La Santa Maria, Benalmádena Overview
La Santa Maria is located in Benalmádena, Spain. Rated 9.5 out of 10 based on 36 guest reviews.
La Santa Maria is a family-friendly base in Benalmádena, Spain, set on C. Torrequebrada and well placed for mixing beach time with day trips. With a guest rating of 9.5/10 from 36 reviews, the strongest recurring theme is how smoothly stays run, particularly around cleanliness and care between visits, which many guests mention as reassuring. Rooms are non-smoking and the property uses air conditioning, so evenings stay comfortable even when the coast is busy. The outdoor swimming pool and terrace give you a simple rhythm for the day: swim, cool down, then linger outside without needing to plan every hour.
If you’re looking beyond the immediate area, Playa La Cala is about 1 km away for an easy coastal reset, while Benalmádena Marina is roughly 2 km for promenades, waterfront atmosphere, and casual evening strolls. For a bigger outing, Caminito del Rey is around 40 km and is the kind of excursion many travelers build into a longer Benalmádena holiday. Guests also tend to like the practical touch of offsite parking with discounted rates available, which helps if you’re arriving by car.
La Santa Maria is best for families and small groups who want a calm, well-managed stay with straightforward amenities rather than a nightlife-focused address. It’s also a good fit for couples who prefer quiet mornings, because the non-smoking environment and consistent cleaning standards are repeatedly noted in feedback. Check-in runs from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM, and check-out is at 11:00 AM.
