Very nice apartment, lots of space and nicely appointed. Location good for golf courses in the area. Nice and quiet at night and with nice bars and restaurants nearby. The local beach is a bit messy with a hotel that looks like it has been unused for a while.

What a stunning place. The grounds were perfectly manicured throughout, beautiful flora. Pool areas all clean. Property perfect with our own yard. Close to the beach, in fact properties at the rear of the resort were practically on the beach. Staff all very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Any issues were promptly delt with. I cant fault the resort at all.

The accommodation is in a beautiful setting. On arrival we were a bit concerned about it being located next to dual carriageway. The area on the other side is lovely too. Staff were great. Receptionist maybe needed back up as she seemed harassed. Night porter excellent. Located between Estepona and Marbella. Bus stop right outside and buses mostly reliable.

Fabulous family vacation

We stayed 2 weeks at McDonald Villacana resort in July 2022. The resort is conveniently located in Costa de Sol between Marbella and Estepona. The resort is extremly beautiful near the beach. It includes all needed amenities (pools, bar, restaurants, convenience store, gym...). We occupied 3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms unit built in Andalusian style with beautiful terrace. The unit is very up-to-date and includes all needed amenities. Add to that, beautiful weather and great food. Highly recommend

Nice resort but lacking some basics

Nice resort but the rooms and services are lacking some basics. Rooms are old and need an upgrade. Faulty kettle, door knobs falling off. Was given one small 20ml shower gel and when asking for more at reception, I was told they only provide the one bottle on arrival. Room isn’t cleaned. Bar and restaurant doesn’t open until noon so there is nowhere to have a coffee or breakfast.
