There are also safari parks and water parks nearby or football coaching if you want to keep the boys happy. If you fancy some ten pin bowling or some shopping in fashionable shops and boutiques try La Canada (pronounced Canyada) a huge shopping centre only a 15-20 minutes from Los Lagos in the Marbella direction. A further 5 - 10 minutes further on and you arrive at the millionaires hang-out in beautiful Puerto Banus for even more great shops, restaurants and fabulous yachts in the port.
The Elviria area is a golfers paradise with many fine courses located nearby. Apart from the magnificent 18 hole Santa Maria course there is a great 9 hole par three course at Greenlife Golf less than 10 minutes from Los Lagos (just up the hill from old town Elviria).

Flights to Malaga: Some airlines that fly to Malaga from the UK include Easyjet www.easyjet.com Flybe.com Globespan www.flyglobespan.com Monarch www.flymonarch.com
For an extensive list of what UK airports and airlines fly to Malaga visit www.malaga-airport-guide.com/Flights-to-Malaga.html . This website also gives a lot of other information on Malaga airport and the surrounding area.
For car hire we recommend booking in advance through www.doyouspain.com who get the best prices from the on airport car companies. The downside of this is that there may be a large queue at the company with the best price at the time. However, the booking through doyouspain is only a reservation, so no money changes hands until you collect the car. It has been known that previous guests have abandoned their car-hire reservation because of a long queue and struck a deal with one of the local firms where there was no queue.
Malaga airport is going through major redevelopment until Summer 2008. The on airport car hire companies tend to reserve a space for you at the airport enabling easy drop-off parking and access to the terminal on your return home.
Driving directions.
Take the AP7/E15 toll road towards Cadiz on leaving the airport (keep right for slip road on). Leave the toll road at the Calahonda exit and take the A7/N340 coast road in the direction of Marbella. Elviria / Santa Maria exit is at the 192 km marker and is the exit after Cabopino and then Las Chappas.
Nearby Landmarks: Look out for the tall Don Carlos hotel on the horizon off to the left just after the Las Chappas exit (at night the sign is lit in large blue letters). On seeing this hotel you are only half a mile to the turning. You will also pass 2 Campsa petrol stations opposite each other not long after the Don Carlos first comes into view.
Further detailed directions available in the information pack you will receive on completion of booking..

Guestbook
Thanks for everything, your apartment is lovely and the kids just loved the TV. We spent the mornings at the beach and at the apartment in the afternoon. We have many special memories to remind us of our holiday at Los Lagos.
Lee & Lorn Campbell (Christmas 2006)
What a great place to spend the month of November. Had a great first week "holidaying" and wining and dining with our extravagant son and daughter-in-law, followed by 4 weeks of my husband and I "living" in what is a beautiful home. My husband is a keen bowler and was able to take out a monthly membership with the British run bowling club attached to Santa Maria Golf Club, so that kept him out from under my feet!
Can't wait to go back next year. Thanks for a great time.
Maureen & Bill Layburn (28/10/2006 - 05/12/2006)
The apartment is beautiful and the views from the large balcony amazing. Nice big pool just below the apartment nicely landscaped and well equipped area around the pool. Plenty of nice restaurants only a cab ride away if you don't want to take the car and good supermarkets nearby for the self-catering aspect. Particularly enjoyed the nearby Greenlife 9 hole golf course with it's beautiful setting and lovely restaurant overlooking the large pond.
A real home from home on holiday. Thanks very much for a wonderful week. Hoping to return next June.
Rob and Bernie Layburn (28/10 - 05/11/2006)
