“Better than expected”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012
4
people found this review helpful

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!

Room Tip: If you have young kids, try to avoid a room overlooking the entertainment area - this goes on until...

“Great value for money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

I wasn't expecting that much, just wanted a cheap holiday, but I thought it was great.

Rooms were very clean, especially the bathroom, and that is the thing I am always fussiest about.

There was no kids either which was great. Dont know if its because we went in June or if its their policy.

Bar was great, Tony the barman was really friendly and made the holiday so much more enjoyable. Was great that you could order as many drinks as you could carry. Have been on other all inclusive where you can only order 1 or 2 drinks at a time, which is annoying.

Pool was also clean, not alot of loungers could fit around the pool but there was loads of other space for sunloungers all over the grass areas and there was never any problem getting one.

Food was ok. As a vegetarian I didn't have alot of options, but was happy enough with chips and cheese most nights. Would have loved a bit of pizza or something but at least there was chips and salad.

Would definitely go back, although next time I might stay a little closer to the nightlife as we did spend a good bit on taxis. But the hotel was great. And we made friends who stayed in the apartments, and we had a look at them and they were great too.

had the pleasure of staying here for about seven hours.ref. flight delay.a long long seven hours. cant comment on the rooms didnt dare to venture that far what i saw of the hotel was enough for us.rusty water was dripping out the cieling in reception i cant describe the overall smell in there.the smell coming out of the dining room was awful and did not resemble food in my opinion. this is a very basic hotel. thank you jet 2 for the insight into another world. a very very tired and rundown place! only joy for us was sitting at the bar by the pool passing the time. what staff we met were ok and very pleasant and never guessed we were english ! avoid at all costs.sorry i couldnt be more upbeat about this one.

“Fantastic holiday despite the rain”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 December 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I went with a group of friends late April 2011 despite the rain and amount of old people that were in the hotel i had a brilliant time. rooms are basic but really big, food it typically Spanish but quite nice and the drink are quite reasonably priced. When we were their the pool wasn't open as it was the winter season although it was about 25 degrees, i think it would be a lovely hotel for the summer. The hotel is quite a walk to the beach but the hotel does a free bus service to the main points of torremolinos.

Room Tip: Ask for a room in the main block as were were in a separate building where they were older rooms.

“Great Holiday”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 December 2011

people found this review helpful

Hi, Like most of you i read the reviews before we went on this holiday and to be truthful i was expecting the worst,,,, How wrong. Yes the hotel is dated and more like a three star but from the moment we arrived at reception the staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. The room very clean. the food ...well having about eight choices to pick from we had no problem at all. along with the food you had a choice of soft drinks, wine or beer all free and as much as you wanted. The entertainment dire but not a problem as we went out. We would go back to this hotel again for sure. a very cheap break.
