Los Monteros is an older style 5 star Hotel, it originally dates from 1963. There are parts which could do with a refresh, but it has a certain mid century charm that I like and the staff and service are excellent. The breakfast is good too. Our room dated from about 2002, but was still very clean and spacious. The beach club which is separate from the Hotel was a bit of a dissapointment, and all at extra cost, pretentious, but without the service to match and all seems a bit of a rip off when you're already paying top dollar for your room.

Lovely property, good service, just needs a little sprucing up.

We had an amazing stay at the hotel. It's beautiful, so peaceful, and it was super relaxing!

First thing to be aware of is the false advertising that is on their website/travel agent/google when searching for this hotel. It will show an incredible pool with cabanas and the sea in the background, when in fact that is a separate beach club 10min drive away that you need to pay for (La Cabane). The pool at the hotel that is for guest use is okay, but can be busy with kids and generally the sun beds are very close together with limited number of parasoles. Felt a bit more like a 3 star than any luxury hotel I have stayed at before. Service is rather poor in the breakfast area and the hotel bar area. The servers don’t seem to care for any of the guests and generally are quite rude. The waiters are so heavy handed, we could not wait to finish breakfast to get away from the noise/clanging. Never a relaxing start to the day The location is about a 10min drive to the centre of Marbella/Old Town (taxi is c. €12 one way). Generally speaking you will need a car/take taxis everywhere as there is nothing walking distance. This hotel is very secluded, not even a supermarket in easy walking distance or a little minimart available on premise. So just be warned you will need to spend extra cash to get to places/do things as there is very little available on site. We stayed in a 2 bed suite, the rooms are ok size however the 2nd bedroom has no windows to outside. It is a room that you go to the toilet in, shower in, and sleep in with a window that opens up to the corridor only

Stayed two nights for my hen do. In general, amazing hotel! Five star indeed! Even from days before our trip, they have been very helpful answering all our queries. Very efficient indeed especially Antonio who has been very patient with all my questions. Where do I start: As gold member, already got the free spa. They also allowed us free early check in and gave us free 8 glasses of cava. Rooms are brilliant. Spacious and spotless. Double room looks like a mini suite with good view from the balcony. I also love the added welcome chocolates! The spa is to die for! Been to another 5 star hotel nearby, but Los monteros spa is by far the best. Staff from the reception and bar are all very kind and friendly. After being out all day, we dropped by at the bar to relax. We didn’t order anything just yet but the friendly staff instantly gave us glasses of water and nibbles for free. They even allowed us to roam around the hotel with our photographer for photos. They really took care of us. The breakfast was amazing! First class indeed, so make sure to include it to your booking! Only downside is not walking distance to city centre but taxis/uber are always available and only costs us €4-€10 for four people. There is Aldi supermarket 10mins walking distance from the hotel. Beach is also walking distance. I can’t say about their famous La Cabane beach club as it was still closed when we visited. Nevertheless, will definitely stay here again when we visit Marbella!

The staff was very friendly and courteous! Beautiful mountain and ocean views! Outstanding breakfast!

Lovely hotel breakfast include it in your booking as it is first class

Another amazing stay at the hotel, already booked to go back.
