The Area - Benalmadena Pueblo

What to do and where to go locally
The apartment is beautiful and is literally two minutes leisurely walk from the heart of Benalmadena Pueblo one of the most attractive "White Villages" on the Costa del Sol.

The town itself has many bars and excellent restaurants with the added advantage of being only five minutes by taxi to the main beaches and the award winning Marina at Benalmadena with its luxury bars, restaurants, and night-clubs. It takes less time to reach the bustle of Arroyo de la Miel which is full of English and Spanish bars and plenty of International restaurants plus a great shopping centre.

Arroyo also provides a chair lift to the mountain tops where there are fantastic views across to North Africa and wonderful walks on the mountain top. In Arroyo there is a newly constructed Sea-World plus the famous Tivoli Gardens with its theme park and live entertainment shows.

From Arroyo there is a regular bus service connecting all the coastal resorts plus you can take the RENFE coastal railway, which travels every 20 minutes from 6AM until midnight, between Fuengirola and Malaga stopping at every seaside resort en-route.

All of the above are on the doorstep but many visitors find the Benalmadena Pueblo so attractive that they are happy to spend most evenings in the local tapas bars and restaurants or drinking in the beautiful Spanish squares.
 
A Little Further Afield
Visitors wishing to visit other places of interest can drive only forty minutes and explore the famous town of Marbella with its excellent fashion boutiques or take coffee in the beautiful Orange Square or lunch in one of the many delightful restaurants that surround the heart of the old town. Five minutes from Marbella and you arrive at Puerto Banus which is known the World over for its glittering shops, bars and nightclubs plus it fabulous marina and beaches.

A fifty minute drive from the apartment and you have Gibraltar, an hour in the same direction is the fantastic Ronda, travel North from Benalmadena, on a superb free motorway, and in an hour you reach both Granada and the Sierra Nevada’s ski slopes.

Special Entertainment.
All in all there is plenty to do and see or merely turn off and sunbath after hectic late nights in the entertainment bars that abound in the coastal resorts only ten minutes away. Throughout the Summer months there are many live concerts by International artists such as Elton John, Rod Stewart, Brian Adams, UB40 and many others, these are night time spectaculars held at the Mijas Horse Racing Hippodrome. Throughout the summer months race meetings are held every Sunday evening commencing at 11PM and it is a wonderful venue where you can dine in one of the many restaurants or bars and have a flutter.

This area of the Costa del Sol offers so much for all tastes. Our web-site will provide details of special events, shows and concerts throughout the year.
