to go to Fuengirola book this hotel you will not be dissapointed unless you are a professional complainer, we made some great friends staff included and will defo be going back again.

Stayed here with my sister, mum and daughter, see review from bond babe, which is my sister's review and has already mentioned lots. Had a great stay only one rainy day but 5 very hot sunny days (they have had wettest few weeks for 65 years apparently). The pools was nice but freezing cold and there were always plenty of sunbeds,but this could be due to the time of year we were there. Had no complaints but the noise from the scraping of the wooded chairs in the dining room was awful on the tiled floor, we did bring this to the attention of the manager and suggested felt pads on the bottom of the chairs, so hopefully this will be addressed. The Hotel was spotless, beds were great so much so we struggled to get up of a morning! The food was good despite not a lot of choice for main meal but I could always find something to choose from and there was little choice for kids (I do have a very fussy 12 year old). The staff were so accommodating and friendly thou this more than made up, besides there were plenty of eating places on the doorstep and a great cake shop opposite! The staff in the dining area were always busy and I really felt for them when other guests complained endlessly. Bus stopped right outside hotel which went to Mabella for 3 euro. Big thank you to Roberto (sorry about my mum sticking her finger in your dimple- but I can see why she did!) lovely smiley Joshua and all the other staff who made our stay so pleasant. Missing you all already.....Love from Debbie, Sarah and Maria xx
