This 4-star Hotel Yaramar - Adults Recommended Fuengirola, located just off Los Boliches train and within 25 minutes' walk of Fuengirola Beach, features a swimming pool for guests to take a dip in. Well I suspect the range of food has more to do with Thomson's influence on providing what they believe their customers want so here goes. But to be fair, onions, cucumber, tomatoes were all freshly prepared.After four evenings we gave up on the buffet and ate in local places such as El Choco just around the corner.In general the hotel food was not very warm - again not a problem because a microwave was provided - it's a common complaint about buffet food.The coffee available at breakfast was absolutely the worst ever tasted from a machine. Having started at 7.00pm we were not served with the main course by 9.30pm at which point we gave up and went elsewhere for food. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
