Hotel Boutique Al-Ana Marbella

Elena and her husband were welcoming, and the staff were very friendly. We spent six nights with our teenage daughter in a spacious apartment in the hotel grounds, with a separate bedroom and large kitchen. The pool and gardens are lovely, and there's a beach, bar and small shop within walking distance. I'd say you need a car, though, to visit Estepona and Benahavis, both of which are worth seeing.

The breakfast was superb, and the customer care was excellent. Such a charming hotel, with beautiful rooms, a garden and a pool. You can tell a lot of love and attention went into creating it. Thoroughly recommend!

My room is beautiful, and every one has its own signature motif. They've thought through all the little details. The common rooms feel welcoming, and so do the staff. Wish I could give it another star!

We visited in January, when the pool was a bit too cold and the hot tub wasn't working. In summer this place would be a little gem. It's a great small boutique hotel, with nicely decorated rooms, comfortable beds and good bathrooms.
