The Costa del Sol/Malaga region

CLIMATE - With its superb microclimate this is an all year round holiday destination. The municipality records an average year round temperature of 18º C. Around Easter time and Autumn the temperature is usually in the mid 20's, rising to higher 20's to 30's and beyond during the summer.

POSITION - in the centre of the western Costa del Sol, between the slopes of the Sierra Blanca mountain range and the coast, Marbella and Puerto Banus is 56 kilometres (35 miles) from Málaga, the vibrant, hugely interesting and colourful capital of Andalucia.

PLACES OF INTEREST - There is much to discover in the region and not just the famous resorts of PUERTO BANUS, MARBELLA (see below), ESTEPONA and GIBRALTAR.

LOCAL TOWNS ALSO INCLUDE - SAN PEDRO DE ALCANTARA, just a few minutes away by car, a real Spanish town with many fairly priced restaurants and shops plus a lovely long beach and promenade. ISTAN - only a 15/20 min drive into the mountains, this 'pueblos blancos' (white mountain village) has breathtaking views over the valley and reservoir below. BENAHAVIS - the most mountainous village on the western Costa del Sol is located some 15 miles from Los Naranjos. Renowned for its restaurants, it is often called the dining room of Costa del Sol. It holds nine of the 60+ golfcourses in Costa del Sol.

CULTURAL CITIES - Many beautiful, cultural cities are easily accessible by car. The Moorish city of CORDOBA with its ancient ramparts or GRANADA and the dramatic and picturesque Alhambra palace. The bustling and colourful SEVILLE, Spain's 4th largest city , famous for flamenco, bullfighting and orange blossom. Only an hour away is RHONDA one of Spain's oldest towns, visit El Mercadillo, one of the oldest and most handsome bullrings in Spain or El Tajo, the stunning 360ft deep gorge which divides the old and "new" towns. MALAGA should not be overlooked and is in fact a very pleasant port city with it's leafy Paseo del Parque, a huge variety of shops along the Calle Marqués de Larios, the Alcazabar and the Picasso Museum.

PUEBLOS BLANCOS - The mountains are scattered with the famous "pueblos blancos", whitewashed mountaintop villages. Ojen and Istan are only a15/20 minute drive with Casares just a little further. Walking is a delight in the many national park areas just inland from the coast.

RELAXATION - But if all you want to do is relax on the beach then you have literally miles of clean, sandy beach from which to choose, many of the resorts having beautiful, long promenades easy for those with pushchairs or wheelchairs. The 'chiringuitos' on the beach are a delight with their freshly caught sardines barbecued over the sand filled boats! Whilst the many bars fronting the ports of Banus and Marbella provide endless hours of fun simply 'people watching'!

Puerto Banus / Los Naranjos De Marbella area

BEACHES - 2O/25 minutes walk to the golden sands of Puerto Banus with beds available, boating facilities, many delightful beach bars selling all varieties of freshly prepared fish (cold beer and Tinto Verano of course!). Stroll along the Golden Mile using the beautiful promenade that skirts the beach, all the way to Marbella. Further beaches to suit all tastes, from the quiet, to the highly sophisticated Nikki Beach with it's white leather double sofa loungers for those with champagne tastes. For karting, jet skiing, other water sports, bars and restaurants, Funny Beach is a must, just 12 minutes from the apartment, east of Marbella.

Everything from colourful markets to El Corte Ingles, a classy department store, the designer boutiques of cosmopolitan Banus and the award winning La Canada shopping and entertainments complex (bowling and cinema). Not forgetting my favourite!
