We had an incredible stay at the Holiday Village Costa del Sol with TUI, and it’s safe to say this hotel is made for families, especially if you have children. The pool offering was exceptional, with plenty of variety—from the toddler-friendly areas to pools for older kids and even adults! The Beach Club, just across the bridge, was a real highlight, offering stunning pools and a great atmosphere. The staff here really made our holiday special. From the chefs to the receptionists, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. But the real stars of the show were the TUI entertainment team and the crèche staff. A special shoutout to Fran, Delilah, and Cathy, who were absolutely fantastic. Our kids adored their time at the crèche, and it was clear that their days were packed with fun and engaging activities. You truly made their holiday magical, and we can’t thank you enough! The food was also a pleasant surprise! We never had a cold meal, and there was always a good variety to choose from. The themed nights were a nice touch, offering a little something for everyone’s taste. Now, onto a couple of things to consider. While the facilities are fantastic, the décor and rooms are quite dated and in need of a refresh. For a hotel aiming to maintain its 4-star rating, updating the rooms and common areas with modern décor would significantly improve the guest experience. Additionally, the arcade area could use some attention. Some of the machines were a bit outdated, and a few didn’t work properly, which was disappointing for the kids. The spa also looked like it had seen better days, and could definitely benefit from some updates to match the rest of the hotel’s offerings. A refresh and some maintenance here would go a long way in enhancing the overall experience. Lastly, we noticed quite a few hornets and wasps around the resort. While they didn’t bother us much, we did see a few people get stung, so if you’re prone to reactions, maybe pack some antihistamines just in case. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would definitely recommend this place for a fun, family-friendly getaway. This isn’t the essence of luxury, but it’s the perfect place for family fun. Thanks again to the amazing staff for making our stay so memorable!
