The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, especially on reception. There is a free bus from mon to sun every hour that takes you into town and to the beach, which was great.
The pool area was great, very clean, even though there were inconsiderates who left their fag ends and rubbish everywhere. The spash bar is great for a quick cheap snack and drink. It also shows films every evening.
For what we paid for this holiday, the hotel was everything we needed and more. Yes it was basic but it was clean, it was friendly and comfortable enough for me.

However, when we arrived I was completely impressed. The rooms and the balcony were clean, and had a fair amount of space.
The pool area was fantastic. The splash bar was a great place to go for breakfast or lunch with cheap food and drink being served until late at night.
Staff at the hotel were friendly (*esp the women in the minimarket).
Internet access and availability to Reps was also great.
The only qualm I had was that even though the reception boasts about exchanging Traveller's Cheques, it very often ran out of money. Meaning we had to either walk to the exchange shop down the hill (*which was closed all weekend) or to the nearest hotel/supermarket.
Overall I had an absolutely fantastic time at Malibu Park and would definately recommend it and go again!!! (*If they'd have me!)

The hotel isn't to far away from Veronicas, about 5 euros in a taxi or a 10-15 minute walk down hill. We usually walked down to the bars and then got a taxi back later on because the hill was fairly steep and not what you needed after a night on the pop.
The staff at the hotel were very helpful and i would not hesitate to visit thes appartments again in the future.

Getting there we were greeted by a freindley desk clerk and within minutes we were booked in and off to our room.
We held our breath before opening the door but very pleasantly surprised when we got a clean smell and a very clean and quite large apartment with a new cooker, kettle, pots and pans, cutlery, fridge, toaster, cups and glasses.
Then opened the curtains to a balcony with a table and 4 chairs which looked onto the childrens swimming pool and Splash Bar.
From 18:00 the splash Bar in Malibu Park had a childrens movie on everynight on a big screen {new releases}

However, we were pleasantly surprised to find that the apartment had obviously just been done out as all the kitchen appliances appeared to be new and there was a faint smell of emulsion paint. I have read some of the other reports about the poor quality of the apartment experienced by others but we would not agree with that at all.
Some relatives of ours were stopping down nearer to the sea front so every day we walked down over the foot bridge and every night hobbled back after much had been imbibed (we were celebrating my cousin's 50th). We did not find the walk a problem and can only say that those who do must be very unfit!
The fact that there was apparently no entertainment didn't bother us as we were out all the time. We did sample a couple of snacks and drinks from the pool bar and found the staff very pleasant and obliging. The food was fine and the place very clean.

We didn't try any food there but beer was ok, cheap enough and snacks looked fine!
The Hotel is hard to rate on location, depends what you want! Us as a young couple were close to Waterpark (like 2 minute walk) close to taxi rank, phones, buses, nice pubs and resteraunts (GO TO PINNOCHIOS) and were a 10 minute walk to some very decent, cheap bars, great restraunts and then another 10-15 mins walk to Veronicas centre. All nice walks, quiet easy with some big but managle hills!
Hotel staff were efficient quick, dealt with most any problem, and had good facilities like money change, you give them 50 euro trav cheque they give you 49 euro cash back, v good rate, internet use, decent cheap enough shop very convienient.
No entertainment of any LIVE variety, but plenty in resort areas from Karaoke, to games, to lively Veronicas, there was however NEW or just in CINEMA movies for free every nite on massive projector screen in the bar such as Shrek 2, Van helsing, Troy, Harry Potter etc etc.
I would reccomend anyone to go to the Malibu but be careful though as this place seemed to change into 18-18's mania within a day.
I say go earlyish June because there was bus loads of idiots turning up on the 26th June onwards while we were there not to bad, but nicer before they arrived! Malibu is a great place for the price and once it is all renevated it will be ace, 3 star + at the least!

The hotel staff all seemed very plesant, apart from the woman in the shop, she didnt seem a fan of the english. The Reps were fantastic, so helpful and funny. The Splash bar was nice, cheap and cheerful, really good atmosphere. The entertainment wasnt great, but enough to keep you busy. I really enjoyed staying at malibu and i am already considering going back, later in the year.
