Only a 5 min drive away is one of of the jewels of the Costa del Sol, the beautiful little village of Mijas, which nestles comfortably in the mountainside at 428 meters above sea level. You can wander through the narrow cobbled streets or take the path around the edge of the village to experience the magnificent, breathtaking views. Many artists and writers have made it their home, enjoying the benefits of an excellent all year round climate, without being part of the busier, more commercial coastal towns just 7 kilometres down the mountain side. Despite its huge popularity with tourists, Mijas Pueblo has somehow managed to retain much of its traditional Andalucian way of life, the locals displaying their unabashed passion for all things festive and an unmistakable relaxed 'mañana' outlook on anything that can be put off for another day. Further afield you can enjoy all of the usual beach activities in Fuengirola or Benelmadena where you will find Sea Life, Selwo Dolphin Shows, Tivili world amusement park, Fuengirola Zoo to name a few. For the golfers there is a choice of over 30 golf courses which we can offer expert advice and bookings. We recommend to maximize your sightseeing and shopping experience that you hire a car but if not there is a regular bus service between Mijas and Fuengirola just a short 5 min walk away.
