Great position with many facilities.
This complex is in a great position, right on the beach and next to the boardwalk. It has a really large outdoor pool and an indooor one, a laundrette, restaurant and bar on the site The gardens in particular are really lovely and well kept. There are several very good and stylish restaurants next to the complex but the only small supermarket was closed meaning a longish walk across the road bridge and beyond to the nearest shop - not great if carrying wine, bottles wate etc etc. The apartment was spacious and well equipped but i would have liked a change of towels and bedlinen (without having to pay for this) as we were staying for seven nights.

Good value for money
Stayed here 3 times before so knew what to expect. Lovely complex with parking, security gate, clean & comfortable accommodation. Great cafe/restaurant on the site and numerous restaurants and a supermarket just round the corner. We had paid for terrace with sea view but the view of the sea could only be seen if you stood up on the terrace! Shame as we couldn't sit with our drinks and look out. The only view was a wall. I'll double check when we return.

Overall a decrnt property, good sized rooms, all you need for a self catering holiday. The property is just a little dated.
Surprisingly a deep pool almost 2.5m a nice change. If you want to eat out almost every kind of restaurant out front, but does cost, no cheap and cheerful types.
The onsite shop not to overpriced.
Staff all good.
We are a family of 4, 2 adults and 2 kids 17 & 15.
We did have some issues with the booking itself as we got a call from macdonal resorts asking if we could move rooms part way through the holiday, i said no and they made the rooms work, but i was very disappointed in this, as the woman on the phone did not appear to care or understand why it could be a issue.

Excellent vacation spot if you are traveling with small children. We enjoyed the kids pool, access to the beach and availability of the high chair for our toddler. If your kid is over the age of 5 - there are lots of activities for them organized by the property which looked fun. A few restaurants and a small grocery store were very handy! We will definitely consider this place if traveling to Malaga again!

Doña Lola resort - another good McDonald resort
It was a good experience- this one was our second stay at a McDonald resort in Mijas. On arrival the person who did our checking was wonderful and very helpful (Antonio). Property was in good condition although our apartment building did not have an elevator(though we did not need it). Service staff was very helpful- we had an issue with the electricity and it was fixed immediately by replacing the electrical breaker. Same 4 replacement towels/toilet paper/kitchen paper/dishwasher salt/rinse aid. Facilities were very good: pool, restaurants, etc. Scheduled Events were also good: ABBA, wine tasting, sports events etc. Pool restaurant food and service was excellent. My only complaint and not trying to be picky is that the bed mattresses were hard same 4 the pillows. The other thing is that when I went to return my keys the gentleman at the reception offer me help with a cab ( we were driving), but he did not ask about how was my stay or something similar
