Nice place for a walk around plenty of choice for food, drinks and gifts. Boat trips and a go on the big wheel. We went in February not everything was open or opened late or at weekends. Nice walk to Torremolinos along the coast again with plenty of places to eat and drink.

Nice Mediterranean feeling walking through the harbor. Many restaurants to choose between, some of them are either a hit or miss. Expect a little bit higher pricing in general if you plan to eat here, which is understandable as there are many tourists here. There are also many locals who eat here though.

Very vibrant busy marina with lots of bars and restaurants. The prices range from average to expensive which you would expect. There are boat excursions which are very popular. We find parking outside the marina and walking in works best. Fantastic place well worth a visit.

Beautiful marina and one of the biggest I ever saw, with hundreds of pleasure boats, and catamarans, and sailing boats ⛵️ you can take a walk to admire them or visit one of the fashion, and souvenir shops all around the marina. You can do boat trips if you're lucky you will be able to see dolphins 🐬 and you can have something to eat or just a drink in one of many restaurants on site.

Interesting location. A wonderful and beautiful place, oriental architecture, many souvenir shops, cafe and restaurants, an aquarium, a big wheel, free parking in the western part, a large beach nearby.

Visited the marina for the first time today. The weather wasn't brilliant but l found the marina, shops and restaurants were really good. Next time l will visit the Sea Life Centre.

Absolutely love it here. Loads of bars , restaurant's and shops. Been here four times and will be back soon. Boat trips available. Surrounding area and beach worth going to. Very friendly and family orientated place , never seen any trouble. Highly recommended place for a holiday , guaranteed sun.

Two hour boat ride to see the dolphins - boat was busy but pleasant and able to sit down comfortably. We were quite away out when the boat slowed down and lots of dolphins could be seen - quite beautiful - had hoped for a sea swim on our return but this didn't happen - not sure why - boat a bit rocky on the sea but seeing the dolphins so close up made it a great trip.

Amazing Hotel, staff are very friendly and helpful, they are also very accommodating with all your needs. Food is brilliant, and tasty with lots of verity. Daily room service which is nice, very clean and tidy hotel. Forget this guy's. Plan and simple. Would I come again. Definitely yes.... 💯% Thanks too all the team, you are amazing. See you all SOON. 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Great place for food, drinks and shopping. Looks great at night time also. Parking available in the center but we parked in Paloma Park, free street parking all around and a car park at the top. Only a 20min walk to the Marina through this lovely park which in itself is worth a few hrs to explore before going to the Marina for an evening meal.

Lovely marina and brilliant boats for seeing the dolphins. We don’t manage to see the dolphins this time round so they have us 50% off to come again. There’s loads of shops and a shopping mall in the marina. A taxi rank too and plenty to see and do. Very beautiful

Beautiful, vibrant place to visit if in Benalmadema. Plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from, including Italian, Asian and Steak Houses. Staff at the bars are welcoming and bring drinks and food to the table, so there is no need to queue at bars. Just sit, wait, and enjoy the surroundings. The only negative is the sheer number of touts selling various items on the streets. They will approach you numerous times, but they are always friendly and nothing to worry about. Just a slight inconvenience.

It's a nice marina with boat trips available and lots of shops, bars and restaurants above. Very picturesque

It's been a lovely walk around the Marina tonight. Plenty of restaurants serving a variety of different cuisines. And the reflection on the water is worth admiring. Quite stunning.

Beautiful when the sun comes up. Good for nightlife, lots of restaurants and bars. Shame there isn't more space to simply sit and see the beauty of the sea without having to buy something.

