Where abouts in the costa del sol are you??
Also what's the hotel? As am looking at all inc holidays at the moment.
Benalmadena:

Great if you have kids as there's a pool at the hotel, a lot of pools and slides at the beach club, and the kid's club runs from 10am-6pm every day and you can leave the kids there pretty much as long as you like (although they don't feed them so you have to take them out for lunch or let them starve). And all the rooms are junior suites, so you have a large double (twin pushed together) in the master bedroom and a sofa bed which is also a pull out twin / double in the lounge so the kids are in a different room.
The all inclusive also includes all soft drinks and "national brand" drinks (i.e. vodka, whiskey, beer etc you've never heard of but still gets you pissed) at the hotel and the beach club until midnight.
It's also fairly close to the beach, about a 500m walk which is enough to discourage lazy people from walking there and the beach is far enough from the town and other hotels that it's not very busy. Although we're here outside school holidays, so not sure how much busier it will get during peak times.
