  : The view from the balcony and the walk in the marina was the only thing that saved a bit our mood especially during the last two days spent without going out due to my ear infection and my missus eye problem caused by the very dirty sea water of the place. I don't understand how they can claim the blue flag where constantly the sea water was every color except blue. Very Disappointing! We visit Malaga one day, the city was nice, but the beach was no different from Benalmadena's, so even there we had no fun. A disaster vacation. We won't back to Malaga! Never again!
  : For brevity: the host send me a tons of rules via whatsapp roughly a week before. Each of those rules had a fixed penalty of minimum 50 euro. As soon as arrived a cockroach was waiting for us, and the room supposed to be clean, one of the bed sheet was smelling bad, I don't understand why the price includes a 50 euro cleaning fee. The bed was covered by a sticky plastic protection which was causing us to sweat during the night while the mattress was so uncomfortable we ended up sleeping on the sofa. The host has been completely absent, we didn't heard anything from them, until at the end of the "vacation" I let them know what time we were going to check out. The toilet was missing the basics such as the shower gel. We have been around all beaches in a a range of 4 Km, and the sea is constantly dirty, attaching example pic for proof. The food is surprisingly bad as well especially at the Chiringuito Carmen. The day after that my wife and I had stomachache and we ended up buying at the local Mercadona. The travel is not worthy the money and the accommodation is not worthy the money, highly overpriced to leave in a condominium of 13 floors with hundreds of noisy neighbours mostly active overnight. Wherever we have been in Spain in the past we have always enjoyed, but this last vacation in Benalmdena-Malaga has been definitively our worst vacation ever.
