Back here again, been coming for nearly 10 years and just love the place. Location great, free bus in to Puerto Banus, 10mins walk to the beach, with a few really nice restaurants and in the immediate vicinity there are a few souvenir and convenience shops, restaurants, cafes and large supermarket. Now on to the hotel, just amazing, rooms great, always worthwhile looking at room options and book what you need, as in my opinion worthwhile booking a room of the standard you want, in the location you want with the view you want if you can. Housekeeping team a great, rooms was always immaculate. Food was the usual great standard, always a themed section that changed daily, fresh pizzas and pastas, and a really good variety. I do agree that there seems to be an issue with the hot holding of food and the current equipment does not seem to hold the temperature, therefore some buffet items were cold, however a lot of food is being cooked on live stations, so I would always wait and take freshly prepared from the Chef The entertainment team have always been amazing here, but this year seems to maybe be a bigger team? seemed to be a lot going on for most of the day. A big shout out to Lourdes, great to see her again and really does make a difference The bar staff in the main have been there for a long time and its always great to see familiar faces, always happy and so hard working, and must mention Ismail, the lifeguard, who probably doesnt get the recognition he deserves, goes above and beyond his "normal" duties and is always getting involved and checking on guests, a great guy. Really does feel like home from home and looking forward to booking again Thank You Cortijo Blanco for another great holiday!!!!!!

“Geat Value. Great Time.”

7th time here so you know this will be a good review. If you're after a laid back atmosphere, good drinks, friendly guests & staff then this is ideal.

7th time here so you know this will be a good review. If you're after a laid back atmosphere, good drinks, friendly guests & staff then this is ideal. The hotel isn't in a major resort but is about 10 mins walk from beach. Peurto Banus & San Pedro are about 30 mins walk or 10E in taxi. Hotel is low rise & grounds are well maintained & clean with many trees & flowers. We pay for a Superior room as we like a balcony. Standard rooms just have juliette balconies FYI. Rooms are basic but adequate & cleaned daily. There's a main pool with usual activities, but we use the quieter pool. Never a problem getting sun beds. Can see some reviews mention the food quality but we've always found it to be good. 2 fish & 2 meats cooked fresh, plus casseroles etc. Paella, pizza & pasta as back ups. Some days better than others but that's how all inclusives are. Hotel entertainment is you're standard fayre. Music nights are good & even the more "interesting" shows are good enough given the excellent bar! Now a big shout out to the bar staff. Bar can get busy but you never wait long. Some staff have your drinks ready while you queue. Some are friendlier than others but all really good... except I'm afraid to say (didn't really want to have to do this) Carlos. On every visit he seems to go out of his way to be rude. Now, it can't be an easy job & people have different personalities, but surely a please, thankyou or even eye contact isn't difficult. We honestly thought it was just us, but after speaking to other return guests (and there are a lot) others felt the same. Weirdly not all TBF so he must pick his victims LOL! It's a shame because it lets down an otherwise first class team but there it is. There's also a token system at the bar now. You have to hand tokens in to get a glass each & return your glasses for next drink. I suppose it saves clearing tables & people ordering multiple drinks. It's a bit of a pain but fine with us. Other than those two very minor points we had a great time again. We've paid a lot more over the years to stay at 4 star hotels but this is just as good, if not better than many of them. Thanks to all staff again you do a great job. It's always appreciated. See you soon.
