My wife and I had such an enjoyable time at the Elba Estepona Gran hotel/ spa.
Half board,
breakfast, there was so much choice, amazing.
Dinner buffet, lots of choice plus a fresh meat or fish cooking station by two chefs, I just had to tell the chef what I liked and how I would like it cooked, incredible.
There also was another restaurant but for a small supplement but didn't manage to go.
The spa was very relaxing, and I did go to their gym once and was a good array of equipment. Outdoor very large pool and an indoor heated pool were great. And plenty of sunbeds. I'm looking forward to going back soon.

We stayed at Elba during Easter holidays and were pleasantly surprised by welcoming and supporting members of staff. Our room was lovely with an amazing sea view. The breakfast was great - lots of fruit, meats and omelette that’s made to order. I’ve managed to learn quite a few sentences in Spanish (thanks to wonderful members of staff).
The hotel itself is little bit dated and probably needs a little refurb - we could hear people talking in other rooms. But it wasn’t a big issue, some people might find it annoying.
Still, it’s a charming place. We are planning to come back later in a year.
Also, there’s Aldi on the other side of the road for those who would like to sample local produce.

Lovely quiet family hotel. Nice pool, plenty of loungers. Service was impeccable from reception to bars and restaurants. Excellent hotel if you just want to chill as town is a bit of a hike but easy to order a taxi from reception to go into Marbella or wherever. The food from the buffet was great plenty of variety

We booked 2 rooms for 7 days. We paid £1500 for one room and £2800 for the other. The difference between the two rooms was a sea view and a camp bed in the corner. Everything else was identical. How can you charge an extra £1300 for a sea view and camp bed? Feels very unfair especially when a quick online search shows the difference should only be a few hundred pounds.

This was our second stay at the Elba and we liked it even more than the first. Its a 5 star hotel without that stuffy feel you sometimes get going 5 star. The Junior suite was perfect for us, quiet location, sea views, spacious with excellent terrace and sunbeds, good aircon that works quietly and nice decor etc. Special mention to Rafael and Miriam on reception who allocated our room and checked us in, and to all the staff at the Elba who were super friendly and helpful, and full marks to the Manager for having such a great team. Like most things in life, there is a little room for improvement but we had a great stay at the Elba and will be going back again for sure.
