Stayed in the Roc El Pinar in August 11 with 3 friends, we booked very last minute so at the price we paid, we werent expecting much.
Overall, i thought the Roc El Pinar was nice. It wasnt amazing, i've since been back to Benalmeda and stayed in much better! but this place was perfect for what me and my friends wanted - somewhere to sleep and swim after a night out in 24 hour square!!
Plus points: it was clean, (which is a huge priority!), staff were friendly, the shuttle bus was pretty good, not always on time, but in the week we were there the driver got to know us, used to wave and beep if he saw us walking into torremolinos instead of getting the bus!! big balcony overlooking the pool, lovely swimming pool!
Minus Points: nowhere near enough sunbeds for the size of the resort, everyday we had to lie out on the grass, airconditioning leaked in the room, not enough towels for 4 people, we had to ring several times to get them to bring more, food was pretty bad - all i could taste was grease. The entertainment was very much just for Spanish residents, we didnt hear any english entertainment at all!! No kettle in the room either, we asked for one countless times, in the end just gave up (got through the tea withdrawls!!)
All in all, if you're there for a good time, you'll have a good time. I guess because I went there not expecting much, I was pleasently surprised! I'd probably recommend it for a lads holiday or a girly holiday where all you need is a bed and a decent pool, but I wouldnt consider it for a couples holiday!! Its basic but value for money!