Full of amazing architecture and history. A great place to visit. Explore, dine in or outside, drinks, shopping, boat trips etc. A place you can easily spend the day. Wide veriety of local produce aswell as foreign cuisine. Beautiful surroundings

Always favorite place to spend some time for a walk or just chilling with friends or family. The greenery and all plants in the park are amazing and the environment is very relaxing. It’s a great place to be surrounded by nature and enjoy some fresh air. If you’re planning a picnic, this is the perfect place to spread out your blanket and enjoy a meal in the nature. Just don’t forget to clean after yourself, as we don’t want any evidence of us for the local wildlife! Don’t miss out on this hidden gem, you will thank me later :)

Great park, lots of things to see. We loved seeing the tortoises, goats and birds. I love the green Parakeets! The head sculptures and the cactus park were fabulous

A great little park to explore with the family. There's goats, chickens and rabbits within the park, as well as multiple public gym areas to do some working out. There's a decent sized play park for all ages of children to enjoy, some of it is hilly and some of it is flat. Plenty of public benches to take a break and rest your feet if needed.

A great park with lots of wildlife and farm animals. We had some drinks at a the Auditorium Bar which was nice. Great bamboo and cactus garden and lots of cute rabbits!

Nice park not far from the beach. Has at least 3 places to eat/drink (they even have gluten free beer). Toilets located near cafés. Two playgrounds, one for small children and the other for both younger and old children but the large equipment is more suited for older/bigger children. There is a lake with terrapins in and a cactus garden to walk around. Worth a visit if you want a break from the beach or the pool.

Nice free urban park full of greenery, birds and animals. I was amazed by the parrots living there 🦜 Great place where to “disconnect”, have a long walks. Bring your picnic basket and enjoy a fun time with family and/or friends 🥐🍏 There are also cafes. The ponds (f.e the turtles lived or the one with the ducks) seemed dirty. I hope the animals (rabbit, goats, etc) are well taken care of there.

Been here a few times whilst on holiday in Benalmadena. Its lost its charm a little as you don't see so many chickens etc running about. The park itself is well maintained and lots of areas to sit and enjoy the scenery. We also liked the cacti area. We also had lunch and drinks at the Europa Cafe at the entrance which was good.

Beautiful park with lots of birds to view. Two cafes for a beverage and tapas. Grounds are immaculate and well planned. Three or four fitness stations with very nice fitness equipment. Huge children’s playground! L

Lovely park which we have visited many times. It has great play area for kids. Rabbits and chickens plus goats in addition the the lakeside ducks and water fowl.

Beautiful park, extremely green which was surprising given the heat. We came here of a weekend and noticed it was very popular with families having picnics. There was chickens, rabbits and ducks around the park. It had a lovely lake, lots of birds on it, no boats. Public toilets available and cafe

My family stayed nearby, so we visited hear often in May 2023. It's a big and versatile park with turtles, goats, chickens and of course many pigeons. We saw rats as well, because people feed the pigeons. There are two playgrounds and three cafeterias in the park. My favourite part is the cactus area; all of the cactii are fascinating and some of them are huge! There are toilets, but at least the one next to the cactus area is filthy. The ones at the cafes are much cleaner.

Beautiful park, could spend most of the day here, a couple of places to eat and drink with the grounds or take a picnic and chill in one of the many great areas within the park. A place for kids to play also and plenty of wildlife all over.

Beautiful park. Nice winding paths, with different sections like palm garden,cacti garden. Dog friendly. Several drinking fountains Toilets are dirty or out of service.

Beautiful well kept parking. Lots to do & see. Been several times. A haven of calm with plenty of seats to rest & enjoy

Perfect place for an afternoon walk with kids, there is plenty to do for everyone, the playground is well equipped, there is a small restaurant nearby, the cactus garden is pretty fancy, and the area around the lake is full of side activities. The mini zoo has goats and chickens.

Very much enjoyed our visits to this lovely park. Very well maintained with easy walks, cafes, toilet facilities, oodles of shaded benches to relax and enjoy the flora and fauna. Numerous entrance and exit points too. Well worth a visit.

Great park. lots to see. nice play area for children. cactus part is very impressive. really good cafe is beside play area. accepts cash only.

