We loved our time at Iberostar Waves Málaga Playa. It was beautiful in every way. The beach only steps away from the pool. The grounds are gorgeous and the staff fun and helpful. The food was delicious with so many options. We had breakfast plan so we went to restaurants for dinner which was great being 10 minutes walk to many options.

Out stay in Málaga!

O que me incomodou foi a falta de espreguiçadeiras suficiente para todos na área da piscina. Também senti falta da possibilidade de um restaurante à la carte para os hóspedes que vão sem crianças A equipe é bastante atenciosa gostei bastante

Not as good as expected. Hotel looking tired.

The balcony had a double tiled step which was difficult to see and was a danger to myself AND my wife who gas sight problems The towels in the room were old and thin. New investment on towels at least to the better rooms need considering Our glasses in the room were not changed or cleaned throughout our 3 day stay. We had to wash and clean our glasses every day. Not hygienic.

The pool is fantastic. Clean and safe. All the staff were really helpful on reception except for 1 man who let the team down - quite rude and arrogant when checking us in and when we needed some help with our room also. The lady that did the Bingo on 7th June made up for it though :)
