Unbelievable Motril Villa: Playa Golf II Luxury Awaits!
Unbelievable Motril Villa: Playa Golf II Luxury Awaits! - A Review That's Actually Real! (And Messy)
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because this isn't your average, sanitized hotel review. We're diving headfirst into Unbelievable Motril Villa: Playa Golf II Luxury Awaits! And let me tell you, the "Unbelievable" part? Yeah, it's not just marketing fluff. (Though, spoiler alert, it does have some fluff).
First Impressions & the All-Important Accessibility: Did My Wheelchair Get a Warm Welcome?
Right, so, accessibility. This is HUGE for me. I’m in a wheelchair, and I’ve been promised “luxury” so many times only to find myself navigating a maze of stairs and tiny doorways. My heart sinks every time. But, thankfully, Playa Golf II mostly delivers.
- Wheelchair Accessible? YES! Crucially, the entrance was ramped, which is huge given that a simple step can make or break your trip. The elevator whisked me up to my room with ease. (A BIG WHEELCHAIR-USER WIN!).
- Inside the Room: The room? Spaciously designed! And even though the "luxury" of the room wasn't perfect and a little aged, the space was fantastic. Plenty of room to maneuver, and grab bars in the bathroom. A true blessing!
- Public Areas: Mostly good. The pool area was easily navigable, and so were the dining areas. The bar, however was a little bit of a squeeze. They could have done with a little more awareness for accessibility, but no deal-breakers
The Internet Chaos & The Sweet, Sweet Wi-Fi
Let's be honest, in this day and age, internet is a need, not a want. So, what’s the Wi-Fi situation?
- Wi-Fi in All Rooms? YES! Free and generally reliable. Thank the lord! I mean, how else am I supposed to, you know, work AND stream mindless reality TV after a day of "luxury?"
- Wi-Fi in Public Areas? Yup. Thankfully. Because sometimes you just need to be out of your room… so I can sit down in a different spot and stare at my phone.
- Internet [LAN]? I didn't personally need it, but it’s there if you’re still living the dial-up dream.
Things to Do & Ways to (Attempt to) Relax: Sauna Dreams & Spa Shenanigans (and Maybe, Regrets)
Okay, the "luxury" part is calling now! Let's talk about the juicy stuff!
- The Spa: Listen, I'm a sucker for a spa. So, I rushed down, visions of massages dancing in my head. They had a sauna and a steam room, and a pool with a view. The view, you know, was just some generic pool with a view, but I imagined it when I closed my eyes, because I was too nervous to relax.
- The Fitness Center: I got my hopes up immediately, as I am a bit of a fitness fanatic. I skipped over to the gym…to find a few machines. I'm not a fan of the word "gym" and "fitness center" as synonyms. They are two separate things that require different efforts and focus. Sigh I gave my body a good ol' workout, but nothing too crazy.
- Pool with view? YES! The view of the sunset! Majestic. Magical. I wanted to go again, just to stare at it.
Cleanliness & Safety: Did I Catch Anything Besides Sunshine?
Safety is key. Especially after, you know, the past few years. Playa Golf II seemed very serious about this!
- Daily Disinfection: Check.
- Anti-Viral Cleaning Products: Check.
- Hygiene Certification: Check.
- Hand Sanitizer Everywhere: Check.
- Room Sanitization Opt-Out: Check. Though honestly, I was fine with the extra clean.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: From Asian Breakfasts to Okay Coffee
Food! My other great love!
- Breakfast [buffet]: They had a whole buffet! Honestly, it felt a little overwhelming. But there was a lot to choose from,
- Asian Breakfast & Cuisine: I did see it.
- Poolside Bar: This was the real MVP. Perfect for those lazy afternoons.
- Coffee/tea in restaurant: Coffee was… okay. Not the best. But hey, I could drink it!
- Restaurants: A la carte, buffet. Plenty of options.
Services and Conveniences: The Good, The Bad, and The Incredibly Convenient
- Concierge: Super helpful.
- Daily Housekeeping: SPOTLESS.
- Elevator: Again, a win!
- Room Service [24-hour]: Brilliant for those late-night snack attacks.
- Cash withdrawal: Check!
- Laundry service: Because I am on vacation and hate doing laundry!
For the Kids: Babysitting, Facilities, and… More Kids
I don’t have kids (thank god!). But they seemed to cater to families!
- Family/child friendly: Yes, very.
Available in All Rooms: The Stuff That Matters
- Air conditioning: Essential.
- Free Wi-Fi: Obviously.
