Are you looking for the perfect place for a relaxing vacation in southern Malaga, Spain? The beachfront resort is the result of a complete renovation and unification of the Riu Belplaya and Riu Costa Lago hotels. So here’s what to expect at ClubHotel Riu Costa del Sol.
With a fresh and contemporary style in the 4-star category, services are available such as free WiFi throughout the hotel and a 24-hour All-Inclusive program.
The property houses 550 guest rooms, some of which are small 2-room suites featuring separate bedrooms and living areas. All were fully renovated in 2017 with new furnishings and decor in white and blue hues, designed to mesh with the adjacent sea. Surprisingly, standard rooms have more floor space than the suites, as though bedroom space has been sacrificed in order to incorporate the separate living area. Nevertheless, all accommodations are clean and comfortable, with spacious bathrooms that feature modern fixtures, tilework in natural tones, and glass walk-in showers. Rooms also feature satellite TV, air conditioning, a mini-refrigerator, and a balcony or terrace.

It has four outdoor swimming pools and one heated indoor pool, in addition to a fun and enticing splash park for kids. The most spectacular of all is the beachfront main pool, with over 400 square meters, which is surrounded by an inviting solarium.
