Exploring the local Area:
The apartment is an ideal base from which to explore the surrounding area. Coastal towns of Puerto Banus, Marbella, San Pedro and Estepona are all within fifteen minutes drive. Puerto Banus with its famous marina, restaurants and designer shopping; Marbella town - a shopper's paradise. The typically Andulician 'Old Quarter' of the town is packed with interesting places to visit as well as an array of places to eat and drink along many pedestrianised traditional whitewashed narrow street and squares - as is Estepona, famous for its many festivals and processions. San Pedro with its safe, sandy beaches and beachfront promenade is only five minutes away. Further inland the quaint mountain village of Benahavis provides many great restaurants with spectacular views. Also well worth a visit are Istan, Ronda and Mijas all offering fabulous views and excellent restaurant facilities. Cancelada is also famous for its restaurants only 2 kms down the road. Seiwo Safari is short drive away
Slightly further a field:
Well worth a drive to the cities of Seville, Granada and Cordoba, full of history, culture and venues of interest for all. Gibraltar is only one hours drive along the coast with its caves, monkeys, cable car and tax free shopping.
In Winter Sierra Nevarda is a must place to ski!
Activities for the family:
There are two great water parks to enjoy at Mijas/Fuengirola and Torremolimos. Also for younger children is Tivoli World, Sea Life Center, Crocodile Park And Selwo Safari. Local opportunities abound for fishing, golf, horse riding, mountain biking, cycling, diving, mountaineering, paragliding, sailing, walking, water skiing, and wind surfing.
