Best Adults Only Hotels in Benalmadena
Adults only hotels in Benalmadena are not that easy to find and there isn’t a wide selection to choose from. In this article, I have hand-picked the ones with the best reviews and location.
1. Hotel Riu Nautilus (Adults Only)
Four star adults only hotel right by the beach, Hotel Riu Nautilus is in the heart of Benalmadena.
Facilities range from an outdoor pool ringed with palm trees to garden areas, a fitness center, and a spa/wellness center. Some rooms have balconies, and many offer sea views. A 24-hour front desk is available should you have any questions during your stay.
The hotel is steps away from the beach and includes two bars and two on-site restaurants. A breakfast buffet is available to make sure you have enough fuel for a day spent enjoying the sun and the surf.
The hotel is highly regarded by those looking to enjoy Torremolinos Beach.
2. Med Playa Hotel Riviera (Adults Only)
Located in Benalmadena’s center, Med Playa Hotel Riviera is another adults-recommended destination to keep in mind when planning your trip.
This four-star hotel overlooks the marina and offers ocean views. Facilities include an outdoor pool, cooking station, poolside bar, and bar terrace.
The hotel hosts live performances throughout the year, meaning you can enjoy the space after hours. Med Playa Hotel Riviera is another couples’ favorite, and it is within walking distance of Benalmadena’s beaches, restaurants, shops, and other attractions.
Bicycle rentals, billiards, table tennis and beach access are all available through the hotel. A 24-hour front desk is on hand to answer your questions and make your stay as comfortable as possible.
3. Hotel Alay (Adults Only)
If you’re looking for a slightly more budget-friendly option, consider booking a stay at Benalmadena’s Hotel Alay.
Conveniently located in the town center, this adults-only recommended hotel is steps from the marina and the beach. Great for couples and friends, the hotel offers spacious rooms and an onsite restaurant with an international menu. Gardens and three outdoor pools are available for your leisure.
Most of the hotel’s rooms look out on the Mediterranean. When you’re not enjoying a night out on the town, the hotel’s summer terrace offers cocktails. A 24-hour reception and luggage storage facilities are available to ensure your stay is seamless.
What to Consider Before Booking?
As with any beach destination, Benalmadena’s prices vary based on the season.
The peak season generally lasts from June to September, and prices are bound to be highest then. Spring and Autumn may offer a drop in prices, but still see plenty of guests as these months tend to have pleasant weather.
Winter is Benalmadena’s off-season, and prices will be more affordable at this time of the year. It’s the perfect time to get the best deal on your hotel, while being able to enjoy some winter sun.
Benalmadena is quite small, so you will probably be close to major nightlife, eateries, and beaches no matter where in town you stay. However, if you want to be able to reach the beach in a matter of minutes, be sure to book an aptly located hotel.
Why Choose Adults-Only?
There are plenty of benefits if you’ve never stayed at an adults-only hotel. A child-free environment is bound to be less distracting than a traditional family-friendly hotel stay.
If you have children at home, you know it’s often difficult to get a moment to yourself. A hotel designed for adults is perfect for romantic getaways, trips with the besties, or solo adventurers looking for peace and quiet.
