Beautiful resort, great employees, perfect for families. Nice design and elaborate landscaping.
Parking situation is a little awkward. Beach is small and rocky, but very private. Location is quiet. Apartments are modern and comfortable.

Fantastic stay
This was our second time staying here and again we had a fantastic time. Staff were all friendly and helpful whether it was reception, restaurant or activity planners. The resort is clean and well maintained, the apartment was spacious and clean. We are a family of 7 so it can be difficult finding places to accommodate us comfortably! We had breakfast each morning and it was excellent, lots of choice so something for everyone. We would definitely return.

Great location and amenities. The weather was a bit cool so we mostly used the indoor pool wich was great. Great family hotel. The 2 bedrooms suite was even larger than I anrticipated with a fully furnished kitchen and large dining room and living room. However I have to say that the beach area is far from great, with lots of large rocks to cross to access the water directly in front of the hotel.

Luv’n Costa Del Sol
Are an amazing property in the Mirabella Spain area. Great rooms with excellent bedding and linens. Great fitness center along with 3 pools, 3 hot tubs and 1cold plunge tub. Property has a great restaurant “Soleras” and a lively pool bar with great happy hour events. Property is close to all the major, southern Spanish cities And Gibraltar is only an hour and 10 minutes to the west with its great tax free shopping district!

Great family holiday, Solera awful sorry.
We are quite familiar with this hotel, but for those who aren't, here are a few tips:
1) The hotel and grounds are impeccably maintained.
2) The rooms have a classic Spanish style (slightly dated) but are very well equipped.
3) The pools are excellent with plenty of options.
4) We were very satisfied with the self-catering apartments.
5) Everyone had a fantastic time.
However, the restaurant, Solera, is a downside. The breakfast was among the worst we've experienced in a hotel. We tried it once and were extremely disappointed.
Despite this, it shouldn't deter you from staying here because you can BBQ outside in the BBQ area, and there are shops nearby (Aldi is within walking distance). If you rent a car, there are plenty of activities in nearby towns like Estepona and Marbella.
Overall, it was an excellent trip (again). Addressing the lack of a decent restaurant would make it perfect.
