The Costa del Sol/Malaga region
You want a holiday where you can do what you want, when you want. You need rest but also diversion and the variety that an established international resort offers. You want to stay in an apartment that is comfortable, functional and perfectly located, where attention to detail and a few homely touches give added value to your stay. You want a secure environment with sun-bathing facilities, a cafe specially for residents, swimming-pools and a garden gate which opens onto a fun, pedestrians only beach area. This is what we offer. Marbella is, furthermore, renowned for its year-round mild climate. The streets are decorated with honeysuckle, mimosa, tamarind trees and every variety of palm imaginable. Jasmine and bougainvillea drape garden walls and the sides of buildings. The promenade features tiled marble and cafes and restaurants every few hundred yards. The centre of Marbella, where Edificio Skol is located, has all the amenities you need but is relaxed and quiet. Within a short stroll from the apartment are supermarkets, bars, shops and restaurants - you won't need a car unless you plan to play golf or explore the hinterland with its 'pueblos blancos'. Many budget car hire firms have offices near the apartment building. Edificio Skol has become a Marbella landmark. Its central, seafront location and quirky sixties design emphasizes its origins as a pioneering emblem of the Costa del Sol. The extensive gardens, residents' café and 3 swimming-pools with sunbeds (cost approx. 2 euros per day) just off the beach make it the envy of most other buildings in the vicinity. The facade has recently been totally renovated and it has become a symbol of the carefree, year-round holiday atmosphere that pervades Marbella.
Marbella / Seawalk Beach La Fontanilla area
The Old Town is wonderful for walking, shopping and eating. It is typically Andalusian with its Moorish walls, old churches and town square ringed with orange trees. It has been well maintained and is within walking distance of the flat. There are lots of open-air restaurants in and around the town square. Marbella's beaches and palm tree-lined promenade are just outside the garden gate as you can see from our photo "Marbella". The gate of the complex gives on to the seafront walk. The promenade now extends all the way to Puerto Banus (approx. 5 kilometers) and is a very pleasant walk. You can catch a boat back to the harbour adjacent to the apartment building (cost around 5 euros). The beaches in front of Skol feature freshwater showers, sunbeds and a little farther along, beachside barbecue bars that serve fresh grilled fish and seafood at attractive prices.
How to get there
Fly to Malaga airport and take the bus to Marbella. At the bus station, take a taxi to Edificio Skol, which is right in front of the tourist office by the sea front. It is a very short ride and easy to find.