My favourite park to go for a walk / to read a book or just to chill out. Very versatile park. New outdoor gym just opened up, lot of pokemon stops/gyms 😉, lakes and even little waterfalls. I just love this place thanks for keeping this place in good condition!

A well-kept and very interesting park in the town. Succulent park, lake with ducks and turtles, playground, cafe. There's something to see. A good place to relax

Fantastic park with wildlife and well maintained/ heavy-duty exercise equipment. Beautifully manicured. Children will love the playgrounds.

I found the cable car to be an excellent experience, The views from the top are definitely worth seeing. However I found experience to be very expensive, Especially as at the top only one of the three views is accessible with wheelchair or pushchair. The cable car in yourself needs repair, it is very difficult to see outside the windows.

Hugely enjoyable ride up to the top, especially for kids. There’s limited you can do at the top apart from hiking (not ideal with young children) and the birds of prey show, so it may be worth timing your trip up to coincide with the show. The show itself was great. It costs £5 per adult extra but well worth it. Very impressive performance and we would definitely recommend it. Our 2 year old was gripped!

Better to get here by taxi or car. Near is parking lots which you can use. You can pay by card but be careful, two of my cards not worked, third one was ok. Have a cash just in case. Cabin is super small, two adults can sit comfortable. Inside the cabin you can listen story about this in 4 languages, or you can stop it:). On the top is nice view but you must go little bit higher to have 365 view. Enjoy your trip.

We went on a windy summer day this June and it was perfect. There were four of us which was just right for one cable car. The views were breathtaking. The cafe was already closed by the time we finished our hike up the vista point. We took a later time so as not to be too hot. A must see when in the area.

Amazing! you have the feeling that you are climbing the mountains, riding in a taxi))) you are a little scared of the pickup truck, where the car stops)) Was wonderful the feeling of climbing a big mountain over 2500 meters above sea level, if I'm not mistaken, by taxi))). By the time we got to the top, we had stunning views across the coast that beckoned to catch the sun from multiple vantage points. A variety of activities, such as the bird show (which I saw was), horses and authorized for stargazing, because these places open until 11 at night i believe , more In short, a very good experience, especially would be good as a hike! that would be wow!! It is a Must! Love this type of walking!❤️

Loved this. Cable car ride is amazing, it goes over an abandoned theme park, over a motorway and finally up a sheer cliff face. After that you can climb to the top and take photos. Mind your step, some of the rocks can be skippy. Took in the bird show, this was great and a fun way to spend our time at her top. Then it was back down to earth. Awesome half day excursion.

Vertigo, suspense, and breathtaking views come with the cable car. On the 15-minute ride, you get views of the coastline, panoramic views of houses, motorways, and the mountain side as you make the climb. When you reach the top, the views are to die for. The physical climb up the "rocky stairs" gives you multiple views from different sides of the mountain. The falconry gives an additional delight for adults and children alike with a mixture of amazement at the birds of prey's graceful maneuvering. Plenty up here for young and old alike - a worthwhile half day well spent.

Great experience, from the beach you can walk 30 minutes or take the bus 103 to Teleférico. We bought the tickets from a tourist office and was a little cheaper. In 15 minutes you are up and there you have metal stairs up and down. There is a falconry show twice a day, we saw the one at 1 pm (you enter with the cable car ticket).

This is a must when at Costa del Sol. The ride is great, the view is fantastic and you can top it all with a cold beer up there.

Highly recommendable. Comes with a Falcon show as well which is not included in the cablecar ticket ( show costs 5 euros for adults, 3 for kids), shows are always at 1 and 3pm. So, if you have kids, chose your time around the shows since small kids won't be able to walk the interesting but small and somehow tricky pathways around the mountain.

