People favour Costa del Sol or 'Sunshine Coast' for the wonderful climate, golden shores and more importantly for the warm and colourful
Andalucian atmosphere – it's got to be one of Spain's most popular tourist destinations. The Costa del Sol makes a warm welcome to over a
couple of million tourists a year who collect their luggage from the carousels at Malaga airport, jump in their hire cars or taxis and make
the journey to Costa del Sol villas for
the start of their Spanish holidays.

Our Costa del Sol holiday villas are in an incredible array of resorts - Mention Nerja and you immediately think that
this most eastern tip of Malaga's Costa del Sol stands out as being different from the rest of the coast. Nerja is the perfect place to
relax and enjoy beaches or you can go with the flow of this modern resort, yet still delight in its charm and character. 'The Balcony of Europe', in
Nerja, a promenade reaching out over the Mediterranean, offers stunning panoramic sights of the coast and mountains. The top of the list for sights to
see has got to go to the Caves of Nerja – home to 'wow' stalactites and old cave paintings – you can just picture 'Fred, Wilma and Pebbles' here! If
you like walking, exploring Nerja will give you the chance to view unspoilt and varied scenery – the countryside here is one of the reasons
why Costa del Sol villas to rent in Nerja are a popular choice.

The seaside town of La Cala de Mijas has managed to cling to its 'Spanishness' – the bay is surrounded by a traditional fishing town and is a short distance from Marbella and Fuengirola.

Go to Marbella whilst staying in Costa del Sol holiday villas and you will be seeing one of Europe's top holiday resorts
with an interesting past dating back to Roman times. The old town blends well with the new. Walk through the Plaza los Naranjos (Orange Square) located
in the casco Antiguao (old town) during the early evening when the birds are whistling their little hearts out, before snuggling down for the night in the orange trees.

A must on Costa del Sol villa holidays is
to go to Puerto Banus. Stay in one of our Villamarinas in Puerto Banus, located in a select cul de sac development, 400 yards from the beach and only
a 15 minute leisurely stroll to Puerto Banus. Puerto Banus marina is where you will find the most luxurious yachts and cruisers against a backdrop of
expensive boutiques, shops, restaurants, nightclubs and piano bars. It's a place for posers and great to people watch and to see Bentleys, Rolls
Royces and 'I wonder how much that would set you back' sports cars gliding by. You could be lucky and spot someone famous!

Most people visit Ronda at the heart of the 'white towns' when holidaying in Costa del Sol holiday villas. Historic
Ronda is spectacularly situated amidst the mountains with a 150 foot gorge cutting the town in two. A spectacular bridge dating back to
the Roman times is well-worth a camera shot.

The family will love a fantastic day trip to Mijas Aquapark, the most popular park on the coast. Enjoy the thrills and spills of the
'catch your breath' kamikaze; be a 'surf dude' in the wave pool or have unforgetable, 'to be repeated', zooms down slides. A splashing
time will be had by all!
|
| |
|
Talking about having a splashing time, there are plenty of watersports to keep everyone happy whilst on holiday - Water skiing, ringo
and sausage rides, scuba diving, fishing trips, wakeboarding, snorkelling to name but a few, can be found in popular resorts so you
won't be short of things to do when you want a change from relaxing on the beach.

From Fuengirola, Cabopino, Benalmadena and Puerto Banus, boat trips are available, some with refreshments available and others allow you
to swim with the dolphins. Dolphins can often be seen off the coast of the Costa del Sol and it's wonderful to see them playing alongside boats.
Kids will be thrilled if they spot 'flipper'! Whichever resorts you are staying in, Costa del Sol holiday villas give you lots of
opportunities to be active.

Spain loves to party and is known for its ferias and fiestas and the Costa del Sol has its fair share. The Fiesta Del Carmen held in July
is a popular one where the image of the Virgen del Carmen is paraded around the streets in a boat decked out in flowers and then taken by
the fishermen out to sea to bless the waters. In Nerja during the week of October nearly everyone takes time off from work to help celebrate
the annual Nerja Festival (Feria de Nerja). Street parties take place; the fair comes to town, and mothers and daughters looking stunning in
their traditional flamenco dresses. Visit the tourist office to see what's happening during your stay in Costa del Sol holiday villas.
