Super

Liked:I am just returned from a lovely holiday in Malaga, Spain, at the Sahara Sunset. Check-in was quick, the staff were wonderful and the location is just perfect. Hotel and pool area is superbly clean. The pools are fantastic, and there are events for both children and adults every day. The hotel supermarket has everything you need and is very reasonably priced! The apartment was great—they thought of everything when we arrived. There were sachets of tea and coffee, sugar, dishwasher tablets, washing machine pods, cloths and a sponge to clean. There is a large deck with a table and four chairs, plus two big sun loungers. The sofa bed is incredibly comfortable, possibly a king-size, with two extra pillows and two sheets provided. You can rent beach or pool towels for €8 per week or €2 per day. Highly recommend

Fantastic stay at Sahara Sunset!

Liked:I just got back from a vacation in Malaga Spain at the Sahara Sunset. The check in was swift, the staff was amazing, the location is perfect! Our two bedroom unit was looking out onto the Mediterranean Sea, with a glimpse of the parking lot. We loved this because parking is tough if you rented a car. The Manager, Alexandra, was truly amazing! She helped plan trips, invited us to a member gathering with champagne, and before our week was over - I felt like we were the best of Friends! I recommend this resort to everyone! Pools are great, daily events are great, restaurant is great and this is all within walking distance to the beach and train station if you choose to use the train. We took a driving day trip to Rhonda which was wonderful! We took a train day trip to Malaga for a walking food tour which was amazing. We then caught the bus to visit two very distinct towns north of Malaga which were amazing as well. This resort is top notch - get a reservation if you can, it will NOT disappoint you!

Avoid if possible!!!! I would NOT recommend.

Liked:In all my years of holidaying I've never complained or requested a room change until we stayed at the Sahara Sunset. Upon arrival the room we were allocated was absolutely NOTHING like the photos online. I immediately returned to reception to request a room change but was told that this was not possible as no other rooms were available and to try again the next morning. At 9am the following morning I returned to request a room change again and was told again no other rooms were available and they would contact me if one became available. At this point I was quite upset as I felt we'd been mislead and our holiday was ruined. I'd paid almost £5000 for a family of 5 for 10 days and we were stuck in an apartment across the road from the actual hotel and nowhere near any amenities. In addition there were bars on every window and the balcony was facing the street where everyone walking past could see right in. It was also very dark and dingy and views of rubble and a storage area. Eventually after contacting EasyJet we got moved but I had to PAY for a room change out of my own pocket!!! I was told by reception staff that the pictures online are for illustration only and not all rooms are the same so don't be fooled into thinking you're staying somewhere that looks like the photos. I was also told that I should have requested an upper floor as all ground floor apartments have bars on all of the windows and made to feel like it was my fault! Very disappointed and wouldn't NOT recommend this hotel. You can see from the photos below the "lovely" views from the apartment windows!