- Hair dryer: Hallelujah!
- Mini bar: Yes!
- Safe box: For peace of mind.
- Wake-up service: Useful!
Getting Around: Parking & Airport Runs
- Car park [free of charge]: YES!
- Airport transfer: They offer it.
My Unfiltered Verdict & A Compelling Offer (Because I Know You Need One):
Okay, so Unbelievable Motril Villa: Playa Golf II Luxury Awaits! isn't perfect in every way. It's a bit… imperfect, which is what makes it feel much more human than a picture-perfect advertisement. But, considering accessibility, the staff, the location, and the overall chill vibe, it's a solid choice.
Here's my absolutely honest take:
The Good:
- Accessibility is a real win.
- The staff is genuinely lovely.
- Location, Location, Location! Close to everything.
- The pool and bar are the perfect hang-out spot.
The Could-Be-Better:
- The perfect touches of "luxury" felt a little more worn than I would have liked.

Okay, buckle up buttercup, because this isn't your grandma's itinerary. This is… survival in Motril. At least, that's what it feels like pre-vacation. Villa Playa Golf II, here we come! I booked it – on a whim, fueled by cheap wine and desperate need for sun – and now I'm convinced this is either going to be a glorious disaster or a tragic, sunburnt blur. Let’s see…
The (Un)Official Motril Mayhem Itinerary: A Belvilla Bedlam Bonanza
Day 1: Arrival & The Great Supermarket Scramble
- Morning (ish, because jet lag): Land in Malaga. Pray the luggage actually arrives. This is the first hurdle. If it doesn't, well, fashion a toga out of a tablecloth at the villa. It's a look. Rent a car – hopefully, without getting swindled by some fast-talking Spaniard. Consider the insurance EVERYTHING.
- Afternoon: Drive to Motril. Scenic route? Maybe. Or maybe I'll get lost in the Sierra Nevada mountains, convinced I’m starring in a low-budget remake of Deliverance. Either way, it’s an adventure.
- Late Afternoon/Early Evening: (The Supermarket of Doom) Okay, THIS is crucial. We’re aiming for a supermarket. Rumors are flying the nearest one is in, I don't know, an industrial estate. Google Maps, don’t fail me now! The panic levels are rising - what if they don't have decent cheese? What if the wine selection is abysmal? I'm practically hyperventilating. This is the key to survival. First, the basics: WATER. Bread. Jamón. And wine. Oh, the wine. If they don't have good wine, I might stage a protest… or at least a dramatic pout. The mental image of my future self, wheeling a cart laden with gourmet cheese and enough chorizo to feed a small army, is making me strangely happy.
- Evening: Settling In & Disaster Dinner (Potentially): Arrive at Villa Playa Golf II. Unpack. Cross fingers the place isn’t a complete dump. Pray the plumbing works, because I need a hot shower after the car journey. Attempt to cook dinner. My cooking skills rival a chimpanzee's, so this could go spectacularly wrong. Pizza delivery on speed dial. Or maybe I’ll burn something. It's a toss-up. Whatever happens, there will be wine. Lots… and lots… of wine.
(Rambling Interlude: The Importance of Wine)
- Wine is not just a beverage; it's a philosophy. A lifestyle. A necessity when faced with the potential chaos of a foreign supermarket. It's a hug in a bottle. A companion in the face of dodgy plumbing. Without it, this entire trip could unravel.
Day 2: Beach Bliss (Maybe) & Granada Dreamin' (Or at Least, Thinking about It)
- Morning: Sleep in. Which will probably be until 10 am. My body clock has no concept of "early."
- Mid-Morning: Head to the beach. Playa de Poniente, specifically. Hope it's not overrun with sunburnt tourists battling for a square foot of sand. Sunscreen: CHECK. Hat: CHECK. Dignity: QUESTIONABLE. We're talking about me, after all.
- Afternoon: Beach time! Hopefully, I soak up some sun. Maybe take a dip in the Mediterranean. (Sharks? Nah, probably not. Fingers crossed.) Will probably end up building a pathetic sandcastle, only to have a rogue wave swallow it whole. It's practically a vacation rite of passage.
- Evening: Granada… The Alhambra. It's the dream. But, the thought of planning, driving, and parking seems frankly exhausting. We’ll consider it, but no promises. There’s a strong chance we’ll end up at a local tapas bar, stuffing our faces with patatas bravas and enjoying the evening.
