An adults-only 5-star hotel in Benalmádena with stunning Mediterranean sea views from its clifftop position. Ultra-modern design with expansive terraces, infinity pools, and a comprehensive spa. Excellent Costa del Sol base for beach, golf, and Málaga city exploration.
Vincci Selección Aleysa is an adults-only 5-star hotel perched on the seafront in Benalmádena on the Costa del Sol in Málaga province. The hotel's elevated position on the Avenida del Mar delivers sweeping views across the Mediterranean towards Africa on clear days, while the contemporary architecture — clean lines, expansive glass terraces, and open-plan public spaces — maximises the sea outlook throughout the property. All 195 rooms and suites face the sea, with generous private terraces or balconies; superior and suite categories include Jacuzzis or plunge pools. The infinity pool complex is the centrepiece of the guest experience, with layered pool terraces cascading towards the coast. The full-service spa offers thermal circuits, treatment rooms, and a fitness suite with sea views. Two restaurants cover both Andalusian and Mediterranean cuisine; the rooftop bar is a popular spot at sunset. Benalmádena sits midway along the Costa del Sol, making the hotel a convenient base: Málaga city is 25 minutes by train from Benalmádena-Arroyo de la Miel station (a 10-minute walk from the hotel), Torremolinos is five minutes in the opposite direction, and Marbella is 40 minutes by car. The town of Benalmádena itself has a marina, a cable car up Calamorro mountain, and a sea-life aquarium. As an adults-only property, the hotel maintains a peaceful atmosphere throughout, particularly valued by couples and solo travellers seeking a quiet Costa del Sol base without family resort noise.

Tips for visiting
- Request a high-floor room on the sea side — every room has a sea view but upper floors offer unobstructed panoramas beyond the terrace below.
- The train to Málaga city departs from Benalmádena-Arroyo de la Miel station frequently and takes under 30 minutes — far easier than driving into the city.
- The infinity pool fills up by mid-morning in summer; placing towels before 9am is standard practice.
- The cable car to the summit of Calamorro mountain near Benalmádena offers excellent views and is worth combining with a half-day trip.
- Late May and early June offer warm beach weather with lower hotel rates before the peak July–August season.
