Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Benalmádena

We booked Penelope’s beautiful villa a year ago, in celebration of Grandad’s big birthday. It was to be the first time we had all had a holiday together, with ages ranging from 70 to 2 years old, and young ones flying in from London and Sweden. The villa and pool were perfect in every way - generously and thoughtfully equipped, from the kitchen utensils to the toys, and the fantastic range of pool and beach games, etc. The furnishings are of a high standard and the villa spotlessly clean, with endless hot water, comfortable beds and other modern conveniences. We were two minutes’ walk from the beach and the main front, with a choice of restaurants and bars if desired. Penelope was close by and on hand to deal with any questions - she was so kind and welcoming throughout our stay. In short, we cannot recommend this accommodation highly enough and cannot thank Penelope enough for her hospitality.

Estefania was a brilliant host and was very welcoming with great recommendations of places to visit and eat. Allowed us to have an earlier check in which was so appreciated considering we had a very early flight. Would highly recommend.

Stayed in Luuk's beautiful apartment for 11 days. Especially the large roof terrace with unobstructed views was fantastic! The house has all the comforts and the 2 swimming pools complete it. Due to the higher location, it is indeed a must to rent a car. Luuk was also quick to respond to messages to questions. Highly recommended!

"We had a great stay! The place was very clean, cozy and decorated with a lot of love for detail. Particularly noteworthy is, for example, the quiet location / the comfortable bed / the great view / the hospitality. The check-in was straightforward, and you immediately felt welcome. We would come back anytime and would recommend this place. Thank you for the time!”

It hasn't happened yet that everything was tip-top. 👏😊 Everything great. Owner very nice and friendly. Living as described. Everything super clean. We will definitely come back. 😊 Thanks so much

I booked the villa to celebrate my 60th birthday with my extended family. We all had an amazing time, the villa was great as we didn’t feel on top of each other. It felt very homely and calm. The villa was beautifully furnished and the host was really friendly and helpful. We will definitely be rebooking, couldn’t have asked for better to celebrate my birthday

My host Ana went above and beyond her duties as a host when our transport back to the airport fell short she stepped in and got us their what more could one ask The villa was amazing and Ana was always willing to give advice if needed. All I can say is she was first class 👍

A beautiful house with an amazing view over the rooftops to the sea and all the way to Fuengirola. Very easy to get to from Malaga airport without a car as the train station is only 5 minutes walk away. The pool was in the sun all day so the water was a nice temperature. The beds were comfortable and we really enjoyed the rain shower. There are several restaurants within a ten minute walk as well as a supermarket. We contacted the hosts when a door wouldn't unlock, and a locksmith was there less than an hour later, so a very responsive host.

Apartment was indeed amazing! Just like on the photos: all is neat and clean, and the view is splendid with beach only 5 minutes away. There's everything inside that we needed for a perfect vacation stay. Eduardo is a very friendly and helpful host, highly recommend this location!

What a fabulous place! We couldn’t have asked for a better apartment to stay in with our two children. The apartment had everything we needed from kids games to pool toys. The kitchen was so well equipped and Sharona provided plenty of towels for our stay. The location is 10/10, right on the marina with the beach across the road and supermarket and shops a few minutes walk away. The highlight for us was the roof top pool and the large balcony where the kids could watch the boats coming in and out. Beautiful! We are already planning to return next year. Thank you

Super apartment. Equipment as described TOP. Everything like new. Very nice hostess. Many tips for the area. Everything great

We enjoyed the apartment and the attentions (wine, coffee, herbs etc) that were ready. The view was spectacular, the Aldi a few minutes walk, lovely swimming pools (the indoor pool was heated!) and everything was sparkling clean. An Uber taxi to the village (Pueblo) works well via the app and took us to nice restaurants. Or by Uber to the train station and from there we could go anywhere. Day trip to Marbella, Marina Benalmadena and the city of Malaga,m. This can just scan (in and out) with your bank card these days and get on the train. This location is really a recommendation if you like tranquility and occasionally look for the hustle and bustle. Thank you also for the good care and the quick response to questions via the app.

Incredibly kind and super responsive hosts! Extremely well located apartment as advertised in description. A breathtaking view. The apartment is as described. It is very clean and very functional. All are accessible on foot or by public transport (there are buses nearby and a lot of taxis) Had a great visit! Thank you to the hosts stay as you are 😉 I highly recommend it. 😎

Perfect place to stay! Everything was spotless and exactly as shown in the pictures. The location was peaceful, and the space had everything we needed. The host was incredibly helpful and responsive, providing clear instructions and useful tips that made our stay even smoother. Would definitely recommend and come back!

A fantastic studio apartment done to a very high-spec and with everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay. Honestly I mean everything! I couldn’t fault the apartment or the communication through the host - who was always helpful and quick to respond. We had some difficulty finding the apartment on the first day due to Google maps which only took us to the bottom of the hill. That is probably the only negative as the hill was quite steep. Benalmadena is generally hilly in fact. Despite this we had a wonderful 4 night stay in a gorgeous apartment.

Our second stay was as good as the first. Great location, well appointed apartment, helpful and responsive host. Air conditioning in the bedroom would have been nice. We hope to stay again next year.

Very fast communication, we loved the appartement, exactly as described.

A great place to stay, very quiet and year round pool available. Photos were slightly different to what it was. Only down fall was the was no aircon in the bedroom, but there was in the living room so we slept on the pull out sofa. Very clean and responsive hosts, would definitely visit again. The area is tranquil and beautifully quiet and although not all aspects of the apartment was like the photos, it was nevertheless a beautiful place to stay. Thank you very much!

We have just spent 10 days in this lovely apartment. When we arrived check in was so easy. The apartment was so cosy and spotless clean. The location was so central located on the border between Benalmadena and Torremolinos giving you easy access to both resorts. It had a fantastic view of the marina and the sea. From the day we booked communication with Rosa was fantastic and we were given early entry to the apartment as we had an early flight. I would rate this place very highly and hope to return in the future.

It was one of my shortest trips away but one of my most enjoyable. The views were amazing and the balcony area is a beautiful addition to the apartment. I spent more time outside than inside the apartment. We even had the pool all to ourselves. It was so quiet and peaceful. Sigrun, was the perfect host and I can’t wait to return. Next time for much longer!

This was our third stay In Yasmine’s apartment and it certainly won’t be our last. Yasmine is an amazing host who cannot do enough for you. The apartment is pristine and has everything that you could possibly want for a really comfortable stay. It’s in a great location within easy reach of all amenities. Thank you again Yasmine

We loved staying at this beautiful seafront apartment within a gorgeous hotel. The location is fantastic right next to the Marina and a short walk to La Carihuela, surrounded by bars and restaurants. The apartment had everything we needed and was spotlessly clean. The host went above and beyond to ensure are stay was perfect. Thank you Nadine for your kindness. Our stay was perfect in every way and we look forward to staying again in the future.

Cristina was an excellent host. Flexible with the arrival, he gave us local recommendations, he was attentive, everything was very good. The apartment is just like the photos and is in a nice area.

We were greeted by the wonderful Elena who showed us around the apartment and was helpful and quick to respond with any enquiries we had throughout our stay. The apartment and location itself were fantastic and exactly as described which included the pool and private terrace and we were also surrounded by some brilliant restaurants and cafes which we enjoyed multiple times during our holiday. There is also a bus and train service nearby which allows you to travel to nearby places such as Malaga and Benalmádena which I would highly recommend! This was a fantastic holiday!
