4* Holiday Village Costa del Sol

Holiday Village Costa del Sol

There are heaps of spots to soak in at the super-sized Holiday Village Costa del Sol – from the nearby sandy swathe to the pools at the Beach Club.

This place is perched on the outskirts of Benalmadena, which means it’s got the space to sprawl out. As such, you can expect an Aerial Adventure course, two playgrounds, four restaurants (themed restaurants open from 1st April - Oct) and a spa with a pool.

A beach club (Open from 1st April - 31st October) across the road is the hotel’s trump card. It adds more pools into the mix, including ones with slides, a pirate ship and a wave machine. There’s a restaurant down here, too. Plus, the main buffet restaurant, outside courtyard seating area and lobby's getting a whole new look for 2025.

What's Included:

• Return flights from Bristol
• 7 nights accommodation

• All inclusive

  Star Rating: ****

Facilities

Restaurant & Bar

As well as a buffet place, there's an American Diner (open from 1st April - 31st October) and an Italian restaurant to sort out cravings for lasange and big bowls of penne. An al fresco Beach Club restaurant* is open between mid-April and mid-September, too. The bars include one at the pool and another overlooking the sea, plus an Irish-themed pub with Guinness on offer. And there’s a snack bar serving up light bites during the day. - Buffet restaurant - Restaurant in the Beach Club* - Oh My Burger | American Diner - Snack bar - Don Genaro | Italian restaurant - Piano bar - Pool bar - Irish pub bar - Bar - A la carte dining - Kids' dining

Pool

There’s nothing boring about the pool scene here. There's one with elephant-shaped jet hoses, a second with a giant pirate ship, and another that has a wave machine between mid-April and mid-September. Tots have their own splash pool, and there’s a pair of luxurious seaview Jacuzzis® with sunken water loungers. The main pool’s a big lagoon-style number with a separate section for little ones.

Sports & Activities

Away from the all-action pool scene, the activities roster ticks off circus skills workshops, snorkelling and crazy golf. In the glitzy games arcade, you’ll find foosball and air hockey. HV Clubs, meanwhile, put on everything from sensory sessions for tiny ones and Aeroball for teens.

Entertainment

Head for the open-air theatre for pop and cabaret shows, catch films in the mini cinema, or pull up a seat in the Irish bar for sports on the big screen. There's a list of clubs on hand for kids, too. HV Creche caters for babies aged up to 35 months, kids aged 3 to 9 get HV Clubs, and for youngsters aged between 10 and 12, there's HV Crew. Teens get a different place to head to – they can make TikTok videos, learn graffiti art or watch films at The Zone.
