“Spirit Hotel Benalmadena Beach strikes me as a contemporary and thoughtfully designed space, where I imagine the rooftop bar offers genuinely stunning sea views. From what I gather, the emphasis here is on wellness, especially with that extensive spa, and I suspect this creates a particularly relaxing atmosphere; it's the kind of detail that elevates a stay beyond just the basics.”
