Cortijo Del Mar Resort

Очень понравился кортихо-дель-Мар. Это в 10 минутах езды на такси от пеурто банус, о чем мы совсем не возражали. (стоило нам 5 евро на человека на такси в и из peurto banus. Это стоило того, чтобы быть за городом, так как курорт был действительно тихим и расслабляющим. Никакого шума ночью. Чистота была превосходной. Действительно современные номера. Еда в кафе была восхитительной ,Прекрасный бассейн.Очень понравилось.Мы останавливались как девичник, который был забронирован через соус чили, и это было фантастически.

We traveled in July 2023 with Jet2 in a party of four families. The apartments are obviously privately owned and whilst they are well sized each apartment has differing furnishings and kitchen equipment. The rattan garden furniture in three of the four apartments our party occupied was perished and breaking up on either the chair arms or the top of the back of the chairs. Some didn’t even have cushions. The pool area has an overpriced restaurant bar and pool activities are overly subdued by the lifeguards who enforce the “no balls” and “no inflatables” rules. This seemed to be at the bequest of the residents as although Jet2 and Cortijo Del Mar websites claim the resort is family friendly there isn’t actually a lot for kids to do. So the restrictions on “no balls” and “no inflatables” in the pool seem to fly in the face of this family friendly claim. Neither website highlight these rules. The rules however seem to be flexible for residents as although there is a sign at the resort entrance highlighting dogs are not allowed there are signs around the resort highlighting that residents are responsible for cleaning up their dogs waste. During our trip we saw dogs in the resort and at the pool area on more than one occasion which surely must raise questions on the cleanliness of the pool area. The water in the pool seemed clean enough, however the plastic overflow grating around the pool is degrading due to exposure to the sun and whist some of it has been replaced, this seems to be in response to it breaking rather than a preventative measure. The sun beds around the pool have also seen better days and also show signs of degradation due to sun exposure with some of them exhibiting cracks which could make them dangerous. In fact one of or party sat on one and it collapsed under them and luckily they were not injured. Pros - comfortably sized apartments - apartments frequently cleaned Cons - not a lot for kids No pool table No table tennis table No entertainment (which we knew) - Wi-Fi was extremely poor and struggled with social media let alone web searches - No Balls and Inflatables allowed in the pool - Pool overflow grating breaking up and possibly dangerous - Sun beds some cracking and possibly dangerous

To be clear this is not a RESORT its only apartements inside a big residence . all of the pictures are exagareted or photoshoped there is no fitness center no activity for the kids no spa no restaurant .... only a residence with a swiming pool where kids are not alowed to do anything ... there is some apartements previleged who has acces to the swiming pool who benefit from transat and towels everyday its done according to to the face of clients some has being paying more and they have been located in a far building who has a view of garbage can and abandoned park ....wifi not working, water infiltration, no sat tv , we felt like in a military base ...no apolgy not even a cup of water the staff did not do anything to make the stay enjoyable they where robot executing their objectif

We were a party of 6 ladies who travelled to the Estepona area for the Solheim Cup (Ladies Professional Golfers from Europe and USA), which was being played at Finca Cortesin Golf Course. We were delighted with our very spacious, comfortable and clean apartments which were situated close together. We had 2 x 2 bedroom apartments for the 6 of us. Each apartment had a main shower room and and en-suite jacuzzi bathroom. The apartments were very well equipped and benefitted with free WiFi and electric shutters to keep the place cool when needed. There were TVs in the master bedroom as well as the lounge. Although we were in the area primarily to watch the golf, we spent time in and around the pool which was beautiful. The resort is handy to shops and restaurants, within walking distance. Any help we needed was swiftly dealt with by friendly and polite staff. We would certainly recommend this resort.

Nice property, quiet and clean. Parking in the parking garage. Definitely need a car to get around.

The property is very nice, the pool is great, very big and nice. The not too great part is when you have to deal with the staff, other than Ivan who was good trying to help. Their response for the air conditioning not working in our apartment was: the air conditioner was put on fan mode and for that reason was not working, which was not true. We had to stay with that problem until the next day because was no one to clean another similar apartment so we can move. Other than the staff response when you have a question to ask, looking like they do a favor for you, everything was good 😊. Consumer service can and should improve.

Amazing resort, beautiful greenery and friendly helpful staff. definitely will want to return was the perfect location.

Just back from a one week stay. The appartment and complex are very nice ,well maintained grounds. The appartment itself was well equipped and spacious .We were two up and overlooked the pool and pool bar and you could see the sea. The staff at reception are very helpfull. I broke a couple of things and there was no microwave and within fifteen minutes maintenance had arrived and all sorted. The cleaners and ground staff are friendly too.The pool bar is way overpriced for what it is. Got a tuna salad,chips and two beers,45Euros. Do not know how families with kids do it. There is a ten minute walk down a lovely road with some beautiful villas to the main road where there is some bars and restaurants and a supermarket. Highly recommend Masala Indian and Cabana was lovely for drinks. We went a walk over the bridge, which was quite daunting as theres traffic speeding fast underneath, so not for the faint hearted, and headed to the Robin Hood Inn which was closed. It was early in the morning but there is a long alley there that takes you to the beach. Not much of a beach as no one there and no sunbeds. Walked quite a bit along to the right and it is just villas and Hotels. No bars or restaurants looking out to see which was disappointing. Would recommend going into Puerto Banus for the day. We met up with family for lunch at La Sala by The Sea,a beach Club. Food was amazing and a walk to the Marina is eye opening with the Yachts and cars. Overall we had a lovely stay and it was boiling hot. The Complex is in a lovely affluent residential area but just a bit too far out for us. You need to go into Estepona for nightlife and shopping. We are used to places like Palma Nova and Playa Blanca with everything on your doorstep. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing holiday then this is the place for you.

Our apartment itself was gorgeous, spacious and had everything we needed. The reception staff were very helpful and quick to respond to what’s app messages. Not enough sunbeds around the pool, and families were reserving them all day, despite not being there for hours and the lifeguards didn’t do anything about it. They were just sitting playing with their phones. There was a little bit of mud by the pool but didn’t bother us too much. The bar/restaurant was pricey and closed early at 9pm. Not even a happy hour like most places we have been too, and the staff weren’t too enthusiastic. Nothing for teenagers at the resort (or nearby). Could have benefitted from a pool table, ping pong table or just even board games. There’s no entertainment which we were aware of but as there isn’t much in the area, it would have been nice for something a couple of times a week. There are a few nice restaurants nearby but we didn’t find anything traditionally Spanish. As a family the area wasn’t for us - it was quite a residential area and it didn’t quite have the ambience that we like. Didn’t help that there was a busy dual carriageway alongside and there wasn’t any chintzy shops to browse in the evening. We were not confident enough to hire a car, so used buses and Ubers. Most things to visit are a fair distance - Estepona town is lovely but is still a good drive. Would recommend Selwo Zoo for a day out.