(Emotional Whim: The Alhamambra and the Burden of Choice) * Granada is the crown jewel of this region, so going is a must. Thinking about the Alhambra, the history, the architecture, it's breathtaking! On the other hand -- the thought of planning, driving, and parking seems exhausting, and the pressure to have a perfect experience? Too much. Also, Tapas and beer. Easy. Decisions, decisions…
Day 3: Golf (Attempted) & Coastal Exploration (Maybe)
- Morning: Well… we are at a golf villa. So, golf. Or, more accurately, the attempt at golf. I swing and I'm an atrocious golfer. Watch me. I have the hand-eye coordination of a newborn kitten. We’ll likely spend more time laughing than actually playing. Hopefully, there’s a bar on the course. (Priorities.)
- Afternoon: Coastal Drive! Perhaps. Again. It's either that or a nap. The coastline is supposed to be beautiful. Exploring quaint villages, maybe eating fresh seafood. This will depend on how many golf balls end up in the ocean.
- Evening: Another dinner at the villa or maybe brave the local restaurants. Hopefully, I can order something without butchering the Spanish language too much. I'm pretty good at pointing and smiling, though. That usually works.
(Quirky Observation: The Spanish and their Afternoon Naps) * They live the good life here, it seems! Afternoon naps, siestas, as they say. It's like they know the secret to a truly relaxed vacation: build it into the schedule! I may consider adopting this practice.
Day 4: Doubling Down: The Market of Motril & The Pursuit of Culinary Greatness (Or at Least, Edible Food)
- Morning: The Motril Market! I've heard it's a sensory overload of fresh produce, spices, and the general buzz of daily life. Challenge: navigate the chaos, practice my butchered Spanish and, most importantly, buy food. This time, I'm aiming for something more ambitious than pizza (although, let's be real, there might be pizza involved).
- Mid-morning: Wandering the market, being absolutely overwhelmed by the sights, smells, and sounds. Bargaining is in order. This is critical. I will attempt to haggle my way to a bargain. Probably fail miserably, but hey, at least I’ll try.
- Afternoon: The Culinary Challenge! I'm going to attempt a Spanish dish, something that involves vegetables, meat, and potentially, olive oil. (I’m currently Googling "easy Spanish recipes for dummies.") This is where our culinary aspirations (and possibly my sanity) will be tested.
- Evening: Hopefully, the dish I cooked is edible, or at least not poisonous. If it’s a success, celebrate with sangria! If it’s a disaster, order pizza. The cycle continues.
(Stream of Consciousness - the true horror of the cooking challenge)
- What have I gotten myself into? I can barely make toast! And now I'm attempting Spanish cuisine, which is probably far more complicated than I'm giving it credit for. Olive oil, a LOT of it is involved, right? And spices? There are SO many. I'm picturing myself standing there, sweating, muttering in a mixture of English and panicked gibberish, accidentally setting something on fire. But, on the other hand, the thought of a delicious, authentic Spanish meal… maybe a little bit of this might be good.
Day 5: Relaxation, Recovery & Departure (Possibly with a Tan)
- Morning: Sleep in. Again. It’s a theme at this point.
- Afternoon: More beach time, sunshine, and… relaxation. Maybe a book. Maybe. If the sun is kind to me.
- Evening: A final, tearful goodbye to the Villa Playa Golf II. Maybe. Or maybe I'll just sneak into the house a few minutes late, because there's more to do! Maybe a final glass of wine, a reflection on the chaos, the laughter, and the near-disasters.
- Late Night: Departure back to the airport. Pray the car rental return is smooth. Pray the flight isn't delayed. Pray that I don't get hopelessly lost.
(Final Thoughts: Reflecting on the Mess) * So, there you have it. My completely unreliable and utterly unpredictable Motril adventure. Will it be perfect? No. Will it be memorable? Absolutely. Will I come back a changed woman, fluent in Spanish and a master chef? Probably not. But I will have had an adventure. I will have eaten good food. I will have hopefully enjoyed the sun. Most importantly, I will have survived.
This itinerary is a rough guide, of course. Expect spontaneous detours, moments of pure bliss, and inevitable mishaps. The real adventure awaits! Wish me luck - I'll need it!

Unbelievable Motril Villa: Playa Golf II Luxury Awaits! - You NEED to Know This (Seriously)
Okay, spill the beans. Is this villa *really* as amazing as it looks in the pictures? I’m skeptical, you know?