Great 15 minutes ride to the top of the mountain in a cable car, then just a few minutes walk to the very top. Amazing scenery on the way up and even better views at the very top, 360 views. Staff very friendly and help you in and out of the cable cars. Great experience, highly recommend

The cable car journey to the mountain's peak is a captivating experience that lasts about 15 minutes, offering breath-taking panoramic views throughout. The vistas from the top are nothing short of spectacular, making the ride worth every moment. Upon reaching the summit, a café awaits, providing a delightful spot to unwind and soak in the stunning surroundings. For the more adventurous, there are hiking paths that offer fantastic sea views, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the visit. While the cable car ride itself is a treat, the extra cost for the Prey bird show might be a consideration for some. Nevertheless, the overall experience is a fantastic blend of natural beauty and optional adventure, making it a recommended excursion for those seeking a picturesque escape.

Perfect way to spend some time away from crowds if you choose one way ticket and take a walk from the mountain top to buenalmadena. It takes about two hours if you choose short path but it is totally worth it Path is not very demanding and you can easily do it if only not in flip flops

Amazing experience! Breathtaking views on a clear day you can see for miles. Reasonably priced. A lot of walking be prepared - suitable shoes - uneven surfaces. Although the cable cars takes you up the mountain, it doesn't fully take you to the top, so it requires a bit more walking. There's a bird of prey display which you pay extra for but it's not expensive. We ate at the cafe on the top of the mountain and we would recommend the pizzas - very nice.

This is an experience just mind your head getting into the cableway as it does not stop for you to get on. Return ticket is advisable. The view alone is as good going up or down. Tip select your language and start the commentary once you are seated otherwise it will be out of sync with your trip. There is a bird show at the top check the times and DO NOT MISS IT 100% WOW see pictures.

Really nice experience. Great views and there is a challenging walk to the peak of the cliff. Don't do it in flip flops as my gf found out haha

We visited out of season, hence no waiting and no problem with buying tickets. So during high season it maybe better to purchase tickets online. There's an option to buy one way ticket, so Cablecar up and walk back down. Beautiful views from the top, a cafe with great food/drink options. Even a falcon show (which we missed). Not wheelchair accessible and reasonable level of mobility/fitness required to climb to all view points.

We have been living in Spain for seventeen years. Every Time we went to Malaga on the highway, we thought we should give the cable car a try. This year we finally managed to go to the top of the mountain and I must say it is seriously spectacular. We did not choose the perfect day, it was a bit misty, but is still a great experience. Do not miss the eagle show on top. Remember to bring cash, as you cannot pay with your card for the show.

This hotel is just great! Best location in the old village, close to restaurants and taxis. Completely quiet and relaxed atmosphere. The owner Susanne will make your stay a perfect one. Highly recommended!

Boutique Hotel Pueblo is a two star hotel which gives guests a five star welcome. Susanne and her staff are friendly, efficient and professional. The whole process from initial booking to check-in and check-out runs seamlessly. The rooms are perfectly comfortable and are cleaned daily. Finally, the hotel is centrally located which makes it easy to enjoy the culinery and cultural experiences that Benalmádena Pueblo has to offer.

The host is so very friendly, even in the process of booking. That gives you a warm and comfortable feeling of welcome. Also based on the reviews, this hotel deserves to be visited!

A very well appointed boutique hotel with a charming owner. You have everything you need here and the location is great. Lots of restaurants and bars in the area, and quiet if you want to relax.

A fabulous little hotel, with very friendly helpful staff, in a beautiful little village. Ideal for a quiet few days, its in a beautiful little village, with great restaurants, lovely local people and very relaxed atmosphere. If you want party central this is not for you, but if you want to chill out and relax for a few days Hotel Pueblo is as good as it gets.

Like finding my own little piece of heaven. I was long overdue a break and I only booked the day before I came to Spain. There is nothing to fault and everything to love. It feels totally Spanish, unlike the Costas, and I cannot wait to return.

Great hotel and location and service too. Only problem was a lack of hot water one night which was sorted quickly. One minor problem was the internet reception which was only just ok and kept dropping out. You really need a car if you like going to the coast too.

