We were 4 families with four 2-bedroom units. The resort is conveniently located within easy reach of Marbella, Puerto Banus, Benalmadena, Fuengirola, Torremolinos - all within a half-hour drive.
The staff at the reception was very helpful guiding us and giving us driving directions for all the local attractions.
The resort has a very good swimming pool, another indoor pool and also jucuzzi, steam & sauna.

My husband & I stayed @ the Crown Marbella 23-30 May 10. Staff was very nice and helpful (ask for Simon). Our room had all we needed and was very clean and spacious. The resort was much smaller than I pictured. Great place for families with kids. We did not use the pool and hot tub, too many kids. Restaurant was ok. Shuttle service was good. Took the city bus, which I highly recommend if you don't have a car. Shuttle or walk to bus stop (.5 mile down hill). Not much to do at the hotel at night, go to Marbella (my favorite section, quaint & Ritzy) or Fuengerola or Torrenlion (spelling??). Shoe shopping is fantastic for woman!! Did only 1 organized tour to Morocco; it was ok, didn't offer enough time to shop. Rented a car Thurs-Sun through resort, great deal, unlimited miles, and free return to airport on Sun, saved taxi fare. Drove to Ronda, great town, VERY curvy roads, and VERY high elevation, we recommend. Drove to Portugal (Faro), about 5 hours, easy drive, left at 6am arrived by 1130. Stopped in Tavira (south of Faro) on way back, take ferry to beach, a MUST!!. Also stopped in Seville, next trip to Spain, will spend more time in Seville, loved it, lot of nightlife, younger crowd. Spent 3 nights in Madrid. What can I say, city life, great metro system, no need for car, stayed in hostal Mirentxu near SOL, excellent location and service (see review on hostal). Costal de Sol is a beautiful area we had a wonderful vacation!

Stayed here with my girlfriend for one week on ALL Inclusive, found the hotel brilliant. The staff were all very polite, and would not hesitate to go out of their way to help you. The room was fairly basic but had everything we needed. I would recommend going all inclusive as drinks seemed expensive in the resort. There was always things going on and the staff trying to involve everyone however they respected people who didn't want to take part. The grounds were amazing and always clean.
The food was basic however there was a good choice and something for everyone EVERY NIGHT, I would just advise that if you want to sit alone let the staff in the resturant know otherwise they will put you on a table right on top of others.
The hotel is right next to the (30secs walk)strip which has many bars restaurants and shops on. There is also bus stops along this road which go to paphos that go by every 10-15 minutes.

ALL around a great place to stay i couldn't recommend it any more. We already plan to return next year.

We were very lucky to get a penthouse apartment at Club Delta Mar when we booked our vacation through RCI's "Extra Vacations". Our apartment overlooked the Sea across the street, three pools, and the hills. No AC - but the sea breezes kept us very comfortable all day and night. We were able to book tours through the front office staff, who were very helpful. We used the local bus service and supermarkets, which were only a 10 minute walk from the resort. Just past the bus stop is the beach, so we were able to walk there easily every day. Internet service is available, but is very slow. There are also internet cafes nearby. The free excursion to Mijas was wonderful!- it is a lovely mountain town. And we really enjoyed our tour to Morocco.
