Benalmádena allows you to organise a getaway for two around the Mediterranean, seaside strolls and some of its most recognisable spots, such as the Benalmádena marina and the cable car. The focus of this page starts from a specific property and its relationship with the city, without turning the experience into a generic description of the Costa del Sol.
Hotel Las Arenas Affiliated by Meliá is the only Meliá option included in this destination. Its profile as an affiliated hotel, its pool and its location in Benalmádena allow you to alternate quiet moments with outings to explore the coastline and other points of interest in the town.

Spaces and experiences for couples
At Hotel Las Arenas Affiliated by Meliá, the outdoor pool adds a space to slow down during a stay as a couple. The coastal setting allows you to complement those moments of relaxation with strolls by the Mediterranean and outings to explore Benalmádena.
The Affiliated by Meliá character also defines the property's identity within this selection, without the need to compare it with hotels in other destinations. For a honeymoon, anniversary or weekend for two, the experience can be organised around a simple combination: time at the hotel, strolls, gastronomy and discovering the city.
Aspects such as privacy, gastronomy, views or wellness may be important for a couple, but spa facilities or specific romantic services that have not been specifically verified for the hotel are not attributed here.
Benalmádena and its surroundings
Hotel Las Arenas Affiliated by Meliá is located in Benalmádena, next to the town's coastal axis. From this area, your trip can incorporate the promenade and different points linked to the Mediterranean before approaching other parts of the destination.
The Benalmádena marina provides one of the most characteristic settings for a walk by the sea, especially at the end of the day. The Benalmádena cable car offers another perspective of the town and expands the possibilities of a getaway that is not limited solely to the beach.
Thus, the Benalmádena destination is integrated directly into the experience of Hotel Las Arenas Affiliated by Meliá: the sea, strolls and local activities are part of a stay for two with its own identity within the province of Málaga.
How to get there and when to go
Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is the main air gateway to reach Benalmádena. From there, you must continue to the hotel by road or other means of transport. The duration of the journey depends on traffic, the route and the transport chosen.
The best time depends on the type of trip. The warmer months give greater prominence to the pool and the Mediterranean atmosphere, while spring and autumn can be especially suitable for walking and discovering the destination at a more urban pace. It is also possible to plan an off-season getaway focused on gastronomy and shared time.
Tips for choosing a romantic hotel in Benalmádena
When looking for romantic hotels in Benalmádena, it is worth deciding how much prominence you want to give to the sea and how much to plans outside the hotel. A stay on the coast makes it easy to alternate between relaxation and exploring the destination.
It may also be useful to assess the pool, the location and the type of atmosphere you are looking for for a honeymoon, anniversary or romantic getaway.