This little boutique hotel oozes traditional Andalusian charm and class. The owners are fantastic, the rooms are so quaint and the location is right in the heart of the Pueblo. Highly recommend this beautiful little hotel!

Fantastic place to stay, comfortable warm and cosy , absolutely spotless, very friendly and welcoming owner and staff, highly recommended

Me n my husband very happy with the room so clean n beautiful view n very friendly owner give us tips about malaga etc, we have nice time stay here 100%recommend

My recent stay at Hotel Pueblo must be my fifteenth by now….! It is a truly outstanding little hotel run by a team of exceptional professionals - especially Susanne; an outstanding host. 11/10 underplays how good the hotel is. It cannot be bettered; at any price.

The entire hotel is superb. The location could not be better with views out of the front to the local bars and cafes and the back onto a quiet square. The rooms are immaculate and offer everything you could could want. I'd be hard pressed to find a better hotel with the same star rating.

This was the perfect location for a New Year break. Good public transport system. Loads to see and do right on my doorstep. Very warm atmosphere locally with variety of bars and restaurants. Very comfortable, quiet room.

Very cute small hotel. Extremely welcomimng staff. If possible, ask for a room at the side of Plaza Andalusia. It's a very charming little square with palm trees and a fountain and quiet at night. You will love it!

Great. Our fourth time here! Absolutely spotless rooms & public areas. The owner, Susanne is available 24/7 to help. Very unique small property in the heart on the Pueblo! Staff are all extremely friendly & knowledgeable! Next 2 long weekends are booked!

We stayed at the Hotel Pueblo one night. Our room was spotlessly clean and all the little things needed for a comfortable stay were provided. The bed was super comfy, Suzanne and her staff were charming, helpful and efficient. Prices were very reasonable, and the taxi that was ordered for us at 5am for the airport was punctual. I can highly recommend this Hotel.

I travelled alone and stayed 3 days in room nr 3 on the groundfloor with bath and 2 in room nr 10 2nd floor with a shower. Both were at the back and had fantastic views, either on a nice little plaza with a fountain or over the roofs to the sea from a nice terrace. Nothing to be said about the service, the help for luggage, the cleaning or other services. Susanna, the lady owner is the most charming host you can dream of. I certainly will go back there as soon as possible. If you are looking for calm and peace in an authentic andalusian atmosphere close to restaurants, Hôtel Pueblo is THE place you should stay.

We loved this place! Spent most of our time watching the dolphins swimming around but they have a good variety of animals. The canteen had a good choice of food (although we didn’t eat there) and there were a few shows on throughout the day. You can also leave and return the same day if you want to come back for a show etc. Only downside is the crocodile wasn’t on show because they are renovating the exhibit. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

This zoo, primarily focused on water animals, offers a decent experience. While not extraordinary, it's a good option for a quick visit, made more convenient by the free parking available. The small size doesn't detract from the enjoyment, and the highlight is undoubtedly the impressive dolphins' performance. A solid choice for a day out with aquatic wonders.

Cute but small zoo, definitely great for kids with a delightful dolphin show that should not be missed. If possible buy the tickets online as they are cheaper. It is a lovely environment showcasing various animals from around the world of which a few are within an aviary which can be walked through allowing you to get close with a few birds and monkeys. Other animals are housed within clean enclosures allowing everyone to see them easily. There are a few educational talks introducing certain animals throughout the day along with the option to take a picture with a sea lion. Overall however, the dolphin show is what made the price worth it, so I definitely recommend not missing it. Additionally try to avoid the front 4 rows of seats as they are below water level which impedes your view of the performance.

