The Costa del Sol/Malaga region
The Costa del Sol is known as the sunshine coast, the reason being the amount of sunshine for most of the year; long hot summers, warm spring and autumn where you can sit by the pool or swim in the Mediterranean sea. Perfect year round climate.
Head up the coast to Marbella to hang out with the rich and famous in this shoppers’ paradise resort. People watch in Puerto Banus, the millionaires’ playground with the most amazing boats. Smaller boats can be gazed at Sotogrando marina whilst sipping a cocktail, which is 10 minutes down the coast. If you fancy a trip up the Rock then 20 minutes away is Gibraltar, home of the pesky monkeys and fantastic duty free bargains.
Further afield explore the amazing gorge and bullring of Ronda, about 2 hours away, or alternatively take the mountain train from Algeciras, with views that you can’t get from the road. Head to Cadiz, Seville, Cordoba and Granada or to the whitewashed villages such as Mijas. Use the apartment as a base to explore, even go ski-ing in the Sierra Nevada mountains, 2½ hours drive away.
The area is one of the best golfing capitals of Europe with numerous courses to choose from, such as the world famous home of the Ryder Cup, Valderama, San Roque and Alcaidesa which are all close by. La Duquesa Golf and Country Club is only five minutes down the road, with wonderful sea and mountain views and for the non-golfers, tennis, squash and day spa.
Duquesa / Manilva area
Aldea Beach is 5 minutes walk away. It has many local Chiringuitos (beach restaurants), that serve fresh fish, salads and cold drinks, open from spring to autumn. There is a wonderful traditional Spanish restaurant within 300 metres which serves fantastic fresh suckling pig, along with many other local national dishes.
Castillo – stroll down the beach and explore the remains the castle. Relax with a few shops, restaurants and bars.
Port of Duquesa - quaint cosmopolitan port 5 mins drive away or a leisurely 40 minute walk from the apartment. Cosmopolitan feel with many lively bars and plenty of restaurants. There is an internet café in Duquesa.
Sabinillas – nearest town just past Duquesa. Lovely beach promenade, quiet town, very Spanish feel.
Estepona – about 20 minutes drive. Large port, choice of many restaurants and bars. Attractive to walk about, long sandy beach blue flag beach with promenade.
Casares – 20 minutes drive. Stunning white village (pueblo) up in the mountains. Lovely views. Couple of bars/restaurants.
How to get there
The apartment is 60 minutes from Malaga airport or 20 minutes from Gibraltar. The low cost airlines fly to both airports. A good website is www.skyscanner.net to search all the routes available with the numerous different carriers.
From Malaga take the excellent toll road AP7 (less than €10) and hardly any traffic. Alternatively take the A7 coastal road with spectacular views.
Car hire is highly recommended, try www. carjet.com, www.amigoautos.com, www.bravocarhire.co.uk.
