Iberostar Selection Marbella Coral Beach

Everything from arrival. The warm welcome. The hospitality. the help. The attention to details . The food- a lot to choose from. The integrity of the brand- I stayed in the same hotel in Mallorca twice and got engaged there. I would recommend this hotel. I booked the semi-private pool room, I would recommend

Twin beds instead of double bed

Everything is perfect, good location, the most delicious food, staff was lovely. I will recommend this hotel to everyone

No bathrobes in the room

Location of the hotel is fantastic, close proximity to nearby popular areas, walking distance to the beach, very clean hotel- really well managed, helpful professional staff. Great food and drinks choice for all the three meals of the day - freshly cooked food and a lot of it made to your preference in front of you, very clean nice swimming pools, welcoming ambience, amazing views of the sea, taxi easily available. 5+stars to the evening chef Oscar for taking every measure to make sure that my daughter's food was nut free as she has a nut allergy and Ivan for making the nicest fish preparations for us every evening.

Nothing...the hotel staff took such good care of us, we have no complaints.

It is very close to the beach, very nice design (particularly rooms with semi-private pools) and habitat around. Staff was superb (other than kitchen)!

Quality of food was a struggle. We complained numerous times and staff (including both managers) was ever so accommodating, but it did interfere with our holiday fun significantly. It would make a huge difference if the restaurant was not indoors.. Also, pools are not heated, so we could not use them early summer temperatures. Lots of ants on lower ground floor rooms, but hardly anything can be done about this as there are so many outdoor spaces.

The breakfast and dinner were exceptional. The chefs were on hand to make fresh and delicious food choices at every station and the choice was fantastic for those I picked at the buffet. The staff were professional, helpful, and polite. Particularly loved the personal jacuzzi on the rooftop. I used it at night as well after a night out. The pool is great and would pay again to have the atmosphere there. I wasn't expecting but enjoyed the entertainment laid on every day. Plus, the massage is heavenly.

Nothing can be done about this, but the room I was in was a lot smaller than I am used to in 4/5 star hotels. As such I had to sit on the bed to use my laptop. However, this is only a niggle. I think that guests should not have to pay for parking at the hotel. For the price, this should be included in the cost.

Location is great if you're wanting to be near Puerto Banus and the beach. The breakfast selection was lovely. Rooms were really big and clean. Check in and Check out process was very easy.

The hotel claims to have a spa but It is simply a very small jacuzzi in a room overlooked by the gym. Unfortunately when we stayed we had rain and thunderstorms one day, so we decided to use the spa to fill our day but there was too many of us for the area so we had to make alternative arrangements. I didn't like that you couldn't pay cash in the bars downstairs, I'm not sure if the whole hotel is cashless or just this bar but this wasn't ideal for us.

The staff were very helpful and nice. The pool was lovely. . The food was nice and good choice. The taxi service was very quick. Very close to beach. Nice walk along same.

The restaurant staff not been advice of offers made to guest. 3 times their was a mistake with the charge. Been able to pay in cash or card especially in bar would be good. Having to pay for tea bags and milk in room very bad . In twin room only one wardrobe. Friends had 2 in theirs and there was one person in their room.

Great stay! Hotel was lovely, clean and of a good standard! Breakfast was a highlight with a huge amount of options and freshly cooked options too. The pool was of a good size and never over busy and had different types of entertainment to cater towards everyone staying. The beach bar and pool is a nice touch and great place for a drink before heading out. Location means it’s a short walk to Puerto Banus with plenty of options of bars and restaurants on route as well as longer walk to Marbella with again, lots of great stop offs. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Would highly recommend

A couple of the food/drink options felt expensive if you weren’t expensive, although nothing excessive. Gym facilities could have been better, and loungers on the balcony would have been a bonus!

Large room with terrace to sit out was lovely. The beach was a quick walk away. Bikes were available out front of the hotel for riding along the promenade to Marbella town. puerto banus was a 15 minute walk away. Liked the water stations on every floor toget fresh water each day with no plastic waste.

The doors in the hotel slam shut so loud, it’s jarring, and forget about sleeping past 8 am as you will get woken up abruptly by this loud noise. The outdoor restaurant will serve drinks until 11 but stops food service past 7 pm. most hotels in Spain serve food much later. The entertainment outside was ok. would have preferred more Spanish entertainment vs English singers.

The room was comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was excellent. We had the evening buffet once and it was very good value. Reception staff lovely, some of the waiters could be a bit surly

I was surprised by the room hot drink arrangements. There was a coffee machine (-we would have preferred a kettle) and no milk. We bought a bottle from a local supermarket. After we had used up our 2 coffee cartons and one English breakfast tea bag, we were surprised to find no replacements left by the maid. When I asked at reception, I was told I would have to pay 7 euros to replace them! I have never experienced this before, always had top-ups of used hot drink sachets.