Visit was good. A nice range of animals. Dolphin show was excellent, advise you get seats at show early. We did so but purely by chance and a lot of people were sitting for it early. No taxis available outside but a nice short walk down to the main road by the beach. Also beside a big park if you wanted to spend time in there. Was a little pricey but prices have gone up everywhere so it is to be expected. The park is small when I compare it to others I have been to over the years. Look for discount codes on leaflets etc and buy tickets online

This is a very small park. But most disappointing was paying over €100 for a penguin experience and being told we can feed or touch the penguins just sit on a seat while they are close by. You can take photos only they can take a photo with their camera and to get it you must buy it from the shop at the end. As a photographer I wasn’t expecting much but the photos were absolutely terrible but felt the need to buy so we could show our friends we got to see the penguins up close.

Spent about two hours here and had no wait entering as it is off season. Many more animals than anticipated which made it enjoyable. Dolphin shows are at 12:00, 14:00 and 17:00 (April 2022). I would plan to get here between 1-2 hours before or after the shows so that you don’t have to wait around like we did. Probably the best dolphin show we have seen, just a shame it only lasted 15 minutes, we would have liked to see more. Sit towards the back if you don’t want to get splashed. Tickets are a bit pricey at €24 but if you consider the welfare, care and variety of the animals it is understandable. Tickets can be brought on the Selwo marina website in advanced to save money. You can also pay extra for animal experiences or photographs. Several ice cream stalls / American food areas. A nice half a day out!

Not as many animals as you would like for the entry price, but definitely worth it if you get a combined with the cable car or other park. The dolphin shows are the highlight and it's worth seeing more than one. Food and drinks inside are expensive. Talks are worth going to but the sound is terrible - very difficult to hear. Very clean and well kept and the animals are definitely well cared for.

The staff are really knowledgeable about the animals and try and put across the perspective of the animal in question. We did the seal and dolphin encounter and sometimes they don’t do a command and they can’t be forced which is absolutely fine. The physicality of the animals are healthy (visually) and they very much tell people about the environment and to stop throwing rubbish onto the floor/the ocean and seas. It’s a smaller sized area but the main point is care for the animals not for our entertainment. The pod of dolphins also seem content with one another and with their trainers which is very important.

We visited selwo marina today. Mainly to see the penguins! We found it very interesting, so the animals seem well looked after and it looked very clean. It’s not a very big place and we were there about 2 hours. As a disabled person I got my carer in free but you have to prove your disability. I did this with my blue badge that I thankfully had in the car but just be aware. I’m not sure what other roof they accept but me doing in a wheelchair wasn’t proof enough. The penguins were amazing.

Lots to see and do and the shows were very interesting. I thought 30€ for 2 photos with the dolphin was actually reasonable. All the staff were super friendly and informative. It’s quite small is the only thing so you can get round and do it all quite quick. Works out cheaper if you buy multiple excursions at once. My girls loved it, lots of animals to see

Fairly small ZOO, you have to time your visit right. The exhibitions themselves are nothing special, certainly not worth the ticket price. But twice a day you get a series of shows (or "educational talks") which are exactly what you wanna see. You can learn something about penguins, then walk amongst the monkeys, then see parrots up close, and end it all with a dolphin show. Then and only then it's really worth the visit.

Lovely day out. You get to sit back and watch the dolphins dart round and play with balls. Penguins flapping and diving around, there's a wide range of things to see here. Prices are reasonable and there's places to eat. Well worth the trip.

A nice small animal park located in the city of Benalmadena. The dolphin show was their main attraction. Kids enjoy this place seeing different kinds of birds and marine animals like sea lion, dolphins. And if you are here, don't forget to take a walk of this city, it's a beautiful cute little city.

Great experience visiting the park. Super hot day, but worth it. The dolphins presentation was super cool. The penguins area was a bit crowded after the presentation under the sun of dolphins due to the heat. Nice birds and reptiles. Better arrive early in the morning when it's opening.

(Translated by Google) A great park 🌟 I hope they open it again (Original) Un Gran parque 🌟 espero que lo vuelvan a abrir