Alright, alright, let's be real. You've seen the photos. Gleaming pool, that insane view… I get your skepticism. I was *right* there with you, before I went. And the answer? Mostly… YES. But with a few… *ahem*… caveats. Look, the pool? Gorgeous. Seriously, I spent approximately 80% of my time IN it. The view? Breathtaking. Like, almost-cried-when-the-sun-set breathtaking. But here’s the thing: one of the pool loungers had a slightly wonky leg. Minor, but I almost went arse-over-teakwood a couple of times. And, okay, the Wi-Fi… well, let's just say it sometimes felt like communicating via carrier pigeon. But, hey, you're on vacation! Forced digital detox, right? (Though I HAD to text my neighbor about the rogue goat I swear I saw wandering near the villa, and the frustration grew).
What's the deal with the location? Is it actually near everything? (And by "everything," I mean tapas!)
"Near everything" is a relative term, isn't it? The beach? Literally a stone's throw. Lovely stretch, perfect for morning walks with a coffee (which I, admittedly, only managed once, blame the red wine from dinner). Tapas, you ask? Yes! Motril town is a short drive (definitely not walking distance, unless you're REALLY keen and have a spare 3 hours and a good pair of hiking boots). And the tapas? OMG. Heaven in miniature. But… the driving? Navigating those narrow, winding Spanish roads with a rental car is an experience. Let's just say I earned a few more grey hairs. And parking? Good luck. I swear I spent an entire afternoon circling the town center like a deranged vulture looking for a spot. The villa’s parking was fine though, thank god!
The website says "luxury." Does it *feel* luxurious, or is it just lipstick on a pig?
Okay, "luxury." Let's unpack this. The villa itself? Definitely a cut above. High-end appliances, that huge comfy sofa that swallowed me whole every evening, the fancy coffee machine (which I, surprisingly, managed to operate without setting the kitchen on fire). The bedrooms were plush, the bathrooms were spa-like… you get the picture. But. (There's always a *but*). One of the showers... the water pressure was, shall we say, gentle. Very gentle. Like, a sad, apologetic trickle. And I found a tiny, almost invisible spider in the corner of the master bedroom ceiling one night. I freaked. But hey, even luxury has its imperfections, right? Let it be known, I survived, the spider and I are still in a silent contract.
What about the kitchen? I'm a foodie. Will I be disappointed?
The kitchen… now *that* was a highlight. Seriously, even *I* (who can barely boil an egg) was tempted to get creative. Fully equipped, spacious, and with a stunning view of the pool. I think the oven was practically brand new (or someone must have taken great care of it). I made a brave, and ultimately doomed, attempt at paella one night. It wasn’t pretty. The rice was… let's just say it was *al dente* to the extreme. And maybe I overdid it on the saffron. Burned the bottom, anyway. But the kitchen? It was perfect for wine consumption and general snacking. And the dishwasher? Saved me from a total breakdown.
How private is it, really? I don't want to be overlooked!
Privacy? Pretty darn good. The villa is well-situated, surrounded by greenery (or some other villas, but far enough away to not feel like you’re sharing a sardine can). The pool area is all your own, which is fantastic. I spent HOURS floating around, lost in thought (and occasionally, a large inflatable flamingo). The only time I saw anyone was the gardener, who turned up one morning (which, admittedly, startled me – I was in my swimsuit, not quite ready for human contact). He was very polite, though! All in all, you'll get your peace. And that's a glorious thing.
Okay, hit me with the worst thing that happened. The absolute *lowest* point.
This is the moment. The dark side of paradise. The MOST TERRIBLE thing happened… well, *two* actually, but they're connected. One: I locked myself out on the balcony. Wearing only a robe. At, like, 3 AM. And two: the aforementioned Wi-Fi problem… which, at this point, had taken on a personal vendetta against me. So, I was stranded, in my robe, in the middle of the night, trying to find a signal to use my phone. Which had, by the way, less than 3 bars. It took about 40 minutes of panicked scrambling and awkward contortions to finally get enough signal to call the property manager. They were… understanding. Mortifying. I'll never forget the sheer humiliation of having to explain *that* at 3 AM. The robe was nice, though. Very soft.
Would you go back? Be brutally honest.
Absolutely. Despite the wonky lounger, the rogue spider, the shower pressure issues, the Wi-Fi woes, and the balcony incident? YES. Without a doubt. That view? Unbeatable. That pool? Divine. The peace and quiet (when I wasn't frantically searching for a Wi-Fi signal)? Priceless. And the tapas? WORTH IT. Even the slightly-less-than-perfect bits added character. It’s not a sterile, cookie-cutter vacation. It’s real. It's memorable. And it's a damn good time. Book it. Just… maybe pack a portable Wi-Fi hotspot. You'll thank me later.
