Antonio’s place provided spectacular accommodation and a comfortable and stylish home for our weekend break in Malaga. Antonio was very welcoming and gave us a host of useful tips on places to eat and visit during our stay – many of which we checked out and we were not disappointed!
We loved Malaga – any preconceptions about hen & stag dos or lumping it in with other Spanish holiday retreats were quickly banished after wandering around the beautiful old town taking in the architecture, tapas bars and enjoying ice cream with Pablo in Plaza de la Merced while soaking up the relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
We were also happy to stumble across a few bars selling the type of ‘craft’ beers we knew from home (Magic Rock, Amundsen) as well as discovering some that were new to us from the ‘artesanal’ scene in Spain, such as Malaga brewers Bonvivant and Malnombre, and Basqueland from the north.
Malaga is a city that knows how to celebrate itself and everything it has to offer in terms of food, culture, architecture and of course the sandy beaches where you may be visited by one of the resident parrots. Malaga was exciting and vibrant with more to be explored than we had time for in our short stay – definitely worth a return visit!
