Well, it's a lovely hotel, ideally situated in busy Fuengirola. We had a room overlooking the sea which was great although it was a little too hot in the morning sun even in October. The south side had plenty of afternoon sun but would be intolerable in summer. The hotel was clean, the staff were great. The rooms were fine except for a few minor niggles - the shower floor was slippy (no mats), a mirror was needed near the fridge as well as another chair and the shelving space was very limited. It is amazing that no previous reviewer has mentioned the insecurity of the wi fi system. It works well but I certainly wouldn't want to undertake any financial transactions on it. But the main reason for the 3 star rating is the food. Breakfast is excellent (except for the typical undercooked Spanish bacon) but the dinners are well below average. The food is often lukewarm and it's perhaps no coincidence that they have 2 microwaves in the dining room. There is also a very limited choice in comparison to some of the hotels we have stayed at recently (Hotel Cala Bona sets the standard), especially in the deserts department. Funnily enough, we spoke to several people who shared our opinion on this subject but the reviews don't reflect this (the clientelle is 90% pensioners so perhaps they aren't into reviews). The UK TV is good. BUT - we had a fabulous holiday !

I have had a really lovely stay at Hotel Yaramar and would especially like to highlight the excellent service throughout the hotel, both in the restaurant and at the bars. The restaurant deserves special praise for its flexibility and willingness to accommodate dietary requirements. As someone who needs gluten-free and lactose-free food and has several other food intolerances, I was genuinely impressed by how easily and positively the staff accommodated my needs. Nothing seemed to be a problem, which made me feel safe, welcome and able to fully enjoy my meals. The waiters and restaurant staff truly make a difference to the overall experience. They are attentive, friendly, professional and welcoming, always with a smile and a genuine interest in making guests feel comfortable. Their service adds that little extra something that makes a holiday memorable. The food selection was also very good, with plenty of variety. The hotel room was clean and well maintained, as was the pool area. The hotel has a lovely atmosphere, and everything felt neat, welcoming and well organised. I usually prefer discovering new destinations and hotels rather than returning to the same place, but Hotel Yaramar might just become an exception! Thank you to all the staff for making my stay so enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this hotel!
