The mid-range, 229-room Myramar Fuengirola is located in a mostly quiet, residential area just outside of the Fuengirola city center. From the hotel, the beach is about a 15-minute walk, which may be deemed too far for some. The hotel opened in 2002, and while the rooms have a dated look, the rest of the hotel -- from the restaurants to the outdoor pool deck -- is decidedly modern and has an unexpected stylish feel. Despite needing a decor update, rooms have modern amenities such as Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, air-conditioning, and well-equipped kitchenettes. Note, however, that in-room safes and use of the gym and spa facilities requires a fee. Travelers looking to be right on the beach may prefer Florida Spa, though rooms lack kitchenettes and rates are a bit higher.

The 393-room Hotel Monarque Fuengirola Park is a mid-range, family-friendly property with a great location near ample bars and restaurants, and offering direct beach access via an underpass. Though the medium-sized outdoor pool, heated indoor pool, and spa treatment rooms are solid amenities, furnishings throughout are awfully dated and showing wear. Rooms, despite having an old-fashioned appearance, include modern features such as flat-screen TVs, air-conditioning, and free Wi-Fi. All rooms also have a well-sized, furnished terrace. There are no fitness facilities here, though, so travelers looking for a hotel with both fitness and spa facilities may prefer the Hotel IPV Palace & Spa.

The mid-range Hotel El Puerto by Pierre Vacances offers guests a hard-to-beat location just across from the beach and lively promenade. With the convenient location comes a caveat, though, as previous guests have complained of nighttime noise from both passersby and fellow guests. The 310 guest rooms have either refurbished modern decor or dated furnishings still awaiting renovation. Each, however, has air-conditioning, free Wi-Fi (though it's reportedly unreliable), a flat-screen TV, safe, and furnished balcony; mini-fridges can be rented from reception. Features are limited to a lovely ocean-view rooftop pool and restaurant that receives mediocre reviews. Families should consider the Fuengirola Beach Aparthotel, which offers far more on-site features including a kids' club and daily entertainment.

Hotel Apartamentos Pyr Fuengirola is a dated, mid-range apartment-style property with a great location just a few minutes' walk from the beach and marina, plus numerous bars and restaurants. The 220 studios and apartments have simple, old-fashioned decor in need of a refresh, but they come with kitchens, air-conditioning, free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, and furnished balconies. A large outdoor pool, separate kiddy pool, and rooftop solarium provide on-site relaxation, but there are no entertainment or gym facilities. A seasonal poolside snack bar and buffet breakfast are available, though most guests stick to buying drinks on-site and food elsewhere. On the downside, past guests have complained of late-night noise and not enough pool loungers. Families may prefer the nearby Fuengirola Beach Aparthotel, which offers more kid-friendly features, plus a tennis court and fitness center.

The adult-only Angela Hotel is an upper-middle-range property with an attractive location right on the promenade and beach. The hotel provides sunbeds on the beach for a fee, while loungers around the infinity pool area are free for guests. The 261 rooms have sunny decor, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi, but there's a charge for mini-fridges. All rooms have furnished balconies, though some pick up nighttime noise. Half-board options are available at the two well-reviewed restaurants, though it's important to note that guests are expected to wear formal attire for dinner service in the main restaurant. Most guests skew toward the older side and evening entertainment caters that age group. It's worth comparing rates with the Hotel IPV Palace & Spa, which has a few more facilities, though it isn't exclusively for adults.

Florida Spa is an upper-middle-range hotel with 184 rooms located on the beach. Though the hotel offers a pool and multiple on-site restaurants and bars, the most notable feature is undoubtedly its modern spa facilities. There, guests can utilize two indoor pools, saunas, and receive a variety of treatments. Rooms are well-sized, though the decor is a bit dated; bathrooms, however, are modern and amenities include safes and flat-screen TVs. All rooms have a furnished balcony, too, with at least partial sea views. The hotel seems to cater predominantly to older couples, so families looking for a similar experience with more kid-friendly features might prefer Iberostar Marbella Coral Beach.

Las Rampas is a lower-middle-range hotel with a central location in Fuengirola, just a five-minute walk from the beach. Guests are also within easy walking distance of public transportation, bars, restaurants, and entertainment options. The hotel updated their room linens starting in 2014, but the rooms are largely still dated and in need of a refurbishment. While the 159 rooms have small flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and air-conditioning, they lack mini-fridges and kettles, plus safes require a fee. Additionally, only a handful have balconies. Though there is much to do in the surrounding area, the on-site facilities are limited to a small outdoor pool, buffet restaurant, and meeting room. Families traveling to the Costa del Sol area may prefer Tryp Guadalmar in Malaga, which has more kid-friendly features.

The upper-middle-range DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Resort & Spa Reserva del Higueron is located in a quiet residential area a 15-minute drive from Malaga Airport. The property is stylish and modern, particularly the 177 guest rooms with minimalist IKEA-like furniture and color-tinted glass. All rooms have furnished balconies, though some overlook the street rather than the gardens and sea beyond. Three outdoor pools, excellent spa facilities, and multiple dining options keep guests occupied on-site, but some come with a fee. The location may be a negative for some -- there isn't much within waking distance, and it's far from popular spots in Fuengirola. The hotel does offer a free shuttle service down to the beach for its guests, however. Couples may prefer the adult-only Angela Hotel, which is located along the beach and promenade.

The 320-room Occidental Fuengirola is a mid-range property with a prime beachfront location on the promenade in Fuengirola, about a 15-minute walk from the town center. Rooms have modern amenities such as air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and mini-fridges, but Wi-Fi and safes come at a cost. Features include an outdoor pool, spa with sauna and whirlpool, and multiple restaurants and bars -- though food receives less-than-stellar reviews. Also note that use of the sauna requires a fee. In general, this hotel caters primarily to couples, so families may prefer the more kid-friendly Apartamentos NuriaSol nearby.

The 230-room Globales Gardenia is a dated, mid-range hotel with an excellent waterfront location and easy access to the beach. There are plenty of bars and restaurants within easy walking distance, though some popular spots in the area (such as Bioparc Fuengirola) require a car to reach. A solid range of features includes an outdoor pool with small, separate kiddy pool, heated indoor pool and adjacent sauna, a game room, and outdoor playground. Clean rooms are in need of a refresh and lack mini-fridges, but they have flat-screen TVs and furnished balconies with sea views. The buffet restaurant is average, but all rates include a quality and substantial breakfast. Travelers may prefer the Fuengirola Beach Aparthotel, which has a more central location and additional kid-friendly amenities, though it's farther from the beach.
