Arantxa's home is ideal, just across from the sea. It is air conditioned and has all amenities necessary for your stay. If you are looking for a place away from normal tourist areas this is it!
Restaurants on the sea front, local ice cream parlour next door. The no 11 bus takes 30 minutes if you want to explore Malaga city. There is a Supermarket about 5 mins away up a hill. Over the pedestrian bridge to your right there is a small shop which sells bottled water. And you have to try the local Sardines they are a must!
One comment if you have issues with mobility the stairs may be a problem as they are a little bit steep.
The locals are so friendly. Communication with Arantxa was excellent. Unfortunately we did not get to meet her but her brother Jordi and his wife were most welcoming.
Would highly recommend.
