Silvia is lovely, she collected us at the airport and bought some basics for us for the flat. The flat is clean and was perfect for our needs for a long weekend. Tips:
- local places are often closed e.g. Sunday nights / afternoons (well compared to London!) so best to check in advance
- English is not commonly understood but Silvia helped us book a cab to a restaurant and to the airport
- We got taxis from the Tryp Hotel which is very close as they have a cab rank there, we also used Tryp for Google Maps and for directing taxis back to the flat
- this is a decent good value restaurant in Malaga for lunch https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g187438-d7254037-Reviews-Doramar_Puerto-Malaga_Costa_del_Sol_Province_of_Malaga_Andalucia.html;
- Batik is a cool and trendy roof top bar; Restaurant Amador is beautiful at night and worth the trip https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g187438-d1795578-Reviews-Restaurante_Amador-Malaga_Costa_del_Sol_Province_of_Malaga_Andalucia.html
- Mijas is worth a day trip, pretty white village, we got a cab from Tryp at a fixed price of 25 EUR each way
