Fuengirola: 4-star Adults Recommended hotel

Adults Recommended Hotel: Designed for Peace and Relaxation

An Adults Recommended hotel is designed for those looking for a relaxing holiday away from the rush and interruptions, with a peaceful atmosphere, exquisite cuisine and spaces dedicated to wellness, whether travelling as a couple, alone or with friends.

Can families with children stay there?

• Children are welcome, but the hotel is not designed for them: Unlike an Adults Only hotel, children are allowed to stay. However, the entire hotel experience is designed with adults in mind.

• No children's facilities: With no kids' club, child-friendly pools, entertainment programmes or children's menus, little ones may not find the fun they're looking for, and the stay may not be entirely comfortable for the whole family.

• The ideal setting for every holiday: We want every traveller to enjoy their holiday to the fullest. If you're looking for a getaway where children can play, have fun and enjoy facilities designed especially for them, we recommend choosing a 100% family-friendly hotel.

The Fuengirola Google doesn’t show you: a guide for travellers, not tourists

Forget tourist office brochures. Fuengirola has a hidden side full of foodie alleyways, secret terraces and free viewpoints that most tourists never discover. If you want an authentic experience and to avoid the typical tourist traps, welcome to the insiders’ club.

• The free skyline from the Town Hall rooftop: Few people know that Fuengirola Town Hall offers one of the best panoramic views in town and is open to the public. For the pro version, head to the rooftop terrace at Hotel El Puerto. You don’t need to stay there to enjoy a drink with millionaire-style views over the marina and coastline.

• The hidden alleyways of Moncayo Street (“Hunger Street”): In the centre, there’s an area known as “Calle del Hambre”, a maze of restaurants.

  • Our tip: avoid the places with staff trying to drag you in. The best and cheapest restaurants are hidden in the side streets, where fried anchovy portions are twice as big and half the price.

• The “Mosque by the beach”: Fuengirola is home to one of the most modern and beautiful mosques on the Costa del Sol: the Sohail Islamic Cultural Centre. Its white architecture against the sea creates a spectacular contrast and it remains a hidden gem for most visitors.

• The Saturday flea market is for early risers: If you arrive at 11:00 am, you’ll only find overpriced tourist junk. The real treasures, vintage cameras, vinyl records and retro décor, appear from 8:30 am, when local collectors make their best deals.

• Free dolphin spotting: Many visitors pay for dolphin boat trips.

  • Local secret: walk along the marina breakwater early in the morning or at sunset and you’ll often spot dolphins close to the Fuengirola coast. Bring binoculars and save the boat fare.

• The low-cost parking trick: Parking in Fuengirola during summer can be expensive and stressful.

  • The insider tip: park at Recinto Ferial, a huge free parking area most days except Tuesdays and Saturdays. The beach is only a 10-minute walk away.

• Los Boliches and the train: your VIP pass: If you want to visit Marbella or Puerto Banús, skip the car and expensive parking.

  • Expert tip: use the intercity bus. For Málaga city centre, always take the train to Málaga Centro-Alameda station, right next to Calle Larios and without any traffic stress.

• Jump2spain.com bonus: For the best seafood without beachfront prices, head behind Los Boliches Church. That’s where local fishing families go to eat.
