The hotel is very clean and well maintained. It is perfectly located to wander along the sea front and the views from the hotel are lovely. The breakfast is superb with absolutely everything you could ask for, including cooked food. The rooms are very well maintained and the side sea view room was worth the extra cost. The staff were very friendly and helpful. This hotel will be a bolt hole for us in the future.

Staying at El Fuerte Marbella was an amazing experience! The hotel is right by the sea, so we enjoyed refreshing swims in the ocean as well as relaxing moments in the rooftop pool.Our room was comfortable and had a lovely view of the sea. There are plenty of dining options, but the rooftop restaurant, Edge, was absolutely stunning—perfect for a special dinner with breathtaking views. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, always ready to help and make our stay even more enjoyable.
