Maravillas - Language School - Fedele Benalmádena

Muy buena escuela! Estudié español al colegio Maravillas 6 meses. Los profesores y organización son top! Recomiendo esta escuela por 100%

I stayed in Benalmádena and visited Maravillas for three weeks this year. The school is completely different from schools in Germany I know (I don't mean primary school or college) and dang I loved it! The rooms looked typical for Spain and had modern tech, it was clean and the teachers were just perfect. They always were friendly, helped wherever they could and they have such a good humour! Thanks to that and thanks to my international class, we basically laughed for the whole school day. Especially Carolina, my tutor, had a fine sense of humour and could explain everything perfectly. Thanks to that, I improved my Spanish far more than in my many years in secondary school.The school offered many activities (cinema, kayaking, cooking etc) and excursions (Granada, Mijas, Sevilla, Ronda, Córdoba, etc), quite a few for free (for Granada you only had to pay for the transport and entries but not for the tour guide), and tutoring after school when you had some questions left was for free as well. I lived in an apartment right next to Maravillas that belongs to the school and had my own room but a shared bath. Every few days a nice housecleaner would come and check if everything is all right. She even did the dishes when we hadn't time to wash them even though it wasn't her job! The neighbors were really friendly as well and with every day I could talk more and more with them, especially with the friendly old man with his puppy :)At my last day, I took my language exam, passed and got my Spanish certificate which is a great help in my job.Thank you Maravillas and my dear classmates for this awesome time! It was totally worth it!

Just spent 2 weeks at Colegio Maravillas on an intensive Spanish course. I could not fault it. The facilities are excellent - spotless classrooms, toilets etc. But the biggest attraction is the staff. The teachers that I had were, without fail, enthusiastic, experienced, organised and fun. They made learning interesting and enjoyable. The support staff were also great. Loved every minute and would highly recommend.

I am an American student that attended Colegio Maravillas in 2018 for three weeks in the summer and had an amazing time. I met so many people from lots of different countries (mainly other European countries) and the experience was very unique. In the program i participated in, we had classes for around 3 hours a day, Monday to Friday, and in the afternoon we would have an activity, like going to the beach or going on an excursion to a nearby city. Most of the teachers and counselors were super fun and genuinely wanted to be there. The activities ranged from kayaking, walking around cities, visiting old castles, and swimming at pools and beaches. The food was great and there were options for people with food restrictions. I visited with a group from my school and we stayed with host families. Beware of the hills and make sure you wear comfortable shoes since in Benalmádena, you walk everywhere. Overall a really nice experience and would definitely recommend.

THEY STILL KEEP MY MONEY!!! AND DO NOT REFUND ! I paid for a spanish course and I was alone in a old appartement this is not residence at all!! What’s the point? It’s better to pay an hotel if it’s for stay alone … they first told me that i will be in a residence and AFTER PAIEMENT they changed to an appartement … i had no choices to accept it because they first took my money … mistake by us and they did not refunded me all my money.. liar and stole ! Never again!!

I love this language school. I have been attending off and on since January 2019 and every time I return, the teachers remember me and greet and welcome me so warmly. Even now during the pandemic, the classes continue and they are careful with sanitary measures to ensure safety. I would not hesitate to recommend this school!

Estaría bien que le comentaseis al monitor o a los mismos niños que de vez en cuando salen en grupo (son bastantes) a dar vueltas por las calles, que las aceras no están solo hechas para ellos, que hay mas gente y que dejen espacio.Gracias.

Maravilloso! I love this language school. The teachers are wonderful and there are always outings, lectures and tutoring offered after class time. The tutoring is free and many of the lectures and outings are free also. There are a few outings that have an additional charge but that is because of their is an admission fee or a fee for transportation. My teachers are very experienced language teachers - they know the right mix of pedagogy and conversation/cultural learning. When my head is about to split open with grammatical things, they insert conversation and cultural and practical lessons. Whew! what a relief and so rich! I highly recommend this school. I give very few 5 stars in my reviews but Colegio Maravillas deserves all 5 stars.

Muy buena la comida que prepara cada día la amable y simpática Rocío. Animo a probar las ensaladas de Marta también :)

I loved the time spent at Benalmádena through Colegio Maravillas back then. Still, I like to think back to the good days I had. Colegio Maravillas organised the whole program very well. I've learned a lot in spanish and I'm glad the teachers taught us that well. Everyone was way too kind. I enjoyed my time there and miss it a lot. Still keeping in touch with a few cool people who have gone through the same program. Totally recommended
