The Costa del Sol region

The Costa Del Sol welcomes more than two million people a year who arrive at Malaga international airport and head to one of the many resorts located along this stretch of coastline from Gibraltar in the west to Nerja in the east.

The most well known resorts lie west of Malaga beginning with Torremolinos, Benalmadena, Fuengirola and Mijas Costa. Further along the coast lies Marbella with its famous marina at Puerto Banus, Estepona, Sotogrande and finally Gibraltar.

With the Costa del Sol weather giving average annual temperatures of 18ºC and over 300 days of sunshine per year it isn't difficult to understand why it is one of Europe's top holiday destinations.

There are around 70 Costa del Sol golf courses on the "Costa del Golf" which can be played all year round as well as a whole range of other activities available such as sailing, scuba diving, horse riding, dolphin safaris, etc. The list is endless.

Away from the coast there are numerous excursions into the real Spain with the cities of Ronda, Seville, Cordoba and Granada all accessible for day tours. For the more adventurous you can also take a 15km trip across the Straits of Gibraltar to visit Tangier in Morocco.

The Benalmadena / Benalmadena Costa area

Benalmadena has almost 10km of blue flag beaches, some of which are in delightful small coves. The cleanliness of the beaches is surprising and with sun loungers and shades available for rent all the way along the front you are spoilt for choice on where to relax. The Apartment is only 200 meters from the beach.

The marina of Benalmadena Costa is the focal point for Benalmadena's social scene and has been tastefully developed. This is a 20 min walk along the promenade from the apartment. It can handle more than 1,000 boats & yachts of all types and is central to the resort. From the marina you can walk all the way along a flat promenade to Torremolinos, with plenty of bars and restaurants on the way. In fact, you'll find all the eating out options you'd expect of an established resort; from fish and chip shops to quaint tapas bars and plenty of restaurants with an international theme.

There's plenty entertainment to amuse the whole family. Tivoli World amusement park in nearby Arroyo de la Miel has Wild West and flamenco shows and a cable-car ride to the mountain top, there are the ususual breath taking rides for the younger ons & a lovely area for the smaller ones with quaint carousels. This is a great evening out & has plenty of eating places & a short taxi ride 5 mins. Equally popular are the Selwo Marina Dolphinarium (10 mins walk) and the Sealife Centre at marina, which has the biggest shark collection in Europe. There are water-sports facilities at the yacht club and plenty of golf courses in the vicinity. By night there is no end of bars and nightclubs to while away the hours.

Above Benalmadena Costa on the side of the mountain is Benalmadena Pueblo, which is still an attractive old Spanish village with the typical whitewashed houses on cobbled streets..

La Paloma Park 10 minute walk away is a beautiful park, where animals are roam freely, rabits, chickens, peacocks. The park has three bar / cafe's where you can stop and take in the beautiful vews with a glass of wine or just a coffee. There are children's play areas within the park, a lovely place to have a picnic when you want a break from the beach.

Indoor ice skating, swimming pool & gymnasium, located in Arroyo de la Miel (Club de Hielo) about a 15/20 minute walk. There is a large water park in Torremolinos short taxi ride.

Malaga city is 30 minutes by train from Arroyo de la Miel station, 15/20 minute walk.

Marbella & Puerto Banus being 20 minutes drive away.

Numerous Low Cost Airlines fly to Malaga from all over the UK and Europe and real bargains can be found if you book early.

Once at Malaga Airport, a taxi will take you to Benalmadena in 15/20 minutes and should cost between 23/25 Euros, depending on the time of day or night. There also many car hire companies with offices in the airport.

Alternatively the coastal train stops right at the airport and takes 20-25 minutes to El Pinillo Station which is just short taxi ride, 5 mins from the apartment.

“Better than most for location ,transport,furnishings and cleanliness.” This rental would suit anyone who likes to be near absolutely everything and who doesnt want to spend hours travelling from the airport to get there.All family members are catered for both in the accommodation and the pool ,the grandchildren loved to walk out of the door in swimming costumes.Also the beach is minutes away. Try Paloma park,Fuengerola and many other markets,the kids so enjoyed haggling with the stallholders. We have booked another week. Response: Location is great, so many facilities all within a few minutes walk, no car necessary and if you want to travel further, local taxi or buses are available just round corner from apartment..

“Accommodation in quiet location.” Have been coming to Benalmadena for the last 10yrs staying in various apartments this apartment suited us very well as our friends have an apartment very close by. Even though you are very close to shops and restaurants and the beech you would not realise as the location once inside is very quite. The apartment is very clean and tidy with everything you need, the kitchen is well equipped with a nice size fridge and cooker and most important a washing machine. Both bedrooms are very comfortable also both bathrooms have very good showers which I find as the most important requirement. There is a nice clean pool not very big but adequate as it was not used very much while we were there. Response: We feel the apartment is very well situated, a hidden gem, plenty of restaurants, amenities to make your stay more comfortable.
