We had a full house for the “Back to the 40’s” Show at the Moonlight on Monday evening! Hundreds of people enjoyed a great evening of singing and dancing and judging by the applause, the night was a great success.
Here’s a few photos I took throughout the show as well as a short video with various clips.(please excuse the video editing ;-))
Winter Wedding in the Sun
We have many couples who choose Sunset Beach Club for their special day. The majority of weddings take place in the “higher” season months – typically from April to October – as people like to play it safe with the weather and prefer the warmer months.
That’s all very well, but the downside is that weddings in the high season tend to be considerably more expensive; hiring of wedding venues, accommodation, it all adds up. What most people do not realise is that the weather here on the Costa del Sol is generally very good in the winter months. Yes, we get some rain but we also get lots of sun too! With average winter temperatures (November to March) of 19ºC, a winter wedding in Spain might just be the right option for you.
Well, we’ve got a solution for those looking to save money and searching for a cheaper Spanish wedding option; Our new winter wedding packages are perfect for couples who would like to get married in Spain but are on a tight budget; you can save up to €1000 compared to a summer wedding. We have a range of packages which include seafront blessings or church ceremonies; to give you an idea, to can get a winter wedding package for €6200. What’s included in this price? We’ve highlighted the main items in the list below:
And if you think that’s great value, wait until you hear what your guests pay for a room in the hotel…..During the winter months we have special room rates which start at €56 per room per night (you can get 3 adults in each room) including full buffet breakfast!

Group photo just before heading to La Cala Golf
Last week, 40 golfers from the Dublin Gas Golf Society stayed with us at Sunset. It was a short break for the lads (3 Nights), however, they managed to squeeze in 3 rounds of golf at our sister Resort of La Cala, and a little night life too!!!(The photo was taken on the Friday morning, just before boarding the bus that would take them to the golf course – as you may notice there aren’t quite 40 in the photo, I guess they had a bit of a late night!).
Congratulations to Annemie and Susana from our Golf & Leisure Desk for doing a great job organising the groups stay!
Costa del Soul - The best Soul Music at Sunset Beach Club
At the end of October, we welcome back, for the 2nd year running, Gold Soul – a well established UK Soul event promoter – and their week long “Costa del Soul” event.
Sunset Beach Club will become a haven for Soul music enthusiasts who will enjoy a week of the best soul tunes and, of course, the hotel’s fantastic facilities.
Some of the UK’s best DJ’s will fly in for the event and will delight fans with their mix of Northern Soul, Modern Anthems, Motown and 5 decades of great soul music. The fun begins each day with some light sessions by the pool (14:00 to 16:00) Sun, sea, sangria and some great soul! From 18:00 to 21:00 you can enjoy some more light sessions in the Panorama Bar, making the most of happy our and the amazing views.
However, the real party begins at 21:00 hrs in the Moonlight Bar! Get ready for 7 nights of dancing to the best soul music as the DJ’s take to the stage! (Nige Brown, Chris King, John Poole, Dave Evison and Rob Thomas are just some of the DJ’s flying in).
This week long event is hosted by Kev Roberts – one of the main forces in Northern Soul and Retro Pop music – and we expect to accommodate many fans flying down from the UK specially for the event. Anyone interested in the event can go to the Goldsoul website at www.goldsoul.co.uk, where you can buy specific packages which include accommodation and entrance to the daily events.
If there are soul fans living locally on the Costa del Sol, you are more than welcome to come down to Sunset Beach Club and join in the fun. Tickets will be available at the door each evening (€10 per night).
Although the weather wasn’t as good as we would have wished for, yesterday’s wedding went very well and was enjoyed by all; someone certainly must have enjoyed themselves as we found a very nice pair of shoes next to Reception this morning! (See photo below) Anyone know who they belong to?
Anyone know who these shoes belong to?
The shoes somehow made their way to the bay window area next to Reception and have remained there all day. Now before anyone has a go at the housekeeping team for not removing them, we actually decided to leave them there and see if the owner decided to retrieve them, but nothing yet….. probably a little embarrassed! 😉
It really is our very own Cinderella story as yesterday’s wedding even had a horse and carriage to take the bride and groom to the church. Not sure if they turned in to a pumpkin and mice at the end of the night but those shoes are definitely still looking for an owner!
Horse & Carriage for Yesterday's Wedding

The lucky winners are Natasha Cray and Gary Thornton!
Congratulations to both of you and we hope to see you at Sunset Beach Club in the very near future!
