Playa Miguel Beach Club

Playa Miguel Beach Club is a beachfront chiringuito in Torremolinos, one of the busiest resort strips on the Costa del Sol in Málaga. It runs as a hotel, restaurant and beach bar in one, which makes it one of the more complete setups on this stretch of coast.

The sand fills up with hammocks and sunbeds, and the crowd is a mix of families, groups and tourists. It's casual without being rough, trendy without charging extra for it. Live music and DJs run through the day and into the evening.

Reservations are recommended for brunch, lunch and dinner. The place is fully wheelchair accessible and has a kids' menu, so it works well for families. Free street parking is nearby, though finding a spot can be tough in summer.

Rated 4.2 from 2,376 reviews. Most guests leave happy. About 57% give five stars and 25% give four. There's a chunk of one-star reviews, as you'd expect from a busy beachfront spot, but the overall picture is strong.

Food & Drinks at Playa Miguel Beach Club

Cocktails are what most people come for. The bar does a strong drinks list, and sangria is a reliable order too. Coffee and wine both get good marks.

For food, espetos are the thing to order. These traditional Málaga-style grilled sardines are the chiringuito staple. The kitchen covers all-day dining from breakfast and brunch through to late-night bites. Healthy options and small plates round out the menu alongside bigger dishes.

It's a full-service spot, not just a beach bar.
