Perfect location for visiting Malaga city, the beach, historic points of interest including the castle. Worth taking the sightseeing bus which takes about 1.5 hours to get around completely but will enable you to decide what you want to explore in more detail. The apartment has air conditioning which was essential when we visited! The roof terrace is in the shade towards the end of the afternoon which was fab. A supermarket was just up the road less than 2 mins away, it sold the most amazing fresh orange juice!
Communication between us and the host has been superb and we made use of a storage area for our cases during a full day before we flew home which was literally 5-10 walk away. We recommend this central apartment and we will be back!
