Apartamentos Embajador

That huge sunny balcony and the amazing shower were highlights, and it’s near the strip. The apartment itself was fine, very basic, and there wasn’t even a toaster. But lordy, the beds! The headboard isn’t attached to the bed, so every little movement made it bang against the wall. If they sorted the beds, I’d rate it higher.

We like these apartments because we enjoy walking, and we stay here often when we visit Fuengirola. The rooms are spacious, basic, and clean, with no frills, and the balcony is great, which we love. Nora at reception is very helpful, an extra bonus. Last October it was warm enough for us to use the pool area a few times.

Parking was a nightmare, but everything else was easy to reach on foot. We had a great, clean and tidy apartment for our five-day stopover, right on the beachfront.

We really liked the apartment and the view from the balcony. The general organisation could perhaps have been a little better, though. Reception doesn’t open until 10 am, and with our return flight at 6 am, we couldn’t find any information about where to leave the keys.
