The Costa del Sol region


The Costa Del Sol enjoys some of the warmest temperatures in the whole of Europe with a staggering 320 average sunny days per year.
The Marbella / Elviria area
Elviria is more or less completely self contained and offers a choice of major supermarkets, banks, resort hotels like the Marriott resort, and two main commercial centres, CC Elviria and CC Pino golf, which offer a number and variety of shops, bars and restaurants. Any other needs can be met by Marbella which is 10 minutes away or head towards Fuengirola and visit the Myramar shopping centre.
Santa Maria Golf is situated in Elviria, and is regarded as one of the best and most attractive golf courses and golf developments on the coast. Amenities include the 19th century clubhouse, lounges and snooker room and the "19th Hole " restaurant located on the terrace overlooking the golf course and hills. There are also tennis courts, a swimming pool and a lawn bowls club on the grounds. There are many other courses close to hand including Santa Clara and Rio Real to name just two.
By all accounts Elviria is and always has been extremely green, there are trees and flora everywhere. It's not until you take a drive around that you realise just how beautiful it is.
Elviria is close to the local beach,, so getting down to the shore is not a problem and, when you do, you can enjoy some of the best beaches on the coast with plenty of chiringuitos, beach bars and restaurants to keep you happy and enjoying a sangria or two.

This is my 4th time at this apartment and its just like home from home. This is a closed complex and my son has met lots of friends who own apartments around the complex, over the last couple of years. Also this apartment is accesible for wheelchair users and its perfect for my mum-in-law who is disabled and who loves coming on holiday with us and sitting in the lovely extended terrace. I can completely recommend this apartment to families who are looking for a apartment which is child friendly but not too noisy, just right. |

Guestbook for The Retreat
Best hotel on the coast at the right price. Mike Miller Pro golfer.
Visited this homely apartment with my husband, child and disabled mother-in-law. Our stay was not only pleasant but catered for all our needs.. The apartment was excellent and it had all the amenities that you would have back home. The complex has 4 swimming pools and the gardens are in superb condition. I would truly recommend this apartment. McColgan family.
"I would just like to thank Marion and Dave for such a wonderful place to stay. The apartment was spectacular with two very large bathrooms that my wheelchair could access easily. It was extremely clean and the agent (Alan) was extremely helpful pointing out various local attractions that were accessible for me. We hope to stay again some time in the very near future.Rob & Linda Bishop Summer 2009
