01 · In a sentence

Hacienda el Sueño - Holiday Resort in Málaga, open MayAugust.

Hacienda el Sueño sits on the rolling hills of the Mijas countryside, commanding views across the Costa del Sol landscape toward the Mediterranean.

This 4-star hotel property spans manicured gardens and terraced grounds at 300+ meters elevation, offering both intimate garden ceremonies and expansive indoor reception spaces.

The venue balances rural Andalusian character with modern resort amenities, hosting up to 150 guests across its facilities.

We arrived by taxi, and looked forward at eating at restaurant after a long day of travel. It turned out that the restaurant is closed. No mini market either. So no food and drinks available. The staff wasn't very helful, they thought it is "not a big deal". We got no information before arriving that the restaurant is closed "for a couple of days". We left week later, restaurant still closed. We had to rent a car. Hacienda el sueno offered no compensation at all. I'm pretty dissapointed after a week. View was nice though.
