The Kempinski Hotel Bahía Beach Resort & Spa boasts a fabulous location right on the beach with stunning sea views and beautiful beachfront promenades to take long walks along. While some guests felt it was slightly isolated, others loved the peaceful Spanish destination which was perfect for rest and relaxation. The hotel's position made it a great location for easy access to Estepona, though it was a bit far from Malaga airport. Despite being situated between a grotty public beach and a loud motorway, guests still liked the hotel's location, praising the friendly staff, good quality rooms and easy access to nearby attractions. Be aware, however, that Laguna Village no longer exists and guests reported the beach looking bad with no beach beds available. Nevertheless, it's an idyllic spot to escape and unwind by the sea.
