Iberostar Waves Málaga Playa
Family-friendly beachfront hotel in Málaga
Did you know that, at Iberostar Waves Málaga Playa (previously Iberostar Málaga Playa), you can step straight out of the hotel and enjoy the beach, and also get to know the best of what Granada and Málaga have to offer? Unwind at this spacious Andalusian-style hotel, surrounded by gardens. There are rooms and apartments designed for families and a buffet restaurant with an outdoor terrace on which you can enjoy the best weather in Europe. For the little ones, there’s a pool with slides as well as endless activities at our Star Camp. The beach is one minute away, plus all the beauty of Andalusia is within easy reach. We’re surrounded by the charming towns of Nerja, Frigiliana and Ronda. And just an hour away is the spectacular Alhambra of Granada, a World Heritage Site and jewel in Spain’s crown. What more could you wish for on your holiday?

A universe of experiences
SPA Sensations
Your body also needs a holiday. The time has arrived to disconnect in the SPA Sensations. Why not try the sauna? Or would you prefer a massage? There are plenty to choose from: with aromatic oils, to eliminate toxins, with volcanic rocks, sports or even reflexology. If what you want is a beauty programme, don’t miss the chance to pamper yourself with one of our facial and body treatments: moisturising, cleansing or exfoliating are just some of the treatments available in this relaxing spa on the Costa del Sol. You can also show off your pedicure and manicure around the pool after visiting the spa.
- Opening Hours: 10:00–19:00
- The swimming pool is heated seasonally
Star Camp
In Star Camp, you’ll find a programme of children’s activities that combines fun, emotional development and learning to make your next family holiday a unique experience. The activities and the spaces are designed to be perfectly suited to the age of participants:
Kangaroo: 0–3 years old (pop-up service in low season)
Monkey: 4–6 years old
Dolphin: 7–12 years old
Eagle: 13–15 years old (July and August)
The hotel also has a pool with slides for children between 80 cm and 1.50 m tall. For safety reasons, access to this pool is restricted for adults.
Facilities for cyclists
The hotel has a room where cyclists can take care of, store and repair their bikes. This facility is equipped for both small and large groups. Both the city of Málaga and the surrounding region are ideal for exploring for yourself by bike. There are green paths and long stretches of road to choose from.
To hire a bicycle or organise a group outing, get in touch with the Cycling Friendly team. For more information, visit their website.
Fit & Fun
With the Fit&Fun activity programme, you can get fit while having fun by taking part in aerobics, water aerobics, Zumba, and Pilates, and by participating in sports contests with other families. But that’s not all: if you prefer, you can use the fitness room or play football or basketball as well. It’ll be hard to decide which activity to choose! The Costa del Sol provides a unique setting for water sports like surfing. At the hotel, you can ask for information about scuba diving sessions, as well as boat, paddleboarding, and bicycle excursions.
Golf
Fancy a round of golf in Málaga? Very close to the Iberostar Waves Málaga Playa hotel, in the town of Caleta Vélez, is Baviera Golf, the best Pay&Play course in Spain. Don’t miss the chance to improve your swing while enjoying views of the Mediterranean!
