Malaga City holiday apartment: Malaga

This is a pretty home, with ample space for two adults & 2 small children or one large one! You do really need a car though, as it's OK walking down to town and/or the beach (about 30mins downhill), but it's imperative to get a taxi up - the hill is soooo steep!!! That said the taxis aren't very expensive - about £3.50 (summer 2008). The property is clean & has everything you need - even Sky TV for my teenage son! The owner & her friend, who lives next door, were very helpful. The beach area is lovely - not at all built up - lovely white sand & a crashing surf! Good fun for body surfing! On the whole I enjoyed myself & it's well worth the money.

I stayed at this gorgeous appartment for a week with my elderly and quite frail mother who is in her late 70's over the Easter break. She managed the steps up to the appartment and was extremely happy with the comfortable accommodation provided.The place was very clean, the kitchen had all that you could possibly want and we were delighted to find plenty of very useful information provided by the owner about the area .We were lucky enough to experience both beautiful sunshine and also SNOW which I understood from the locals reaction is pretty uncommon!, It didn't last long but made for beautiful scenery! The views from the appartment are fantastic, a car is very useful as it is in a hilly area but that adds to the charm.The area is NOT English and why would you want that?? stay at home if you want English is what I say. Lovley friendly restaurants close by, useful shops that again you could get anything you wanted from. There is lots to do, plenty of places to visit and experience.Nina is not only a fabulous host but one who cannot do enough to be helpful. In fact we found all the locals we came into contact with to be very friendly and willing to point youin the right direction. The beach is very clean and close by! You are ideally placed for doing lots of sightseeing or if you prefer, you can just laze on the sunny patio, chilled wine in hand and RELAX. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be coming again SOON!

We loved to stay in the flat, which was nice and clean. The view from the terrace was of course the very best. The area is the best in Málaga, we like it because there are not so many tourists. The beaches are nice and all the fish restaurants are very good, you can eat a new place every day for a long time. Lovely, because the Spanish eat there, especially Sunday afternoon is spectacular with everybody out. Although there are a lot of lovely restaurants, we stayed at home for dinner, shopping in the big supermarket down the hill, where we got a lot of nice Spanish things and a lot of fresh fruit and vegetables, and good bread, which we Danish people often miss when travelling. If you want a holiday where you do not meet Spanish people you should stay west of Málaga, Torremolinos, Fuengirola, Marbella, that is where you can get English food and meet people not speaking Spanish.
