    rating01 Oct 2026

    Stayed here in September on a 3 night break without children.Wow! What a fantastic hotel with such a cool vibe. It is beautifully decorated, has a great feel to it, excellent service and great food. It is better than it looks in the photos.The beach club was a favourite of ours for the daytimeWe had an initial issue with our room but the team went above and beyond to rectify this for us. Patrica in particular was fantastic.The only thing that disappointed was that we booked an Oasis room with a pool as it was a very special occasion and the pool - well isn’t really a pool! If we had known how small/narrow it was we wouldn’t have bothered with the extra cost of this room. The outside area of the room also did not match the standards of the hotel elsewhere. However this would not put us off returning in the future and would recommend to others. Itziar garcia, Dueño at Don Carlos Marbella, responded to this review Dear Rachelm, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the hotel's atmosphere, design, culinary offerings, and the service provided by our team. It is especially rewarding to know that our Beach Club was one of the highlights of your visit and that the team was able to resolve the initial room issue to your satisfaction. We will be sure to share your kind words with Patricia, who will be thrilled to receive your recognition.We also sincerely appreciate your constructive feedback regarding the Oasis room. We understand how important it is for accommodation details to meet expectations, particularly when celebrating a special occasion. Your comments about the pool size and the outdoor area have been noted and will be carefully reviewed as we continuously work to enhance our guest experience.It is wonderful to know that, despite this disappointment, you had such an enjoyable stay and would consider returning in the future. Thank you for your recommendation, and we very much look forward to welcoming you back to Don Carlos Marbella for another memorable stay.Kind regards,Itziar Garcia Director of Experiences

    Great Experience

    rating27 Sept 2026

    Excellent hotel and facilities, great service. The hotel rectified an issue with our buggy in a very satisaftory way. Magy at the tennis centre was super friendly and helpful, always trying to find a way to make things work. Unfortunately, the bonus round in the tournament was cancelled due to lack of courts so didn't get to play as much tennis as we would have wanted. Overall, a great experience.

    Fully recommend

    rating24 Sept 2026

    The experience started incredibly well with such a slick arrival at the front door with cases taken and the porter takes you to a dedicated reception- in this case Marco - who gave a warm and genuine introduction with flawless booking in accompanied by a glass of cava and sweet treats. The polished explanation of the hotelAnd facilities was excellent. The hotel has a varied amount of places to lounge. Cleverly separated and accommodated differ lent needs. The room we had- 1905 - has a fantastic sea view - and is clearly recently refurbished to a high standard. There are a number of eating and drinking places within the hotel. Marco restraunt is beautiful in the evening with fabulous lighting and bespoke dining arrangements making it feel very special. There is a healthy eating place within honestly the best menu for quilt free eating. Lucia is the inclusive beach club with chill vibes and lots of sunbed options. It opening at 11am and a queue can easily form so I recommend getting there for 10.45am and waiting. There is a club next door called Nikki’s. It costs in excess of £300 which gives you around d £250 bar credit. It just doesn’t make sense in my view. There is a brilliant gym and tennis centre. Don’t use uber. Just go the the outside porter and ask forA taxi which will be with you in seconds and will take you to Marbella in about 15 minutes for £20. Or Puerto Banus in 25 mins for about £28. I would come back for sure. The staff are excellent. Truly deserved mention to Marco who was our first and lasting impression and is an ambassador for the hotel. And finally. Don’t be fooled by the concrete 1970s architecture at the frontage. It hides a gem of luxurious interior. Itziar garcia, Dueño at Don Carlos Marbella, responded to this review Dear Mark, Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review of your stay.We are truly delighted to know that your experience started on such a positive note and that Marco made such a memorable first impression. Providing a warm, personalized welcome is something we deeply value, and we will be thrilled to share your kind words with him. He will be honored to know that he left such a lasting impression and that you consider him a true ambassador for our hotel.It is wonderful to hear that you enjoyed our newly refurbished room, dining venues, wellness and sports facilities, and the different spaces thoughtfully designed throughout the resort. We are especially pleased that the atmosphere, attention to detail, and service from our team helped make your stay so enjoyable.Thank you once again for your generous comments and recommendation. Knowing that you would choose to return is the greatest compliment we could receive.We look forward to welcoming you back to Don Carlos Marbella for another exceptional stay in the near future.Warm regards,Itziar Garcia Director of Experiences
