Description
Melia Costa Del Sol is a large 4-star hotel built in 1976 and renovated in 2019, featuring 540 rooms across two 9-story buildings. Located on the beachfront in Torremolinos, it offers a mix of spacious rooms including several tiers such as The Level and Deluxe sea view rooms. Guests can enjoy multiple dining options including a buffet restaurant with show cooking and an a la carte national cuisine restaurant. Facilities include both indoor and outdoor pools, a spa with thalassotherapy treatments, a fitness centre, and conference spaces accommodating up to 250 people. The hotel provides family-friendly amenities like a kids' club and nanny services on request, plus free Wi-Fi and bike rentals. The hotel’s Royal Floor on the 8th level offers enhanced service with a private lounge and bar. Early breakfast is available from 4:00 am, catering to early risers or those with early flights. While mostly praised for its cleanliness, location, and quality of food, some guests noted that not all sea views are unobstructed and that the building shows its age in some areas.
Location
Melia Costa Del Sol is situated at Paseo Maritimo 11 on the Playa De Bajondillo beachfront, just 50 meters from a public sandy beach accessible via the promenade. The hotel lies approximately 500 meters from Torremolinos town centre and 6 kilometers from Malaga Airport (AGP), making it convenient for travelers flying in and out. Nearby dining options include Restaurante Pizza Mare Torremolinos (51 meters away) and Restaurante Miramar (174 meters), both within easy walking distance. The location offers quick access to local shops, bars, and entertainment venues, while the 1200-meter beach strip provides ample space for sunbathing and watersports. Parking is free but limited, and the hotel is close to a golf course located 6 km away.

Reviews
Note: Lots of older tour groups here and in area fyi if seeking younger crowd.
Good location across the street from the beach. Rooftop pool/bar nice as well. Not in downtown Malaga so you'd have to cab into old town area. Was perfect for our last night in the area and quick drive to airport next morning.
The sea view was partial
The room had water leak from AC
The AC is not cooling the room
