Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
Chose this hotel with trip advisor reviews. Hotel next to the marina and beach. Excellent location. Food was very good and varied. Local restaurants great for lunch with a view.
We have stayed at this fabulous hotel numerous times and just returned from another wonderful 6 night stay. Great location, service is exceptional and staff are friendly and welcoming. The Pool area is stunning, pool bar/restaurant a lovely setting for lunch with good selection of food and drinks. Reception staff and managers are always so helpful and professional and waiters and bar staff go above and beyond. Very well maintained, beautiful hotel with maintenance staff and gardening staff onsite daily. We look forward to returning and wish everyone at the MAC very best wishes
Excellent for disabled, level access to beachfront, very easy to communicate with the hotel and very accommodating.
Back again for another stay this year. This will be my honest report. We booked nearly a year in advance where we requested a certain area but were disappointed when this wasn’t provided. We highlighted this and were moved after 1 day. This year the hotel has upgraded with new walk in showers. A big plus. New mattresses are too big for the bed with an overhang and they just don’t feel right. New steps to the pool are great. Breakfast was hit and miss. Bacon either rock hard and inedible or undercooked. Some eggs cold ! Cereal choice is poor. I feel the hotel goes for quantity over quality. Lunch available at the bar pool area. First time eating here in a couple of years. Food that came out was unfortunately below standard. Both our choices were poor at best. Cold and tasteless. Entertainment every evening and we really liked the Tenors trio. Great entertainment area with somewhat uncomfortable seating. Biggest complaint in this area was the number of guests who smoked. Especially those who left their tables at dinner, came over to the seated area, smoked and then returned to their food. No respect given. Perhaps a designated smoking area is required. We love this hotel because of its proximity to the marina area and the excellent staff and housekeepers. You have a couple of areas to work on and I hope you act on our concerns.
We spent 10 nights at the MacPuerto in Benalmadina in September 2026. Everything about the hotel is great, staff so helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. The room and shower room was spacious, well equipped and very comfortable and spotlessly clean.
The food in the dining was excellent, after 2 nights bed and breakfast we upgraded to half board.
Very good nightly entertainment and then a great location to walk out to the harbour or beach area.
Plenty of local shops for water etc and the beach is lovely and so close by.
We will definitely consider this hotel in the future and we would give it 5 stars *****
