“The best located property ever!”

The best

The appartment was ideally situated - restaurants and shops within a 1 minute walk! Any additional questions eg Wifi code, were answered immediately. There were more than enough sunbeds arounds the selection of pools, and there was even a poolside cafe!

Nothing - the apartment was excellent value for money. We had the most relaxing time. We were able to walk to the old town within 10 minutes and to everywhere else even quicker!

“Positives and negatives”

The best

Positives - location is brilliant, walking distance to the restaurants, bars, supermarkets and your right on the beach, the Italian down the road is amazing bonou it was called. Positives - the complex and apartment is very clean. You constantly see the cleaners cleaning the reception area. Negatives - we were apartment 108 and the music from the Irish bar underneath is very noisy and on until late. Negatives - the pools don’t get sun on them until 1 pm so if you want a good spot you need to get down there at 7am and que until 9 am when they open to pay for your mattress. This causes a lot of arguments in the morning with people pushing in. Negatives - I came back to the room one day and found a maintenance man working in the bathroom. I called Daniele to say please could you give me a heads up next time as sometimes my children chill in the room. She said she would do that and was unaware maintenance was entering the room. 2 days later my son was chilling in the room and phoned me panicked that three men were downstairs. He had cut his foot open and was on crutches so was u able to get to the door. My husband ran upstairs and told the maintenance men you should or arranged this with us or let us know. My son was really scared! They siliconed a tiny patch in the bathroom I’m not sure why three of them needed to attend. I called Daniele and told her this had upset me as I don’t want strange men in my apartment with my kids inside. She told me they have a right to enter whenever they want without letting me know. I find this unacceptable, we would have allowed them in anytime but I would have liked a heads up to make sure my child was not in the room on there own. Negative - my child cut his foot really bad on the ping pong table, I asked security do they have a medical kit he said no and walked away. I ran to the life guard who looked at the cut which was quite bad and needed stitches he looked at the cut and started shaking and couldn’t even put the cleaner on it and gave it to my husband, I would of thought a life guard would of been able to deal with this clearly not.

“Fabulous apartments in an amazing location - our third time staying here.”

The best

We recently stayed at Skol for the third time. We don’t normally return to the same place/apartment but there’s something very special about Marbella and Skol apartments which has made us happy to return each year. The apartment block is in a perfect location - right by the promenade and nearby to lots of nice restaurants, shops and cafes. The apartment itself was clean and spacious. The balconies are a real joy to us - both have the most magnificent views, they really do take your breath away. The apartment block itself is well maintained with lots of amenities. The only thing to highlight was the need to queue early for a sun lounger - these are available from 9am daily but we realised people started to queue from 8am to purchase this and to ensure a good spot - though to be honest there are many loungers and most areas get the sun all day. We also overheard other guests say that people from outside the apartments were using the loungers which was a little frustrating as these are for residents only. The onsite cafe is perfect to pick up a drink or snack and the staff on reception at the apartments are really nice and they’re always on hand to assist. If you’re considering visiting Skol, we would urge you to do so. You will not be disappointed. We can’t wait to come back again!

“Desappointed”

The best

Unfortunately, our experience at this apartment was far below expectations, and we feel it's our responsibility to warn future guests. Upon arrival, we immediately discovered that one of the beds was broken, which forced my husband to sleep on the sofa for one night — during a trip we had planned to celebrate our wedding anniversary, after a 7-hour drive. A fix was only provided late into the stay, by which time the damage was already done. The most concerning issue was the attitude of the property manager, Daniela. Instead of being understanding or supportive, she made serious accusations and showed a complete lack of empathy. The way she treated us — as if we were inventing the problem or trying to cause trouble — was shocking. We honestly felt like we might be dealing with a scam-like situation. Another important point: the apartment you see in the photos may not be the one you get. Daniela manages several units in the same building, and it is never clearly stated which one you're actually booking. This leads to disappointment as soon as you check in. Furthermore, although pool access is mentioned as a feature, you must rent a sunbed to use it — this is mandatory, and not clearly stated anywhere. Contrary to older reviews saying it's 2€ per day, the cost in 2025 is now 3€ per day, making the stay more expensive than expected. We have always trusted Booking.com for our travels, and we hope this review helps future guests make more informed decisions — and that the platform takes appropriate action regarding the manager’s conduct.

“Great appartment for a short stay in Marbella”

The best

Lovely big apartment with beautiful views, nice location in Marbella with big pool area and close to the beach

Was a difficult check in process early hours the security struggled to find our booking and was saying there was no way to contact the host which was frustrating 1am, but this was resolved after 40 minutes and the host afterwards was friendly in contact
