We stayed at Holiday Village last summer and you have to remember that this hotel is going to be part of an on-going development. At present there are two fully functioning hotels but the Beach Club can just about cope with the amount of people staying at them. You would be best to look at the HV thread on this site and decide for yourself. It also depends on what time of year you are thinking of staying.

We were thinking of booking this hotel for a late break in Sept but have been completely put off after reading reviews on another review site(sorry HT) has anyone been yet and if so could you post a review on it please, I'm so disappointed as it looks fab, I know all new hotels have teething problems but Thomson fail to mention the very close train track, unfinished building work and just how good the suites really are, apparantly they look nothing like the brochure describes them as. I hope the reviews ive read are wrong because i still want to go, my neighbour is going next month and she will post a honest review on her return.

hiya,we stayed here about 6 weeks after it opened,and there were a lot of people complaining about things,see other site(sorry ht) but we loved it ,from the time you walk in the reception its got the wow factor,the rooms were the best weve stayed in,ask for one with a pool/sea view.the food was lovely,always plenty of choice,full english breakfast if you want it,or continental if you prefer,lunch was over at the beach club plenty of choice but to be honest it was bedlam as the 4 hotels have to eat there,so we stayed round the pool and just had the snacks round the pool not much choice but there will be something you like,but do expect to que for it. beach club and pools are great.The shows at night were very hit and miss,should be better next year and they end at 11.00,bar was on till12.00 but they did like you to leave rather quickly over to the piano bar that was open till later.The biggest problem is that its a long way out from fungerola and benalmadena so you need to catch a taxi or public transport which was cheap and often but usually very full. if ive missed anything ill try and answer it for ya

Thanks Shaz 12

Looked at other site quite a lenghy discussion on it but I was hoping for more on here as this sites my fave
Plenty time yet I suppose im only goping next year.
We've requested a room with a pool view as there was no option for a sea view, have you any idea if the pool view ones are nice?
I read on the other site that the entertainment was in a room with seats in rows and no tables, is this true?
Also how far was the beach club heard it was quite far and over a big road, dont fancy venturing too far in my cozy with my wobbly bottom lol (still will give me incentive to get down to the gym, ive over a year to tone up so no excuse lol)
Also hubby wants to know what the beer was like lol

hi Shigham
If you get a pool view you also get a sea view,so its lovely when you walk onto your balcony.When we went in june/july the entertainment was outside,with a bit of a play park next to it for the kids,so you could watch the show and still see were the kids were.....to get to the beach club there is a bus every 30 mins to run you up and down there from the hotel,but to be honest its not that far to walk down to if you want to get down there early then get the bus back at the end of the day.the beer is campacruz(sp),and the local origin spirits are good also
